Special Announcements and Fresh Collaborations on A Stripper's Guide
Stigma and systemic oppression make it harder than it should be for us to lead normal lives. We're often pressured to prove our worth in our careers, in our creative endeavors, and even in our closest relationships.
Big changes are afoot on 'A Stripper's Guide', and hosts Leilah Feinstein and Erica Sosa are here to fill you in. This episode kicks off with some bittersweet news: co-host Ataraxxxia is stepping back due to scheduling conflicts. But don't worry, she's still a passionate advocate for sex work de-stigmatization in Latin America and will pop back in as a guest from time to time. Leilah and Erica share their heartfelt goodbyes and look forward to future collaborations with her.
As the podcast shifts gears, episodes will now drop every two weeks. The hosts are on the hunt for grants and sponsorships to keep the show thriving. They're not just sitting back; they're calling on queer, femme, or sex-working filmmakers and podcasters to join their mission. If you've got experience in podcast or documentary production, this could be your chance to make a difference.
Leilah and Erica also hint at exciting future guests, including Aubrey Gordon from the Maintenance Phase Podcast. Expect conversations that dive deep into the parallels between the stigmas faced by fat folks and sex workers—an eye-opening topic that's sure to resonate with many listeners. This episode is more than just announcements; it's a rallying cry for community support and collaboration.
