Jessie Sage, Dr. PJ Patella-Rey Launch 'Sex Industry Book Club' Podcast

PITTSBURGH — Jessie Sage And Dr. PJ Patella-Rey, hosts of the recently concluded "Peepshow Podcast," have launched a spinoff podcast, "Sex Industry Book Club."

The new podcast focuses on writing done about the sex industry by sex workers, sex professionals and sex enthusiasts and is the first devoted exclusively to books, noted a rep. Like traditional book clubs, "Sex Industry Book Club" will read one book per month, while Sage and Patella-Rey talk to authors and other industry professionals about the books.

Listeners are encouraged to be active participants by submitting audio or written questions for guests to discuss.

The first episode aired last weekend and centered on Dr. Heather Berg, author of "Porn Work: Sex Labor and Late Capitalism."

"Given the current climate of rampant sexual repression, I think it's crucial that we build broad political coalitions and that our show can contribute to this necessary work," Patella-Rey said.

Sage noted they have covered the sex industry from a wide variety of angles over the years via their company, Peepshow Media.

"I'm ready to narrow our focus by highlighting books by and about the industry," Sage said. "As a writer myself, in the process of writing my first book, I can't wait for the opportunity to highlight the phenomenal writing and storytelling that comes out of our community."

"Sex Industry Book Club" has partnered with Assembly Four, who will be posting show transcripts on its official blog.

"We love the work Jessie and PJ have done with 'Peepshow,' and we're over the moon to have been approached for such an important resource to be hosted on Tryst.link," said Loa Hunt, co-founder of Assembly Four and Tryst.

"Sex Industry Book Club" can be found on its newly established Twitter and Instagram profiles.
