The Erotic Mind of Aunt Becky — Podcast #186 — 02/22/10

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

We’re back with more of The Erotic Mind podcast series. Over the last two years we’ve spent numerous hours with talented authors who have talked with us about their erotic short stories or novels. Late last year we began to diverge a bit from that standard fair to broaden our perspective to include another type of sex writing — the memoir. Today we go even further a field to include blogging.

Today I am thrilled to welcome one of my favorite personalities of the blogosphere, the enormously funny and delightfully smutty, Becky Sherrick Harks. She is the remarkable woman behind the wildly popular blog, Mommy Wants Vodka. She also freelances and contributes to other online sites.

Aunt Becky, as she is known online, will read two hilarious selections from the fruit of her Erotic Mind. You’ll be laughing out loud as she skewers modern sexuality.

Aunt Becky and I discuss:

How she started her blogging career.
Working with a fellow blogger on the Mushroom Printing blog.
Launching Mommy Wants Vodka in 2007.
The trouble that name causes.
Back to school to study microbiology.
Family details.
Writing under her real name.
Being comfortable enough in her own skin to write autobiographically.

For more of Aunt Becky and her sex writing visit her on her Mommy Wants Vodka website HERE!

One last thought, I hope you’re also following my two other interview series, which appear on Wednesdays. One is called Sex EDGE-U-cation — I converse with prominent practitioners, educators and advocates of unconventional sexual expressions and lifestyles. And we investigate the world of fetish sex and kink. The other is called SEX WISDOM — here I chat with researchers, educators, clinicians, pundits and philosophers who are making news and reshaping how we look at our sexual selves. I can assure you that these conversations will be well worth the time you spend with us.

Look for all my podcasts on iTunes. You’ll find me in the podcast section, obviously. Just search for Dr Dick Sex Advice. And don’t forget to subscribe. I wouldn’t want you to miss even one episode.

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

I gotta tell ya; I have a soft spot in my heart for every single person I interview for my numerous podcast series. They’ve all enriched my life; and, for the most part, we’ve all had a good time together. But once in a while I have the good fortune to encounter someone I really hit it off with. One such person is David Cantero. And he is back with us again this week for Part 2 of our chat for The Erotic Mind podcast series.

There is something so charming, disarming and loveable about this exceptionally talented, Spanish born erotic visual artist and illustrator. I enjoyed our time together last week immensely. But wait, did you somehow miss Part 1 of our conversation? Well, all ya gotta do is use the site’s search function in the sidebar to your right, type in Podcast #183 and PRESTO! But don’t forget to include the #sign when you search.

One final thing; last week I casually mentioned to David that I felt bad that I wasn’t able to see any of his lusty comics, because they aren’t available here in the USA. Five days later a package arrived from David and in it was a copy of all his published work and each and every one of them was signed. I was overwhelmed. It was like freakin’ Christmas, don’t cha know. My sincerest thanks to you, David, for your unparalleled generosity.

David and I discuss:

Using the mediums of words and images.
His twenty self-published publications.
The story lines of some of his most popular comics.
Coming out of the closet; a common theme in his work.
Including fellow artists in some of his publications.
His Facebook Fan Page.
Having fun with stereotypes.
What he looks for in the erotic art of others.
His advice for aspiring erotic artists.

You absolutely must visit David on his website and get an eye full of his delicious artwork. Look for it HERE!

The Erotic Mind of David Cantero — Podcast #183 — 02/01/10

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

You know how I keep tellin’ ya that The Erotic Mind podcast series is all about conversations with noted erotic artists of every stripe from all over the world, right? And how our discussions are geared to uncovering something of the creative process involved in this specialized art form, right? Well then, today we take an audio field trip to Europe; Luxembourg, to be exact. So we can chat with the amazing Spanish born erotic visual artist and illustrator, David Cantero.

Sometimes when we travel abroad like this there can be a bit of a language barrier between me and the artist I’m interviewing. David is such a good sport; despite the fact that his English is not as good as his French or Spanish, he still agreed to talk to us. But with just one proviso, that he could invite two of his English-speaking friends, Sean and Julian, to join him while we chatted. So today’s podcast has a bit of a party atmosphere. David’s friends lend a hand with translation when necessary. And we all have a marvelously good time.

David and I discuss:

His muses, Sean and Julian.
His multi-national background.
His “day job” at The Picture Factory.
Publishing his own comics in Spain.
How he got his start as an erotic artist.
What inspires his erotic images.
Current trends in erotic comics.
Defining what is art and what is erotic.
The difference between erotic art and pornography.
His other work, which includes syfy, horror and children’s books.

You absolutely must visit David on his website and get an eye full of his delicious artwork. Look for it HERE!

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

We’re ready to rock and roll with a brand new year of podcasts in the Sex EDGE-U-cation series. As you know these programs take a look at the fascinating world of unconventional sexual expressions and lifestyles, fetish sex and kink. We touch on topics both familiar and exotic. And you can count on our investigations to be interesting, stimulating as well as very informative, because we chat with prominent educators, practitioners and advocates from all walks of life.

And to kick off this new year, I have something quite extraordinary for you. Today, we feature the first woman of color to speak in this series. She is a sex worker. She brings a refreshingly honest, unique and sassy voice to the ever-growing chorus of exceptional guests in this series. I am honored to welcome Voluptuous Lynn.

She describes herself as “An Ebony Cougar In Sin City,” but I think you will agree with me that she’s more akin to a tiger. Her no nonsense approach to life, sexuality and sex work if truly refreshing, and she’s knock ‘em dead funny too. Oh, and you should know that today’s show is unusually long. Lynn and I got to shootin’ the shit and I completely lost track of time.

Lynn and I discuss:

Hey sex fans,

Back in early February of this year I launched this new series of podcast interviews called Sex EDGE-U-cation.

I remember telling that I could guarantee that our investigation will be interesting, stimulating and very informative, because we would be chatting with prominent educators, practitioners and advocates of unconventional sexual expressions and lifestyles from all over the world.

Well then, here we are ten months later and we’re still going strong. My first guest in this series, Dart, introduced me to today’s guest way back in February. But its only now that I finally have this opportunity to introduce her to you. Join me in welcoming the amazing Andrea Zanin. She is my last guest in this series for 2009, and she’s a humdinger, don’t cha know.

Andrea is also from Toronto, as is Dart, and like him she is internationally known and respected. She’s a writer and educator within the queer, polyamory and BDSM/leather communities. And she bring a unique voice to this ever growing chorus of exceptional guests in this series.
