The StickyBeak

• Living In Virtual Reality

  Virtual reality isn’t just for gaming anymore—it’s transforming the way we live, connect, and even love. In this episode of The StickyBeak, I explore how VR is blurring the lines between the digital and physical worlds in ways we never imagined.First, I speak with Starh, a VR enthusiast who has spent over 30,000 hours inside virtual reality over the past seven years. For him, VR isn’t just an escape—it’s a way of life. From socialising and even sleeping in VR, he shares how this technology is reshaping human interaction.Then, I dive into the intersection of VR and intimacy with Philipp Fussenegger, founder of Cybrothel—the world’s first AI brothel. We discuss how VR is revolutionising the sex industry, redefining companionship, and pushing the boundaries of connection and pleasure in a digital age.This is one of my favourite episodes to date—a fascinating look at the future of human experience in an increasingly virtual world.Thank you so much to Starh and Philipp for sharing their experiences.

Rooted in love, betrayal, and revenge, this tale takes us back to 11th-century Palermo—a time when cultures collided, passions ignited, and a forbidden romance led to a chilling fate.Why did a love affair between a Sicilian maiden and a Moorish trader end in tragedy?

• Vagina Dentata

  For centuries, whispers of Vagina Dentata—the myth of the toothed vagina—have haunted folklore, warning of man-eating wombs and flesh-shredding femmes fatales. But beneath the horror lies something deeper: a story about power, fear, and control.In this episode of The StickyBeak, we rip into the origins of this myth, from ancient cautionary tales to its lasting grip on pop culture. We’ll explore its role as both a weapon and a warning, and dissect the hidden messages behind the fangs.So brace yourself—because this one has some serious bite. 😏🔊 Sink your teeth in now!Got an Idea for the Podcast?I’d love to hear from you!

• Gay 4 Pay

  What would you do for money? No, really... have you ever found yourself in a job you never expected to be doing? Perhaps it was something outside your comfort zone, something people judged you for, or maybe it just paid really well.This week, we’re sitting down with Zane Robinson, better known in the adult film industry as Elliot Finn. Zane made a name for himself as a performer in gay films, despite identifying as straight. The self-proclaimed “only straight bottom,” Zane found a niche that worked for him… even if the world didn’t quite understand.This conversation isn’t just about the sex industry, labels or what happens on set. It’s about identity, perception, and the choices we make to build the life we want. Thank you to Zane Robinson for taking the time to have a chat.
