    The Cost of Pole: Injuries, Recovery & Longevity

    Send us Fan Mail This week on Pole Obsession, we’re getting real about injuries, recovery and what happens after 20+ years in pole. Joining us is OG poler Daisy, who opens up about undergoing a double hip replacement after decades of dance, showgirl work and years of splits. Felix Cane shares some of the wild injuries she’s experienced from elite-level pole tricks and being literally thrown off poles, while El somehow survived with comparatively minor injuries despite a lifetime of dance and gymnastics. Between us, we’ve spent decades training, competing and performing — from ballet and gymnastics as kids to over 20 years inside the pole industry. And for once… we actually stayed on topic.

    Who Runs the Pole Industry? Pole Fame, Expo Invites & Industry Politics

    Send us Fan Mail This week on Pole Obsession, we’re diving into the hierarchy within the pole industry… and asking the questions everyone thinks about but rarely says out loud. Who actually holds the power in pole? How do people monetise the industry? How do dancers get invited to expos and major events? And what really makes someone become a “big name”? Of course, in true Pole Obsession fashion, we completely derail along the way — covering everything from parenting moments to blocking people on Instagram. Plus: ✨ Beauty Tip of the Week: Hair ✨ Performance Tip of the Week: Costumes It’s chaotic, honest, funny, and surprisingly informative.

    Cancel Culture in the Pole Industry: The Damage We Don’t See

    Send us Fan Mail Cancel culture isn’t just a buzzword — it’s happening inside our own community. In this episode, we unpack the pile-on mentality that’s quietly shaping the pole world. The divide between strippers and pole dancers. Studios tearing each other down. Online attacks over pricing, opinions, and perceived mistakes. We’re sharing real, anonymous stories from people who’ve been targeted, silenced, and pushed out — not for doing the wrong thing, but for speaking up. Because when outrage spreads faster than truth, it’s not about accountability anymore. It’s about who shouts the loudest. Featuring Frances, who opens up about an incident, this is a conversation many people won’t want to have — but one that needs to happen.

    The Red District: From the Clubs to Building a Studio That Actually Gets It

    Send us Fan Mail Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of drug and alcohol abuse, violence, and experiences within strip clubs that some listeners may find confronting. In this episode of Pole Obsession, we sit down with Red, the founder of Canberra’s newest pole studio, The Red District. Red shares her journey through the club industry and how those experiences ultimately led her to open her own studio. She speaks openly about the realities of working in clubs, from the highs to the darker moments, including stories involving alcohol, theft, and violence that can occur behind the scenes. We also talk about the moment that pushed her to build something of her own. After running shows and feeling unsupported in a previous studio environment, Red realised that if she wanted a space where dancers from the club industry felt truly welcomed and understood, she would need to create it herself. The Red District was born from that idea, a studio built with a deeper understanding of the industry and the people who come from it. This episode explores the many different paths into pole. Not everyone arrives the same way, dancers, performers, athletes, and club industry workers all bring different experiences to the pole community. A raw and honest conversation about authenticity, creating safe spaces, and building the studio she couldn’t find.

The conversation also touches on the role substances, prescription medication, smoking and vaping can play in people’s lives and relationships, and how these environments can affect mental health, decision-making and safety. This episode is raw, honest and ultimately about resilience, boundaries, and finding your way back to yourself after being broken down by someone you trusted.
