  • Summary

  • Bawdy Storytelling – dubbed 'The Moth for pervs' by the LA Weekly – is the nation’s original sex and storytelling series. Founded, emcee’ed and curated by sexual folklorist Dixie De La Tour, Bawdy Storytelling features real people and rockstars sharing their bona fide sexual exploits. Bawdy Storytelling’s one-of-a-kind approach to sex-positive personal narrative has coaxed liberating tales out of everyday people, creating unforgettable experiences for performers and audiences alike. These stories aren't memorized. Storytellers aren't reading from cue cards. This is honest-to-badness story time with true sexcapades and poignant, hilarious, transformational tales at each and every show.

    Episode 296: ‘A Stubborn of Queers’ (Kelli Dunham)
    Jul 12 2024
    When you’re incapable of an emotional connection, can hookups fill the gap? When Nonbinary Polyamorous Storyteller Nurse Comedian Ex-Nun Kelli Dunham loses multiple partners to cancer, she looks for community in a Brooklyn LGBT Grief Support Group, and ends up loafer-deep in anonymous sex among the scrubby pines of Fire Island. Plus, Dixie talks Sex Geek Summer Camp, Bawdy in Portland and her new How to Be Bawdy virtual workshop. #GriefSex “We must make love in between the bombs” - Paul Monette Song: ‘F*ck the Pain Away’ (Peaches) About the Storyteller: Kelli Dunham is the nonbinary ex-nun polyamorous storytelling nurse comedian that’s so common in modern Brooklyn. Kelli has appeared on Showtime and the Discovery Channel, PBS Stories From the Stage, the Moth Mainstage, the Cinderblock Comedy Festival, the Women in Comedy Festival, and nationwide at colleges, Prides festivals, fundraisers, at oh so many nursing conferences and even the occasional livestock auction. Kelli's latest show, Second Helping, is coming to Ithaca, NY this week (July 12th) to Ann Arbor Michigan on August 2nd and OshKosh, Wisconsin on August 16th. Hate live shows? Second Helping with Kelli Dunham, Kelli's hilarious and earnest new podcast–inspired by all the questions she gets about asking for, receiving and learning how to accept help– is produced by Kinehora Production and debuting early this fall.

  • Episode 295: ‘Orgasm Leader Board’ (Kevin A. Patterson)

    Episode 295: ‘Orgasm Leader Board’ (Kevin A. Patterson)
    Jun 19 2024
    Has a bad breakup ever made you think ‘the only way to get over someone is to get under someone else’? Author and Ethical NonMonogamist Kevin A Patterson is feeling a bit lost and confused, so he grabs his Bang bag and orchestrates his own gender non-specific traveling hand orgy. For one entire day, he schedules tag team handjob deliveries, because making people feel good, feels good. So much driving, so many g-spots and vaginas…and as the clock counts down, the competition is getting fierce. Who will rank #1 in orgasms on the dry erase board? Song: ‘Trophy’ (Charli XCX) About the Storyteller: Kevin Patterson is an active member of the Philadelphia polyamory community. He's been practicing Ethical NonMonogamy since 2002 after opening up a relationship that eventually became his marriage. In April of 2015, Kevin started Poly Role Models, an interview series for people describing their experiences with polyamory. Poly Role Models was part of a drive and a desire to change the way our lives and communities are viewed. To continue that discussion of polyamorous representation, Kevin has extended the blog's work into the writing of the book, Love's Not Color Blind: Race and Representation in Polyamorous and Other Alternative Communities. Along with co-writer Alana Phelan, Kevin launched a sci-fi novel series, For Hire, Operator that centers characters of color as well as other marginalized identities. Want more of Kevin?

  • Episode 294: ‘First Nude, Last Nude’ (Dirty Lola)

    Episode 294: ‘First Nude, Last Nude’ (Dirty Lola)
    Jun 15 2024
    Have you ever cried because you hate the body you’re in? Netflix celebrity Dirty Lola gets onstage at Bawdy in Baltimore to tell the story of Sir, a kind Texan with a Southern Drawl who slides into her DMs to propose an arrangement. A fan of her Titty Tuesday posts, Sir suggests a year of virtual service, and quickly becomes Lola’s online Dom. Soon her submissive assignments begin to battle the negative self-talk imprinted on her by magazines, bullies, social media and family. What a difference a year - and being showered with love - can make to your self-esteem! And a recent PNW transplant asks: We know that Bawdy can get you laid…but can Bawdy help you love your new city and make the right friends? #BodyImage #LonelinessEpidemic Song: ‘Chunky’ (Bruno Mars) About the Storyteller: Dirty Lola is an award-winning sex edutainer, speaker, and self-proclaimed dildo slinger. Known for her live sex ed, Q&A show Sex Ed A Go-Go, and as a Sexpert on the Netflix docuseries The Principles of Pleasure, Lola has spent over a decade working to end the stigma and shame surrounding sex and sexuality. In addition to her educational projects, Lola has brought her unique brand of sex-positive sex education to brands such as Shag in Williamsburg BK, Spectrum Boutique, B-Vibe, Le Wand, Blush, Freya, Womanizer, and Spencers Gifts. Dirty Lola’s Sex-Ed-A-Go-Go is happening on Saturday, June 22nd in Brooklyn NY.

Come for the titillation. Stay for the connection.

Dixie is an amazing storyteller, and has a huge heart of gold. Her passion is bringing people together to feel safe and loved, accepted and included! - no matter our sexuality.
Using Bawdy as a platform, Dixie helps us connect through our shared experiences. These stories help us understand people who might be very diffrent from us. Maybe we aren't all celebrated storytellers, but most of us know the pain of losing a beloved pet. Maybe we don't have a BDSM fetish, but who hasn't felt fear of rejection when sharing something intrinsic to ourselves for the first time.
She calls herself a Sexual Folklorist, and that fits. History books are great for dates and locations, but to know people, look to their words. Their lives are shared through diaries and court records, paintings and poetry. Our lives and values are recorded in our folklore. And a huge part of these lives and values are our morphing views on sex. Thank goodness we have Dixie to record them!
