Ep.118 - Interview: Akira (@akirathahun)

Author: Danica September 7, 2022 Duration: 55:29
Akira (@akirathahun) is a 28 year old lesbian SWer of British-filipina heritage. She got her start in SW 11 years ago in the height of the era of personal Craigslist ads with her ex girlfriend. Akira is also 7 years clean from her0in and recently thoughtfully re-entered SW as a dr*g abstaining individual. (TRIGGER WARNING for this episode: we will be discussing dr*g use and survival SW. ) This episode we sit down with Akira and cover a ton of topics: her entrance into SW; her dr*g addiction and her recovery journey; her experience doing FSSW; her decision to re-enter into SW; and how it is for her being a lesbian doing “straight” SW. Akira is extremely vulnerable and honest in this episode and we found her story and journey so inspiring! Thank you for listening! Have a wonderful week and happy wh0re-ing! NOTE: If you or someone you know is struggling with dr*gs, Wellness Together Canada is a 24 hr phone/ chat line that is accessible across all of Canada toll free 1-866-585-0445

Hosted by Danica, 50 Plus a Tip is a conversation between two stripper best friends who pull back the curtain on their real lives. This podcast navigates the messy, funny, and often misunderstood world of the adult entertainment industry from the inside. You’ll hear their unfiltered stories about the job’s unique challenges and unexpected triumphs, blending personal anecdotes with broader discussions on society, health, and culture. The tone is candid and frequently comedic, because sometimes you just have to laugh at the absurdity of it all. Alongside their own perspectives, Danica and Riley bring in special guests to expand the narrative, offering a platform for diverse voices within their community. Their goal is straightforward: to replace harmful stereotypes with genuine human experience. By sharing the highs and the lows-or as they call them, the (b)lows-they create an intimate space for listeners to understand a profession shrouded in stigma. Tuning into this podcast feels like sitting down for a brutally honest, and often hilarious, chat with friends who have seen it all. It’s about the reality behind the glitter, the economics beyond the stage, and the personal stories that rarely get told in mainstream conversations.
