In this episode, we’re joined by Cam Jennings from ToyChats.com, a platform built entirely around user-generated sex toy reviews.

We talk about why ToyChats exists in the first place, how the platform actually works, and what makes a review useful versus just noise. Cam breaks down the difference between brand-driven reviews and reviews from real people, how reviewers get paid, and what they’re looking for before a review goes live.

We also dig into why ToyChats actively wants everyday people reviewing toys, not just influencers or industry insiders, and why having a wide range of bodies, experiences, and opinions makes sex toy shopping safer and more helpful for everyone.

If you’ve ever wished you could hear how a toy actually works for someone who isn’t being paid by the brand, this conversation gives a really clear look at how ToyChats is trying to fill that gap.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.599
If you've ever bought a sex toy and thought, I wish I knew how this actually worked for someone like me, you're going to love this episode of Big Sexy Chat.

00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:18.960
We're joined by Cam Jennings from ToyChats.com, a platform built entirely around user-generated sex toy reviews.

00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:34.799
Cam breaks down how toy chats operate, what they look for in reviews, why honesty matters more than hype, and how they're creating space for real people to help other people make better, safer toy choices.

00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:36.399
Let's get into it.

00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:46.000
Hey, you made it! Ha! You're just in time! For a little something juicy with crystalline talking fat.

00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:48.799
Sex big feels hot take stinky.

00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:51.679
We're breaking all the rules, babe.

00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:53.200
What you think?

00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:56.159
Sexy chat.

00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:58.560
Say it back down big.

00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:00.399
Sexy chat.

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:02.079
Let's go.

00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:11.840
Hi all.

00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:13.200
Welcome back to Big Sexy Chat.

00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:16.159
My name is Crystal, and I'm here with my lovely co-host, Murph.

00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:17.040
Hi Merf.

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:17.599
Hi.

00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:20.079
And we have extra special guest today.

00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:27.359
We I know him through the sex toy industry, and he's been involved in the sex toy industry forever and a day, I as far as I can tell.

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.200
It's in different ways.

00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:33.519
And um anyway, today he's here to represent this company he's working for called Toy Chats.

00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:33.920
Hi, chat.

00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:34.959
Hi, Cam, welcome.

00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:36.879
Hey, how are you doing?

00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:37.920
So I'm great.

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:38.400
Thank you.

00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:50.159
Um, so of course I know you through Pure Pleasure PPP, the group where we um kind of have a bunch of like about 5,000, I think, people who are in the sex toy industry, somehow some kind of adjacent to the sex toy industry industry.

00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:54.879
And we met via there, and then you know, Cam has great posts and stuff.

00:01:54.959 --> 00:02:00.239
He's very much a stoner, he's very cannabis forward, and uh, we love that here at Big Sexy Chat.

00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:02.799
And anyway, welcome, happy to have you today, Cam.

00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.439
Tell us everybody a little bit about Toy Chats.

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:12.159
Um, so Toy Chats is uh right now the largest sex toy review platform on the internet.

00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:12.719
Hell yeah.

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:24.800
Uh we're user generated, so it was a little easier to get to be the largest because most of the platforms are uh either single writer or a group of staff riders.

00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:26.800
So we're user generated.

00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:40.000
Um we pay$40 per approved four to 10 minute video review that anybody can submit on any sex toy that is available for purchase in like mass quantities.

00:02:40.159 --> 00:03:02.080
So as long as there's more than 10 of them in existence, essentially, you can uh review it on toy chats, say what you like, and that gives the consumer that's shopping um an easier, uh not easier, well, yeah, easier, but also a more educated process in purchasing their sex toy, which we all know for a variety of reasons.

00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:11.439
There's uh a big lack of communication between manufacturer and consumer, and uh many different elements of a sex toy that you need to make sure are safe.

00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:13.120
Cam, I was gonna say two things.

00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:15.840
First of all, you have a voice for podcasting and radio.

00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:17.360
Perfect, really nice voice.

00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:24.560
Yeah, and then um I feel like toy chats is kind of like democratizing sex toy reviews.

00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.479
Often, sex toy reviews, you wonder, why did is this person being paid by that brand?

00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:34.080
But y'all are kind of like evening out the playing field, I think.

00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:36.080
That's the goal.

00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:44.639
Um, I feel the same way you do, to where when I read a review on one of our industry products, it feels very in-house.

00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:56.719
Most of the reviews seem to be housed on the manufacturer's website itself, which in my opinion makes it worthless, even if it is showing tagging back to somebody's social, et cetera, et cetera.

00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:59.919
Most of it is paid posting.

00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:09.120
Um we act as the middleman, so we pay the reviewer directly and we pay a flat rate no matter who it is.

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.080
Um, a lot of people are really excited for that$40.

00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.599
Others kind of poo-poo it and say they don't want it.

00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:16.160
That's fine.

00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:18.319
We'll pay it to who wants it.

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:27.519
But um when it's not the manufacturer paying the reviewer directly, I think that that makes for an honest review.

00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:37.600
And I don't think that 90-95% of the reviews out on the internet on toys are really honest reviews, including the bad ones.

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:39.600
Right.

00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:44.319
Like trying to get some other other companies, you know, looking bad and that sort of thing.

00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:50.560
I I do want to clarify, not necessarily other companies targeting other companies, but when you're angry, you're just angry.

00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:56.959
And I don't think that many of the critical reviews uh that I've read out there are too educated, they're just rage.

00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:04.800
And that could have come from the toy, or that could have come from just a bad experience with yourself, your partner not knowing how to use the toy, et cetera.

00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:05.839
I totally get it.

00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:09.360
But how do you how do you tell if a review is real?

00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.439
Like what does that look like?

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.959
Are there ways that you can kind of suss it out?

00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:23.279
Because I think of like AI now and all it would take to have a company just like, you know, go write a review, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, on multiple forms.

00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.839
The cool thing about AI is you can copy paste it and kind of check it back on itself.

00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:32.800
So Chat GPT will snitch itself out if somebody is using AI.

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:37.439
Um, a little bit of AI for structure, uh, there's no issue there.

00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:39.120
Uh, it's it's 2025.

00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:41.040
We just want it to be your words.

00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:45.040
Um but if uh AI gives you an outline, that's cool.

00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.439
I don't I I I do that all the time.

00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:50.879
Um, and I consider myself somewhat of a professional writer.

00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.000
Actually, now I you know work for media company.

00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:54.800
Hell yeah.

00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:59.920
Um as far as making sure the reviews are real, that's why we're really pushing for the video reviews.

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.040
Uh four to ten minute video review doesn't really lie.

00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:09.839
Uh good luck at this point in the game getting AI to do a solid four to ten minutes of anything.

00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:12.639
Um so that's not a concern there.

00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:19.519
And then on the written reviews, they're pretty uh, you know, we pay twice we pay twenty dollars for written reviews.

00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:21.920
Um, and they're pretty detailed.

00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:25.120
Like we we put out a questionnaire, we need a few paragraphs.

00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:29.040
Not every uh review gets approved on toy chats.

00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:40.800
Like we do, we do only put out the premium reviews that people uh like I'm hoping hoping is uh you guys and your listener base that just put a little bit of time and elbow grease into it.

00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:42.639
Now you don't have to be a professional writer.

00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:45.120
We have staff writers, we'll polish it for you.

00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.680
Um same with the video stuff.

00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.560
If you need help, contact at toychaps.com.

00:06:50.639 --> 00:07:01.920
Like we'll tell you what programs to use, we'll we'll point you in the right direction, you know, uh uh cap cut and free stuff that you can use because you shouldn't have any overhead when you're reviewing a toy for$40.

00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:05.839
Um so yeah, I hope that answered your question.

00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:08.079
I kind of felt myself going off on a rabbit trail there.

00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.480
What who how did they how do they get the toy?

00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:19.120
Uh so the first toy, uh, we ask that you um uh you obtain yourself, uh kind of like the audition toy.

00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:22.639
So it can be any toy, it can be something that you just bought that you still have in the box.

00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:24.639
We do prefer an unboxing video.

00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:29.040
Um, but for like a lot of BDSM gear, it doesn't really matter how new it is.

00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:33.600
So like you can review it as it is and say this is what it is.

00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:39.360
Uh that's your first review once that gets approved, posted, and you get paid out your$40.

00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:42.560
After that, we will send you toys for free.

00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:50.079
So um we work with a lot of different manufacturers from across the world at the at this point.

00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:53.680
We're working European, Asian countries, American countries.

00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:57.199
If it's a sex toy that's available for purchase, we're reviewing it.

00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:01.199
Um, so they will send us toys to send to our reviewers.

00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:04.079
Uh, and we obtain them by other methods, trade shows.

00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.600
You know, as long as it's new in the box, hasn't been used as a tester.

00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:12.720
Um, if it if it if it if it's ready for retail, it's ready for our inventory.

00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:18.160
So we have a pretty nice catalog, and we're always trying to add to it for all the manufacturers that are listening.

00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:27.120
You can always uh reach out to me at cam attoychhats.com, send you the address where to send stuff, send us as much stuff as you want, we'll send it for free to the reviewers.

00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:31.920
Um, and then the reviewers pick it out of our inventory and we ship it to them.

00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:33.679
So, questi two questions.

00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:35.039
Well, one's a comment.

00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:42.879
When I used to have a sex toy store, people was be like trying to return stuff, and I'm like, aren't you glad I don't take return sex toys?

00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:45.039
Like, doesn't that make you like really happy?

00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:46.399
Like, want to shop here?

00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:49.519
Because what if I was reselling someone who took a toy home?

00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:50.159
Gross.

00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:51.840
But anyway, I digress.

00:08:52.080 --> 00:09:05.360
When people apply, when people apply to be a toy reviewer for you, there's a process you look through the their their application, and then is there something that you were looking for or that you don't want to see, or like does it matter?

00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:09.759
Do you are there any like rules or guidelines about who can and cannot do this?

00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:12.000
We really just want to see realness.

00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:25.840
Um, we don't allow any pornography on our site, so um uh keep your genitals covered, and we're we're a little uh lenient on nipples, you know what I mean?

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:27.840
Um we don't want to see any hard drug use.

00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.600
We all have nipples, man.

00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:35.200
Yeah, we don't want to see any any hard drug use on the site, any excessive drinking.

00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:38.480
But if you're smoking a joint in your review, you know.

00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:43.759
Uh we're trying to be spicier than Meta, not as spicy as Pornhub, if that makes sense.

00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:52.000
Um and then as far as the reviewer, we're just looking for people that can speak clearly, look in the camera, deliver a good review with a good video presence.

00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:54.399
Uh, we're looking to be a little entertained.

00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:57.840
Um, you know, we want to hear some passion in your voice.

00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:04.480
Uh it's not for everybody, uh, but it is for more people than you think.

00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:08.000
And it is for more people than most platforms allow.

00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:10.960
TikTok is kind of cashed out right now.

00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.559
Like if you if you're not already a TikTok star, you're not gonna be a TikTok star.

00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:16.240
Instagram is kind of the same way.

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:28.559
Toy Chats is a new platform that you can platform yourself on, and you can you can bring people in to uh to see who you are, and it it kind of works like a link tree where you can guide to other social media.

00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:30.480
Not yet, it's in development.

00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:42.559
Um, but you can really advertise yourself and brand yourself on Toy Chats, especially for the people like us that revolve around the adult novelty industry, and we're always getting shadow banned left and right.

00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:55.519
I mean, honestly, with the work that you ladies have done on this podcast, don't you think you would have a lot more traction on it and a lot more success, even though you're doing great, if Meta would just let you meta?

00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:57.200
Oh, a thousand percent.

00:10:57.360 --> 00:11:13.519
We we had um the option back in the day where it would um like put forth our podcast to to people on Facebook and our our traffic, everything you know, just significantly drops after they stopped that.

00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:16.240
Yeah, they used to they used to have a place on the uh business pages.

00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:29.360
I have one business page that's half a million followers, so we could basically put our podcast there, and basically when we recorded our podcast, it was going live to that page automatically through Facebook, but they got rid of all their blogging or their podcasting.

00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:37.759
It's it's our goal to be able to platform groups like Big Sexy Chat to where you have a safe place to house your content.

00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:43.759
You get your message out there, people can like, comment, you know, it it leaks over to other social media.

00:11:44.080 --> 00:12:10.879
Um, but we want you to be able to have it out there and not have the anxiety that it's gonna get taken down and not get shadow banned by robot analytics and you know, just I've never understood the the the morality police in the payment processing world, in the web world, in the cannabis, even yeah, yeah, like it.

00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:20.080
I I can watch somebody get murdered on daytime TV, you know, they play Law and Order SVU at like 2 p.m.

00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:30.080
Um, but I can't advertise a sex toy, I can't have a conversation about sexual health, I can't have a conversation encouraging somebody to masturbate.

00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:32.240
The world's in a rough place right now.

00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:40.159
Like there's a lot of dark energy, there's a lot of non-hateful people hating each other type energy in the world right now.

00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:51.440
And if people just masturbated more, people just got off a little bit more, loved each other, loved themselves, uh, the world would be a better place.

00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:52.720
Less ragey.

00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:54.799
A thousand percent.

00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:55.679
Yeah.

00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:03.120
I do have two questions though that that kind of brought up when you were talking about um you can build your platform.

00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:05.919
Do you have like a top influencer?

00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:10.879
And then if you don't, just in general, like what are the contents of a good review?

00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:12.480
Sydney Screams.

00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:13.440
That's my girl.

00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:15.120
I love her so much.

00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:19.360
And we were friends before I signed on at Toy Chats.

00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:27.360
Um she she would always be around the trade show scene before I think she moved to Denmark or Amsterdam or something like that.

00:13:27.519 --> 00:13:29.679
Like she's on the other side of the world now.

00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:35.919
Um but I was really excited when I saw simply that she was reviewing on Toy Chats.

00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:42.159
Um, and since I've been working here, I mean she's she's the MVP in my eyes.

00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:48.000
Um, if anybody wants the crown, they need to watch what Sydney's doing, uh, follow her lead.

00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:51.279
Because she syndicates her reviews too.

00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:57.840
Um, if you upload a review to Toy Chats and upload it to your own website, and we don't care, we'll pay you 40 bucks.

00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:02.879
We just want your content, the rights to use it on Toy Chats, and we'll go out there and spread the word about it.

00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:10.480
If somebody comes to Toy Chats and then gets directed to your personal website, your personal blog, your personal brand, good.

00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:11.519
That's what we're here for.

00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:12.960
We're a social media site.

00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:21.759
So um we're not really we don't really see ourselves as competition to the reviewers, more so as a hub for all of them to get along.

00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:26.240
But yeah, Sydney Screams, um she's great.

00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:29.759
Our other review, uh Sarah B is one that I'm loving right now.

00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:35.679
Uh you can see her on um uh you can see her on Toy Chat.

00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:38.240
She's been doing a lot of like a kitten reviews.

00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:40.480
Um, I really like her energy.

00:14:40.639 --> 00:14:44.559
She is very opposite from uh from Sydney.

00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:48.320
Um uh who's the other one?

00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:51.440
I think Kinky Daniels, Kinky Daniels underscore T.

00:14:51.840 --> 00:14:54.399
Um, she goes hard.

00:14:54.799 --> 00:15:01.600
Like she goes, she gives like an unboxing review, and then the camera goes dark, and she gives a post-game report.

00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:05.120
Um Sydney is a fat babe if I remember correctly.

00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.600
She's a little tasted the lubes with the other cute girl.

00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:08.879
Sydney's our big girl.

00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:10.399
She's a fat babe, yeah.

00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:11.360
She's gorgeous.

00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:12.000
Yeah.

00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:13.919
I am I allowed to say that.

00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:14.879
Hell yeah.

00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:15.440
Hell yeah.

00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:16.159
Fat babe?

00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:16.320
Okay.

00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:29.679
Well, and that's that's really where I'm hoping that you know, doing this podcast makes your listening base and and your three know that not only are you welcome, we want you at Toy Chats.

00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:35.279
Um uh there's a lot of fat babes out there, you know what I'm saying?

00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:36.960
70% of the world.

00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:43.840
70% of the world, and also let's be real, y'all are just cooler.

00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:48.320
Like you'll walk into an adult story easier, you'll ask those questions.

00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:54.639
Um I am also a fat babe myself, so I know that we have to be funny and have a thick skin.

00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:56.639
Oh, yeah, thick skin, yeah, for sure.

00:15:57.360 --> 00:16:03.600
People ask me why I got my nipples pierced, is because I was tired of people looking at my man boobs when I went to the pool and took my shirt off.

00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:06.639
Now I take my shirt off and people see nipple rings.

00:16:06.720 --> 00:16:07.039
Yeah.

00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.559
I still have the man boobs, but nobody cares.

00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:12.159
Or maybe it's just a me thing.

00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:19.200
Um, but yeah, Sydney, Sydney definitely falls under the fat babe category and wears it proudly.

00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:23.679
Um, and I definitely hope that you join her.

00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:30.960
And um, if there's one thing that fat babes can use is uh encouragement, love, and community.

00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:32.399
100%, yeah.

00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:33.679
And good sex.

00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:35.440
And good sex.

00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:37.679
Fat people have hot sex all the goddamn time.

00:16:37.919 --> 00:16:39.759
Murphy said you had two questions.

00:16:40.000 --> 00:16:40.639
Oh, yeah.

00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.919
The other was um, what what do you think makes for a good review?

00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:52.879
Like, um, does there need to be like a discussion of the packaging or uh the like what makes for a hot review?

00:16:53.279 --> 00:17:04.160
I mean, me personally, I I would see the perfect review is kind of taking all of my favorite elements from you know the the creators I just mentioned.

00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:13.200
So like from an unboxing, seeing how it comes in the packaging, talking about, you know, reading the side of the box and talking about if it's TPE, silicone.

00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:18.400
Um you know, always you can never say use water-based lube on toys enough.

00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:20.960
Like that's like a free space on the bingo card.

00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:30.000
Um, and then going down, it's like, hey, this uh Bat Babe stuff, it the way this toy is shaped fits my body better than this.

00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:36.720
I really like this because it really works with my physical geography and geometry.

00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.440
Um, you know, we want that that personal account, what you're excited about.

00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:46.000
And if you're willing, turn that camera off and give us a post-game report.

00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:48.559
Just clean the toy off if you show it to us again.

00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:57.839
Uh would would you all consider, would Toy Chats ever consider putting like a fat approved or fat for fat people or some kind of checkbox?

00:17:57.920 --> 00:17:59.440
It's like, yes, search on these ones.

00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:02.400
These ones are all going to work for a fat body or a fat babe.

00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:09.279
Um, I might be able to offer big sexy chat specifically a flare if you come do lots of reviews with us.

00:18:09.440 --> 00:18:10.400
Uh cool.

00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:17.519
What what what we're working on rolling out right now, and I need to go to all my friends at the award shows and make sure that it's cool.

00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:21.519
I don't know if we need to, but I'm going to anyway because it's the right thing to do.

00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:29.279
Uh, but essentially, if any toy has won an award, uh, we want to add that flare into the review itself so it notates.

00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:43.039
Um, and and not on the the reviewer doesn't have to know, but every time we have that logged into our system, um, if it's won an ABN award, an X Bus award, uh uh was it Red Spot?

00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:50.400
There was a new one that uh, or maybe not a new one, but one that's new to me that I I came across while we were looking for everybody that awards sex toys.

00:18:50.640 --> 00:19:06.240
So I think that would be really cool in that functionality that we're working on, um, to be like big sexy chat approved, because in my peer view, you are the ultimate authority for uh uh fat babe sex toys.

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:09.839
Like we're trying to get them to pay attention to us for sure.

00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:10.559
Yeah.

00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:25.279
Well, if if if I were to recommend somebody with your anatomy to um to say who should I listen to, who should I ask?

00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:27.680
I would I would say big sexy chat.

00:19:27.759 --> 00:19:29.279
I'd say Murphy and Crystal.

00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:30.079
Thank you.

00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:30.799
Yay.

00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:34.240
So and Sydney, you know.

00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:35.680
Oh, hell yes.

00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:37.759
I Sydney's always welcome when I'm around.

00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:40.720
Have you guys ever interviewed her?

00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:41.279
Not yet.

00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:42.319
We'd love to.

00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:44.240
Oh yeah.

00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:48.319
I I will definitely uh put her in touch with us.

00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:51.920
We would love to my recommendations all oh yeah, yeah, absolutely.

00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:53.920
We'll get we'll get you guys on Instagram.

00:19:54.079 --> 00:19:58.960
I would love to to see Sydney and y'all just be awesome together.

00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.599
Was at the um altitude show this last March.

00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:04.400
Yeah.

00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:06.240
I've met yeah, I recognize Murph.

00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:07.759
I've met Murph before.

00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:09.359
Yeah, Vegas.

00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:09.920
Yeah.

00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:12.880
Um, it it was a fantastic show.

00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:20.720
I I really like, oh, I I there's so many things that I'm just like, oh, there's a bunch of stuff that's supposed to come out like this month and next month.

00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:22.240
Like, let's go.

00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:33.759
Well, and that's why we want like YouTube specifically, and all three of you as as reviewers on our site specifically, because you get excited about that, you stay up to date.

00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:39.039
So the the resource of education that big big sexy chat is.

00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:42.640
I'm hoping toy chats can be an amplifier for.

00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:45.440
Murph, are you gonna try to go?

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:46.720
I'm gonna go to the show this march.

00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:48.000
Are you gonna try to go?

00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:48.559
Maybe.

00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:50.400
Yeah, I'll see if I can swing it financially.

00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:51.599
We're gonna do a Disney trip.

00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:52.720
Oh, okay, okay, cool.

00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:53.359
I gotcha.

00:20:53.519 --> 00:20:56.720
Um, and so Toy Chats had a table at the last altitude show.

00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:58.880
Uh Toy Chats was running around.

00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:03.039
Um, I was actually uh working with a different company earlier this March.

00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:07.039
I did not sign on to Toy Chats until uh August.

00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:10.160
What made you make the switch?

00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:15.920
Well, um I used to work I used to be the adult section director at Champ Strait Shows.

00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:28.960
So my uh my role in the industry and where I kind of made my name was being the bridge between the smoke shop industry and the adult boutique industry.

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:31.759
Um at my core on the cannabis guy.

00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:43.200
Uh I've been I've been I've been trying to break into the weed industry for 15 years, and uh uh I have, but I I seem to always more successfully land on my feet in adult novelties.

00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:44.880
I don't know why it's happened multiple times.

00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:47.599
Intersectionality, please.

00:21:48.319 --> 00:21:49.279
Intersect, please.

00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:51.519
All of it create a crossover.

00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:53.920
But I am the intersectionality guy.

00:21:54.079 --> 00:22:02.319
That that ultimate ultimately that is my reputation, that is my career, that's what I was before Toy Chats, that's what I'll be after Toy Chats.

00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:05.359
Like that's why people fuck with me.

00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:15.119
Um, but uh I left that job um at the end of last year, mainly because of the rise of seven hydroxy.

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:21.440
And uh I the spice epidemic hit my hometown pretty hard 10 years ago.

00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:32.640
Um, so I was starting to see patterns emerge, and I wasn't going to be the bridge that put the uh the faux opiate in adult stores.

00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:33.200
Yeah.

00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:35.200
Have somebody else fucking do it.

00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:37.519
Um so that was a really hard time for me.

00:22:37.599 --> 00:22:46.079
I picked up a contract with an amazing man named Kermit Lowry, uh uh selling uh point of sale systems.

00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:48.799
Um and done all right with that.

00:22:48.960 --> 00:22:50.160
That's not my thing at all.

00:22:50.319 --> 00:22:52.559
I still sell point of sale systems in his stores out there.

00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:53.519
We got a great one.

00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:55.839
Uh, but that's that's Kermit's thing, not mine.

00:22:55.920 --> 00:22:58.400
I'm I'm definitely a media and trade show guy.

00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:10.240
Um so I had been talking with Toy Chats for a while, but we finally, you know, finally decided that we had been dating and we decided we were gonna get married in August, if that makes sense.

00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:20.720
Um and I needed to take some time off and selling point of sale really allowed me for that time off, set me up financially a lot better than I was, honestly.

00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:24.880
And now I'm kind of I'm jumping back into the pool of where I like to be.

00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:26.640
So uh Toy Chat.

00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:28.559
If let me ask you a question.

00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:30.880
How long do you think Toy Chats has been around?

00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:31.759
Year.

00:23:32.319 --> 00:23:34.000
I think probably 12 years.

00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:34.880
Oh, really?

00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:36.720
12 years, huh?

00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:39.440
So yeah, we I love that.

00:23:39.599 --> 00:23:41.119
That means we're doing our job, right?

00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:44.000
Toy Chats has only existed since January of this year.

00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:45.359
Okay, cool.

00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:46.240
Nice.

00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:48.880
Toy Chats launched at uh ABN.

00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:50.480
Nice uh 2020.

00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:57.440
I was thinking I was thinking that Toy Chats had a long like build up to switch over to this type of platform.

00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:02.640
Um adult meeting zone was a thing, AMZ.

00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:11.920
Um the executives in my company decided that the manufacturing lane was a little oversaturated and they were gonna do their own thing.

00:24:12.079 --> 00:24:22.880
So um instead of battling the industry, uh, they were kind of the new guys and they decided that they wanted to be a resource, not uh a speed bump.

00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:43.279
Just a sidebar for those of you who don't know this point of sale systems with cannabis and sex toys, we have similar issues with the federal government in that they, first of all, with sex toys, even as generic and PG-rated as I sell them, like through, they consider me to be part of like the porn industry.

00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:55.920
So when you try to sell sex toys online, it's not that easy because just like with cannabis, you know, and they assume that I'm gonna be some people are gonna just like do chargebacks all day long and that there's gonna be fraud in anything that has to do with sex toys.

00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:59.359
And so we get lumped together, just like cannabis gets lumped together, all that stuff.

00:24:59.440 --> 00:25:02.400
So Cam definitely has a challenging part.

00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:08.559
I mean, he he can probably bridge both both, it could be the bridge to both industries, but it's tricky for a point of sale.

00:25:09.039 --> 00:25:18.880
Well, and also with you know, the the way that you say that cannabis versus uh or cannabis intersectionality between cannabis and sex toys.

00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:23.920
Uh, there's also a third player in there that's kind of in the middle, and that's the smoke shop crowd.

00:25:24.799 --> 00:25:35.599
So it's the challenge of trying to find intersectionality between smoke shops and cannabis, which also seems to be on my shoulders.

00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:40.319
Uh um, and then uh smoke shops and adults.

00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:48.160
And the request from adults is always can you can you finish the triangle over to cannabis, which is the hardest part.

00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:50.319
I've barely got the smoke shop to adult thing.

00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:51.279
Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:25:51.519 --> 00:26:00.000
You know, um, and not and not to the original plan at all either, but still doing it and haven't given up on it.

00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.880
Um I just don't have health insurance anymore.

00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:04.480
Morals are intact though.

00:26:04.720 --> 00:26:06.160
Yeah, good job.

00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:08.400
For those never not eyes.

00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:24.400
So, um, Cam, if you could uh if someone or several people start writing reviews and they all write the same zero stars review for this one product, like are y'all putting up you know sex toy reviews for people that just say this toy sucks or that gives it one star.

00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:25.920
And are you doing all everything?

00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:27.680
It doesn't matter how people rate it.

00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:31.839
I mean, think about the quality of a zero-star review.

00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:34.640
That's probably not going to exist.

00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:44.079
Uh to have a zero-star review, I it it it should be a a box that says there's a toy in it, there is no toy in it.

00:26:44.240 --> 00:26:44.799
Yeah, yeah.

00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:49.920
Uh, you know, it's it's like the age-old question is a good burger something or nothing.

00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:54.160
But people can write a one-star review though and give it to you, and y'all might put it up, right?

00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:55.920
Oh, absolutely.

00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:58.960
We we we put up all we put up all the bad reviews.

00:26:59.119 --> 00:27:03.599
As long as it's a quality review and honest, it goes up and it gets paid out.

00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:11.920
Um, you know, that circles back to kind of the original conversation of uh manufacturers paying for their own reviews.

00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:18.000
Well, of course, the reviewer is going to give it a good review because they want another job from you.

00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:19.759
That that's the harsh truth of it.

00:27:20.079 --> 00:27:25.599
What I used to do, I would say, look, if I love it, it's you know, three, four, or five stars, I'll share it.

00:27:25.680 --> 00:27:31.279
If if it's two or one, I would rather have a conversation first and say, hey, this sucks really bad.

00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:34.640
I don't really want to blast a brand if I don't have to.

00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:40.880
But um, you know, I like to have a conversation with them to say, uh, this is not good before I start putting anything out there.

00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:46.960
And that's okay because you're in the industry and you have relationships that you want to protect.

00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:55.119
Um, other reviewers that are in middle America and they don't work in the industry, they don't care.

00:27:55.440 --> 00:27:56.799
Yeah, yeah, for sure.

00:27:57.039 --> 00:28:03.200
Um, we would love all the content that you will give us or you will sell us for$40 a video.

00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:08.400
Um, but there will be the people out there that give bad reviews.

00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:21.440
Um I'm sure that we will find our era where we're starting to get so many bad reviews that we have to really put out uh more detailed standards and everything of what constitutes a one, what constitutes a five.

00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:23.519
Um, but we'll grow into that.

00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:25.200
We'll figure it out as we grow.

00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:30.240
And uh the way that we will find those answers is by listening to the community.

00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:31.359
What are the brands?

00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:33.440
How are theirs, how are the brands reacting?

00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:34.880
How are they reacting to y'all now?

00:28:35.200 --> 00:28:36.480
They're a little weirded out.

00:28:36.640 --> 00:28:37.759
It's a new thing.

00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:42.160
Um uh people in our industry are very traditional.

00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:47.200
So the uh the up-and-coming manufacturers, they're about it.

00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:48.960
They're they're all into it.

00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:51.599
They they want to get as many reviews up as they can.

00:28:52.079 --> 00:29:04.559
We're getting a lot of business from uh from new brands, which is very reverse because most of my network is the established brands, the founders, the you know, just the royalty.

00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:14.799
Um right now I'm I'm working with a lot of the people that still have another job, still have another career, and they're launching this toy and they're trying to get the word out about it everywhere they can.

00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:16.960
And that honestly does my heart good.

00:29:17.119 --> 00:29:18.240
Um, I like that.

00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:21.200
I I like help helping small businesses become big.

00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:22.160
It's my thing.

00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:37.359
Um, but yeah, the uh, you know, like my friends, the people I go to the bar with, uh like they're the harder sell right now, the ones that have companies that have are are 20 years deep in the game.

00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:42.640
Uh but we're figuring it out right now, even we're a year old.

00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:46.000
Companies don't become profitable until two years, if you're lucky.

00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:49.839
Uh we're we're lucky to have capital behind us.

00:29:50.240 --> 00:29:53.359
So really, I'm just trying to get them all involved.

00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:56.400
Um, I'm trying to get as many toys from them as I can.

00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.640
If I can sell them banner advertising or an email blast, stuff like that.

00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:02.640
Hell yeah, more money in the bank.

00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:07.920
But we're really taking the outlook of we're gonna build what we do first.

00:30:08.079 --> 00:30:10.240
Like we make money, we make sales.

00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:15.920
Um we don't make a net profit yet, but we're ultimately a service.

00:30:16.079 --> 00:30:17.599
We're we're like Facebook.

00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:25.039
And Facebook makes money because they offer a great platform that keeps you connected with other people.

00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:26.720
You're like the Yelp of Sex Toys.

00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:28.240
We're the Yelp of Sex Toys.

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:32.640
Carfax is also another one that we're we're kind of going for the model on there.

00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:46.640
Um, yeah, we want any anytime somebody has any question about a sex toy, we want to be the first place that they search the sex toy name and see what real people have to say.

00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:50.799
Get all those people at the at those boutiques with their get your cards in there or something.

00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:54.079
Make sure you go check, see what toy chat says before you buy this.

00:30:54.400 --> 00:30:56.160
Yep, we're we're working on it.

00:30:56.319 --> 00:31:09.759
Uh, we have pretty much standing offers out to manufacturers um and stores alike that hey, we pay$40 per video review that does not come out of your pocket.

00:31:09.839 --> 00:31:19.519
This is like a rebate for buying this toy in your store or even for the manufacturer putting the our QR code directly on your package.

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:29.680
Uh we'll do that with any toy that we deem quality that has good high ratings on uh on toy chats that we can stand behind.

00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:44.000
Um, we would love it if the Toy Chats logo on a manuf and QR code on any manufacturer's toy uh indicated trust within the consumer as if this is not going to break off in your ass.

00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:45.359
That's always a plus.

00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:48.480
I love to I love not going to the ER for a toy in my ass.

00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:58.400
It's it's Yelp, Carfax, and Oprah's book club are the three that I always say like this is this is the energy that I want to build toy chats into.

00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:05.920
Oh, remember when Oprah recommended the the rabbit from um not Hitachi, what's their name?

00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:08.400
Um Cal Exotics?

00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:12.880
No, the the original rabbit from from Sex in the City for my time.

00:32:13.039 --> 00:32:14.480
Vibrotex, Vibrotex.

00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:17.119
Oprah recommended the the Vibretex.

00:32:17.920 --> 00:32:25.839
Oprah recommended the cordless one, and then Sex in the City is the one that had the original, the pink one with the three C batteries or D batteries.

00:32:26.079 --> 00:32:29.519
The only time D batteries, flashlights, and and the but the rabbit.

00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:31.759
You taught me some history.

00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:34.640
I did not know that Vibrotex was the original rabbit.

00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:39.759
Yeah, and then there they made the uh cordless one that Oprah put on her list, and then it went crazy again.

00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:47.759
So first we had a big surge with the Sex in the City episode where what's her name wouldn't go to brunch because the girls they had to have an intervention to get her out of the house.

00:32:48.000 --> 00:33:00.079
And then and then Oprah recommended the purple uh Vibratex uh core list is three triple A batteries, and then the original had three D or C three C batteries, so good shit.

00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:03.039
And it was made with uh body safe uh vinyl.

00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:05.039
Body safe vinyl.

00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:06.160
I think that's what it was.

00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:11.839
It's been a while now, but um yeah, I got into this like in 2004, so it was about that time, right around there.

00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:12.640
And um, yeah.

00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.279
Oh, yeah, I sold a million of those damn Pearl Rabbits.

00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:16.160
Oh man.

00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:19.359
I I know which toy you're talking about now.

00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:23.279
I just never put two and two together that it was the magic wand people that it is.

00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:25.200
The magic wand people indeed.

00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:27.680
They just have all the good ideas over there, don't they?

00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:30.000
You know, they live in the Napa area, hello.

00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:31.599
It's a good life up there.

00:33:32.400 --> 00:33:35.440
Fair, yeah, and they just uh made a waterproof one.

00:33:35.599 --> 00:33:35.839
Hello.

00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:37.920
Can't go wrong with that.

00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:47.440
Cam, I want to know, have you ever seen any of these vibrators that are supposed to be like uh vape and a vibrator?

00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:50.640
Have you seen those toys that like they're trying to do some kind of crossover?

00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:51.599
I've never seen any of the.

00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:52.319
Oh, I have one.

00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:53.039
Do they do okay?

00:33:53.759 --> 00:33:54.799
No, I have one right here.

00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:55.920
Do they vibrate well?

00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:57.279
Do they vibrate enough?

00:33:57.599 --> 00:34:01.279
They kind of look it's from Maya M-I-A or something like that, M-E-I-A.

00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:03.200
Do you ever see that, Murph?

00:34:03.519 --> 00:34:04.640
M M-I-I-A.

00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:05.519
Something like that.

00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:06.319
Yeah, I just don't know.

00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:06.960
No, don't know.

00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:08.800
Like, do they are they any good?

00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:10.880
I have two of them running around here.

00:34:11.119 --> 00:34:22.559
Not only are they one of the not only is the vaporator one of the best vibrators you will ever use, it is um what it's my preferred 510 thread battery.

00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:26.320
So if I'm going to smoke a cart, I don't know where it is.

00:34:26.880 --> 00:34:30.639
I have one here, but I don't want to step away from the podcast long enough to find it.

00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:33.840
Um, it is a fantastic product.

00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:37.119
It is a grossly underrated product.

00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:46.400
Um, it if you're going to use a vape cart, it is the battery I recommend, whether you're going to use the vibrator function or not.

00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:50.480
I cannot endorse the vaporator hard enough.

00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:55.360
Um, and yeah, anything by Maya, Maya's motors are insane.

00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:56.320
How do you spell that?

00:34:56.480 --> 00:34:57.599
Is it M-A-Y-A?

00:34:58.159 --> 00:34:59.519
It's M-A-I-A.

00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:02.960
It's it's one of my favorite companies.

00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:07.920
And you had actually said something about returns on sex toys that made me think about them.

00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:20.000
Um, Maya, like a kitten, and sports sheets are probably my three favorite companies as a potential consumer right now.

00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:31.760
I mean, we all know I get hooked up, but uh like if I'm gonna spend my money on a brand, it's gonna be Maya Like a Kitten or Sports Sheets because they all come with lifetime warranties.

00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:33.760
I did not know that.

00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:38.559
Um, if I'm missing a company that has a lifetime warranty, I apologize.

00:35:38.880 --> 00:35:47.039
Uh but yeah, um those three companies are all built with fantastic people.

00:35:47.280 --> 00:35:52.159
They have fantastic products and they stand behind them with a lifetime warranty.

00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:58.159
And if you ship the toy back, they look at it long enough to identify that it's that toy, throw it away.

00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:00.320
Ship you another one.

00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:03.280
Um we do love sports sheets a lot.

00:36:03.360 --> 00:36:05.199
We've we definitely love their products.

00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:12.719
Sports sheets, um, you know, because I'm I'm I am a a BDSM person, I am very kinky.

00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:15.199
Um that is that is my thing.

00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:24.880
Uh and I've sports sheets really seems to be uh breaking the glass ceiling on quality bondage gear in adult stores.

00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:27.679
Um Cal Exotics does a pretty good job.

00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:31.840
There's others that have pretty good stuff, but there's like a cap on it.

00:36:32.079 --> 00:36:42.000
Uh Sports Sheets is really hitting quality that feels artisan and feel like and feels like you spent a couple hundred bucks on it, not 50.

00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:44.400
Sports Sheets also are very fat friendly.

00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:45.519
Yes.

00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:47.360
That's hell yeah.

00:36:47.840 --> 00:37:02.159
They came up with the first um doggy style strap made for, I believe they came up with the first product made specifically for fat people, which is the doggy style strap from Sports Sheets, and then they have several other great, amazing products for fat babes now.

00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:05.199
And you know, I know there's others, but I think they were the first.

00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:14.800
I actually clipped it out and did a promo with it.

00:37:14.960 --> 00:37:16.800
Yeah, it was a good one, a really great review.

00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:19.280
Yes, I love her so much.

00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:20.800
Yeah, she's great for sure.

00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:25.039
She's really hey, so this is kind of related, but not completely.

00:37:25.360 --> 00:37:32.000
Um Cam, do women assume that you're just down to fuck because you sell sex toys?

00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:34.239
Because that's what they assume about women that sell sex toys.

00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:35.840
Like you're just down to fuck like right now.

00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:37.599
You're just gonna jump on my knob right now.

00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:38.000
Do they?

00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:45.199
I mean, I know men are usually down to fuck, but do do women make assumptions about you that you're in the industry, so you must be like a freak or whatever.

00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:45.920
Yes.

00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:46.400
Uh-huh.

00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:57.199
Um the last the last couple years of my dating life and personal sex life have been very hard uh being front-facing into the industry.

00:37:57.840 --> 00:38:04.079
Um half of it being uh females that are too forward with me.

00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:09.280
Um, the other half of it being uh females that are too assumpted with me.

00:38:09.679 --> 00:38:13.840
Um so yeah, that that has has definitely been a struggle.

00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:16.480
Uh when people say, Oh, you sell sex toys, so cool.

00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:20.000
It's like, yo, dude, I work with a bunch of masturbation executives.

00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:23.119
Like, none of us are really getting laid like you think we are.

00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:34.239
Um but uh you know, being being one of the younger people in the industry, it has uh the last few years have been a lot of unexpected challenges.

00:38:34.559 --> 00:38:42.079
My first stint in the industry was a little bit easier because I was still on drugs and did people that were on drugs.

00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:51.679
But since since I got clean and you know, since I I I got my life turned around and on the horse and trying to be an example and a role model and all that shit.

00:38:51.920 --> 00:38:56.559
Um yeah, uh it's it's been rough.

00:38:57.519 --> 00:38:59.119
Growth, it's hard work.

00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:00.559
Lately it's been cool.

00:39:00.719 --> 00:39:01.599
Lately it's been cool.

00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:03.519
You know what I mean?

00:39:03.679 --> 00:39:08.960
But like uh uh yeah, up until like late last month.

00:39:12.719 --> 00:39:16.800
Yeah, like like like I said, like just don't touch me there until you ask me.

00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:19.360
Like I I I have I have consent too.

00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:20.239
Yeah, of course.

00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:21.760
Yeah, yeah.

00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:24.159
I I even ask people if they're can are you a hugger?

00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:24.800
Can I hug you?

00:39:24.880 --> 00:39:30.719
Because I I don't want to hug anybody that doesn't want to be hugged, and a lot of people don't want to be hugged, but we assume they're hi, and they're like, not everybody wants to be hugged by you.

00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:33.199
You know, so you should ask for consent for all that stuff.

00:39:33.519 --> 00:39:41.679
I had a feeling that men were because they make a lot of people make a lot of assumptions like in the vanilla world about you if you're if you like toys or you sell sex toys, they're just so sure.

00:39:41.760 --> 00:39:44.320
And I'm like, God, dude, you couldn't possibly afford me.

00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:46.400
Honestly, there's no way I have standards.

00:39:46.480 --> 00:39:47.440
I know that's shocking to you.

00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:49.840
I'm fat and I sell sex toys, and I have standards.

00:39:50.000 --> 00:39:50.400
Woo.

00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:51.280
Crazy.

00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:53.199
Most of the assumptions are easy.

00:39:53.360 --> 00:39:59.519
Honestly, the thing that bothers me most is actually my male friends that will like send me porn or like joke porn.

00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:01.280
And I don't want to see that.

00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:02.480
I see an alphabet at work.

00:40:02.639 --> 00:40:03.280
You know what I mean?

00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:04.880
It's like, well, you're in the industry.

00:40:05.039 --> 00:40:06.960
I thought that you were the guy to send this to.

00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:10.639
It's like, dude, I'm no, I'm not.

00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:11.920
Yeah.

00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:17.280
I had um when I worked in forensics, uh, it was it was gruesome.

00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:21.119
And people would be like, Don't you love that new serial killer podcast?

00:40:21.280 --> 00:40:24.559
And I'm like, no, like I live this all day long.

00:40:24.639 --> 00:40:28.800
Like, I don't, this is not, I don't want that's not my way of calming down.

00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:34.960
I get that it's yours, but when you see and deal with this stuff, it's you're not interested in the same way.

00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:36.239
Yeah, definitely not.

00:40:36.719 --> 00:40:37.920
And there's so many examples.

00:40:38.079 --> 00:40:40.719
I I grew up, my dad was a politician.

00:40:40.880 --> 00:40:44.320
Uh, last thing I want to talk about any daily week politics.

00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.079
Last thing, you know.

00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:55.440
So it when you're when you're engulfed in it for work or for other reasons, don't don't pile that shit on people.

00:40:55.599 --> 00:40:56.559
You know what I mean?

00:40:56.719 --> 00:40:58.880
Like, I'm down to talk about toys any day.

00:40:59.039 --> 00:41:00.800
I'm down to talk about sexual health any day.

00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:02.639
I'm down to give advice any day.

00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:04.400
Don't send me nasty shit.

00:41:04.480 --> 00:41:06.639
Don't ask, don't act nasty around me.

00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:15.280
And don't think that because I work in the industry that it's okay to grab me, that it's okay to touch me, that it's okay to, you know, because it's fucking not.

00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:16.880
Yeah, never is.

00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:19.840
What's what's what's what's a core day?

00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:21.920
I'm glad I'm glad we talked about that.

00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:23.199
What's next for toy chats?

00:41:23.280 --> 00:41:24.159
What are y'all excited about?

00:41:24.239 --> 00:41:26.000
What's what are you focusing on right now?

00:41:26.239 --> 00:41:27.760
Or for 2026?

00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:32.719
Just all these new developments are growing so fast, it's kind of hard to keep up with.

00:41:32.880 --> 00:41:39.840
Um, you know, we have so many new reviewers right now and working really hard on getting our inventory piled up with more toys.

00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:51.440
Um uh we are coming out with a new program, hopefully at the beginning of the year, where essentially there'll be more options than the$40.

00:41:52.079 --> 00:41:56.320
Um, because once we pay you out$600, like we need all your personal information.

00:41:56.480 --> 00:41:59.440
We have to like issue you a W-2, everything like that.

00:41:59.679 --> 00:42:04.719
A lot of people aren't down with that, but they are down with like a PlayStation or something, you know?

00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:05.280
Totally.

00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:10.480
Um, so we're working on getting more rewards in there, we're working on getting more toys in there.

00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:20.639
Um, we are working on just more touch points where we can put toy images um and uh toy references.

00:42:21.119 --> 00:42:30.480
Um, you know, we're we're really excited for this quarter one trade show season between altitude and ABN and everything else that's going on.

00:42:30.639 --> 00:42:37.280
Uh, because it's really our time to ask questions, to ask questions to the manufacturers, say, hey, we've opened up this line of communication.

00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:39.199
It's there, it's not going anywhere.

00:42:39.519 --> 00:42:42.159
People are going to review your toys no matter what.

00:42:42.239 --> 00:42:44.239
Like you're you're you're involved, you know.

00:42:44.400 --> 00:42:50.559
Um uh even if you don't have a Facebook account, you still end up involved somehow at least once a year, right?

00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:53.679
Uh, so that's how Toy Chats is set up.

00:42:53.840 --> 00:43:11.199
So we're working really hard to build out communication between ourselves and the manufacturers so that we can be the best resource we can be for them, and that we're making sure that we get their message across to the consumer the way that they want it told.

00:43:11.599 --> 00:43:21.280
Um, at the same time, we want to make sure that they know that it's very easy to hear consumer voice now where it hasn't been, at least the last 10 years.

00:43:21.440 --> 00:43:21.599
Yeah.

00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:25.280
Unless you're popular, good or bad, like nobody knows about stuff.

00:43:25.360 --> 00:43:33.920
It's like, yeah, we know about the rabbits and we know about you know this the stuff that people like get stuck up their butts, but like that's pretty much it.

00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:42.079
You know, there's no middleman, and that's the stuff where you're going to a store, a boutique, you know, and you're trying to figure out, well, should we get this or should we get that?

00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:54.559
And so many of the brands, like that was a big complaint at the Altitude show was that you know, we have this style of whatever, and then immediately somebody copies it and is manufacturing it.

00:43:54.800 --> 00:43:55.440
So yeah.

00:43:56.559 --> 00:44:04.079
I mean, we're vibrotex who you know, they're they're one of the only companies I endorse that has never given me a dime.

00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:08.159
Yeah, I did not get VibroTex to work with me.

00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:12.079
Um and they know I'm salty about it too.

00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:23.039
Um but uh uh I mean you talk about such an innovative company, like the the the magic wand is probably the best toy on the planet.

00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:30.960
Um and uh, you know, putting that realization together out of what you said about uh the rabbit.

00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:32.079
They're the OG.

00:44:33.039 --> 00:44:43.360
I mean, it it I and and I know for a lot of my manufacturer friends that it's hard to put their stuff out there because they know it's gonna get knocked off if it's good.

00:44:43.679 --> 00:44:47.280
I was friends with a very short-lived company called Sexual Desires.

00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:58.559
Um and that was such a beautiful and tragic story at the end of it because they were they were around for like a year or two, but their their thing was low-priced sex dolls.

00:44:58.960 --> 00:45:03.920
And they put the low-price sex dolls out there and they did well enough.

00:45:04.079 --> 00:45:06.960
You still see them in stores, and you see them by other companies now.

00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:12.000
Uh, you know, uh the full circle guys, they make sex dolls.

00:45:12.239 --> 00:45:21.119
Dolls are a thing now, and that's you know, because in my opinion, sexual desires set the mold and and set things off, and now everybody wants to do dolls.

00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:32.079
I see that craze fizzling out a little bit, but I do hope that, you know, in my heart, I really do hope that Toy Chats is able to inspire some more original ideas.

00:45:32.239 --> 00:45:43.199
Uh, because at the same time of me sitting here saying, you know, my heart goes out to Vibretex because they may they seem to keep making this cool stuff that gets carbon copied.

00:45:43.360 --> 00:45:49.119
I'm hoping the feedback from Toy Chats that gets back to the manufacturers inspires more innovation.

00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:56.800
I'll tell you what we get asked about the most, and Murph and I is both aficionados and kind of snobby about our sex toys.

00:45:56.960 --> 00:46:06.239
Um, people get really upset when you spend, you've plunked down$225 for a sex toy, and then you get it home and you hate it, and there's no recourse.

00:46:06.400 --> 00:46:08.079
You're just out that$225.

00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:13.599
And Murph and I had both been in that situation before, too, where we're just like, God damn it, what a waste of money.

00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:16.000
Nothing most of the time you can't give it to your friend.

00:46:16.079 --> 00:46:19.920
Hopefully, you might have one or two friends you can say, hey, I cleaned this if you want to try it.

00:46:20.079 --> 00:46:23.280
But it that's where people get really salty, speaking of being salty.

00:46:23.599 --> 00:46:33.840
Well, and again, that's why I throw so many endorsements on Maya, like a kitten, sports sheets, because through those lifetime warranties, now is that covered?

00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:34.960
No, I probably not.

00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:36.079
I don't think so.

00:46:36.239 --> 00:46:45.119
Um, but I do know that that line of communication is open to the company where you would probably have a better chance getting a replacement of something that you didn't like.

00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:50.800
Um I don't think anybody will ever get a refund on a sex toy, nor nor should you ask for one.

00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:53.199
I think that's bad form in the game.

00:46:53.440 --> 00:46:57.679
Uh uh bad general karma, so to say.

00:46:58.079 --> 00:47:06.159
Uh but you know, if if there's other options with a company and they're willing to talk to you, you should at least try.

00:47:06.400 --> 00:47:15.679
And that that's why I I like supporting those companies that at least have the line of communication open with a lifetime warranty or something like that.

00:47:16.079 --> 00:47:16.400
Right.

00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:16.800
Yeah.

00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:25.039
Well, you know what I've seen, some brands will do, give you like a they'll give you like a 50% off, they'll they'll sell the next item to you, even though you already spent you 225.

00:47:25.119 --> 00:47:29.280
They'll say, here's 50% off an item, you can buy it from us directly, and we'll give you this discount.

00:47:29.599 --> 00:47:33.760
If we, if if you had the ability to say to the company, listen, it just didn't work for me.

00:47:33.920 --> 00:47:38.159
Like there's been things where it's like uh just because of my body type, it's not gonna work.

00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:40.880
And I didn't realize that purchasing it.

00:47:40.960 --> 00:47:49.760
And it's like, if you could give me a brand new one that I can give to a friend, like we're good, you know, like something like that, I would consider a great, you know, option.

00:47:49.840 --> 00:48:00.320
Or like you said, a 50% off coupe on something where it's like, okay, I sp I dropped some cash on this, so give me something back for you know what it is that's just not gonna work for me.

00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:02.000
A thousand percent.

00:48:02.320 --> 00:48:05.440
Um yeah, a thousand percent.

00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:07.519
That's a great workaround on a lifetime warranty.

00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:16.639
I don't know that they wanted us to crack that code, but that's definitely a a way to avoid waste.

00:48:16.960 --> 00:48:17.599
Yeah.

00:48:18.159 --> 00:48:18.800
Exactly.

00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:23.360
Those companies really don't have a lot of overhead on the on the lifetime warranties.

00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:26.800
Like it's a it's a pretty it's a pretty good advertisement to get away.

00:48:27.119 --> 00:48:32.239
Because really, at the end of the day, like how many times are you actually going to take advantage of that as a consumer?

00:48:32.559 --> 00:48:33.119
Exactly.

00:48:33.280 --> 00:48:37.599
And and if you're the brand that has that kind of reputation, like I see your Liberator hat.

00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:39.599
For us, Liberator is one of those brands.

00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:41.360
If there's a problem, they're gonna fix it.

00:48:41.519 --> 00:48:56.719
Like, and that keeps you going back, not only because it's just quality stuff, but you're you recognize, like, okay, I'm putting my my hard-earned money towards a product that and a company that is going to respect that I'm spending that kind of money.

00:48:57.039 --> 00:49:01.360
Liberator makes great products, they also make a great hat.

00:49:02.320 --> 00:49:03.920
I love this hat so much.

00:49:04.079 --> 00:49:07.920
This is one of my favorite hats, and I get so many compliments on it in public.

00:49:08.800 --> 00:49:11.360
Do they know that you love that hat so much?

00:49:11.679 --> 00:49:12.400
Uh yeah.

00:49:12.559 --> 00:49:13.840
Yeah, okay, too.

00:49:14.239 --> 00:49:16.079
Uh, I talk to Liberator every now and again.

00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:19.039
I'm not the closest with them.

00:49:19.199 --> 00:49:21.039
Oh no, I mean I wish.

00:49:21.599 --> 00:49:25.599
I've never gone after that personal sponsorship thing as much as I should have.

00:49:25.760 --> 00:49:31.199
A lot of the free toys that I get, I've re-given away or re-gifted as like trying to promote the company.

00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:40.320
So um Honey Playbox is one that's given me a lot of toys, and I made sure each and every one of those toys has gotten into somebody awesome's hands.

00:49:40.639 --> 00:49:45.599
Um I kind of went pro doing that with toy chats, if you think about it.

00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:49.360
I mean, if people loved love to do drawings for sex toys, that's for sure.

00:49:49.519 --> 00:49:54.320
Yes, and literary furniture and all that stuff, they just will give any have here's my email.

00:49:54.559 --> 00:49:57.360
Enter me because they want they want that free sex toy stuff.

00:49:57.679 --> 00:50:06.960
I put together a little basket for our uh fundraising event from all the little things that we've been you know received or you know got at the trade shows.

00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:17.679
And I tell you, the the person who won that basket, I could hear her scream from like four buildings away because she won and somebody told her and she was like, I want that sex basket.

00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:25.840
Like people are so amped for it, but we just don't we our culture has like dampened that, you know, like you're not supposed to say that in public.

00:50:26.079 --> 00:50:27.840
So, what's next for you?

00:50:28.000 --> 00:50:29.519
I mean, this brand new job.

00:50:29.679 --> 00:50:33.599
Um, you talked a little bit about what the company is gonna be doing next, but how about you?

00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:35.440
I'm gonna keep on with Toy Chats.

00:50:35.840 --> 00:50:38.159
Um, always selling point of sale systems.

00:50:38.239 --> 00:50:41.519
That's honestly really good money that I'm not gonna give up anytime soon.

00:50:41.840 --> 00:50:54.159
Um uh I am part owner of a uh new nootropic company that's gonna be launching earlier 2026, maybe later this year.

00:50:54.320 --> 00:50:57.280
Um, we're almost there, so keep an eye out for that.

00:50:57.519 --> 00:50:58.480
Really excited for that.

00:50:58.719 --> 00:50:59.360
What's it called?

00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:01.119
I can't tell you yet.

00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:02.159
Oh, oh, okay.

00:51:02.719 --> 00:51:03.840
He'd have to kill you.

00:51:04.239 --> 00:51:05.199
But you'll see it.

00:51:05.360 --> 00:51:08.400
Um get sued by my partners.

00:51:08.639 --> 00:51:11.760
Um but I can tell you that much, and I can tell you stay tuned.

00:51:11.920 --> 00:51:15.039
Uh, other than that, um, just trying to write music more.

00:51:15.119 --> 00:51:16.079
That's always been my thing.

00:51:16.320 --> 00:51:17.119
Songwriter guy.

00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:18.320
You can stay in Vegas?

00:51:19.679 --> 00:51:20.559
I'm gonna stay in Vegas.

00:51:20.639 --> 00:51:22.719
I was looking at moving to Missouri for a while.

00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:25.679
Um, if I go anywhere, I'll be going to LA.

00:51:26.239 --> 00:51:30.880
Some guy wanted to throw me the uh keys to a hotel and turn it into degeneracy land.

00:51:31.119 --> 00:51:36.400
So whole resort out in the Lake of the Ozark so we can smoke weed in, throw swinger parties at, stuff like that.

00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:37.119
Yeah.

00:51:37.360 --> 00:51:40.239
Almost did that, but I really I don't want to leave Vegas.

00:51:40.320 --> 00:51:41.039
I love it here.

00:51:41.360 --> 00:51:42.239
You like it, yeah.

00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:43.039
So yeah.

00:51:43.199 --> 00:51:45.440
I'll be kicking it in Vegas, running around.

00:51:45.519 --> 00:51:48.639
You can always catch me at almost any karaoke night in town.

00:51:48.719 --> 00:51:50.559
That's where people know my face here.

00:51:50.800 --> 00:51:53.440
Um, and selling dildos.

00:51:53.519 --> 00:52:05.119
Uh hopefully by the end of next year I'll have a retail store open, but they are really making that hard to want to do either in the smoke and vape or the adult world.

00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:07.519
So even in Vegas.

00:52:07.840 --> 00:52:08.800
Even in Vegas.

00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:13.360
I mean, we don't really have any privately owned sex stores out here.

00:52:13.519 --> 00:52:18.400
If you think about it, deja vu is a big chain, uh, Love Store's a big chain.

00:52:18.639 --> 00:52:21.840
Um, Romeo and Juliet's just landed out here.

00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:25.039
Uh Adam and Eve, we have a couple of those.

00:52:25.119 --> 00:52:26.960
We have a lion's den out here.

00:52:27.199 --> 00:52:35.440
Um but like the last, like the last mom and pop shop kind of thing that we had out here was a place called Love Toys A Lingerie.

00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:37.840
I'm obsessed with this story.

00:52:38.079 --> 00:52:50.159
Um it was recently bought out by the Fan 7 guys, but before that, there was I when I was working for the trade show, I called this store and I said, Hey, you should come out.

00:52:50.239 --> 00:52:53.760
And they're like, our owner's never in until six to midnight, six to midnight.

00:52:54.159 --> 00:53:01.280
So finally, off the clock, I get a hold of her, and we're talking, we're talking, and this girl's a badass, right?

00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:05.679
And she carries smoke and adults, so it's like, you gotta come to this show.

00:53:05.840 --> 00:53:09.440
And she's like, Do I have to be 21 to be there?

00:53:09.679 --> 00:53:11.280
What are you telling me right now?

00:53:11.440 --> 00:53:13.519
And she's like, I'm only 20 years old.

00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:15.760
I own this store to get me through college.

00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:17.519
Wow, good for her.

00:53:18.239 --> 00:53:20.400
I thought that was the coolest thing ever.

00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:22.400
Uh that's beautiful.

00:53:22.800 --> 00:53:37.440
So she, to my knowledge, was the last private owner in Vegas uh before selling out to Fan7, um, which I believe are the same owners as Callie's old store in Pennsylvania.

00:53:37.840 --> 00:53:42.159
I can't remember the name of it, but it's a really famous store in Pennsylvania.

00:53:43.119 --> 00:53:45.679
They do a lot of really taboo kinky shit.

00:53:46.000 --> 00:53:46.639
Sweet.

00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:57.760
The weirdest thing about Las Vegas sounds strange, but as a person who grew up there, and my mom's been there since 1949, um, there's a lot of Mormons and sometimes very, very conservative.

00:53:58.079 --> 00:54:00.639
And um it's hard.

00:54:00.800 --> 00:54:02.239
Some things are really difficult to do there.

00:54:02.320 --> 00:54:12.000
And it's I don't I haven't lived there for a really long time, but I know there's still a lot of Mormons own a lot of the businesses around there, and they don't really like sex toys and liquor and that kind of stuff.

00:54:12.960 --> 00:54:15.199
Liquor Mormons don't like liquor.

00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:24.880
Fun fact about me um I lived in Ohio for two years before I moved out here, part of that getting my life together story.

00:54:25.119 --> 00:54:28.960
Um, Afroman was the person that told me to come out there.

00:54:29.199 --> 00:54:34.880
As soon as I got out there, they just closed me, ditched me, no job, nothing, left me on my ass.

00:54:35.039 --> 00:54:38.639
And I got taken in by a couple of Mormons and I lived with them for two years.

00:54:38.800 --> 00:54:40.400
I had an Uber driver take me somewhere.

00:54:40.480 --> 00:54:41.760
I was like, you know where I can rent a room?

00:54:41.840 --> 00:54:43.360
He's like, let me ask my wife.

00:54:43.599 --> 00:54:46.800
Um when I I I'm still close with them to this day.

00:54:47.039 --> 00:55:01.840
And when I got into back into the industry and they all realized I was a sex toy plug, I've had more requests for free samples from my Mormon church friends than I have from any of my secular uh friends.

00:55:02.079 --> 00:55:04.320
But no, Mormons are actually freaks.

00:55:04.559 --> 00:55:07.679
Um all they're all they're allowed to do is sex.

00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:14.079
So when there's a sex toy guy in the family, they're actually uh I haven't I haven't gotten any grief from them at all.

00:55:14.480 --> 00:55:14.960
Good, good.

00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:16.320
That's great ever.

00:55:16.639 --> 00:55:22.639
And then as far as uh as far as like the culture in Vegas, everybody seems to keep to themselves.

00:55:22.960 --> 00:55:27.920
Um I haven't had too much too many issues as far as that, like being in Vegas.

00:55:28.000 --> 00:55:30.079
I think when you're in Vegas, you're just Vegas.

00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:34.320
You know, and and you know it's all around you.

00:55:35.039 --> 00:55:42.480
It's a hard place to to live if you have any addiction issues because everything's available 24 hours, three shifts a day, you know.

00:55:42.639 --> 00:55:43.519
It's like whew.

00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:47.039
It is, but you can also see what it does.

00:55:47.360 --> 00:55:50.159
Yes, you're as an addict myself.

00:55:50.480 --> 00:55:53.360
That is something that I appreciate that keeps me sober.

00:55:53.599 --> 00:55:54.400
Yeah, yeah, for sure.

00:55:54.800 --> 00:55:59.280
Is you you can come to Vegas and you can see rock bottom looking you in the face.

00:55:59.679 --> 00:56:04.800
And you you when you hit rock bottom there, it's really hard to get out because it's it takes a toll on you.

00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:18.480
It's it'd be just the weather alone, dry and hot, and it's it's mean, it can be a very mean place if you if you have a lot of addiction issues because there's just nowhere to hide from that heat and dryness, and people get really it's tricky sometimes.

00:56:18.559 --> 00:56:22.800
But anyway, we need to wrap things up because we've kept you for almost an hour and we love talking with you.

00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:28.079
And we're doing some more episodes about um robots and AI and dolls and things like that.

00:56:28.159 --> 00:56:32.480
So maybe we'll have to see if we can rope you into one of those conversations as well one of these days.

00:56:32.800 --> 00:56:36.480
I will come talk to you guys anytime, any day.

00:56:36.800 --> 00:56:38.559
Try to give me a week notice.

00:56:39.199 --> 00:56:41.599
Um we appreciate your time.

00:56:41.679 --> 00:56:44.159
We were so so happy we finally got to interview you.

00:56:44.320 --> 00:56:47.199
And if there's nothing else, um Murph, do you want to tell everybody where to find us?

00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:49.119
We'll have Cam tell everybody where to find them.

00:56:49.360 --> 00:57:00.400
Yeah, so we're at BigSexy Chat on all the socials, and you can email us any of your thoughts or questions to big sexy chatpod at gmail.com.

00:57:00.639 --> 00:57:02.960

You can find Toy Chats at T-O-Y-C-H-A-T S on Instagram and most major platforms.

00:57:13.360 --> 00:57:20.719
Um, you can find me at versus underscore humanity, mainly on Instagram.

00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:28.079
Um, I do a little Facebook too, facebook.com slash Cam Jennings official, if you want to keep up on my work life.

00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:34.800
But uh the main place is going to be toychats.com because we are our own social media platform.

00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:41.679
And if you're listening out in our community, our fat community, they're looking for more reviewers, they're paying$40 a review.

00:57:41.840 --> 00:57:43.280
That's a really cool side hustle.

00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:49.679
All you do is make a video about your favorite sex toys, and there you are, 40 bucks in your pocketbook or in your bank account.

00:57:49.920 --> 00:57:50.559
Awesome.

00:57:51.280 --> 00:57:52.719
Thank you, thank you so much, Cam.

00:57:52.880 --> 00:57:53.599
Thank you, Toy Chats.

00:57:53.679 --> 00:57:57.440
We're really excited to be in uh we'll say we're in bed with y'all right now.

00:57:57.840 --> 00:57:58.239
Yes.

00:57:58.480 --> 00:58:03.599
Uh let's uh engage in bondage and other kinky stuff too.

00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:04.719
Sounds great.

00:58:04.880 --> 00:58:06.480
All right, we'll see you later, alligator.

00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:08.239
After a while, crocodile.

00:58:08.480 --> 00:58:09.199
Let's say goodbye.

00:58:09.280 --> 00:58:10.320
I'm gonna go get hi.
