The Ruckus Revival is a legendary underground show packed with uncensored acts, from jaw-dropping circus and acrobatics, to hilarious dirty haiku bouts, beat-boxers and audience-interactive mayhem in a fast-paced night of unfiltered entertainment! Winner of multiple "Best of the Bay" awards, and dubbed "consistently the most spectacular event that Oakland's ever seen" by the East Bay Express, Ruckus is the longest running variety show in the Bay Area.

Daniela Stevens (she/they) is a queer trauma-informed, certified Sex and Intimacy Coach and Tantric Sex Coach, though she thinks it's more accurate to describe herself as a Sacred Sexuality Coach inspired by tantric and taoist practices. With over 24 years of experience, she supports couples and individuals in all bodies, of all expressions, and in all dynamics to experience more sex and deeper connection with themselves and their partner(s) without pushing, forcing, avoiding, or performing.

The White Horse Bar

Hi! We’re Emma and Fin! We’re a married couple in our thirties who have been exploring non-monogamy for over a decade. Every week we interview people from across the spectrums of gender, sexuality, and relationship styles to hear their amazing stories. We hope that by giving a voice to the diverse community exploring non-monogamy that we can show people they are not alone and inspire them to embrace their true selves so that, together, we can open minds and live authentically without shame.
