Welcome our first guest - Maggie McMuffin! Sex worker, performer, and writer extraordinaire. Get wrecked over the many iterations of known "superpowered whackadoos" Harley Quinn & The Joker. 

Content Warnings: This episode features in-depth discussion of "darkfic" and kink. The episode focuses on consensual enjoyment of kink and fandom, though the fan content itself may be involve dubious consent between the characters. We also discuss experiences as underage people participating in fandom. Specific topics include (but are not limited to):

• Discussion of dubcon and noncon themes in fanfiction
• Discussion of physical and emotional abuse of fictional characters, and cycles of abuse in real life
• Discussion of rack play 
• Description of a consensual waterboarding kink scene (26:05 - 27:33)
• Brief mention of fantasy wound f*cking and knife play (which you should not try at home)

Disclaimer: The hosts and guest are aware of abuse as a theme in the Harley/Joker pairing. Our discussion does not seek to make light of abusive relationships, but to acknowledge the value of abuse narratives in fanfiction.
