  • Should be excellent. It’s not.

    I believe journalism should be exposing vital stories with first hand sources that the public need to know. In this way Tommie McDonald has quite the platform.

I’m sure Tommie means well. I just do... more

  • Behind the curtain

    A great podcast that shows the positives and negative of the porn industry. Great platform for the performers to tell their unfiltered stories. Very educational on so many levels of a industry that many claim not to watch, but we know they are.
