Introducing Rachel, my new cohost! In this first episode of the new year (we're calling this season two), we discuss fetishes. Rachel, who is not a former porn star (although she could be if she wanted to, HAY GIRL!), asks some excellent probing questions about fetish work in the porn industry. We get a little existential. Then we talk a lot about boobs, feet, noises Rachel hates, and vore (nomnomnom).

Mental health is a very real concern for sex workers. It was for me (still is!). So how does the porn industry care for the mental health of its performers? ... Well, uh, it kinda doesn't. Performers and their advocates have started to gather their own mental health resources. TRIGGER/CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses sensitive subjects such as mental health, self harm, sexual abuse, and substance abuse. Please listen with care, and if anything I mention makes you feel uneasy, please practice self care!
