Come In, We're Open With Austin Langely Ep.23 (Strawberry Queen Chris Wellman)

<p>This show features open and honest conversations with host, Austin Langley. This week on the podcast we have the very funny and extremely open book, Chris Wellman. Austin begins the show with a story of his first and last rodeo, (until the kin rodeo is born) and the two discuss their recent sexual experiences with Chris's being a real doozie. that leads to Chris explaining "pre-prison sex", how the van life chose him, and his childhood background of moving around military bases around the US. We learn how Chris became the "Strawberry Queen", what led to the dissolving of his relationship with his Dad, and why he eventually left the church. (Taking church tactics, later to the kink community. Chris tells us how harmful abstinence can be in both the sex and drug community and explains how he stepped up to educate those that don't know the issues that come with lack of preparation and communication. There's no shame in getting tested, and safety in all forms reduces harm, and increases pleasure. Chis now acts as the resource he could've used as a teen, by working with Colorado CAL (center for alternative lifestyles). Towards the end we talk a bit about comedy and how Chris has worked his sex life into his material, and his orgins of making jokes about himself from his adolsecence when he had to make fun of his trembles before the other kids could. by owning the joke, Chris could own the laughter. Guests on the show are encouraged to be genuine, while no subject is off the table. It is a judgment free space to talk about those subjects that aren't normally discussed in everyday life. Guests open up about those stories and personal experiences that maybe they haven't shared before or would like to get off their chest. The goal is to be unrestricted and transparent.</p>
