8. Ben Bones

The Watchman: Ben Bones brought a 6'4", 230lb frame and nearly 20 years of security experience with him from the East Coast six years ago, but the transition from NYC and DC bars and music venues to Portland, OR strip clubs was still full of surprises. Today, Ben and I talk about the culture shock; he shares some of his wildest stories from Strip City, USA and gives some important insights on how to be a good patron.  All In A Day's (Sex) Work is produced by Blair Hopkins and brought to you in part by SWOP-Behind Bars. Music by New Orleans’ own Johnny Sketch and the Dirty Notes. Special thanks as always to Alex Andrews: to contribute to the good work she’s doing visit swopbehindbars.org and remember: All In A Day’s (Sex) Work is an ever-expanding narrative; if you are a sex worker, partner, patron, or other adult industry-adjacent person, I want to hear from you!
