I was really stoked when Sinn Sage of Sage Advice Podcast messaged me that she'd like to come onto the podcast. Sinn is a veteran of our industry, a podcaster like myself, an intellectual, an advocate. She does so much in and for the industry that I was honoured that she wanted to speak her truth on the podcast. We speak about the intersectionality of queer rights and SWer rights and how closely related they have been. The crusade against queer and trans folks is eerily similar to the...

Remember peepshows? You might've recalled that it was a thing of the past, or, if you listened to one of my earlier episodes with Sunshine McWane, you'd have been educated on the near extinction of peepshows. Well, it was to my delight to have met Ruby of Ruby's Pop Up Peepshow. As you might've guessed it, Ruby's developed a mobile version of the classic peepshow. Inspired by her many trips to Amsterdam, Ruby wanted to bring the magic and essence back from The Netherlands to Canada. After...

***TRIGGER WARNING: Mentioning of doxxing*** This is a heavier episode. I can't sugarcoat it and nor should I on such a serious topic. Doxxing is something that happens to SWers unfortunately, more often than you think. My friend, Lulu Adore, was doxxed recently by a complete stranger just a few short weeks ago. She has wanted to come out with her story to warn others that, despite being careful and private about her life, it still happened to her. Not only that, but Lulu also shares, in...

Often times, our clients like to dump on us. No, not literally (but maybe they do?!) but moreso dumping on us the woes from life, work stressors, home life, depleting marriages and more.

This week I am speaking with Clover, a FSSWer who is living with fibromyalgia. Clover opens up about how she got into sex work and how she is able to deal with such a painful, chronic illness. As we all know, sex work can be a very viable choice for those who live with a disability, due to its accessibility and flexibility with scheduling. Clover's disease causes a lot of pain to her so she's had to cancel on clients in the past before. She's advertised her illness on her booking site and...

I've always wanted to do an episode on arrangements. Yes, I am very touchy when it comes to sugar babying and arrangements because I have thoughts on the topic (one day there'll be an episode this, I promise) so when Emily Monroe popped into my feed, I was like, "it's time". Emily is a FSSWer based in NYC and has had a ton of experience when it comes to both semi-exclusive and exclusive arrangements. While it may be the ultimate goal to exclusive, Emily heeds on how this might not be a...

We've got an interesting take on today's episode. I was inspired by a recent blog post by fellow content creator and FSSWer, McKenna King, on anon accounts. If you're unaware of what anon accounts are, they are anonymous accounts usually on Twitter/X which are used for sharing memes, satire, and overall, lightheartedness. On the flip side, it can be used to share some hard truths and vulnerabilities in the industry. Because our industry is so nuanced, we need a natural release, an outlet of...
