The Sanctuary of Sin Podcast
Hosted by Jayson and Rebecca (Emily Sin), The Sanctuary of Sin is a sex-positive, kink-focused, and unapologetically queer podcast exploring the worlds of BDSM, sex work, feminism, witchcraft, and all things delectably sinful.
With over a decade of experience as switches, we bring firsthand knowledge, honest reviews, and engaging discussions to the table— unpacking the roots of so-called “sins,” confronting the shame that surrounds them, and celebrating the ways our communities reclaim power through pleasure. From the psychology of dominance to the history of moral panics, we’re here to question it all.
Alongside these deep dives, we’ll keep you in the loop with reviews of the UK’s wildest events, shoutouts to the creatives and kinksters making waves, and the latest juicy news from the queer, kink, and sex positive scenes.
This podcast is a place for education, discussion, and community—where ‘sin’ isn’t shameful, but something to be embraced, explored, and understood. Welcome to The Sanctuary of Sin!

E11: Wrath - The Demonisation of Women’s Rage & Sexuality Part 3
In the final part of our deep dive into Wrath: The Demonisation of Women’s Rage & Sexuality, we explore the twisted modern history of hysteria, uterine fury, and so-called nymphomania. This week, we trace how women’s pain, desire, and defiance were pathologised—from Church-led exorcisms to "pelvic massages" at the hands of midwives and early physicians.
We unpack the invention of the vibrator as a tool of medical control, Freud’s maddening theories on penis envy and repressed sexuality, and the bizarre phenomenon of World War II soldiers weaponising “hysterical” limbs to escape the frontlines. This episode uncovers how the legacy of hysteria continues to haunt modern medicine, sexuality, and the ways we understand feminine power.
