A podcast about naturism for naturists (nudism and nudists to some people) While we obviously cover issues related to nudity, naturism is about much more than being naked so we cover topics related to self-esteem, body-image, body-acceptance, and living in a more natural way.

Since her first naturist experience as part of the office team at Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park in 2022, Jessica’s involvement in naturism has grown exponentially. First by going from taking a temporary seasonal job on a whim to taking a risk in making it a full-time career; but also by going well beyond mere employment to being a dedicated activist for the values of the naturist movement. Along…

Much of the issue around nudity has to do with either being seen nude or seeing others that way. Therefore naturism for a person without sight should be easier – but it is not. Accessibility for those with disabilities is a challenge throughout the world. For those who participate in naturism, it is no easier. Most beaches are in remote and difficult to access locations.

Zipolite’s history as a surfing destination for hippies in the 60’s laid the ground work for today’s free-spirited atmosphere and acceptance of nudity. In recent years, it has become well-known for the enormously popular annual nudist festival. But within the village lies an even more interesting space known as CAMP. A place to gather, stay, and grow that is very specifically designed with “social…
Naturists have always seen the movement as one that can bring humanity together. International gatherings started in 1951 and led to the formation of the International Naturist Federation in 1953. But while we have our naturist values in common, the many languages of the world still make communicating challenging. What if there was a common language for everyone? A simple language with consistent…

Through its magazine Nude & Natural , the World Guide to Nude Beaches and Recreation , national gatherings, and advocacy efforts, TNS has united naturists, fostered public understanding, and defended rights to clothing-optional…
Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) is developing at breakneck speed. This episode goes against our normal policy of creating “evergreen” content that should stay relevant years from now. But the potential impact of A.I. on naturism is too important to ignore. ChatGPT first came out two years ago. That first version now seems primitive and various other versions of A.I. are infiltrating all aspects of…
