There is no denying that it’s been a difficult time. But many people are using it as an opportunity to change things for the better. I’ve been having some thought-provoking behind-the-scenes conversations with colleagues from different areas of the industry, and in the interest of facilitating and promoting dialogue, I want to share some of those conversations with you in my new podcast, Hot Points.

The first person I had the pleasure of interviewing was Leya Tanit, a British performer who last year started Pineapple Support. Pineapple Support is a nonprofit that brings mental healthcare and emotional support to the adult industry. Recently I was able to interview her at the industry trade event the Phoenix Forum.
