Ep24 - Truth, Justice, and the American Whore: Siouxie Q
Manage episode 225163972 series 2424882
About Siouxie Q In 2010, Siouxsie Q left her retail job and began dancing at The Lusty Lady Theater, a unionized peep-show in San Francisco. Shortly after, she began her career as a sex worker while living in Inner Richmond, commuting to an apartment in East Bay to conduct business. Initially using the Internet primarily as a marketing tool, Siouxsie has stated that podcasts have "really transformed how I do business." By 2012, she had settled into her career and, at the urging of her boyfriend, began a regular, biweekly podcast as a way to speak out against California’s Proposition 35, Measure B. Originally called, “This American Whore,” the podcast’s name was eventually changed to “The WhoreCast” after a dispute with "This American Life," the public radio program. After the passing of Proposition 35, the podcast was expanded to cover a broad range of topics. In 2013, she was featured on CNN after organizing an Obamacare registration drive dubbed the “Healthy Ho’s Party.” The event, designed to encourage sex workers to enroll in newly established insurance exchanges, was declared a success, with nearly 40 attendees filing enrollment paperwork.
