Last night, the Pleasure Chest—West Hollywood's emporium of sensual toys, kink paraphernalia and educational material for sexual adventurers of all stripes—hosted the taping of an upcoming episode of Tristan Taormino's incredibly popular sex-talk podcast “Sex Out Loud.” Tristan's guests were Nerdist Network's sexpert Sex Nerd Sandra, BBW extraordinaire April Flores, BDSM Master (in all senses) Orpheus Black and the ultracharming porn star/erotic philosopher Conner Habib. The event was packed—a curious and inquisitive crowd that kept the sex-positive panel on their intellectual toes.
