From Educators to Event Curators: The Ticket4Play Story
For over a decade, we’ve been your trusted guides in the lifestyle as the hosts of Swinger University, the leading podcast for shame-free, trauma-informed relationship education. With hundreds of episodes, millions of downloads, and a thriving community across 15+ platforms, we’ve heard one frustration repeatedly:
“Why can’t I find quality events in one place?”
That’s why we created Ticket4Play.
Meet Your Curators: Ed & Phoebe
Phoebe
With a BA in Communications and a minor in Small Group and Personal Dynamics, Phoebe brings decades of expertise to everything we do. She is the researcher and curator behind Swinger University, as well as the marketing guru and project manager. Her efficiency and deep understanding of the community drives her desire to continually provide a safe and easy way for people to connect on Ticket4Play.
Ed
As the technical wizard behind Swinger University, Ed handles everything you see and hear—from recording and editing our podcast to designing user experiences that actually work. With a background in voice-over work, public speaking, and website design and development, he built Ticket4Play to solve a real problem: making event discovery as seamless as possible. Every feature is designed with your experience in mind.
Why We Built Ticket4Play
Through our 13 years of experience in the lifestyle we’ve:
- Attended dozens of events across the country and internationally
- Connected with hundreds of promoters, resort owners, and event organizers
- Learned exactly what makes events successful (and what red flags to watch for)
- Built relationships with the most reputable names in the lifestyle
We realized our decade of experience could serve the community in a new way: by creating a trusted central hub where you can discover vetted events without the endless searching.

How We Make Money
Ticket4Play features events in two ways:
- Promoter Listings: Independent event organizers list their own events on our platform. We vet each organizer but don’t earn commissions from these bookings.
- Featured Events: We personally research and list select events we recommend. Some of these have affiliate relationships where we earn a commission when you book. This costs you nothing extra.
Both types of listings go through our careful vetting process. This mixed model allows us to keep our platform free while maintaining editorial independence – we only feature events we genuinely trust, whether we earn from them or not.
