Summary

A married mother did some sex work in her younger, wilder days. She's turned on by money, so it seems obvious that she should be a findom. But the typical clientele prefer a younger woman to take their money. How can she get her middle-aged kink on? Meanwhile, a gay man thinks porn is boooor-rrinnng! It's unrealistic, predictable and repetitive. Is there anything good out there? Sometimes you get questions that can only be answered by a porn star. Fortunately, Dan knows some! We are delighted to welcome John Thomas to the show. (You may know him as "Best Bottom of 2021") The extremely charming and visually compelling Thomas, helps answer questions about ethical porn production, the supply and demand differential between tops & bottoms, and the dark art of douching. A little of this gem is on the Micro, and the whole beautiful thing is on the Magnum. [email protected] 206-302-2064 This episode is brought to you by Squarespace.

0:26.6	Two quick asks here at the top of the show.
0:29.3	First ask is for me.
0:31.5	I'm asking if we, on the left, can please stop apologizing for winning gay marriage. Please. I follow this great public
0:41.1	historian, Amanda W. Timson on Instagram and YouTube. She's at yesterqueers. I love Amanda. Amanda is
0:48.2	great. One of my favorite follows on Instagram. I've learned so much from her. I recommend that
0:54.1	you go follow her. And I
0:55.8	really do truly hate that the first time I'm mentioning Amanda on my show and mentioning her
1:01.7	content is to complain about something she said. And it was just a quick aside, but it's something
1:06.8	people on the left, the queer left, feel obligated to say this snide aside whenever the fight for marriage equality comes up.

1:37.0	historian of queer history. See, I told you Amanda was a public historian of queer history.
1:40.6	Would I lie to you? The story she shares is fascinating. Again, go follow Amanda
1:45.7	on Instagram or YouTube and watch the whole episode about Maxine Andrews and then binge, do a deep
1:51.4	dive through all of Amanda's content. But to sum up quickly, the Maxine Andrews story, Maxine
