    231 – Bates Motel

    Group masturbation parties have long occupied a discreet but distinctive place in queer sexual culture — from informal jerk-off circles and beats to organised bate clubs, private gatherings and events like Melbourne’s Stroke and Sydney’s JackALL. Jon and Craig are joined by Marc from Melbourne Wankers and Ben, founder of JackALL, to explore the history, culture and appeal of communal masturbation spaces. They discuss what makes a bate party different from a conventional sex party, the influence of saunas, porn cinemas and earlier queer gathering places, and how HIV, hookup apps and changing community expectations have shaped these events. The conversation also gets practical, looking at consent, etiquette, safety, intoxication, dress, pornography and the clear boundaries that allow attendees to relax. Marc and Ben reflect on why people attend, from erotic curiosity and voyeurism to friendship, intimacy, body confidence and the freedom of a sexual environment without expectations around penetration or performance. Finally, they consider whether events like Stroke could return, how community-led gatherings are evolving, and what someone curious about these spaces should know before attending for the first time.

    230 – Caught Up

    The Hide and Seek family is back together for a very busy catch-up. Joenas returns from Thailand with stories from judging Mr Bear International, including national costumes, bear pool parties, bouncing castles and the challenges faced by queer titleholders in countries where LGBTQIA+ people have limited legal protection. Craig takes us behind the scenes of the Australian Leather Competition, reflecting on the contestants, judging process, standout moments and Australian Leather’s plans to provide stronger mentoring for non-cis-male competitors. Then the team looks ahead to a packed calendar of bear, leather, pup and fetish events across Australia, including International Mr Leather, Southern Hibernation, Mr Australasia Bear, Sydney’s leather titles, Brisbane Leather Week and the Australian Pup and Handler Competition. It’s competitions, community, travel, titles and just enough inappropriate commentary to make it a proper Hide and Seek reunion.

    229 – More Than Meets the AI

    AI porn is no longer a fringe curiosity — it’s rapidly becoming one of the most disruptive shifts in how we think about sex, media, and consent. In this episode of Hide and Seek, Jon is joined by queer artist and technologist Leo Herrera to unpack what’s really going on beneath the headlines. We start by breaking down what “AI porn” actually means — from fully synthetic erotic content to deepfakes and “nudification” tools — and how these technologies have evolved from earlier forms of porn and online intimacy. As Herrera explains, this isn’t just a new format; it’s a fundamental shift toward hyper-personalised, frictionless sexual experiences that blur the line between fantasy and reality. From there, we dive into the ethical fault lines. Who owns the data these systems are trained on? Can consent exist in a world where images are scraped, remixed, and regenerated at scale? And what happens when anyone can generate explicit content of anyone else — with or without their knowledge? We also explore the real-world impacts: the rise of non-consensual deepfakes, the disproportionate harm faced by women, queer people and sex workers, and the ways this technology is already reshaping sexual development, relationships, and expectations. But it’s not all dystopian. We look at the potential for AI to enable new forms of expression, representation, and even harm reduction — while asking what an “ethical” AI porn ecosystem might realistically look like. This is a conversation about more than porn. It’s about power, technology, and the future of human intimacy — and whether we can build the language, norms, and safeguards fast enough to keep up. Listen now and decide for yourself: evolution, or something far more?   Find Leo on substack at https://leoherrera.substack.com/ Follow Tim instagram.com/beatzradio/ Follow Jon instagram.com/barbarylion/ Follow Craig instagram.com/white.dragon.339/ This episode was recorded on the lands of the Yalukut Weelam clan of the Boon Wurrung peoples.

    228 – Let Them Eat CakeMix

    What happens when content stops being something you scroll… and becomes something you experience? This week on Hide and Seek, we’re joined by CakeMix  https://linkin.bio/cakemix/ — a creator remixing porn into something entirely different: beat-matched, instruction-driven, and designed to guide your arousal in real time. Think less “watching” and more… participating. We unpack what porn remixing actually is, how music, timing and editing can shape desire, and why some people are swapping passive viewing for something closer to a shared ritual. From solo sessions to online parties, is this porn as choreography, community, and culture? We also dive into the hard questions: is this art, curation, or something new entirely? What happens when audiences become participants? And where does this all go next — VR, AI, or something even more unexpected?

    227 – Frightful Delightful

    Fear isn’t something we usually associate with pleasure… so why does it turn some people on? Kitty Katastrophy returns to Hide and Seek to explore one of kink’s most misunderstood dynamics: fear play. From knife play to interrogation scenes, we unpack what this kink actually looks like in practice — and why it’s far more about trust, imagination, and control than real danger. We explore how fear can heighten sensation, the role of adrenaline and anticipation, and why psychological play can be just as intense as physical kink. Then we get into the fundamentals: negotiation, consent, safewords, and the kind of communication that makes these scenes possible. Plus — we tackle myths, media misconceptions, and what fear play reveals about vulnerability, trust, and human connection, and Craig and Joenas are totally shocked!

    226B – Hey Mister DJ – PJ Knox

    From porn sets to DJ decks to live stage shows — PJ Knox does it all. This week, PJ joins Hide and Seek to talk about his journey through the adult industry, what’s changed in the age of OnlyFans and JustForFans, and how performers are navigating a world where content creation is more personal — and more constant — than ever. We dive into the realities behind the scenes: what makes a great performer, what audiences don’t see, and how porn today compares to the industry of even a few years ago. Then we shift gears into live performance — what it’s like bringing sexuality onto the stage, and how that experience differs from working on camera. It’s a conversation about creativity, career evolution, and finding your lane in an industry that never stops changing.

    226 – Hard Hitting Stuff

    Impact play might look simple from the outside — but there’s a lot more going on beneath the surface. Kitty Katastrophy joins us to break down one of the most common (and misunderstood) forms of kink. From hands to implements, thuddy to stingy, we explore the wide spectrum of sensations that fall under the impact play umbrella. We get into technique, rhythm, and why good impact play is as much about flow and connection as it is about force. Plus: subspace, aftercare, and how people build scenes that are not just physically safe, but emotionally grounded. Whether you’re curious, cautious, or already playing — this is a deep dive into the skills, communication, and trust that make impact play work.

    225 – I Am a Cameraman

    What does porn look like from behind the camera? This week on Hide and Seek, we’re joined by Third Officer, a camera operator working in queer adult content. We step off the screen and onto the set to explore what it really takes to film intimacy — technically, emotionally, and ethically. From building trust with performers to navigating boundaries, power dynamics, and consent, Third Officer shares what audiences rarely see. We also explore the surprising emotional side of the work: how filming sex can shape your understanding of intimacy, connection, and presence. Plus — we unpack myths about porn production, what makes a great scene beyond what’s visible, and where queer adult content might be heading next.
