What a treat to record this episode of my podcast in my bed! The opportunity was just ripe for the picking when I caught up with Seani Love for a chat about sex and his kinky adventures. Seani is a very approachable, Australian-born, UK-based, straight, male sex worker who was voted UK Sex Worker of the Year in 2015, and no sexual topic was too taboo. We chat about some of the lesser-known aspects of straight sex work - like how often his cock is involved - and Seani also shares some thoughts on the politics of sex work. And Seani even gave me a fabulous massage while we were relaxing before recording

These two cool cats introduced me to the Cigar Box Guitar. With a variety of boxes and number of strings, these handmade instruments are pretty awesome and have such a range of sounds. They can be used with distortion and effects pedals just like a standard guitar. Originating from America, they have a very rich history and musicians including BB King played the Cigar Box Guitar.

Paul Allen has a regular stall at the Sydney RocknRoll & Alternative Markets where you can come and hear him play his rockin’ blues and check out the guitars. Oliver Irving, who met Paul at his stall actually makes these quirky instruments, and as you can see in the video is a wealth of Cigar Box knowledge, too.
