  1. Not all social nudity is naturism or nudism. I feel this episode strayed well over that line. The venue for the mentioned show was described as an “orgy dungeon” and the person interviewed mentioned several very explicit sexual things & was clearly into social sex much more than social nudity.

    Surely there are many more actual naturist stories out there worthy of exposure rather than this episode’s topic.

    1. Indeed, there are many, many stories of relevance to naturism. This one has gotten a lot of media coverage including the New York Times so it seemed important to profile it so that people understand what it is and what it is not. We also previously profiled Cap d’Agde which is not naturist at all anymore but many people think it is. So in this case, you clearly got the message about what the Naked Comedy Show is all about which was our objective.

      1. Sad thing that happened to Cap d’Agde, as that was one of my first “exposures” to naturism, by means of looking at photos of it in FKK magazines at a friend’s house who’s family were naturists, and some of his family photos on holiday around the house as a youth. I always wanted to go there as an adult, and I was on my own. Never did. However, there are still tons of options in France, CHM Montalivet, Euronat, Bagheera, the sites by France4Naturism, and many more.

      2. I remember you commenting way back about the possibility of interviewing Gypsy Taub of “My Naked Truth,” despite that being on the more, you could say, radical end of naturism, given her stance on vaccines.

        With the recent events regarding her relationship with the man who attacked Paul Pelosi, I think it was smart that you did not have her own your show.

  2. Not an inspiring podcast episode at all, I’m not a prude by any stretch, but I found it a real turn off. Just my opinion.

  3. Interesting to see how a sex club could make a space where performers are comfortable with getting naked due to the culture of consent.
