for a bit, for a little yeah, like I know
for I know RAFFI my five year old, I wouldn't
probably want him to hear this discussion, but.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Maybe for older kids it could spark another interesting discussion,
and of course it will be on our podcast. But
let us introduce you to Jeremy of Blimba not your
real name. Hello Jeremy, Hello, are you very good?
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Good? What is your confession?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Since the age of eighteen, I've basically substituted a fairly
lavish life style by doing sex work.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Okay, nobody knows.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Well, the majority of my family is completely oblivious to it.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
How do they not know?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
It's funny you don't realize how much you don't know
about a person. You don't go into people's finances and
go to their job every day, and it's all basically
just untrust.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
So you've been doing it since you're eighteen. How old
are you now, Jeremy.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I'm thirty five.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Oh wow, So is.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
This your career?
Speaker 4 (01:38):
This is what you do for a living?
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yeah, it is. It is like I started it during
UNI and quickly found out I don't have to.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Go to UNI.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And didn't like close family ask you questions as to
where's this money come from?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Oh? Yeah, absolutely. And there's also like a running joke
in my family of he could slip on up an
an appeal and wind up in a bucket of gold.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Right, so you just see that everyone just thinks you're
really lucky.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, But what do you tell people?
Speaker 1 (02:13):
You have to tell them something.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
You know. My favorite one is crypto because I don't
even know what cryptosy.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That's true. No one knows what's going to happen or
how they how they did it. Yes, do you remember
why you decided.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
To take this path? Uh? Curiosity? And like it seems
exhilarating a bit like different?
Speaker 4 (02:37):
And who and what are your clients mostly made up of?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
As it?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Older ladies? Is it? Man? Who are your clients.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Majority of older sort of confirmed bachelor men, the fairly
successful men as well? Okay, I've been paid to go
on holidays. I went on Safari two years ago and
got paid very nicely.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
To do that, right, and go as an escort, like
just to be with and hang out. Wow, do you
have regular clients?
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah? Oh yeah yeah, Like now I barely advertise or
see anybody. You know, it's just completely regulous or regulars.
Oh yeah, great that way.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
If you've been doing this for nearly twenty years, you
must enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah, Like there's a certain like enjoyment I get out
of it, satisfaction as well, Like it's a good like
it's not just about sexual stuff. It's about like knowing
somebody and having a relationship. And they could talk to me,
and a lot of them like me because they really
unburdened themselves and share the deepest, most that's intimate parts
(03:48):
of the soul with me.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
Why can't you tell your family, Well.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
It's not really the you'd want.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Like, I'm not surprised I wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
I know why, I get it?
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Okay, are you go ahead?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
It's selfish to like do it and then also be like, hey,
I'm doing.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
It, okay, put it in their faces.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
You in a relationship, have you ever been in a relationship?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
And how does that work?
Speaker 2 (04:24):
When I was nineteen, I tried to do it in
a way where I could hide it, and that quickly
quickly unraveled. Yeah, I learned that honesty is essentially the key,
but you have to basically find the right sort of person,
the right sort of weird person that's okay with.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Ok Can I ask you male or female partner?
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I've had both, but majority of the male.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, okay, I are you with someone now who's fine
with what you do?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
No, I'm single at the moment. Makes life a lot easier.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I mean, it is our job to say, would you
like to tell anyone with us supporting you? And I'm
guessing I know the answer, but we will happily help
confess your secret to anyone in your life.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Well, five hundred dollars cash for you, mate, you can

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Actually, the final question, how much money do you make
from doing this?
Speaker 2 (05:35):
More than a doctor?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
More than a specialist?
Speaker 2 (05:39):

Speaker 4 (05:40):
Wow, like like.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Millions, not millions, but it's up there.

If you've got a confession that you want to share,
head to the website Kiss ninety seven three dot com
dot au.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
What are you thinking of? You thinking? Man?
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I have I have someone very close to me who
owns a couple of brothels, and I've been in them
a number of times.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
There is no way.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
That I would do it, but I really respect how
much the people that do have control of their.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Lives, right because because of the money.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Yeah, and also just that's a decision you have to
consciously make. You know, people think that prostitutes are out
there because they're desperate, and some of them are, don't
get me wrong, But there are also a lot of
very well educated, you know, people.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
That do it. I wonder if there's any that.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
If you're listening right now and that's your line of
work and everyone in your family knows that everyone's cool
with it, I'll be interested to know thirty one oh
sixty five.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
None of the prostitutes I've met their family members know.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
Thirt six five though surprise us.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
You Kip said, is there any sex worker whose family
do know? And Melissa of Eagle be here you are?
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Hello?
Speaker 5 (07:13):
How are you good?
Speaker 4 (07:15):
Mate?
Speaker 1 (07:17):
John?
Speaker 4 (07:19):
How did it go? First? Told your family.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
I was a bit guilty of what I was doing,
and I felt ashamed. But I've got two teenage daughters,
twenty eight and thirty one. I said, look, I'm doing this.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
Sort of work.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
They said they were quite disappointed. They were disgusted and said, mum,
what are you doing this for? The lower yourself?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
So when you were a single mum at the time.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
Yes, I was okay for thirty one years? Right, So
I brought up my girls as a single parent. I
went through a rape stage with having them both so
and I felt so and then I met her bloke
and I went through domestic violence badly.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Okay, So Melissa, when did you decide to do this
kind of work?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
I've done it for ten years now.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
And the girls who were originally shocked to find out
and against it, how do they feel about it now
that they've had time to get used to it.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
I have one that puts my ads on for me,
helps me in a way of just upgrading my ads.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
It's like online like posting them and things, oh wow.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
Wow, And my other daughter. She picks out what if
she think successful, like you know, judges whatever of you
know the people that I see.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
She monitors the clients and says, this one's good and
that one's no good.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Oh she told me what who not to see and
who not to see that I see a lot of
elderly where a lot of elderly don't get any pleas
or in love, and I think it's discuted.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Yeah, Melissa, people are so judgmental of sex work. But
can I tell you nds work. I know my girlfriend
who owns a couple of brothels, she does a lot
of that because and going into nursing homes, children of
elderly people in nursing homes often ring sex workers. And
you have to be a really special kind of person,
and that's clearly you.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
You've got to have the heart, you've got to have
the love. You've got to give them what they want
in a little bit of room and swear. A lot
of elderly I see are on nursing roams and then
I'll cuddle or kissl their missus and it's down grading.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Well, well, thank you for sharing, thank you.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Can I just ask you one thing, Melissa, because based
on your history. You are now doing this because you
want to, right?
Speaker 5 (09:47):
I do it, yeah, because I broke from a lot
of domestic violence, and I feel safer doing this sort
of work around people than borrowing over what hell I
went through with him with my.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Ex Okay, because it would concern me greatly if I
didn't get off. Ask you that question that you were
doing because you have to, but with your children involved,
it's a family business.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
It's incredible.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Thank you, And we should.

about domestic violence, that there is help if you are
