This episode was actually really a treat for me to return to and edit. The audience was super cute as my audiences tend to be. I hope you laugh and get turned on listening as much as I did making it. We talk about how fucking machines are objects that objectify you, about breeding with ovipositor dildos, about artisinal poppers that make you feel the way you do when you have a really big crush on someone, and how during the pandemic we missed strangers spitting in our mouths. Real quick I just want to tell you that if listening to this makes you wish you could attend YAPIT live, you’re gonna wanna come back to the Junior High gallery on June 11th for a cabaret celebration of the book release with wine and sweets and schmoozing… and burlesque and drag performance curated by my very talented friend Spike Prince of Cats. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/into-that-the-experience-tickets-894067258237?aff=oddtdtcreator The best way to get tickets to that show, and also find out about my book tour and educatrix workshops, and my new detective comic Deprog, is to subscribe to my newsletter at Tina Horn dot net, and follow me where I’m most active at tinahornsass on Instagram.

“Is it ok for 'Juno Mac' to be an anxious hooker and an advocate for sex worker rights? Am I allowed to be a messy, complicated person?” // The co-author of the indispensable book Revolting Prostitutes join me over the phone from her quarantine in England to discuss: the unfair pressure of compartmentalizing our own sex lives and whoreientations, why doing sex work digitally feels like Buffy losing her super-strength and not being able to open a jar of pickles, dinner party Decrim talking points, and “calling in” the analogy "sex is to rape as sex work is to trafficking." // Juno Mac is a professional leg spreader and opinion haver; a sex worker, activist, author, and photographer based in London, UK. She is an organizer with Sex Workers’ Advocacy and Resistance Movement, a collective of sex workers based in different cities around the UK.

| Pleasure Chest: Queering Sex w Ryan | 08 Jun 2017 | 00:32:51 | |
“Sex that takes up a lot of time doesn’t contribute to capitalist production. Anyone who comes into the Pleasure Chest is already saying; I’m taking back time for myself." In this special Pride episode, Ryan DiMartino talks with Tina about queering sex. From fabulous toys like golden strap-on dildos, to queer porn and literature, to gender affirming gear like gaffs and packers, the Pleasure Chest is the perfect place to find everything you need to queer your sex life all year long!

| SfSx: Jen Hickman Interrobang?! | 20 Jul 2020 | 01:10:37 | |
“The push and pull between clarity and imagination is something I think about a lot in visual storytelling.” // I called up SfSx series artist Jen Hickman to celebrate the release of our SfSx: Volume 1: Protection trade paperback on July 22nd! Jen and I discuss our collaborative process, and Jen gives some insight into how they think about formatting sequential art, color as music, and an art school game that’s like exquisite corpse but with dicks. We also touch on Jen’s talent for “character acting” and one of my favorite examples of this from SfSx, how they made an air duct scene sex charged and hilarious, the role of time in comics especially smutty comics, and what kind of sex robot we'd want to fuck. // Jen Hickman is a visual storyteller and a graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design's Sequential Art program. Past work includes TEST, Moth & Whisper, Jem and the Holograms, the Femme Magnifique anthology, and more. They get really excited about dystopian fiction, good coffee, and drawing hands.

| Shine Louise Houston: Voyeurism | 06 Jul 2020 | 00:50:09 | |
“The funny thing about Crash Pad is: you know that I know that you know that I know that there’s cameras in there." // In Part 2 of my interview with Shine, we focus in on Why Are People Into Voyeurism. // Shine tells a legendary tale of how seeing herself in the mirrors at the Lusty Lady inspired Crash Pad Series. We discuss how the voyeurism themes of CPS means she’s both removed her queer woman of color gaze and inserted that gaze into every single scene; how CPS has changed over 15 years of queer p*rn production; why you should pay for your porn; why asking first is necessary. We also explore: Why is voyeurism considered so creepy? Is the voyeur a top? When is looking like touching? There's also some nerdy camera talk and Shine's conspiracy theory about P*rn Hub. // Shine Louise Houston is the founding producer and director of Pink and White Productions (CrashPadSeries.com, PinkLabel.tv). During a five-year position at the women-owned sx toy purveyor Good Vibrations, Shine recognized an underserved demand for an alternative to mainstream p*rnography. In 2005, she quit her day job to form a p*rn company, kickstarting a renaissance in queer-made p*rn. A graduate from the San Francisco Arts Institute with a Bachelors in Fine Art Film, Shine has always had a unique vision for adult cinema. Her work has been recognized for its craft and cultural contribution to LGBTQ communities around the world. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/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. Ela not only has a deep understanding of nerdy tech stuff, but intrinsic compassion for the sex workers who put the reality in virtual reality.DISCUSSED: The Uncanny Valley / Presence / Engagement / Immersion / Light Reflected Off Skin / Caligula-style Orgies / Would Artificially Intelligent Sex Workers Pass a Turing Test? / Dragons Fucking While Flying / Combating Loneliness / Inter-pupillary Distance / "Maybe They Get Off on Disappointment" / Teledildonics / The First Martian Ejaculation / Shoot...

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 Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/yapit.

"Kink is about exploring the uncontrollable in a controlled way. It's about feeling unsafe in a situation that is actually safe. That's the art of it." Erotic humiliation can be about so many different abstract things, and Princess Kali is here to break it down! This retired dominatrix, producer of Kink Academy, and author of Enough to Make You Blush explains how diminishing someone's ego can be one of the hottest kinds of BDSM. Whether it's objectification, financial domination, gender play, domestic service, or exposure, kinky humiliation is an intense form of power exchange that keeps on giving!Princess Kali has spent over fourteen years exploring not only the how but the why of alternative lifestyles. Her experience working as a professional dominatrix has given her a unique understanding of the motivations behind erotic humiliation play as well as a passion for helping people participate in it more safely and enjoyably.

| Shine Louise Houston: BLM + 15 yrs of Crash Pad Series | 25 Jun 2020 | 00:53:33 | |
On May 11th, I recorded an episode remotely with Shine, about 15 years of Crash Pad Series, and a second part about voyeurism. On June 24th, I called her back to get her perspective on the Movement for Black Lives. This is part one, including our talks about BLM and CPS. Voyeurism coming soon. // “If you tell professionals what to do they won’t riff. If you tell amateurs what to do they ignore you. What I found was that the more I took myself out, the more organic the scene could be… The only thing I needed to control was the cameras…” // In which I call Crash Pad Series the Law and Order of Queer P*rn, Shine explains the origin story of the CPS themes and production values, and her take on the narratives of a sex scene. // Shine Louise Houston is the founding producer and director of Pink and White Productions (CrashPadSeries.com, PinkLabel.tv). During a five-year position at the women-owned sx toy purveyor Good Vibrations, Shine recognized an underserved demand for an alternative to mainstream p*rnography. In 2005, she quit her day job to form a p*rn company, kickstarting a renaissance in queer-made p*rn. A graduate from the San Francisco Arts Institute with a Bachelors in Fine Art Film, Shine has always had a unique vision for adult cinema. Her work has been recognized for its craft and cultural contribution to LGBTQ communities around the world. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/yapit.

Tina Horn and Girl Sex 101 Allison Moon both love to put their strap-ons in the butts of lucky gentlemen. What is it about this specific gender configuration (a cis-woman fucking a cis-man in the ass with a strap-on), this so-called “reversal of roles,” that has the incredible power to queer heterosexual intercourse?

You'll recall the meme featuring the great Iggy Pop wearing an evening gown alongside his quote: “I'm not ashamed to dress ‘like a woman' because I don't think it's shameful to be a woman.” This month's episode is a discussion between two cisgender queer women who have both made a living for many years facilitating the fantasy of cisgender men to dress up in dresses, lingerie, heels, makeup, and wigs. Beginning with the premise that the very idea of “crossing” from one gender to the other is horribly outmoded (for example, both Tina and guest Morgana Maye were definitely both wearing pants during this conversation), these two professional dominants discuss the erotic possibilities and mind-bending politics of those who enjoy erotically embodying femininity without identifying as a woman per ce. Discussed: “Please explain me to myself” / The difference between erotic degradation, humiliation, and embarrassment /... Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/yapit.
