Every piercing starts out with a little risk. The risks of our every day piercings can be reduced through education and experience, but what about when we're trying something new or trendy? Lola and Ryan discuss the risks that may come with rare piercings, piercing trends, or just experimentation and creativity. Celebrity finger piercings, Austin bar piercings (I didn't know what that was either its ok), and kitten fangs. Where is the line between risk and harm, and how close do we get as professional piercers? We also discuss our recent trip to Poland for a conference, and our future teaching plans.
Time is running out to watch Lola Slider's "Size Matters: jewellery sizing theory" webinar at www.patreon.com/ryanpba. Watch it before the end of September 2025 or you'll miss out. You can also check out Ryan's new video about Austin Bar piercings, and much more on demand.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
