Show Notes Chapter Markers

CW: discussions of racism

We’re joined by Despo Debby, a Blak non-binary queer whore and member of performance & art collective Debby Doesn’t Do It For Free. They have worked in porn, stripping, peepshows, camming, and full service sex work in parlours, privately, and on the streets AND are also an accomplished performer, rapper, and artist. We talk about art as activism, what people get wrong about Indigenous sex workers, and the reality TV shows we feel the least amount of guilt watching.
