Brittany Wilson, Brand Manager of The Dungeon Store was a guest on the 69 Whiskey Podcast, and discussed life in the family business, talked about pleasure products and gave great advice for beginners on how to be a part of the BDSM lifestyle.
69 Whiskey started as a college radio show by military veteran Eric “Dollar Store Dom” Weinstein and Co-host Motorboatin’ Matt. Once restrained by rules and boundaries, the show now comes to listeners raw, uncensored and unapologetic. Eric and Matt cover topics from drink recipes, entertainment, and everyone’s favorite positions.
Wilson has been with The Dungeon Store for over eight years. The Dungeon Store is a curated collection of bondage gear and fetish toys, mostly made in the United States by professionals in the BDSM community. Wilson and The Dungeon Store staff recently celebrated their two AVN award nominations and a partnership with Liberator sex furniture. She had quite a few stories, including challenges when it comes to traveling with kinky products.
“I fly with floggers,” said Wilson with pride. “Rule of thumb, as a vendor, is you fly Southwest. They’ve got the best baggage policy, and you put the heaviest stuff in your carry-on because that never gets weighed… Every single flogger, in the handle, had a wooden dowel, with a screw in the top. And they X-rayed it, and said ‘Oh! there’s screws in the top, so, these are weapons and you’ll have to throw them away… ‘I’m not throwing out 15 thousand dollars worth of my potential revenue… ‘In my head, I’m like, ‘How is a handful of screws used to hijack a plane? I’m going to do what? Throw them at flight attendants?’ I don’t understand…”
Wilson will be busy this weekend as The Dungeon Store will have tables at Kinkybeats at Baltimore Playhouse, Naughty Noel at Studio 58 in Pennsylvania, CC Fetish Fair in South Carolina, and Exxxotica DC at the Dulles Expo Center in Virginia.
