Beyond OnlyFans: Alice Lovegood’s Journey into Kink Education

AJAMU X: Punk, Pleasure, and the Politics of Black Queer Softness

Join Bethany on The Sassy Show as she sits down with renowned photographic artist Ajamu X in his studio for an intimate conversation about black queer bodies, pleasure, sensuality, and the radical act of gentleness.  From his post-punk roots in Northern England to his darkroom practice, Ajamu shares his philosophy on creating softer representations of black masculinity, his inspiration from the artist Rotimi Fani-Kayode, his love of old-school African-American porn magazines, and why he'd rather be called punk than queer.  Expect honest talk about foot fetishes, the sensuousness of image processing, navigating the art world as a black queer artist, and why his advice to younger artists is simple: be kinkier, be sexier, push it further.  This is a conversation about feeling rather than just seeing - from the darkroom to the dungeon, honey.  Get to know Ajamu's work on ig @ajamustudios [https://www.instagram.com/ajamustudios/?hl=en-gb] and via his website ajamu-studio.com  [https://www.ajamu-studio.com/] Interview by Bethany Burgoyne @bxsassy2 [https://www.instagram.com/bxsassy2/?hl=en-gb]  Filmed by Ciaran Christopher @ciaran.christopher  [https://www.instagram.com/ciaran.christopher/?hl=en] Produced and edited by @_thesassyshow [https://www.instagram.com/_thesassyshow/?hl=en] Keep up to date on all the sass via thesassyshow.com [https://www.thesassyshow.com/] or follow us on IG @_thesassyshow [https://www.instagram.com/_thesassyshow/] Come join the family!

From The Slums to Spotify Podcaster to Self-Published Author - meet Sangeeta Pillai

In this powerful episode, award-winning podcaster and South Asian feminist Sangeeta Pillai joins The Sassy Show to discuss her debut memoir Bad Daughter.  From growing up in Mumbai's slums to landing on Times Square billboards, Sangeeta shares her journey of breaking cultural conditioning, surviving mental health struggles, and challenging the white middle-class gatekeepers of UK publishing. After 39 rejections despite her success with the award-winning Masala Podcast, she self-published her book 'Bad Daughter' - and she's here to tell other creatives why they should stop waiting for permission.  We dive into healing beyond therapy, the power of being a "bad daughter," and why resilience isn't just about surviving - it's about becoming bigger, bolder, and more yourself.  This conversation will inspire you to choose your own path, no matter who tells you it's impossible.  Get your hands on Sangeet's book Bad Daughter worldwide  [https://linktr.ee/SoulSutras] Follow her on IG @soulsutras  [https://www.instagram.com/soulsutras/?hl=en] Check out her website: soulsutras.co.uk  [https://www.soulsutras.co.uk/about-sangeeta-pillai/] Head to the Bad Daughter website [https://baddaughter.co.uk/] Keep up to date on all the sass via thesassyshow.com [https://www.thesassyshow.com/] or follow us on IG @_thesassyshow [https://www.instagram.com/_thesassyshow/] Come join the family!
