Full Disclosure: Sex, Culture, And Comedy

Hi guys, broken-jawed, unable to speak Eric here. Unfortunately we don't have an episode this week because I was involved in a serious accident and my jaw is wired shut for the next six weeks. Nick is on the mic to tell you a bit more, and that we hope to move forward in the interim. —-For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on StitcherWe want to hear from you!

Nina Hartley returns to the show, commenting on a Twitter exchange between Eric and a porn publicist who debated whether or not porn performers were sex workers. From there Nina takes the conversation to all sorts of topics from teaching kids about their bodies and masturbation, the legality of porn vs. escorting, and radical feminists who shame women for liking men.----For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!If you have questions or comments for the show, leave us a voicemail @ (415) 779-6855

This week it's just Eric, Danny, and Nick chatting about Danny's reproductive parts in detail. Danny had an IUD put in today, an invasive procedure that was further complicated by the fact that Danny is attracted to her OBGYN. We talk Oscars, and contemplate why some in the trans community are upset that Jared Leto won for his portrayal of a transvestite in Dallas Buyers Club. Plus Danny shares some embarrassing stories about her work as an escort, including how she recently pooped her pants, Nick tells us about his new #patriot Twitter experiment, and Eric wonders if he's been resistant to STIs because of his ongoing antibiotic regimen.----For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!If you have questions or comments for the show, leave us a voicemail @ (415) 779-6855

Michelle L'amour is a Chicago native who has traveled the world performing burlesque. Adam Burke is a Northern Ireland native who's now one of Chicago's premier comedians. Together the two teamed up to form the comedy and burlesque variety show Wiggle Room. Michelle and Adam sit down with Eric to discuss their beginnings, their experience with religion, and what made them decide to bring their two worlds together. Later in the show, Eric attended his first play party which was hosted by  Danny. We hear some incredible audio of Danny and her first experience with the fucksaw, we read about the beauty of Christian fisting and we hear the best rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner, ever. ----For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on StitcherWe want to hear from you!

Holy crap what a show! Eric had a surprise mini-interview with author, sex columnist, and Savage Lovecast creator Dan Savage! Plus Eric had an in-depth interview with adult star and aspiring comedian Alexa Aimes. Helping Eric hold down the podcasting fort this week, we also have Danny in the bedroom and Nick Palm skyping in. Eric explains how he found himself face to face with one of his personal and career inspirations, recording an interview on an iPhone and nervously asking Dan Savage questions. Dan discusses how his career informs his personal dating life, the launch of the Hump! Tour, and where he hopes to see our country in 10 years. While on an OKC date that same night, Eric ran into a lesbian couple also on their first OKC date, who kept insisting that Eric was a closeted gay dude that they wanted to out. Then we cut to our interview with Alexa Aimes. Alexa discusses her rough childhood, how she rebelled in her teenage years as an adopted child, and eventually moved from a career path as an RN to the

We have a jam-packed show this week as we welcome Caroline Allen back for a second week, this time as guest co-host, and we have an in-depth interview with Chicago chef, escort, mother, and professional hedonist Danny aka FetLife's "Lola Luscious".     To start things off, Caroline and I discuss childhood dreams, why "good tasting" alcohol is considered "bad", an argument I had with a guy at Caroline's party who didn't understand how kink might not involve climaxing, and of course the Russian Police Choir singing "Get Lucky".   Then we go to my interview with Danny. Danny talks about her background as a chef, how she went from shy child to rebellious teen, her beginnings as a sex worker, how she learned not to date clients, and managing her life as a young mother. To wrap things up, Danny made some phenomenal oysters, which also serve as an aphrodisiac! ----For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on StitcherChicago!

This week we have Chicago improviser and Second City Conservatory member Caroline Allen in the bedroom! But first co-host Nick and I discuss the Super Bowl, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Chicago open mics, and the first polyamorous party I've ever attended. Then we get into it with Caroline. She details her life growing up in Memphis Tennessee as an only child and the lasting impact that Christianity had on her life from an early age. Things get intensely revealing when Caroline opens up about her engagement to an adulterous minister, his attempts to shame her about his own infidelity, and how the relationship inspired Caroline to seek a new direction in life. Later we discuss how Caroline got involved in improv, the mindset of standup vs. improv, and what the career path is like for someone pursuing comedy in Chicago.—-For more sex news and comedy please follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on StitcherChicago!

That's right! This week we have... Eric Barry on the show? Although we share a namesake, Eric Barry is in fact not me but an extremely diverse creative force in his own right, having had success as a rapper, actor, and now author. In a handsome contest I think we can all agree Eric Barry wins. To start things off I talk a bit about the Grammy's, including the moving, although somewhat bizarre Macklemore-Madonna marriage performance, plus the "real" live version of Lorde's performance sans auto-tune. Plus I meet a guy at a Chicago munch who practices a fascinating although potentially disturbing form of master-slave relationships called Gorean. And I talk about why it's hard to go out as a single guy in Chicago. Then we get Eric on the line. Originating as a talented comedic rapper under the name Cheazy-E, Eric landed a major acting role in the John Waters film Cecil B. Demented and was was thrust into the entertainment industry. Eric talks about how he got his start, the journey his career his taken, a rather

Lady Sophia is a dominatrix, sex educator, and proprietor of Chicago Dungeon Rentals, one of the classiest places I've ever been to that happens to also allow ladies to take a stiletto straight to a man's junk and leave them begging for more. Lady Sophia and me in the bedroom. Sophia took me on a tour of her amazing dungeon - which honest to god, is one of the best smelling places I've ever been in. There was an array of flogs, paddles, masks, shock devices, rigs, and so much more. Gas Mask Paddler was my steampunk indie band's name in high school. Then we took it back to the bedroom where Nick joined us in my internet box. We talked about the devastating loss the Niners faced yesterday, and the woman who wanted me to make out with her in front of her ex-boyfriend. Then we get into it with Lady Sophia - discussing how she got her start, the types of clients she gets, the ins-and-outs of running a dungeon and being a dominatrix, and also urine bongs: After all this talk of the kink she doles out, I decided th

This week we have the incredible sex-everything duo Sunny Megatron and Ken Melvoin-Berg on the show. They're Eric's first Chicago-based guests, and boy did they not disappoint - in fact they were probably the most hardcore people on the show to date. The sex educators and adult entrepreneurs discuss their own past with kink, the Chicago sex scene, and all of the mind-blowing things they've seen and done in their lives. Highlights include old ladies and puppetry of the penis, AVN midget blowbangs, ritual fucking on the altar of a seminary school, shoving balloon animals into buttholes and more. Later on Eric asks Sunny and Ken about the etiquette of who pays for a date and how it differs between Chicago and San Francisco, although Eric's had some good luck so far, so perhaps some of that San Francisco flavor is rubbing off already.----Follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on StitcherIf you have questions, thoughts, dirty stories for the show leave us a voicemail! (41

Hi hi from the land of frostbite and fried everything! This week Eric (it's always weird doing this in the third person) is all moved in to Chicago and thriving, despite still not having luggage. This week Nick calls in and hears about how it's been going and why he'd love Chicago (booze), plus we have author of The Complete Linda Lovelace Eric Danville on the show. Eric discusses his youth, including his first publishing gig at High Times magazine. Later Eric discusses his foray into porn journalism, how his parents reacted to his career, and why Linda Lovelace was such an important figure in the adult world.—-Follow me on Twitter @EricBarrySUBSCRIBE IN iTUNES and please rate us!!!or Listen on Stitcher

It's Eric's last episode while he's in SF! But fear not! We'll be continuing the podcast from Chicago with Nick and Jess Skyping in! To celebrate our last SF based episode, we have the amazing Dr. Carol Queen returning to the show, as well as Eric's improv buddy Craig Gaspian. We get to ask Carol all sorts of fun questions about sex education, the history of something called the Orgone Box, maintaining erections with condoms on, and more. Carol then tells us about the projects she's been working on, including the documentary Unhung Hero about one man's struggle with penis size (a topic dear to Eric's heart). Later Craig assures Eric that Chicago does in fact have a lot of sex positivity in our latest installment of Butt Plug Theater. Naturally this leads Carol to discuss Jennifer Lawrence's own affection for butt plugs. We wrap things up with a look back at some of the many, many bars Eric's been kicked out of in his time in San Francisco. Thanks so much to everyone who's made the SF iteration of the podcast

It's Christmas and we're getting pretty Holy with our Moly because we have THE Nina Hartley on the show! Nina is an icon in not just the world of porn, but sex education, sex positivity, women's issues and more. We start things off with Emily VD and Eric calling up Nick, who's partying in Vegas for Christmas. Eric and Emily chat briefly about the roast from last week, and why shows that force you to prepare new material are so great. Then we dive into things with Nina Hartley! Nina is a San Francisco 49ers fan as well, and keeps us updated on the Niners victory against the Falcons. Eric talks about the first time he met Nina, when she was giving a hair-pulling and spanking demo while Eric was a freshmen at UC Berkeley. Nina is actually from Berkeley, and she discusses the array of ideologies she was exposed to growing up in in the Bay Area in the 70's. It turns out Nina is incredibly modest as well - at no point was she seeking celebrity in her career, nor was she entirely aware of when she achieved it. We

Hey guys! We have a special bonus episode this week! As part of my going away extravaganza I organized a goodbye roast featuring some of San Francisco's best comedians who I also consider to be friends in comedy. It took place at Milk Bar on Tuesday 12/17 and it was absolutely hilarious (I was crying [from laughter]) most of the time on stage. Nick Palm roasting Eric Barry on stage. My thanks to all my friends who came out and the comics who roasted me:Josh MarcusNick PalmJules PosnerLeslie SmallVince ManciniEmily VDMean DaveMatt LiebWilliam Head And a shout out to Mike Hillebrand and Jen Cowing who have helped make the comedy nights at Milk a place I'll never forget through their hard work and even harder drinks. Be well and be loved!

We're out one Nick Palm, but keeping his seat warm we have Anthony Sandoval back on the show. This week it's a very internet feuds/comedy nerdom heavy show, so strap in tight. We kick things off by talking about SantaCon and Eric's "Ellis Act" costume. Anthony talks to us about his new gig working at Cobb's comedy club in San Francisco, and how he saw Tracy Morgan walk 26 people after doing an entire set based on eating asshole. Later we discuss a debate Eric's engaged in online involving a friend who attacked Dane Cook on Twitter and then got upset when he didn't respond in a funny manner. We talk about the aging of comedy, and how hating on a comedian who's no longer in the spotlight is deemed pretty hacky in itself within the comedy community. Eric's preparing to move and has been getting emotional as he's been clearing out drawers and coming across old love notes. This somehow leads to Jess talking about music she likes to fuck to, and we go through some tracks. We wrap things up by talking more about onl

The whole crew is back and this week we welcome sex worker and amazing host of The Whorecast Siouxsie Q to the studio! We start off by discussing the growing tensions between San Francisco's techie elite and those who are finding themselves struggling more and more to afford this city. Yesterday a protest was staged blocking one of the many private shuttles that pickup Google employees in the city and buses them down to Mountain View. The buses have become emblematic of the disparity of wealth in the city, and the amenities offered to those with tech jobs in the city vs. those who are trying to keep the city culturally diverse. Next it turns out that Jess may have a butt tick again! So it's off with her clothes as Eric and Nick examine her while she does a sexy tick infested strip tease. After the break we dig into Siouxsie Q's past. She talks about growing up with an Indian Witch mother and hardcore theater union Deadhead father, and the first time she felt feelings for women. It turns out Siouxsie was also

This week it's just Jess and Eric in studio, broing out. Things we talk about: Jess at the Dickens Fair, Thanksgiving, Eric's 10 year high school reunion and how he went from wearing all black and a trench coat to winning the school's presidency, bi incest porn, Eric moving to Chicago, podcasting, and an argument about why Eric didn't get a job as a podcast producer with NPR. San Francisco: Be sure to save the date 12/17 for my last comedy show in SF, where I'll be roasted by some of my closest friends (term used loosely) in comedy.

Well this was certainly one of our most challenging podcasts to record. On this episode, Nick and Eric discuss what happened this past weekend at Eric's Friendsgiving party, when Nick hooked up with a friend that Eric has feelings for (who's also been a guest on the show). We start things off by playing a segment we recorded at Friendsgiving before things got dramatic. Then we dive in to the past weekend's not-so-fun events. Eric asks Nick for his perspective, and Nick struggles with opening up emotionally, and also admits he doesn't remember much of the night. Eric gives his version, and elucidates the confusing aspects of his relationship with his friend. Jess chimes in, and feels that Eric's taking things too personally, and that it's hard for people to be held accountable for things they did while they were drunk. Hey guess what? Ben Kolina's on the show too! We chat Rob Ford, the dog that seized up and pissed all over Jess, and whether Eric moving to Chicago in January is the right choice. SUBSCRIBE

We got another jam packed show! This week comedian Emily VD is back, and she brings her friend Tricia in studio. Emily recently got Invisalign and shares about the pains of planning sex and life in general around her new grill. Then we skype in milf adult star Kendra Lust. Kendra talks about why she gave up nursing for her secret desire to do porn, her first experience with a girl, and how she told her mom about her new career. Later we talk about SF Batkid, and the controversy it ignited in the internets. Finally, Emily brings us home with talk of a recent date who was very straight forward with her about what he's looking for. Emily's not a fan, and of course Eric is.

This week we have writer and all around cool lady Anna Pulley on the show. We talk about Anna's beginnings as a writer, the development of her sexuality, her work with Salon, Dan Savage, and more. Later on we move in to tackle the oh-so-sticky subject of bisexuality. Anna, Jess, and Eric's friend Jen Lukas are all women who are attracted to both males and females, but they've encountered a lot of difficulty when it's come to identifying as bisexual women. Are bisexuals just going through a phase? What if you enjoy sexual relationships with both men and women but not emotional ones? How do most lesbians react when they find out you're bisexual? Are straight men always trying to orchestrate threesomes with you? We ask all these questions and come up with no answers. Also, condom blimps. LISTEN NOW!
