The summer is here and things are starting to get hot 💦 For our seventh episode of the season, we were so happy to chat with Toronto-based writer, performer, and sex worker advocate Andrea Werhun about the art of thirst traps. These sexually suggestive selfies are posted on social media by celebs and everyday folks to attract attention. We use this episode to unpack the following with Andrea:

• How empowering taking a thirst trap can be
• Is there anything that can be risky when sending these photos, such as revenge porn?
• How are celebs currently weaponizing or capitalizing off thirst traps for their own gain?
• Can thirst traps be feminist or are they all rooted in misogyny?
• Then we take a quick break for a segment where Ama chats with Gwen Adora, 2022 PornHub Top BBW Model, to give their best tips on taking thirst traps, gaining confidence in your body, and posting images that won't get you banned.
• Finally, we wrap up the episode by playing a game rating some of the best of the worst thirst traps on the Internet from celebs

Please purchase Andrea Werhun's brand new memoir, Modern Whore, out now at local bookshops!
