Why Are People Into That?!

Fire! Fire! It’s not just a toy for teenage dirtbags anymore! It’s also a primal element that can be harnesses for kinky sex. Lamalani sat down with Tina to explain the erotic appeal of a flame to all five senses, describe some really fun fire play scenes, and instruct us on how to play safe with this dangerous force of nature. If you’ve ever wondered what folks mean when they talk about a flame “licking,” this is the episode for you!Lamalani originally hails from the Pacific Northwest, lived in the Bay Area of California and is currently pursuing her PhD in the Midwest. She held the title of Washington State Ms Leather 2008 and International Ms Leather 2009. Professionally, Lamalani has been a purchaser and sex-educator at the women-owned sex toy store Babeland, bondage rope maker with Twisted Monk and craftsperson at Mr S Leathers. She was awarded the Northwest Regional Pantheon XV, Leather Emerald Award 2011 and named in The Advocate magazine's 2010 list of 40 exemplary people under 40.

This is a raunchy one, folks. We talk about a whole lot of out-there fetishes on this show. Every so often we like to switch it up and talk about something conventional, familiar, and even vanilla. Which leads us to... cocksucking. Subversive writer and podcaster Merritt K has a lot to say about the job of blow: its versatility, its portability, its theatricality .. and her perspectives are anything but mundane. What makes a great cocksucker? A great cocksuckee? What is the advantage of the mouth over other holes? Do you have to have a cock to get your cock sucked? Does consent have to be hot to be necessary? (hint: Nope) These questions and more on the latest episode of YAPIT?!.

It's all well and good to play a video game or go on a tour of the ocean floor with a virtual reality headset: but if you're jerking off, you need that shit to seem really, really real! Ela Darling is here to make that happen: she's the world's first VR cam girl. Ela and her pioneering company are working tirelessly to assure not only that VR cam models have presence and immersion for the viewer, but that this science-fiction-cum-science-fact industry creates new and sustainable revenue for model-entrepreneurs.

Is blood just another sexual fluid? Or is it dangerous paint? Canadian photographer Maxwell Lander (whose unparalleled new book, Carnal Anomaly, is out now!) is prepared to open veins and find out. Max is infamous for breaking through all kinds of barriers: between art and vulgarity, sex and violence, and sometimes the literal skin between human insides and the outside world. Tina climbed into Max's Times Square hotel bed to giggle and shiver about knives, guns, scalpels, needles, and pushing beyond the limits of desire.DISCUSSED: David Cronenberg's Crash / Canadian health care / Beefhearts Discovered in Garbage Cans / Fake Zombie Blood / Taking Things Too Far / The Taste of Menstrual Blood / Confronting Mortality
