Red Umbrella Talk Podcast Debut Sex Work Series

Taking its name from the global symbol for sex worker rights, the Red Umbrella Talk Podcast is shot on location at the Museum of Sex in New York City. Hosted, written, and produced by Desiree and directed and produced by Stagg, the series answers questions about sex work from the public. Guests include adult performers, strippers, escorts, Dommes, and legal experts. Desiree hopes to destigmatize the profession, humanize those in it, and bring clarity to a discourse that has too long relied on damaging misinformation.

“Since our first episode debuted on August 4th, the response has been phenomenal. After interviewing and interacting with so many sex workers over the years, I felt their voices needed to be heard. This was an incredible experience making the series, and I hope it will open a lot of people’s eyes to what it’s really like to be a sex worker,” says Desiree. “Although the five-part series has already been filmed, we’re looking at the bigger picture and want this to be a series on a major network or cable channel to reach an even wider global audience.”

In conjunction with CAM4 and MotorBunny, the series debuted earlier this month. The premiere episode features adult film performers Romi Rain and Lotus Lain. To watch “Episode 1: Adult Film Industry with Romi Rain and Lotus Lain, head to redumbrellatalk.com.
