In this provocative and educational episode, Dr. Dallas Bragg explores harm reduction approaches to chemsex and party-and-play (PNP) culture with two Canadian harm reduction specialists. The conversation challenges traditional abstinence-only models and showcases innovative programs supporting men who have sex with men (MSM) in their substance use journeys.
Jordan Bond-Gar - Coordinator of PNP and Chemsex Initiatives at Gay Men's Sexual Health Alliance of Ontario - brings six years of experience developing community-driven harm reduction programs.

Andrew Thomas - Harm Reduction Program Specialist for Nova Scotia Health's Eastern Zone - leads research initiatives and co-founded several innovative harm reduction projects with extensive experience in sexual health and chemsex harm reduction. (The views expressed are not of Nova Scotia Health but Andrews's own as an independent contractor for Community-Based Research Centre as part of PnP Project)
Major Programs Discussed
Mild to Wild Drop-In Sessions represent a groundbreaking peer-led support model - bi-weekly Zoom meetings where men actively engaged in PNP can discuss real-life challenges without judgment. These sessions cover everything from safer slamming techniques and drug interactions to grief processing and police encounters, averaging 10-12 regular participants with specialized workshops drawing larger crowds. The program fills a crucial gap by providing community connection outside party contexts while allowing open discussion of both substance use and sexual practices - something traditional recovery groups often prohibit.
The G-Emergency Response Project addresses the life-threatening risks of GHB use through comprehensive safety education, emphasizing accurate dosing with medical syringes rather than unreliable bottle caps and responding to dangerous market changes where substances like BDO and GBL are being substituted for traditional GHB. Meanwhile, The PNP Field Guide serves as an evidence-based "Bible" for newcomers, written by community members with lived experience in a warm, non-judgmental tone that emphasizes personal agency and self-monitoring. Together, these resources respond to a crisis that has claimed at least seven lives in Toronto alone, providing practical tools for a community often excluded from traditional harm reduction services.
