Originally hailing from Liverpool, England, Iain Ling took over The Lincoln in 2014. The pub originally opened all the way back in 1854 and has been continuously operated as a pub or hotel ever since. The Lincoln was named Pub of the Year in 2017 by Time Out. In 2018 it was named Hotel of the Year at the Australian Liquor Industry Awards and Pub of the Year at the Australian Bar Awards, and Lingy was named Publican of the Year in 2019 at the Australian Liquor Industry Awards. Gemima Cody from Good Food best sums up this place when she wrote in 2020 - “At a pub I knew I'd find proof that the whole world was still out there. When veteran Iain Ling took over…it developed serious dining credentials, championing Victorian produce, but unlike a lot of boozers-turned-gentrified-bistros it never lost its roots. You want community? It's here. It's good to have it back.” Produced by: Nick Sherry Music by: Aaron Drake

“Wine is the great socialization lubricant” - Phil Hude Phil Hude has been in the wine retail business for over 25 years, having taken the reins of Armadale Cellars in 1997.

Located in the affluent leafy inner east of Melbourne, Australia, Armadale Cellars is one of the few remaining independent owner-operated wine merchants in the city. Phil grew up in a working class family from the northern suburbs of Melbourne and has gravitated to being one of the most well respected wine merchants in the country.

On this episode, we talk about how Alex, a life-long dancer, was originally introduced to pole dance by his wife Katia; his experience traveling and competing around the world and now running his own camp Alex Pole Camp, and world championship at his Alex Pole Festival; and we also discuss his vision of elevating pole so it appeals to an audience outside of our own industry. We also have guest appearances throughout the interview by Alex’s beautiful wife and adorable daughter, so be ready to meet the whole Shchukin family! And something we’ve never done before, but we have an addendum to our interview sliced in to the original! So since our original interview, some controversy emerged in the pole community involving some not cool hate speech, and since Alex was called out, he shares his views and response with us, and because you know we don’t have haters on this podcast, it’s all about love.

On this episode, we have Annemarie Davies, aka the Queen of Sexy. As we learned in Part 1, Annemarie is an OG poler who originally discovered pole dance in 2002 and who is still an influential and undeniable force in the community today. We discussed her experience witnessing the birth and growth of pole over the past 14 years, the history of contemporary pole dance, what makes someone sexy, and what inspired her to start United Pole Artists. In part 2 we chat more about changing the public perception of pole dance, her experience as a teacher, and educating people about pole dance through her upcoming documentary, Fistful of Steel. We left with Annmarie acknowledging the uphill battle when it comes to getting positive exposure for pole dance, but enthusiastically confirming that we are winning. ++++++ Show Notes: Early Pole Influencers: Fawnia Dietrich: http://www.polefitnessstudio.com/about-fawnia/ Bobbi: http://bobbispolestudiogold.com.au/about-bobbi.html Vertical Joe's: http://www.verticaljoes.com/index.html Social Media: Annemarie Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thequeenofsexy/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amdavies9 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/amdavies9 Social Media: UPA Website: http://unitedpoleartists.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upartists/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UPArtists/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/unitedpoleartists Twitter: https://twitter.com/UPArtists ++++++ Pole Parlour is a fun, inspiring podcast for all those bewitched by pole dance.

Today on the podcast, we have Candace Cane. I wanted to bring Candace on the show because she is one of those rare dancers who has her hand in the proverbial cookie jar of all things pole dance: she’s an instructor, performer, stripper, video vixen, and competitive pole dance champion. And because of this she has an interesting and well-rounded perspective of pole dance. On this episode she shares her experience of being a full-time dancer, along with her views on how we as pole dancers should unite as an empowered, diverse community rather than divide ourselves based on insignificant differences. Also, as a disclaimer, I’ve never done a spoken interview or podcast before, so I want to thank everyone ahead of time for sticking with me through some of my cringe-worthy moments… hopefully my talking skills will get better as time goes on! ++++++ Show Notes: Candace will be performing and doing workshops in Minneapolis, February 18–22, at Dolls on Parade: http://www.dollsonparade.com/ Candace’s Pole Crush: Anastasia Skukhtorova (IG @Anastasiaskukhtorova) Social Media: SweetMsCandace Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sweetmscandace Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sweetmscandace/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/sweetmscandace For private lessons, workshops, shows, etc.: BookingCandace@gmail.com Candace’s favorite pole studio in Zihuatanejo, Guerrero, Mexico: Rojas Pasión Dance Studio ++++++ Pole Parlour is passionate about preaching creativity, soulful sensuality, and empowerment through pole dance.
