Summary

This was a peculiar episode because frankly, the topic wasn’t on my radar until a female brothel owner from Nevada contacted me wanting to share her story. That interview was broadcast in the following episode but the suggestion led me to to this episode. At the time, I had been dusting off my Piers Gaveston episode which I have been kicking down the road since episode one though it eventually aired this year. But, having spoken to ”Kiki Smith” I was intrigued by her motivations, her business savvy, and the fact that she was in control of production versus individuals who work in the same realm at the behest of others. I wasn’t entirely sure how such a controversial and divisive topic would be received by listeners but it was the most listened to episode of 2023. This episode contains adult content and is not suitable for young listeners. In this episode, I speak with Kiki Smith — not her real name. But she is a stay at home mom and a married woman who makes a quite lucrative living posting as KS Wifey on websites including Only Fans, many vids and even her own domain: kswifey.com. What led her into this industry? How does it affect her relationship with her husband? What are the pitfalls and perks? A candid discussion about a growing yet controversial segment of the sex industry. Guest: Kiki Smith KS Wifey on Onlyfans KS Wifey Official website
