I’m in More Sexy Podcasts at Odeo.com!

I’m #3 in iTunes podcasts, and Softpedia (not the Wall Street Journal) calls my podcast, Open Source Sex, “the podcast that disturbs the most”.

Who is Softpeida?

I just did another interview about this whole thing.

I have to go get on a plane now. Yay!

It’s almost like furniture porn, but actually it’s Antiques Roadshow smut by Dante Davidson, and my thoughts on all the sex and podcasting hoo-hah: Open Source Sex 15 (MP3).

I said “hoo-hah”. Heh. Okay, right now I need to pack for my trip to New York tomorrow to meet up with the Extra Action Marching Band, and I’ll also be making an in studio apprearance on the Derek and Romaine show friday night at 8pm Eastern Time; listen in for free on the Sirius website. Or, busy yourself with these great videos — apparently the drummer in David Byrne’s band wears a camera on his head (helmet?) and he took these great videos of the Marching Band, one from the Fillmore and the other from the Hollywood Bowl. Runor has it that Byrne and his gang are excited to see Extra Action again in New York, unofficially, so things could get interesting…

Podcasting: Talking Dirty on Your iPod

Quote: “You don’t need big breasts or big advertisers,” says Violet Blue, the host of “Open Source Sex.” “It’s the ultimate democratic tool for sex education.”

Hells, yeah! I actually said that.

Okay, and here’s the thing: I’m #9 in podcasts in iTunes (and totally freaking out about it), above ESPN and Adam Curry (who will spank me, I’m sure). So if I’m in the top ten podcasts in iTunes, why won’t they put up my “album” artwork? It’s just a picture of my lips and a microphone. Sex ghetto, I’m telling you. Sex will never be treated normally or seen in a healthy light until these outdated ways of thinking about it die like the dinosaurs. They just toss it all in the “porn” dustbin, without even realizing that to do a porn podcast, you need to have substance and good writing, you need to entertain and keep an audience, two things that porn utterly lacks. Like, when was the last time you saw a well-written porn film, or heard porn movie dialogue that didn’t make you cringe? Podcasting is a whole new genre, and until iPod syncs photos and video with pictures, thus creating a visually distracting medium, we’ll have quality sex content in adult podcasts. Until then, anyway…

Odeo.com is the rockin’ podcast resource (and what a gorgeous site — that makes all the difference in the world to me); I had the pleasure of being interviewed at their offices last wednesday for their podcast. Next week I’ll be doing a brand-new sexy podcast roundup on their site, and I’ll be featuring some hot new erotic podcasts. Listen to my odeo.com interview here.

In between Fleshbot posts and pinching myself about all the podcast attention I’m getting today, I did a little craft project: I pimped out my iPod Shuffle. With one of those little “Bling It!” kits from Amazon (marketed to teens for use on cell phones), I sat with a small pair of scissors and applied tiny light blue and white “ice” rhinestones. How sexy will it look buried in my cleavage? Way. Total craft time: 20 minutes. Satisfaction: absolute. Jealousy when I shop in the Castro: insurmountable.

More Shuffle bling pics start here (click ‘next’ for more).
