Have you ever wondered if the long journey to womanhood influences your take on masculinity? After 3 puberties, a medically assigned celibacy & a surgery that exchanges her outie for an innie, Trans storyteller Gayle Wishart is ready for ALL the sexual experiences. And once that door finally door swings open, her wild adventure through tantra, BDSM dungeons, sex-positive kinky poly burner dance parties leads her to a new relationship with the patriarchy, and an appreciation for total surrender.

Episode 102: ‘Trans/Masculine’ (Gayle Wishart)

Bawdy Storytelling  – dubbed 'The Moth for pervs' by the LA Weekly – is the nation’s original sex and storytelling series.

Episode 289:  ‘Surprise Party’ (Phoenix Mandel)

Holy Baby Bump, talk about the best sex of your life! In this week’s story, journalist, essayist, and author Tracy Clark-Flory is eight months pregnant and the bigger her belly grows, the more distant she feels from her usual spank bank cravings. Should impending motherhood change her fantasies? In search of answers, Tracy interviews a whip wielding/childbearing dominatrix, a lactating cam model, and others who find being with child a powerful proposition. Her research - and a permanently plugged in Magic Wand - provide a new perspective on raging hormones, body image, and desire. #KnockedUp   Song: ‘Dirty Little Secret’ (Jefferson Bergey)   About our Storyteller:   Tracy Clark-Flory is a journalist, essayist, and author of the memoir Want Me: A Sex Writer's Journey into the Heart of Desire (Penguin, 2021), an NPR best book of the year. New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Traister called Want Me “intimate, challenging, and so very smart… a gift.” Peggy Orenstein, author of the New York Times bestseller Girls & Sex, called it “crucially important.” Clark-Flory has written for Cosmopolitan, Elle, Esquire, Glamour, The Guardian, and The Washington Post, to name just a few. She is a former senior staff writer at Jezebel and Salon. Her work has shown up in the Best Sex Writing anthology and she has been called “one of the best journalists of our generation writing about sexuality.” She writes a weekly newsletter on sex, feminism, motherhood, and pop culture at tracyclarkflory.substack.com.   Key Words: Pregnant | Swollen Belly l Beer Belly l Gangbang l Frat Boys l Casting Couch l Creepy Monsieur l Fetus l Desire l Thought Police l Hormones l Vibrator l Husband l Limitless Orgasms l Missionary l Cowgirl l Journalist l Research l Dominatrix l Weapon I Basketball l Trimester l Ample Curves l Neuroses l Hangups l Biology l Creativity l Lactation l Glowing l Search Term l Whip l Camgirl l Maternity l Slap l Plead l Magic Wand l Nerve Endings l Pickles and Ice Cream l Reproduction l Eroticized l Wholesome Sexuality l Buzz l   Episode links: Lume Deodorant: Save over 40% on the Lume starter pack!  Lume is seriously safe to use anywhere on your body - armpits, underboobs, thigh folds, belly buttons, butt cracks, vulvas, feet… It comes in fresh, bright scents like Clean Tangerine, Toasted Coconut, Lavender Sage, and more.

Episode 288:  ‘Momsexual’ (Tracy Clark-Flory)

Dixie is back, and so is the Podcast! In this episode: You’ve been told ‘Don’t do Bondage when you’re High’, but have you ever heard a true story that illustrated that point? Well, Science tells us that we learn best from a story, so this week, we have an informative ‘Don’t Try This at Home’ story for you. Punk Rock Leather Daddy Al Rahm Lujan was a mere 20 years old and fresh out of the Navy, and just beginning to explore his dominant nature. Young and unskilled at bondage (but eager to play), Al meets a submissive man with a unique fetish for tasseled loafers and business suits, so he picks up a pair of dress shoes at Kmart and they take their party to a secret lair. Al has his victim on a St Andrews cross and is using whips, floggers, nipple clamps and more on him - when the evening takes an unexpected turn. The submissive turns blue, the EMTs, Firefighters and Police are called, and their dangerous experience becomes a life lesson. Will Al get arrested for being Drunk and Kinky? Listen to discover the consequences of an impulsive (and intoxicated) adventure that helped Al get Sober. #GetSmart   Song: ‘All in the Suit that You Wear’ (Stone Temple Pilots)   About our Storyteller:   Al Rahm Lujan is a Bay Area Renaissance Daddy. His writing has appeared in numerous anthologies and publications, including Best American Erotica and Drummer Magazine. His visual art has been shown throughout the Bay Area, including Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and the Oakland Museum. His first short film, SM in the Hood is distributed by Frameline and if he hadn't maxed out his credit cards he might have completed his documentary CLN SBR PNX - True Stories of Chaos, Hope, Redemption and PUNK ROCK. He's a literal dad to a lovely young lady and a Mean Daddy to His Boy Robb.   Kink | Rope l Gay l Leather l Bondage l Loafers l Ferragamo l Yves St. Laurent l Daddy l Alcoholic l Bartender | Punk Rock l Latino l Lawyer l Navy l Vintage Kink Story l Rich l Batman’s Lair l Dominant l Eastern European I Funeral Suit l Sushi l Tasseled Loafers l Hot Carl l Omar Sharif l Dr. Zhivago l Ceviche l Law Office l Whiskey l St Andrews Cross l Whip l Flogger l Handcuffs l Nipple Clamps l Butt plug l Dildo l Spreader Bar l Sober l Dress Shoes l Suit and Tie l Snakeskin l Police Officer l EMT l Firefighter l Dom l Jewish l Cock Cage l Spiderman l 911 l Prison l Unconscious l My Eyes are Up Here l Batman’s Lair l   Episode links: Lume Deodorant: Save over 40% on the Lume starter pack!

Episode 287:  ‘Footwear on Fire’ (Al Rahm Lujan)

Episode 286:  ‘Spicy Pervertible’ (McKenning Wood)

What’s the best way to usher in the New Year? On this week’s episode, legendary voiceover artist Bill Ratner shares a true story from his early days in Radio: When his green card bride Claudine leaves him, he’s alone during the Holidays in an empty double wide and his evening shift duties at KJOI (LA’s easy listening music station). So when a fan requests something a bit more intimate than the Percy Faith Orchestra, why not make her happy? And on New Year’s Eve, they produce their own live show together over the air waves, using the station’s 50,000 watts of power to make the world a bit less lonely.  And Dixie ends the year with the story you’ve been asking her for. #HappyNewYear   Song: ‘Love’s A Stranger’ (Warhaus)   New Year l Radio DJ l Drive by Fucking l Anonymous Sex | Music Request Line l Radio Antenna l 1970’s l Lubrication l Harlequin Romance Novel l Top of Topanga Mobile Home Park l Double Wide l Vaseline l Instrumental Radio l Muzak l Muumuu | Terrycloth Bathtub Animals l FM Transmitter l Top of the Hour l Station ID l Honda Civic l Radio Console l Blinking LEDs I Percy Faith Orchestra l Middle Age l Smog l Order Up a Man l Microphone l Los Angeles l Happy New Year l Divorce l Radio Tower l Lawrence Welk l Green Card l Quell l Radio Station l Marriage l Swiss l London l LA l Radio Announcer l Chief Engineer l Sales Manager l   About our Storyteller:   Bill Ratner is one of Hollywood's premier voiceover artists and a published poet, essayist, and fiction writer.

The best place to stay abreast is our email newsletter. Ticket links will be released on the Bawdy newsletter; as soon as we confirm a date, you can find out there.   You’ll be the first to see upcoming Tour Dates, get access to Tickets, Storytelling Workshops, Livestreams, Podcasts, Fan Meetups and Special Events. I’ve been shadowbanned on Social Media (which means no one can see my posts - and that sucks when you’re headed out on a big Tour). So having my social media accounts deleted is probably next. If that happens, the only sure way for you and I to stay in touch is for you to sign up for Bawdy’s email newsletter. Please ask your friends to sign up, TOO.
