Half Hour Intern

Sex. It pretty much makes the world go round. They say that nearly every major invention ever can be traced back to a desire to impress someone that you are sexually attracted to. Moreover, adoption of new media and tech over the past 50 years has been heavily influenced by sex and the porn industry. One of the major reasons VHS won over the Betamax format was VHS was the main format for porn. By the late 1970s, erotic film accounted for over half of all VHS sales in the United States. On the internet 13% of all searches are for erotic content, somewhere between 4-30% of all traffic is for porn, and at any second 30,000,000 unique people are viewing porn online. Online payment was invented to collect money on porn sites. Makes you wonder what the future will hold with virtual reality and artificial intelligence…actually it doesn’t, it’s going to be a lot of porn and sex. Something this all encompassing takes a lot of time to talk about, and this will be the first of many of those talks. Today’s guest, Maxine Holloway, is a porn actress and director, live show actress and director, an escort, a sex activist, and a college level sex educator that has her masters in public health. As you can imagine, we had a lot to talk about. This is part 2 of our conversation.

Social media is such a pervasive fixture of modern society. You may love it, you may hate it, you may think it’s a waste of time…but there it is. Seemingly not concerned with peoples’ varying and ever-changing opinions of it, it remains, stronger than ever. Today we interview a social media manger for a major fitness brand, Beach Body. Jake will tell us about the ins and outs of trying to manage something as amorphous and massive as social media, and he’ll make us all feel a bit better about the social media hustle.

Do you like to exercise and consider yourself pretty fit? Let’s take a little test. Do you like swimming? How about swimming for two hours straight, nonstop? Do you like riding your bike? How about riding your bike for 112 miles, roughly the distance from Los Angeles to San Diego? Or maybe you’re more of a runner. How about running a full length marathon? I feel like I like fitness as much as the next guy, but I’m not lining up to do any of that stuff! Now, think about doing all 3 of those things, swimming for 2 hours, biking for 112 miles, and running a marathon BACK to BACK to BACK, with no stopping in between. Seems pretty inhuman. Well, it’s what today’s guest, and thousands of other people in the world do. Today we’ll learn all about the Iron Man triathlon and the crazy people that do them.
