This week’s Hot Sox podcast is like the Moth, for pervs. And at the end of the podcast, listen to the story I told at last week’s Oakland Bawdy Storytelling show. All thanks to doing this podcast!

In this week’s Hot Sox podcast, join the storytelling seductress behind Bawdy Storytelling, Dixie De La Tour, as she shares tales of cougars, power exchange, orgies, anonymous sex, getting laid on craigslist and losing her virginity. I know I can’t stop listening as Dixie weaves true tales, including one of a woman who gets fucked into her new body, why she began offering blow job advice in high school and how to get laid on craigslist. I also tell her about my grade school’s so called virginity test.

Listen via itunes or here (via my site). And I know it’s a little echo-y. I promise now that I’m regularly podcasting, I’ll improve my sound and recording very, berry soon.

Plus, the Easter Orgy at kink.com, porn performers and public disgrace. You can read all about her at her blog, Whatever You Desire, and of course, hear more about her on this week’s Hot Sox Podcast!

In this week’s Hot Sox Podcast I talk with Tess Danesi and Dee “Diva” Dennis about Momentum — their cutting edge conference on sex, feminism and relationships. I’ve known both of these sexy mamas (they are both mothers too) for a number of years and together, and apart, they are a force to be reckoned with. Their current project, Momentum, has a stellar line up and it’s happening in just few weeks in Washington DC. Be there if you can…and if you can’t, you can still listen to our podcast. We skyped down (since we didn’t sit down) to discuss sex, education, motherhood, masturbation, consent, pornography, golden lassos and community.
