71: Eric Paul Leue: STD Testing, HIV, and PrEP
Eric is a sexual health and rights activist, the HIV Commissioner for LA County, and the executive director at the Free Speech Coalition (the trade association of the adult entertainment industry). As an important advocate for sex worker rights, Eric sits down with Holly to talk about all things porn politics. He explains our testing protocol in explicit detail, and answers so many of our questions: like why a two week window is considered a sufficient time period to successfully test for an HIV transmission, why the condom mandate is harmful, the difference in STI regulations between the straight and gay porn industries, and why the testing centers check for some STIs and not others. A truly informative and educational episode, if you really want to know about the real-life politics behind porn, this episode is a must-listen.
