Our show features adult themes, language, and descriptions of sexual acts and desires. If you're under 18, this is not the show for you. The ideas and opinions expressed are those of the speaker only and not of any company or entity, and should not be considered professional advice. Now, let's stimulate your mind. Welcome back everyone. We are your host, Tori Kis. And Steve Kis. And today we're talking about our day four on the Bliss Cruise in November 2024. And it started off sleeping and getting breakfast and hitting the hot tub to relax our sore bodies. So yeah, that's right. We went and did the breakfast buffet. On the cruise ship, the breakfast buffet is essentially the same kind of breakfast every day. And so you know what you're going to get. You've got the omelette station, you've got eggs, you've got bacon, you've got different kinds of sausages. There's always biscuits and gravy. Anything you can generally think of for breakfast, they have it. And it's at the end of the ship where you have windows all around the dining room, so you have views of wherever, port your end or if you're at sea. So it's just a spectacular way to wake up. And while we were there, well actually, then we went over to the hot tub to relax our bodies just for a little while. The hot tub wasn't quite as hot as I wish it was, but that's fine. We did have an appointment to meet with another podcast couple, Carolyn Dave of the Sexy Lifestyle. So we went over and met with them, recorded an episode, and so stay tuned over at the Sexy Lifestyle podcast to hear Torian Steve interview. The Torian Steve interview. I don't know when they're going to release that. They typically are about two to three months in advance. So check back maybe in January. Yep, let's see, after we recorded the podcast and we had recovered our legs in the hot tub from the Strenuous Hiking we had done the day before, we high-telled it back to the room and decided that we were not in an ashamed, performed sexual activities in the benefit of other humans. So we decided to postpone an 11 a.m. plate eight we had made the day before because we just weren't ready for- We want to represent our best self and we don't want to do anything half-assed. So we decided to go ahead and postpone that plate date appointment which is fantastic. You want some Yulusa? That's fine. But there was a lesbian couple that is exploring their sexuality and they were curious about meeting up with us. We had Mexican for lunch. Oh, we will have technically speaking after the podcast we went off to meet the lesbians, right? No, we had Mexican right before. My day is a blur already. Yeah, your day is all confused. So the Mexican was yummy. I had a case of Dia. Yeah, I'm definitely going to do the Mexican again today. That was really good. And then we, it was a port day at Labidi. We had been at Labidi a couple of times already. There was a pool party going on, people in the hot tub. We were busy, honestly. It was from podcasting to lunch to finding the lesbian couple to chat chatting with them and then we met with friends in the same bar. So that pivoted for about two hours. We got it. So yeah, there was the lesbian couple we decided to meet up with on the ship. We met them at one of the lounges that was low volume. So there was a good vibe area. And we just wanted to ask them some questions about their relationship, their experience in the lifestyle. We had assumed that there were a lesbian couple, but it turns out they were both by. Yes, they were in a 20 year relationship with each other, but they're both very enthusiastically. One was more by them the other. Yeah, they're enthusiastically dick happy though. So they do enjoy some big dick energy. Yes, and they told me that there's a lady's only playroom in one of the smaller playroom venues here. So I told them, oh, really? Okay, we'll all have to meet you there later. So that is what I did later on in the day. So stay tuned. The other episode we will touch on that. So after we met with that couple, there was friends from our hometown that happened to jump into that lounge area. And we just kind of mosey on over to their table and said, we called us over. We didn't mosey over. They called us over. We mosey. Yeah. Because you played with them the night before and they were enthusiastically wanting to chat. So we chatted with them. We had some great conversation, great connection. It had been a while since we had seen them being at home. And then, you know, it was interesting. It was great because they opened up and we all actually opened up to having vulnerable conversations with each other about unrelated things, but things that kind of involved the lifestyle that we're just not going to get into. But it was really great in connection, bond forming conversation. It kind of did bring us closer together as all friends. So, you know what that's a common trend that I've noticed on this bliss crew, Steve. We go on the bliss crews to swing and to be with like-minded people. But then in the end, we get grow closer together and we become more connected as a couple. And then also, if you come with friends, hopefully for us at least, we are closer to our friends now on a more emotional level or, you know, vulnerability level. Yeah. I love that connection. Another thing we tried, you know, when we started this crew, we thought we were going to walk all the floors and see all the doors that were decorated on the cruise ship. I think we've done two floors so far. We thought we were going to start from the top down. To walk a floor, it's a long ass walk. Yeah, this ship is, what is it? 1188 feet in one indirect in length. I have no idea. There's a board in the promenade that scrolls just like a stock market scroll, you know, like the digital. And it says stats and it says how many people are on board, how long the ship is. Yeah, it scrolls all the useless information you'll never need. A trivia. A trivia information about the ship. Yeah, I think the ship is 1188 feet long. And so when you're walking the ship looking at doors, checking out pictures and little select cards and writing little notes on the, it takes time. And Steve and I like to use the stairs instead of the elevator most of the time. So those stairs are getting to us as well. You know, one thing I noticed is when you walk the halls and you look at people's doors, some people's doors are highly decorated, but they still have no notes or messages from people. Why do you think that some doors have messages, lots of messages and some don't? What do you think that it? Well, part of it could be the participation in chats on like telegram or Facebook messenger. Yeah, that's true. Going to meetups and get them telling people your room number or giving select cards that way. I think select cards probably has a big impact on that as well. Definitely. I think if you're more outgoing and you're engaging to other people in conversations, you're more likely to have people that are going to seek out and look for you on the ship and want to spend more time with you. So if you're just kind of quiet, not engaging others and just kind of keeping it to yourself, of course your door is going to be blank because no one really knows you. The reason why I even bring this topic up is someone was kind of whining that no one was leaving messages on their door. Right. One of the doors across from us, we overheard a conversation through the hall because you know, we're in a cruise ship. The doors aren't that thick and they were having a little whiny moment and it was within ear shot. They were upset that no one was writing on their door and they were attractive couple, but there's no picture on their door. It's just a dry race board. So if anyone's walking through how they know what you look like. Right. So that's another thing of it. A lot of people are walking through the hallway looking at doors. Most of them are decorated. Most of the doors have a picture of the couple that are in the room. And if someone is attracted to that picture or that couple, they'll be like, "Hey, like your picture," or "We like the vibes on your door." Why don't you come check out ours if you feel the same? Why don't we meet up somewhere at a lounge and get together and vibe? If you just leave your name on the door, no one's going to make a connection with your name and want to meet up with you later. And better, yeah, if you can include a tidbit of something you're into in your decoration of the door. So we found unicorns on a door and she was like, "Oh, there's unicorns over here." So we went over and looked and we got to write a little note on the board and then they came over to our door and checked out our pictures and wrote a little note. So then now we're playing note tags or something. Yeah, we're definitely playing note tags. But that's fun. But that's fun. We don't know if we're going to ever meet that person. Exactly. But it's fun either way. We've been note tagging each other for a few days on the ship. If we ever meet, we're going to be laughing about that for the first 10 minutes in our conversation and I know, no doubt. There's another door that has a neon sign that says Hot Wife. And so obviously we know she's a Hot Wife that's in that cabin. There's no picture of her on that one, but there's just a neon sign. And again, if you're listening to our podcast for the first time and you don't know what Hot Wife is, Hot Wife is a woman that goes out and plays either with or in front of her husband. And her husband usually watches, perhaps plays with the wife, but he doesn't generally get involved with other women. So it's not completely a full swap. It's just mostly the wife playing. Right. And so that is called a Hot Wife. After lunch, we met up at the bar, the lesbian couple, chatted with them, got some information, and I agreed to meet them at the lady's only play room. We pivoted over to our friends and then after that, oh yeah, we thought we were going to have dining reservations because I made a couple specialty dining, but my days were flopped because when you're cruising, you kind of forget what day it is. And so my bad excuse me, I'm so sorry, I've totally had my days mixed up. So then we were getting ready to go to the specialty dining location and realized that our dining is not reserved for today. Which was good because we also realized we were very thankful because at that time, we just were not ready to eat. And it was one of those specialty dining words like $60 per person. So you want to get your money's worth, but you want to go hungry. At least that's my frame of mind. Yeah, if we were going to eat, it would have been like three bites and we would have had a meal. I'm like, I'm done. So at that point, we went to the room and put on our- Got ready for glow nights. Yes, we did. So we brought multiple outfits just in case like we wanted to change clothes number one. We were going to maybe have something more comfortable, something more in tune with the 80s. So I put on a neon yellow, no, is it yellow or green? It was a neon yellow green. Yeah, like a neon yellow green club dress and he has matching color shorts and he has suspenders that light up. We also have light up sneakers. Yep, light up sneakers. Those were hits as well as my suspenders in my amazing 80s dance moves. And so right about that time when we left our cabin from getting ready, it was time for me to go to the ladies only playroom. So we separated. And if you've listened to our previous episodes about being on the blows cruise, when we separate, we will tell each other what happened when we get back together live on the recording. So we get the actual wall reaction of our spouse. So- So I don't know what my wife did while we were separated and she doesn't know what I did when we were separated. But I will say we were not separated very long. So let's dive in so we can then talk about my favorite part. Go. So we left the cabin and I went to the ladies only playroom. I had a beverage. I had just bought a beverage from the bar and it was full. You cannot bring beverages in. So I decided to use the excuse of drinking my beverage and not going in because I didn't want to get rid of my beverage. So I stood outside the playroom with single guys and my excuse was that I wasn't going in because I had to drink my drink but I was honestly intimidated. What were you intimidated about? So I'm an omnisexual. So many sexual people are open to all genders. Most people think that's pansexual but pansexual. Yes, they're open to all genders. However, they're gender blind. I am not gender blind but I am open to all genders. I am also asexual. So asexual is a spectrum. Asexual people are not sexually attracted to anybody and this where I am on the spectrum fluctuate. So depending on where I am, if there's a nice vibe, I'll be down to play. I don't care what gender you are. Let's play. I wanted to go to the ladies on the playroom, vibe it out so you was happening in there. But when I got to the doorway, it was hard. It was so hard to enter. I couldn't do it for a while. So I just kind of overlooked the balcony looking down to the promenade and just sipping my drink. As some single guys came over and talked to me, eventually I got the nerve to go inside. So that it was about 10 minutes and I was thinking maybe I won't even go inside. But I was excited. No, I need to go inside. Let's see if I can spend five minutes inside. It might not be so scary. I don't know why I was intimidated. I just was. So I go inside and it was on one hand, I can see how it was passionate and central inside. But that wasn't my vibe that I was receptive to. So to me, I just, I did a walk through. Didn't see anyone that I recognized and decided to leave. Okay. And I like pianists as better. I just do. It's just my thing. So then I decided, you know what? I'm going to go down to the promenade where the glow party was happening at that time because it didn't end up moving. And when I went down there, I immediately saw Steve. You immediately saw me? I literally immediately saw you. And I decided, you know, let me just see if I can be a wall flower and you can walk straight by and I'll just stare at him and stalk him for a minute. You saw me. So we were, we were separated for all of 20 minutes at most. Well I was gone. What did you do? Oh boy. You probably just walked through the promenade where the glow party was at and the dancers, right? That's exactly what happened. So 20 minutes. It wasn't, yeah, it wasn't that long. So I went, I went back to the room. I dropped off the bag I was carrying, which had all kinds of goodies in it and I figured, you know, if I was going to get in any kind of trouble, I'll just come back to the room and pick the bag up. And he's, when he says bag with goodies, he's talking about a little play bag. So like we have some, loob condoms, vagina wipes, yeah, scent things, hairbrush for me, all kinds of stuff, hair ties for unexpected and unannounced blow jobs, yeah, things like that. All kinds of stuff. So drop the play bag off. I went to a room where our friends were located, knocked on the door. Let's see if they were there. They had already vacated the room. So I then went down to deck six where the upper floor of the glow party was located. I just kind of watched from the balcony for a little while. Overlooking the, overlooking the lower floor of deck five where there is all this glow party, people dancing, there's music, there's a stage with dancers going on, went down to the deck five and I was going to, I made it a point, I was going to wander through the entire crowd from one deck of the prominent, or one side of the prominent to the other side of the prominent. That took a little while because everyone was so crowded together. And so by the time I made it to the other side, I was like, woo, I made it. And then I looked over to the right and there my wife was standing next to a huge pillar. Yep. And that's amazing because like there's 6,000 people on this ship. So yes, for example, there's someone on telegram. She looks gorgeous. She's got red hair. I've been looking for her on this ship since we boarded just for a random chance encounter. I am pretty sure I saw her once. My husband has a thing for redheads. I really do. I'm pretty sure I saw her once when we were at the main dining hall. In fact, I know I did. And then I was like, okay, well, I can visually confirm that she's here, but it would have been really weird. If I stood up in the middle of the dining hall and ran over to give her my slick card, that would have been. That would have been creepy. So I was like, all right, I'll see her again at some point on the ship, but even after attempting and looking like you just, there's 6,000 people, you just don't, it's not easy just to find someone and it's really, really, really wonderful that after all of five minutes, we found it. We just stumbled upon each other. I'll always find you. I'll always find you. Yeah, that kind of thing was going on. The universe brought you to me. Yep. I mean, for real though, there's something to that. So at that point, we decided we wanted to watch the little, the glow show that was happening. It wasn't a little by any means. That's what she said. And we wanted to be up high the balcony. So we went up back up to where he was at and we overlooked the, we were people watching, basically. Yeah, people watchers and then we did that for a little while. Well, I guess it was like four minutes because as soon as I started to dance, that's when they finished their little dance thing and everyone started shuffling out to the boardwalk. So we were, and that was the opposite end of the cruise ship than we were. So we decided, you know, let's go ahead and see what they're doing. So the promenade is essentially an indoor shopping street is what it is. And it's got an equal number of shops and restaurants and lounges and bars and that kind of thing. The boardwalk is the outdoor version of the same thing. There's a carousel, a hot dog stand, there's a bar, journey rockets. There's also a aqua theater that they covered up the aqua area and made it a dance floor. And it was black lights everywhere. Everything was glowing. The spot lights were huge black lights. So everyone was glowing. Great music out there, EDM music, I think, right? Yep. And so that dance floor was, if you, it was even more jammed than the promenade had been. So we definitely got up onto the second floor and then overwatched the dance floor from above. And we got into the music vibes and we just started dancing on that balcony just me and her. Honestly, that was my highlight. We started getting a lot of viewers from below pointing at us and waving and that was fun. It was, it was fricking fantastic. It was great. I loved that particular part of the night. Definitely driving to the music. Then we decided we were going to just peel away. Before we peel away, I wanted to just point out anyone who's curious about dressing up for a glow party. When it comes to the neon colors, the number one color people wore is yellow, green neon. The second color people wore, I would say, is like a pink. White pink. White. I didn't see very much orange. I don't think I saw any neon blue. So if you want to stand out and you have to get a costume for a neon party, orange and blue I think are the most rare that I saw. Yellow and green most popular. Yellow and green is most popular. So if you want to fit in, that's what you go with. But I got it. I was talking to my wife last night about it as like every time I saw a woman wearing all pink, like my eyes just kind of diverted over and it was like she didn't even have to be very attractive. I don't know what it is about pink and maybe it's just me, but I think pink is like eye catching. I think she also had a neon wig as well. When we decided to peel away from the glow party, we were sweating from head to tail, and the jumping for half an hour. Yeah, dancing nonstop for half hour to an hour. We walked to the other end of the ship, stood in a breezeway, cooled off, and then we decided we were going to go, is that when we decided we were going to go to the hot tub? We walked on the walking trail, actually. Yeah, I know that. And yeah, that's when we walked to the other side of the breezeway. But is that when we decided to go to the hot tub? Let me think about this. It was just 10 hours ago. She would think we would remember. Yeah, I do believe at that point we went to the hot tub to relax our legs and bodies and start to wind down. Of course, it's a cruise ship full of 6,000 people. Horned people. Yeah, very horny people. The hot tubs were all being utilized. And so when we thought we were going to get away and have some quiet time at a hot tub, that wasn't going to happen. We knew that wasn't going to happen. The moment we got settled into the hot tub, some couple came over and it wasn't, of course, we just, I don't know, in our own minds, we just wanted a little separation from everybody because we were starting to get our, into our fields for each other and we were starting to have a deeper emotional connection. And then another couple, and it wasn't necessarily unwelcome. It was just another couple came over and... Wanted to be chatty and connect. Yeah, they just wanted to. That's okay. We gave them some attention. Yeah, we certainly did. We talked to them for a little while. We got to know each other for a little bit and then eventually they left and we were able to focus on each other. And so that just kind of continued to... Until they closed the hot tub. Yeah, that was like, what do you mean it's closed? They kicked us out. They kicked us out. They said you have to go to the other hot tub on the other half of the ship now and it was like, boo. So we walked up to the very top deck and decided to moon, what is it called? Sunbathe. Moonbathe. Moonbathe, apparently, is a thing. It's a thing for me. And we did that for a little while. I got us... I went and got us some snack food from the dining hall. But at this point it was almost 2am. Yeah, it's good to mention that. So at 2am, we barely ate dinner. I went and got us some snack food from the dining hall. Right, snack. And we had to go to the lounge where we found like this little nook where we could be kind of alone and just move. We just spent time together. We talked, we reminisced about the crews. We talked about what was the favorite parts. We talked about our marriage and our life together and how we've grown. It was a great connecting moment. During the night we had sent a couple like, you know, one-off messages to people to see if there was anyone interested. I got to tell you at 2am on glow party night, I would say everyone under the age of 50 was still up and popping. Like every other night on the cruise ship, I would say not even 30% of the ship is still awake. On glow night, 50% to 60% of the ship is still awake. I think it's considered the main party night of the ship. And it's right in the middle of the cruise week, so that makes sense. Like the ship was still highly active at two. I got messages. Oh, be. I have to interrupt you. Okay. At some point, I think this was right before we went to the hot tub at the very end. Came back to our cabin, sat on our balcony completely turned off the lights, so because we have a balcony cabin. And so we could see out into the ocean and kind of decompress from the glow party. And then we went back out to the hot tub. And when we were out there with the lights out, which is watching the stars, I went down on you and because we were naked and gave you some oral on the balcony. Mm-hmm. Yeah, you liked that. I did. We wanted to have sex, but we knew. We knew if we were going to have sex, we were just going to fall asleep. Yeah. So we knew if we had sex, we were going to crash and we didn't want to crash. We wanted the night to keep going. It was such a great night. We didn't want to end it yet. So we were like, okay, let's go to the hot tub. Okay, let's go to the sun deck and moon bath. Okay, let's, I don't want to end the night. Yeah, I'm getting tired. I don't want to. When we decided to head back to our room from moon bathing, such a weird thing to say. That's when we started getting messages from people about, hey, what are you doing? Let's link up. Let's go play together. Let's meet in the play room. Let's do this. Let's do that. And I was like, why did you wait until like 2.20 AM to start reaching out? It was too late for us. We decided just to stick together, crawl the door, crawl the door back, focus on each other. Cats in my motion all sex. Yeah, we had some emotional, crazy sex. And then, and then I think I promptly fell asleep. You did something that you don't normally do. What was that? When you orgasmed, you made eye contact with me the whole time. Oh, yeah. I like that. I remember doing that. That was deep. No, that was good. So deep. So, we are now on day five on the cruise ship and we are parking. At sea all day long. At sea we're getting ready to head over to get some breakfast. No, we're not going to say what we're doing today. You have to stay tuned for next episode. It is going to be a good one. So we've got some plans, good plans today. We're going to make some content today. We're not talking about it. I can talk to get them interested for... Stay tuned. Stay tuning to the next episode because we're going to talk about some spicy content we're going to make today. And we're already got plans with other people later in the evening.
