Serving customers from across the globe, Bella’s offers a myriad of exclusive amenities, including VIP accommodations and a selection of exquisitely designed erotic specialty rooms.  Madam Bella is always fighting for a better experience for the sex workers she works with. Most recently, Bella is advocating to change the language on sex worker licences to show greater respect for women working in the controversial space. Bella also founded and funds the Onesta Foundation, an action group with a mission to support Nevada sex workers and advocate for prostitution legalization throughout the United States. More on the Onesta Foundation can be found here: https://onestafoundation.org/ Madam Bella  has owned and operated the brothel for over 30 years and can speak at length about the ins-and-outs of legalized prostitution in Nevada and what it's like to manage one of these unique businesses.

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.
