×Nobody likes rejection, piercers especially. Lola and Ryan discuss a hard truth, sometimes piercings don't work out.

Lola Slider is beautiful, smart and quite abrasive to most of her fellow piercers. Soon Lola crosses paths with handsome new arrival Ryan Ouellette. Lola may let her guard down enough to fall for the effortlessly charming Ryan. But seriously folks, we made an episode where we list 10 things we love about piercing. Ryan made a video about conch piercings, it showcases four different examples of piercing and focuses heavily on tissue bracing methods. Check it out at www.patreon.com/ryanpba .…

Lola and Ryan have a conversation based on another submitted question "how do you give feedback to jewelry companies?". Its a tricky subject, we try to discuss it without mysteriously vanishing. We also talk about gauge size and what logic might go into selecting what you use. Interested in paired tongue piercings? Ryan has a new video for you at www.patreon.com/com .

Lola and Ryan kick off 2025 by talking about diversifying your platform. With the temporary (and possibly future) loss of tiktok many piercers learned the risks of focusing on one platform. We also answer a submitted question "how do you manage clients who aren't naughty enough to fire, but still make you dread their appointment?". We also talk about the 2025 conferences we'll be attending, and a short chat about Christina piercings. If you're interested in more Christina piercing info Ryan has a newly published video on the subject available at www.patreon.com/ryanpba .

Cozmo returns 111 episodes later. Cozmo is a key volunteer behind the scenes of the Association of Professional Piercers. We talk about his work on the APP's membership committee, as an instructor with a focus on his classes covering bedside manner and studio security, and his work as a mentor. If you're looking for more Cozmo content you can check out his @DailyCozWerks channel on youtube and the same name on IG, where Cozmo visits different coffee shops on his motorcycle (neat!).

Look out America, Lola is coming! It took over a year of paperwork to get it done, but Lola has a work visa to pierce in the United States. Ryan and Lola talk about the process and what the future holds. We also talk about why Lola declined a nomination for the APP board of directors election, and its not just because she's busy.

Shawn Porter has been a key figure in the body modification world for decades. I first met Shawn through BME in the early 2000s and I have watched his creative influence on the industry ever since. Today, Shawn publishes body modification history through his Sacred Debris website and various print projects. 2024 was the year of Shawn saying yes to projects he may have turned down in the past; conferences, public speaking, and podcasts. So I jumped at the opportunity to have Shawn come on the show, I hope you enjoy what we recorded. We talk about Shawn's teenage entry into the body modification world through his contact with pioneer Jack Yount, then we transition into the BMEZINE years, MODCON, Scar Wars, and much more. Content Warning: graphic explicit conversations about genital piercing and modification, heavy body modification work, friends who have passed away, and extensive use of the word "cock".

This Piercing Wizard Podcast was recorded in front of a live studio audience ...at the 2024 UKAPP conference. Ryan and Lola invited previous guests Helen Houghton of Holier Than Thou Manchester and J'son D'souza of J'vaire Mumbai for a conversation about intimate piercing. As piercers we can offer simple piercings that a client gets for simple reasons, but we can also get requests that carry a deep meaning and heavy responsibility. Our panel talks about intimate work and how it differs from more visible work, the experience we try to offer to our clients, and our mentality when offering it.…

Lola came up with a new idea for an episode, her and Ryan interview each other with surprise questions for the other. Neither of us knew the questions ahead of time, so the conversations they spark are a mix of informative and silly. Enjoy as we talk about piercing techniques, our least favorite things, and the days of piercing past. Oh, and Lola would like you to know that she came up with an ice cream flavor that Ben + Jerry's can name after her, Pierce-stacchio.

This episode of the PWP was recorded at the BMXNET 2024 conference in Berlin. Lola and Ryan welcome back Kevin Jump to talk about spirituality in the piercing studio. Is it a key part of what we do? Is it silly and unnecessary? Ryan received an email from a listener who felt out of touch with the type of spirituality you sometimes hear piercers talking about. It sparked an interesting conversation about ritual and its place in the modern piercing industry. New content keeps coming at www.patreon.com/ryanpba .

Do you pierce minors? Why, or why not? We kick off this episode with a discussion about piercing minors, and some factors that might go into deciding the issue in your studio. Liability is a word I want piercers to think about from time to time. What kind of liabilities come up when piercing a minor? How can we minimize our exposure to liability in our practices? I also talk about the need for reprocessing in studios, or at least proper education about safe reprocessing, even in a disposable shop. You can watch my new video about piercing a tragus from the front to the back, with multiple video demonstrations going back over 8 years!

How well do you fail? Bethrah Szumski, former APP president, former APP secretary, studio owner, and all around boss comes back to the show. I wanted to make episode 250 (thank you, by the way) special, and that meant having a guest with something to say. Admittedly we didn't have much of a plan going in to this one. Bethrah was kind in offering to record a conversation shortly after she arrived to Las Vegas for the 2024 APP conference. Bethrah has always been someone who will just tell it like it is. Content warning, we will talk about mental health and therapy, we'll talk about the current economy and how it is strangling many shops, and we'll talk about a few other things that loosely fit into the "career goals" column. I have other various stuff to promote, but just go to www.ryanpba.com for that. New videos, new merch, new class announcements, yadda yadda.…

Please be aware this episode ends with a memorial to Canadian piercer Deacon Matheson who recently passed. Starting at 46:00 will be some thoughts from Ryan and Lola about mental health. Starting at 57:30 there will be some highlights from episode 232 featuring Deacon's voice. The majority of this episode will be Ryan and Lola talking about their regular piercer bullsh*t. Walk ins are starting to creep back in to both of our studios. We talk about what lead us to give walk ins another chance after settling in to an appointment-only comfort zone. We also talk about how to give and receive constructive critiques. Its not as easy (or as common) as you might hope. You're probably going to hear us being a bit more open about mental health issues throughout future episodes. Like any health and safety issue in piercing industry, mental health is easier to manage with more information.

I was really happy to have been invited to teach at the first Australasian United Professional Piercers (AUPP) conference in Sydney, Australia. While I was there I sat down with Suzanne Hallett, from the AUPP's board of directors, and one of the event's key organizers. We talk about how a local organization can push standards higher in ways that might not be feasible on a global scale. The AUPP's first conference was an impressive event that brough piercers together with excellent classes, a vendor showcase area, and fun social moments. I also talk to Suzanne about her career success and how she went from being a staff member at a well known and respected studio, to becoming its owner. While I was in Sydney I was finishing up a video featuring Lola Slider narrating her bridge piercing methods and showing an example of both clamp, and no-clamp bridge piercing.
