John is a man in his mid-30's who has only ever been with sex workers, and he has complicated feelings about it: on the one hand, keeping sexual intimacy transactional is much simpler for him - it takes a lot of the work out of people-ing, something that is especially draining for him because he has Aspberger Syndrome. On the other hand, the illegality of being a John has led him to some pretty dark and dangerous places. We talk about his first time, the mental health and trauma struggles that keep him from trying to establish more traditional relationships, and how criminalization makes getting one's needs met more dangerous and damaging for all parties involved.

In February 2020, prolific serial rapist and predator Jose Torres, AKA "Joey The Player" was arrested in Boston, MA and charged in federal court with three counts of Coercion and Enticement.

Mistress Ashley Paige is a self-described Black Alpha Female, smut maker and Femme Daddy, and is described by me as a titilatingly terrifying Dominatrix, outstanding speaker and activist, and stone cold fox. I really enjoyed getting to know Paige better over the course of this conversation; she has an incredible story as a queer kid who started out doing street-based survival sex work, and who has dedicated her life and success to lifting up and bringing resources and opportunities to the people around her. Paige and I spoke from our respective quarantines about family dynamics, forgiveness, coming out and coming up, and why she's turning into the Robin Hood of women's wellness.  All In A Day's (Sex) Work is produced by Blair Hopkins and brought to you in part by SWOP-Behind Bars.

The arc of Amy Taylor's journey in the adult industry is wild: She started out as a broke student, achieved incredible success as an independent escort, fell victim to a high-profile industry predator who outed and stalked her before going to prison for attempting to hire someone to kill her, bravely returned to work and has since settled into what she considers to be a pre-retirement routine with some favorite regulars, with whom she's weathering the world's current obstacles. Amy's clientele tends toward the upper crust. She has spent much of her 20 year career jet-setting with captains of industry. It was fascinating to talk with her about the nuances of her target demographics' needs, as well as how she reconciles her sense of social responsibility with her professional responsibility to “keep sweet”.

Pandora's Box: Nicole Gilliland filed a Title IX lawsuit against Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) when it became clear she was being run out of the nursing program due to her previous career in porn. Since filing, SWOCC has fought back with the full force of their regional influence in Coos Bay, Oregon to discourage and discredit her. Gilliland was humiliated, exiled, driven to a suicide attempt, her children were taken from her and placed with abusive extended family members. She became homeless, was harassed by law enforcement and eventually had to flee for her life. Today Gilliland joins me to talk about her ongoing case against the school, how she and her family are recovering from their journey to hell-and-back these last two years and why she refuses to quit fighting.

The Courageous Heart of Molly Morey: Molly leaned on dancing to get by after ending the relationship with her oldest child's father and discovered that she truly loved it. As a young and newly-sober mother, the opportunity to get paid to doll up and socialize was invaluable to her mental health and self esteem. Sadly, a lack of worker protections from predatory male management ran her out of the industry. Today Molly and I talk about her fond memories from that now-former life, her sadness that some scumbag sucked the wind out of her sails, and how she found meaning and joy again in harm reduction, specializing in outreach to street-based sex workers at her hometown syringe echange.

Mr. Walters Goes To Washington: Since being signed into law in 2018, SESTA/FOSTA has wreaked havoc on internet speech and done untold damage to the safety and finances of consensual adult sex workers. The law holds platforms liable for any speech that could "facilitate" prostitution, regardless of the platform's knowledge, and has multiple provisions that violate the Constitution. Walters Law Group is leading the charge against this law, serving as counsel for Woodhull Freedom Foundation et. al v The United States, with acclaimed first amendment lawyer Larry Walters at the helm. Today, Walters and I discuss the damage caused by SESTA/FOSTA, and the progress of the case against it, including a recent major victory.  References:  FirstAmendment.com  StopSESTA.org Woodhull Freedom Foundation Electronic Frontier Foundation Today's episode was produced by me, Blair Hopkins, and brought to you in part by SWOP-Behind Bars.

Every year, tales of the great and fabled Super Bowl sex trafficking upswing make their rounds online. These rumors instill fear in the upstanding public, and infuse law enforcement and anti-trafficking organization with cash for intervention measures.

What's Eating Kaytlin Bailey: In her journey from underaged escort, to history major, to performer and political pundit, both the mission and the bane of Kaytlin's existence has been a burning desire to grasp the bigger picture.

The Client: Sid grew up plagued by the constraints of what he was trained to believe it meant to be a man. By middle age, he'd checked all the boxes; he was married, had a kid, had a good job, but he still felt empty and repressed. His boredom and the inner toil around the edges of his erotic imagination led him to start seeing sex workers. Tune in to hear Sid talk about how seeing sex workers helped him come to terms with his kinks and queerness, and allowed him to finally live honestly in his own skin.  ADSW is produced by Blair Hopkins, and brought to you in part by SWOP-Behind Bars.
