Sex EDGE-U-cation with Tonya Winter – Podcast #209 – 06/02/10

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

Ya’ll know June is Gay Pride month, right? And if you don’t believe me, ask President Obama. He made the official declaration again this year on May 28th, 2010.
As you may also know, he is the first president in our glorious history to do so. So hurray for him! And an even bigger hurray for all us queer folk on this 41st anniversary of the birth of the modern gay rights movement.

I have a knock-you-out line up of guest for this special month. And to kick things off, so to speak, we take another audio field trip. I have the distinct pleasure of welcoming another Seattle-based personality, the veritable Queen of Kink Couture, Tonya Winter. We visit with her in her cavernous new workspace, don’t cha know.

And you should also know that you’re getting a double bang for your buck today, because Tonya is another twofer. She is here as part of the Sex EDGE-U-cation podcast series as well as The Erotic Mind series. So yeah for that!

Tonya and I discuss:

  • Seattle being a hotbed of perversion.
  • Her new workspace in the SODO district of Seattle.
  • What accounts for her remarkable success.
  • Her unique designs.
  • Her humble kinky beginnings.
  • Her commitment to community service.
  • Her creative process.
  • Her secret grand plan.

Be sure to visit Tonya at her websites HERE and HERE! She’s even on Facebook HERE!

See a slideshow of some Tonya’s brilliant work.

The Erotic Mind of Heidi Champa — Podcast #202 — 04/26/10

[Look for the podcast play button below.]

Hey sex fans,

After the last couple of weeks of nothing but Q&A, I am so happy to get back to The Erotic Mind podcast series today. And boy, do I ever have an exceptionally charming…and I might add smutty…guest for you to meet. I’m delighted to welcome Heidi Champa to the show.

Today we travel to the wilds of south-central Pennsylvania to spend some time with Heidi in her natural habitat. We discover that lurking behind her mild-mannered and unassuming exterior there is an erotic powerhouse. We also discover that she is just hitting her stride as a published author. So look out world! Which only reinforces my belief that there is a creative erotic impulse hidden in all of us; that once let loose it will transform us and our world. Exciting stuff this, sex fans!

And to show you what I mean, Heidi will read a tantalizing selection from the fruit of her Erotic Mind. It’ll make you want to touch yourself impurely; I promise.

Heidi and I discuss:

  • Her website and her collection of stunning eye candy.
  • Why she self-identifies as a smut peddler.
  • Writing under her real name.
  • Who is this Heidi Champa person anyway?
  • What, in her life, sparks her erotic creations.
  • The skill necessary for creating petite yet powerful works of art.
  • Writing a “snapshot”.
  • Using words that arouse as well as startle.

Touch Down

Product Review Friday is comin’ at ya!

We have another couple more adult products from SexToy.com today. The Dr Dick Review Crew members — Angie and Jada do the show and tell. Let’s get right to it!

Erotic Sex Positions DVD —— $18.57

Angie
I have the pleasure of introducing you to a wonderful educational DVD for couples. This is the very first video of its kind that I’ve ever seen. And I must say, I liked it very much.

I’ve watched some porn in my day. I can’t say that it turns me on all that much, especially the stuff that my husband enjoys. I know it’s all fantasy and I know that most of it is purposely geared to horny straight males, but the women in the movies are almost always characteratures; nothing more than sexual objects and bimbos. I find that annoying and not the least bit sexy.

I know this is going to sound weird coming from a straight married woman of my age, but I really like gay porn. There, I’ve finally said it out loud.

Anyhow, back to the Erotic Sex Positions DVD. This is sure enough sexually explicit, but it definitely isn’t porn. It’s instructional in nature. It’s presented by two women who work in porn — Crystal Lowe and Natasha Ray. This is a big plus in my book. They set a perfect tone for what we see in this DVD. By the way, they also collaborated on another video — ‘Seductive Sex Positions’.

This DVD features 27 erotic techniques and sexual positions. It has an instructional play mode and a lovemaking play mode. So you can use it to learn something new or use it as background sexual enhancement. There are three different couples in the movie, which adds to the interest level. It has what they call a ‘Tantalizing Foreplay Teaser,’ which is also fun. And there are interactive menus too. In other words, this is a pretty elaborate presentation and very professionally produced.

The hosts provide instructions while the couples demonstrate. Some of the positions are for the more adventurous. And frankly, one would need to be very fit, trim, lithe and supple to pull them off. But they were fun to watch nonetheless even if my husband and I could never do them.
Full Review HERE

Rechargeable Infrared Playpal —— $23.43

Jada
What we have here is a 7-inch, hard plastic, waterproof, rechargeable, dual-speed vibe. And if California Exotic, the manufacturer of the Rechargeable Infrared Playpal, had left it at that I’d have a sturdy basic vibe that I could recommend.

Unfortunately they decided to add some kind of cockamamie infrared heating element on the tip of the massager and they messed up the whole damn thing in the process.

Not only does the heating element not noticeably warm up, but in order to place it in the tip of the vibe they had to add this rubber flange or seal so as to keep the thing waterproof. And there in lies the problem. This flange, or whatever you call it, has a completely different texture than the hard smooth plastic. So even with lube this becomes a major sticking point, both literally and figuratively. It makes it impossible to be used on delicate parts, let alone insertion. Think of it rubber patch on a slippery slide. All is well till you hit that patch; then look out! This is particularly true for use in water where lube would be ineffectual.

From the looks of the package this item is designed to appeal to a younger crowd. And perhaps younger people have yet to acquire the ability to discern between a good product and one that sucks…and not in a good way.
