308: Silvia (@thesilviasaige) from Los Angeles
This week Cory and Ms. Nikki welcome Silvia Saige from Los Angeles. Silvia is a fellow stand-up comedian and porn star...well not fellow porn star because I'm nota porn star, she's a porn star - y'all get it. Silvia is both a hilarious comedian and great actress. It's shocking that she can do both so well...Cory is extremely envious.

(Re-Run) 201: Chloe (@stripperstoriespodcast) from London, England
Re-run! This was our first ever international guest and it was wild to hear the difference between the clubs in the UK and the states. Listen in and next week we have a special HUGE guest.
----------------------------------
I (stand-up comedian Cory Michaelis) am back with Season Two of Stripper Whisperer and I couldn't be more excited to have Chloe (@stripperstoriespodcast) from the Stripper Stories podcast as our guest!
Pandemic can't break our stride, pandemic can't slow us down, oh no...we got to keep on movin'! Shout out to Matthew Wilder who I thought was British like this week's cheeky guest, Chloe - making her our first international (sorry, I don't count Canada) guest. I was super excited - and nervous - to have another podcast host on an episode. So many firsts. What isn't a first is that she's an astounding stripper and live virtual sex worker like many of our past guests.Â

(Rerun) 209: Dani (@theinstatiabledanib) from Seattle
This week (IN A RERUN EPISODE), I (stand-up comedian Cory Michaelis) have quite the interview for y'all. Dani, a woman who attended the school I used to teach at, has pursued a career as a sex worker. She isn't a stripper but is certainly in the industry and you'll be very intrigued to hear what kind of work she does. She followed @stripperpodcast on IG (and so should you!) and as we were discussing a time to interview she was like "do you remember that I was a student at your school?" - I didn't but wasn't going to bail for that reason. Listen to the interview which, understandably, has a couple awkward moments.Â

307: Rio (@partywithrio) from Chicago
This week Cory and Ms. Nikki welcome Rio from Chicago - our first human man on the pod! And, before you flood us with DM's, we know Rio's audio stinks. Unfortunately, he was trapped in a basement with all the other live show strippers. Gives another meaning to the Thunder from Down Under.

The moment you all haven't been waiting for! The return of Stripper Whisperer - Season 3! And we're incredibly excited to welcome our new co-host Nikki (@sheistattooed) to the show. Lord and Buddha and Allah know Cory needs her - gone are the days of him creepily inviting women to his hotel room to do the pod or sliding into DM's with an essay to convince them he's legit. And, welcome the days of a wonderful, new perspective đ
Nikki was raised in Las Vegas and lived for years in Reno so she knows how to gamble - which is what she's doing by joining the pod đ. She also knows how to hustle and grind to make money, pun intended. She currently lives in Bend, Oregon and dances at Stars Cabaret so if you're in that area, head on over and give her a bunch of your money.

She's super personable and a great dancer - go see her live and giver her money!

This weeks episode is a re-run with some important announcements. First, Season 3 is coming soon and we're recording them now with my new co-host Nikki (@sheistattooed). We're very excited for the new season and format. Lastly, we'd love to appeal to our fans - one of our favorite guests and episodes, Lola from Reno, has had a rough month. Getting COVID has put her in a position to get evicted and I'd like to help her. If you want to join me, her Venmo is below. Regardless, enjoy the ep!Â
Venmo: Lola-Mays-1
-----------------------------
Comedian Cory Michaelis performs in Reno for the first time and snags an interview in his hotel room with the badass rockstar, Lola (@xbarbedwirebarbiex) who dances like sheâs the biggest little stripper in the world.

Bonus Crossover Episode! Home Skool w/ Cory, Andrew Rivers, and Mark Normand
Cory has another podcast where he and his best friend, Andrew Rivers, do monologue jokes each week for a comedian guest/audience member and then BS with them for a bit. That's it! We wanted to share it with y'all. Enjoy or ignore :)
----------------------------
Cory and Andrew shake it up a little this week by moving the podcast release to Tuesdays and appropriately swapping stories with Mark Normand -co-host of "Tuesdays with Stories". In addition to being hilarious and quick-witted, Mark is one of the hardest working fellas in standup and is constantly writing jokes and talking comedy. It was super fun to open mic some of our stinkers with him riffing and razzing.

This week, I (stand-up comedian Cory Michaelis) am a little late because I was golfing in the middle of nowhere the last 4 days (and didn't prepare in advance...sorry!). I trade barbs with Alice from Tulsa, Oklahoma! Forewarning that the audio isn't perfection but the episode is, just like when Chandler accepted gum from Jill Goodacre on "Friends"...ok, that's an obscure reference but I've been re-watching the series since the reunion show. Anyway, Alice is the best and even came out to a show when I was in Tulsa (but left without rescuing me from the old housewives who were trying to hit on me!).

Rerun of our first episode ever! This episode really defines what the podcast is all about because the guest, Elle Stanger, is so phenomenal, captivating, knowledgable, and illuminating. Allow her to educate you about sex work as she did me.Â
---------------------------------
Comedian Cory Michaelis does his first stripper interview with Elle Stanger (@stripperwriter) from Portland, Oregon. Elle is a sex educator, stripper, does other sexual work, and has an insightful and wonderful podcast called âStrange Bedfellowsâ.Â

Announcement: Stripper Whisperer Season 2 Release Date
We are very excited to announce that Season Two of "Stripper Whisperer" will be released on Monday, April 26th at 8am EST. For Episode One, comedian Cory Michaelis interviews the incomparable "Chloe" from London - she's a funny, charming, and irreverent host of her own stripper-themed podcast called âStripper Stories!â.
If youâre a listener from Season One, welcome back and thank you for staying subscribed even though we took the year off. COVID was very serious and detrimental to so many people worldwide as well as - not nearly as importantly - taking a real toll on the entertainment business and kept Cory from touring to do comedy and interviews. But once everyone got used to virtually meeting, it was actually much easier for him to snag interviews. You can imagine that trying to book them in person while I was on the road doing comedy wasnât the easiest, like "hey I have this podcast in my hotel room I'd love you to come do it" uhhhh...sure you do buddy...I'm not coming to your hotel room to do your "podcast". So, going virtual has been far less intrusive and allowed Cory to interview women from amazing and exotic places all of the world, Chloe from London, women in Latin America, and Canadians.Â
For those of you who are brand new to the podcast, hereâs the deal. I love going to strip clubs, theyâre very interesting to me and Iâve learned there are so many similarities between strippers and comedians so I want to learn all about the women (and hopefully some men soon!) who work in them. Have you ever wondered what itâs really like to be a stripper? Are the things you think about them and their job accurate? Do they feel empowered or is it degrading like a lot of people think? Are they putting themselves through college or supporting kids or something else OR, and have you ever even considered this, just doing a job they enjoy that pays them well? Crazy idea right!? What are their dreams and goals and are they really ALL that different from other women? And, whether you frequent strip clubs or not, how can we all do a better job of supporting the women who work in this industry and perform what truly is a beautiful art form and a legitimate service - just not full service. Although, some are happy to charge you for that outside of the club in a safe and legal way.
So, join Cory Michaelis as he gets behind the G-string and interviews strippers from all over the world to learn what itâs like working in the clubs, what their lives are like outside of the club, and how we can all be better customers in their space.
We think youâll be intrigued AND surprised by what you hear.
You can get the first episode of Season Two on Monday, April 26th and a new episode will be released every Monday at 8am. BUT, if you scroll down you can listen to all of Season One right now and why not start with episode one and Portlandâs Elle Stanger. We would love it so much if you supported the podcast by subscribing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or Stitcher and giving us a 5 star review with some nice words. And if youâre a stripper who would like to be interviewed, please reach out to Cory on INSTAGRAM. Also, go HERE to follow Cory on all the things.Â
121: Stripped Down w/ Cory and Andrew (@andrewjrivers)
A lot of listeners have expressed curiosity about the impetus for this podcast. Like, why interview strippers and why me? So, I thought it would be a great idea to release my history frequenting strip clubs and how that has shaped and influenced my choice to interview the women (and eventually men) who work in the industry. Much of my intrigue comes from me seeing it as a very similar career to mine as a stand-up comedian. But thereâs much more to it than that. So, listen to the second episode from inside the Champagne Room with Andrew Rivers (@andrewjrivers) where I talk about my first trip to a strip club â Spearmint Rhino in Boise, Idaho â by myself after not having had sex for 9 months. The video is up now on Patreon â check it out and subscribe.
120: Hether from Tacoma, WA (@hethercomic)
This episode has a lot of super interesting wrinkles but our guests skin is flawless. Hether (@hethercomic) shares stories of stripping, being a burlesque dancer and a show producer, battling breast cancer, and pursuing stand-up comedy. She has had a very full life and Iâm happy to share that sheâs cancer free and will continue to live a full life. The video is up now on Patreon â check it out and subscribe.
118: Kelz from Atlanta, GA (@jkellykelz_)
Kelz (@jkellykelz_)is our first stripper has worked in the midwest and on the east coast and Iâm pretty sheâs our first veteran. She has a great life story with lots of fun individual stories involving rappers and wild ATL night and strip clubs. She welcomed me in her home for a great interview that, aside from a pee break and my external hard drive failing (no video on this one), was as smooth and as chill as can be. I feel like I make friends with all the strippers I interview but whatâs cool about Kelz is that she lives about 10 minutes from me â I see brunch and strippers in our future! Patreon for the vid!
117: Nadia from Portland, Oregon (@thenadeshikoyamato)
For the first time and 100% not the last, Cory forgets to hit the record button and loses the first few minutes of his interview with the lovely Nadia from Portland, Oregon (@thenadeshikoyamato). It actually makes her feel a little more comfy to have a trial run and even though Cory canât pronounce her Insta handle, the âTake Twoâ interview goes great. Check out her Insta and be a peach and rate and review the pod. positively!Â
116: Stripped Down w/ Cory and Casey
A lot of listeners have expressed curiosity about the impetus for this podcast. Like, why interview strippers and why me? So, I thought it would be a great idea to release my history frequenting strip clubs and how that has shaped and influenced my choice to interview the women (and eventually men) who work in the industry. Much of my intrigue comes from me seeing it as a very similar career to mine as a stand-up comedian. But thereâs much more to it than that. So, listen to the first episode from inside the "Champagne Room" where I talk about my first ever trip to a strip club â Spearmint Rhino in Las Vegas â with my ex-wife.
115: Natalie from Seattle, WA (@bbnataliephoenix now @phoenix.barista)
Natalie isnât a stripper but sheâs in a related industry â Iâd say a cousin to strippers â as a bikini barista. What is that you ask? Women (and probably some men?) dress scantily (VERY scantily in some cases) and work in espresso stands on the side of the road or in parking lots of shopping centers making scorching hot coffee (and hot chocolate when I roll through) for folks who want to pay a little extra to see a lovely lady. I could do a lot of bad jokes about it but I wonât â just listen! Oh, and check out Natalie on Instagram, itâs a good follow! Aaaaand Patreon for the video.
114: Sasha from Portland, Oregon (@saintsashaa)
One of Coryâs friends from Portland joins him this week on the pod. Sasha (@saintsashaa) and Cory go back years to a wild night they canât even speak of (for legal reasons). They DO talk about all sorts of other kooky shit though â including what itâs like to come out â as both a stripper and a lesbian â to your parents. Check out the episode and give us 5 stars and subscribe if youâre nasty. Patreon for the video!
113: Bart, Spokane, Washington Strip Club DJ (@revbartstewart)
In a very special episode, Cory interviews long time strip club DJ, Bart Stewart (@revbartstewart). Listen to the âReverendâsâ stories about working with strippers in Spokane and Idaho. And, go check out the video and youâll see that Bart looks EXACTLY what youâd think a strip club DJ looks like on Patreon.
112: Prys from Portland, Oregon (@miss_prys)
Cory heads to a princessâ, pink bedroom to interview Prys (@miss_prys) from Portland with a wild personality. Thatâs a plethora of Pâs! Sheâs quite the ethereal character and youâre gonna want to hear a few of her fun stories. You also wonât want to miss her bra-less outfit in the video on our Patreon page â check it out and subscribe. And her IG is amazing so check it out!
111: Devin Devine from Portland, Oregon/Spokane, Washington (@delphinedanger)
In a super fun special episode, Cory interviews his first ever amateur night stripper! Devin Devine of Spokane (and now Portland) isnât just a sex positive woman who has dabbled in dancing but sheâs also a stand-up comedian, poet, spoken word artist, and buddy of Coryâs â the last one isnât all that impressive. Maybe sheâll add stripping for money to that impressive resume. Check us out on Patreon - the video is up!
110: Poppy from Portland, Oregon (@poppyseed.pdx)
Cory interviews Poppy from Portland (@poppyseed.pdx) about how both comedians and stripper have their days off and can do whatevah they want except on the days where they have their kids.

109: Devynn from Phoenix, Arizona (@blueladlylake now @healthandbeyourself)
Cory heads to smokinâ hot Phoenix to interview smokinâ hot Devynn (@blueladlylake) at a random, cool Air B&B. They talk about the differences between Phoenix strip clubs and other cities. Cory especially noticed that at the club in Phoenix there is A LOT more âstack on stacksâ and âmaking it rainâ by the customers. Check us out on Patreon for the video!
108: Lacey from Boise, Idaho (@exoticly.lacey)
Cory is joined by the lovely, laid-back, and long finger-nailed Lacey (@exoticly.lacey) from Boise, Idaho. They talk about what itâs like to have a boyfriend as a stripper and how strippers get around the silly âpastieâ law that some cities and states have because they donât want nipples shown. Iâll give you a hint â it involves glitter. Also, Lacey deserves a little extra love because she brought friends out to see Cory perform at Liquid Laughs in Boise. As always, the video is up on our Patreon.
