In part two of her chat with Gary on I Catch Killers, Jas shares the personal stories of women she met inside these venues, her chilling encounters with men on underground forums, and her frustrating attempts to get police and media to take action.

Jas Rawlinson is a fearless journalist, author and advocate. But before she was any of those things, she was a girl trying to survive in a home filled with domestic violence and coercive control. Jas grew up watching her father abuse her mother. She carried that shame into her first relationship, where love bombing turned into sexual abuse. But Jas didn't stay silent. She reclaimed her story and her power. And now, she's on a mission to expose the systems that exploit vulnerable women. In this episode of I Catch Killers, Jas explains the difference between physical and emotional abuse, and why the latter is so often dismissed, why she went undercover to expose Brisbane’s illegal massage parlour industry, and why she refuses to believe all men are the problem. This episode contains graphic descriptions of sexual assault and men's violence against women. If you or anyone you know is impacted by domestic, family or sexual violence, contact 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 for counselling, information and support services anytime.

On Saturday night, more than 100 people who live around Aurora Avenue North in Seattle marched to protest gun violence in their neighborhood. It was organized to call attention to the escalating number of shootings neighbors and law enforcement say are related to sex trafficking in the Aurora corridor. In desperation, some neighbors recently took matters into their own hands and put up makeshift street barriers to try to stop people from driving through neighborhoods. The city council has begun working on legislation that would allow the city to close off streets at the discretion of the chief of police. The hope is that this would help curb violence. But on Saturday, neighbors expressed anger that the city isn’t doing more to stop shootings and to help the victims of sex trafficking. So what’s happening on Aurora? And what is being done to fix it? Guests: Alex Voorhees, Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney for King County. Audrey Baedke, executive director of SAFE in Washington. Amber with Green Light Project.

Sexarbeit ist eben nicht gleich Sexarbeit. Mit dieser Überzeugung hat Johanna Adam die Ausstellung "Sex Work - eine Kulturgeschichte der Sexarbeit" in der Kunsthalle Bonn zusammengestellt. Sie soll zeigen: Die Realität von Sexarbeit liegt zwischen Glamour-Klischee und kriminellem Milieu. Ist das Verharmlosung, Normalisierung, Aufklärung oder nichts davon? Das klärt Catrin in dieser Folge. Von Catrin Altzschner.

Season 6, Episode 747: The Raw Truth about Sex Work, Shame, and Autonomy with Ex-Webcam Girl and Author Breezie Axelrod. What happens when a woman loses everything — her financial stability, her family support, even access to her own bank accounts — and the only thing left is her body and her will to survive? The Webcam Girl Next-Door is Breezie Axelrod's raw, unapologetic memoir detailing how she went from full-time caregiver to webcam performer after her father's sudden abduction and a devastating family betrayal left her financially stranded. No ID. No recent work history. No safety net. What followed wasn't fantasy — it was survival. Told through her real, unfiltered journal entries, Breezie documents the emotional, sexual, and psychological realities of entering the webcam world out of desperation. The book pulls back the curtain on digital intimacy, power dynamics, shame, empowerment, and the complicated truth behind subscription-based adult platforms. This isn't a glamorized "sex work success" story. It's messy. Vulnerable. Sometimes dark. Sometimes funny. And fiercely honest about what it means to monetize desire when the alternative is losing everything.

Max Morris's Not Sex Work: Queer Intimacy, Post-identity, and Incidental Encounters in the Digital Era (Routledge, 2025) brings together feminist theory, media studies, and queer research methodologies to offer new, compelling insight the relationships between money, digital platforms, and sex. Through longstanding engagement with gay, queer, and bisexual men who do not describe themselves as sex workers and who exchange sex or sexual services for money through digital platforms, Morris highlights how ‘incidental sex work' problematizes commonly-held assumptions of both work and intimacy. By starting from the position of unsettling what sex work might be, Morris holds space for ambivalences about labour, risk, and sex itself—destabilizing binaries found within both research and policy work. Not Sex Work's attention to how economics and intimacy shapes identity offers important analyses of not only what we might understand sex work to be, but also how digital platforms shape and reshape understandings of gender and sexuality. Max Morris is a Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Sociology at Oxford Brookes University. Using creative and feminist methodologies, their research focuses on gender, sexuality, HIV, digital platforms, and sex work. Rine Vieth is an FRQ Postdoctoral Fellow at Université Laval. They are currently studying how anti-gender mobilization shapes migration policy, particularly in regards to asylum determinations in the UK and Canada. Learn more about your ad choices.

LISTEN WITHOUT ADS ON PATREON! www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Dopey Episode Summary This Week on Dopey! We open the show in full single-dad chaos mode—juggling pickups, tutoring, dance class, concerts, naps gone wrong, and trying to make it home in time for the Knicks game. He announces the upcoming Dopey Recovery Short Film Festival, then reads an extremely heavy anonymous listener email about sexual compulsion, addiction, shame, and finding support through SLAA. The episode then shifts into classic Dopey mode with a wild voicemail involving cocaine psychosis, being naked with a fork, a pheasant-feather hat, and a guy selling condoms on campus. We dives into Spotify and Patreon comments from the Andy Dick episode, reading praise, criticism, jokes, sobriety milestones, and fan reactions. Then the show turns into the main event: a long, gritty, hilarious and vulnerable interview with Zoe Hansen. Zoe talks about growing up in wealthy but emotionally barren Chelsea, London, getting kicked out of school, discovering punk rock, heroin at 15, and moving to New York at 17. She describes working in hair and nightlife before entering the sex industry to support her habit, eventually becoming a seasoned brothel worker and heroin addict in late-80s Manhattan. She tells incredible stories about brothel life, clients, police raids, methadone stash strategies, Lower East Side heroin stamps, speedballing in Hell's Kitchen, dying briefly after a cocaine overdose in the Chelsea Hotel, waking blind, and living in the room where Nancy Spungen died. Zoe also reflects on spirituality, trauma, recovery, old New York, and writing her memoir Going Down in Gotham. A true Dopey legend episode.

Germany has been called "the brothel of Europe" due to it's thriving sex trade and relatively lax laws. But are those laws really all that lax? Anne Bonny, an activist and member of Hydra e.V. joined me to discuss the current and future realities of sex workers in Germany.

Where the American War of Independence raged, the camp followers...followed.Among them were sex workers, for both the American and British troops. What was life like inside army camps where sex workers mixed with wives, soldiers and generals? How did race and slavery factor into sex and sexuality in this time?

Her research addresses the ethics of public policy, medicine, and business. She is the author of several books, including Debating Sex Work (together with Lori Watson), where she defends the decriminalization of sex work. In this episode, we talk about the ethics of sex work. We discuss a feminist approach to sex work. We go through arguments used by people who position themselves against sex work, including the choice argument, the exploitation argument, and the objectification argument. We talk about the stigmatization of sex work. Then, we get into legal approaches to sex work, and discuss whether the possibility of selling and buying sex should be a matter of rights, the Nordic model versus decriminalization, and how to fight trafficking.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

In Sex Work in Southeast Asia: Scenes of Ambivalence in Literature and Film (Edinburgh UP, 2025), Leslie Barnes examines the ambivalences that mark Southeast Asian sex industries under global imperialism. She explores the multi-layered subjectivities of sex workers, procurers and clients, and interrogates the frameworks in which discourses surrounding sex work circulate. Engaged with debates concerning the status of transactional sex, Sex Work in Southeast Asia explores the symbolic force and concrete conditions of sex work in Cambodia and Vietnam, considering how these debates and the figures they ensnare are mediated by fiction and creative nonfiction. The book's scenes of ambivalence show how the aesthetic treatment of sex work stretches the paradigms we use to make sense not only of sex work, but also of art, the evidentiary status of testimony and the spectacles of pleasure and suffering. Contesting essentialism and authenticity, and working to suspend judgement, these scenes encourage a re-examination of what we think we know about sex work, how we know it and what we do with that knowledge. Leslie Barnes is an Associate Professor of French Studies at the Australian National University. She is author of Vietnam and the Colonial Condition of French Literature (2014) and co-editor of The Cinema of Rithy Panh: Everything Has a Soul (2021). We previously chatted on New Books about her work on the great Cambodian film director Rithy Panh, so was excited to speak with her again about Sex Work in Southeast Asia: Scenes of Ambivalence in Literature and Film.

For the 253rd episode of Private Parts Unknown, the tables are turned—host Courtney Kocak is interviewed by returning guest and Spent author Antonia Crane about her debut memoir Girl Gone Wild on its pub date!

We also talk about sex work, addiction, abusive relationships, “dark teachers,” the writers who shaped Courtney's voice, the challenge of fact-checking memory, and why memoir is about emotional truth more than perfect accuracy.

In this episode, I chat with Courtney Kocak about her debut memoir Girl Gone Wild!  She shares how it is both a personal reckoning and a cultural critique, tracing her journey from a “too much” small-town girl to a woman navigating ambition, sexuality, religion, and creative identity. She reflects on how early influences—strict religious messaging, shame around the body, and a lack of role models—shaped her relationship to power, pleasure, and self-worth, while her experiences in Hollywood and the entertainment industry reveal the harsh realities behind the myth of “making it.”  Listen to hear about: How the memoir evolved over 15+ years, requiring both craft development and personal growth to fully process her past experiences How early religious and cultural messaging created deep tension between bodily autonomy and imposed shame The empowerment vs. exploitation dynamic for young women, especially in entertainment The way Hollywood's success narrative often hides the economic struggle, privilege, and sacrifices required to sustain creative work How Kocak shifted from chasing external validation and fame to prioritizing artistic fulfillment and an integrated, authentic identity Learn more about Courtney or purchase Girl Gone Wild here Check Out Author Social Media PackagesCheck out the Bookwild Community on PatreonCheck Out My Stories Are My Religion SubstackGet Bookwild MerchFollow @imbookwild on InstagramOther Co-hosts On Instagram:Gare Billings @gareindeedreadsSteph Lauer @books.in.badgerlandHalley Sutton @halleysutton25Brian Watson @readingwithbrianMacKenzie Green @missusa2mba

Oh just me (Mila) reviewing this book

Key Topics: Kazumi's upbringing and how it shaped her perspective on sexuality and independence. The tipping point that pushed her to pursue OnlyFans and content creation full-time. How her background in marketing helped her build a powerful personal brand. Running a multi-million dollar career without an agency or management. The importance of community over competition in the adult industry. Wild marketing stunts that helped grow her platform, from festival promotions to bold ad campaigns. The viral story behind her Red Light District birthday orgy party and how it captured the internet's attention. The launch of OF University, where Kazumi teaches creators how to build sustainable businesses online. Breaking stigma and changing society's perception of sex work. The financial and strategic decisions that helped her grow an eight-figure empire.   Her plans for future ventures, including investing in real estate and expanding beyond content creation. Memorable fan interactions and the power of building authentic relationships with supporters. Rapid-fire “This or That” questions covering fantasies, turn-ons, and unforgettable experiences. Takeaways: Listeners are getting an inside look at how Kazumi turned bold decisions into a thriving empire. From viral marketing stunts to hosting one of the internet's most talked-about birthday parties, she shares the mindset that helped her go from corporate marketing to self-made adult mogul. Along the way, Kazumi breaks down the business of adult content, the power of personal branding, and why she's passionate about helping other creators succeed through OF University. It's equal parts business strategy, industry insight, and unfiltered conversation with one of the most fascinating personalities in the space.

A lot of people think addiction begins with a bad decision. We start earlier—at the moments when consent was stolen, trust collapsed, and silence felt safer than speaking. Carly sits down with us to map the real terrain: childhood sexual assault, a near-rape behind a high school bonfire, military harassment that exploited rank, and the long slide from alcohol to meth, from oxy to heroin. The story is raw and specific, and it asks a bigger question we should all be wrestling with: what if addiction isn't the disease, but the way we cope with the ones we don't treat?We walk through the culture of the OxyContin generation, the false safety of pills, and why heroin often follows when access dries up. Carly explains how meth's euphoria and laser focus quieted a mind on fire, and why boundaries—not willpower—became the non‑negotiable tools of her recovery. We dig into homelessness, the dangerous logic of abusive relationships, and a nuanced view of sex work as both survival and, at times, chosen agency. It's complicated on purpose; real lives are.What stands out most is the timeline. She got clean from heroin years before she learned relationship sobriety. That difference matters to anyone supporting survivors or working in addiction medicine: cravings don't exist in a vacuum, and trauma doesn't disappear at discharge. We talk about “playing the tape forward,” spotting red flags early, and building safety that might look extreme to outsiders but keeps a survivor alive and growing.If you care about trauma-informed recovery, sexual assault, military harassment, homelessness, sex work, and the real mechanics of healing, you'll find honesty here you can use. Listen, share with someone who needs to hear it, and leave a review so others can find the show. Your feedback helps us keep having the hard conversations that save lives.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

As many as 3 million women in India are believed to be sex workers, often pushed into the trade by extreme poverty or coercion. One organization has helped more than 32,000 of these women find a path out. While this group has earned international awards and philanthropic support, it's also raised complex questions about how best to help. Fred de Sam Lazaro reports for his series Agents for Change.

This episode of Holly Randall Unfiltered pulls back the curtain on the real business of sex work. Holly sits down with MelRose Michaels performer, entrepreneur, and founder of SexWorkCEO, SWR Data, and GPTs.ai for a raw, no-filter conversation about what it actually takes to survive and scale in the adult industry. This is an unglamorous, honest look at porn, power, money, and the psychological toll of monetizing your body from someone who's done it, survived it, and built systems to help others do it smarter.Want the unedited, uncensored live tapings + bonus Q&A where fans can ask questions?
