Brief Talk – Thongs, Travel, and Tan Lines with Joey

On this episode of the Brief Talk Podcast, UNB Tim sits down with Joey to talk about his journey into the world of thongs, Speedos, swimwear, and body confidence. What started with seeing go-go dancers at a club turned into a full love of bold swimwear, thong culture, and building confidence through self-expression.

Joey shares how he first experimented with thongs, the brands he loves, and how travel helped him become more comfortable wearing them publicly. From Punta Cana and Hawaii to Palm Springs and Hollywood Beach in Chicago, the conversation dives into the freedom and confidence that comes from finding the right gear and the right community.

The guys also discuss thong tan lines versus Speedo tan lines, favorite brands like Hunk, Grand Axis, N2N, MCE, and Glute God, and why bold prints and daring cuts make swimwear even more fun. Joey opens up about encouraging his boyfriend and even straight friends to try thongs for the first time — and how many end up loving them once they give them a chance.

There’s also a bigger conversation about community. Tim and Joey talk about the importance of creating spaces where guys can feel comfortable wearing what they love without judgment. From Thongers Weekend to future Free the Bulge travel ideas, this episode is all about confidence, friendship, and building a supportive community around self-expression.

If you’ve ever been curious about trying a thong, wearing a Speedo publicly, or just embracing more confidence in your own skin, this episode is for you.
