Episode 24: New York Continued

This episode features conversations that didn’t quite fit into the sex party episode but were simply too good to leave on the cutting room floor. Ames Bex makes his second appearance on the show. This time he talks about directing porn and his ongoing transition into manhood, both legally and physically. Ames also has a podcast of his own called Mister Bex Talks Sex. Photographer and Kink tour guide Efrain John Gonzalez aka Gonzobear, takes Chris through Manhattan’s Meatpacking District where he gives walking tours “that take you back to the good old days of the 80's and 90's, when the district was packed with some of the kinkiest, sleaziest and craziest bars and underground clubs in Manhattan.” We also hear from Selena Fire, Patricia Johnson, and Mark Michaels, the three co-founders of Pleasure Salon: a monthly social gathering designed to “bring together members of the BDSM, swinger, alternative gender, LGBTQ, sex-activist, porn, sex educator, nudist, sex-magic, polyamory, Pagan, radical faerie, tantra, sex-blogger, sex writer, pervert and sex-worker communities, and others whose passion is sex or sexuality” in a casual cocktail party environment. Patricia and Mark also talk about the 5 books they’ve coauthored together. Also remember to check out this frightening Wall Street Journal article and this SNL sketch about gentrification in the Meatpacking District.
