Sniffies' Cruising Confessions

This week, Xavier Blanco, an escort and adult content creator, shares his journey from childhood fantasies to the realities of sex work. He candidly discusses the hard work behind the scenes and what newcomers should know about hiring sex workers. The conversation challenges societal stigma and highlights the emotional labor involved in the profession. Xavier also emphasizes the importance of safety, health practices like PrEP, and the diverse experiences within the industry, all while keeping things lighthearted with some humorous banter.

Few things provoke judgment in the queer community like hooking up with someone closeted. In this episode, Gabe and Chris offer a reappraisal of the controversial figure of the “downlow lover” through a spicy interview with celebrated writer Brontez Purnell. Brontez gets honest about his experiences hooking up with DL men on Sniffies, and unpacks the Y2K-era media firestorm that made “downlow guys” into public enemy #1. Then, our hosts interview an anonymous DL dude about his secret life hooking up with men while in the closet.   Follow Sniffies' Cruising Confessions: cruisingconfessions.com   Try Sniffies: sniffies.com   Follow Sniffies on Social: Instagram: instagram.com/sniffiesapp X: x.com/sniffiesapp TikTik: tiktok.com/@sniffiesapp   Follow the hosts: Gabe Gonzalez: instagram.com/gaybonez Chris Patterson-Rosso: instagram.com/cprgivesyoulife   Guests featured in this episode:  Brontez Purnell instagram.com/brontezpurnellSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Writer and activist Leo Herrera discusses his manual on cruising, 'Analog Cruising', with hosts Gabe and Chris. They explore the history and evolution of cruising culture, safer sex practices, and navigating cruising spaces. The conversation also touches on online presence, a game of 'pump and dump', clowns, and the Sniffies logo design.

Think being a c**dump is easy? Think again–there’s a lot involved in planning a successful pump and dump. For our first episode, Gabe and Chris talk to legendary load collector Scott Carslake about planning a pump and dump (with the help of Sniffies), what to watch out for, and when to say, “enough!”    Follow Sniffies' Cruising Confessions: cruisingconfessions.com   Try Sniffies: sniffies.com   Follow Sniffies on Social: Instagram: instagram.com/sniffiesapp X: x.com/sniffiesapp TikTik: tiktok.com/@sniffiesapp   Follow the hosts: Gabe Gonzalez: instagram.com/gaybonez Chris Patterson-Rosso: instagram.com/cprgivesyoulife   Guests featured in this episode:  Scott Carslake: x.com/muscledcumhole Jonah Wheeler: x.com/ShowOffJonahSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
