The Heart of Jacks Podcast is returning soon with new episodes. Here's the complete transcript of this teaser:
Hey! It's been a minute! I'm reaching out to ask for your input for an upcoming episode of The Heart of Jacks Podcast.
I'm currently editing a multi-episode piece on “sex positivity” that started over a year ago and was put on a shelf (with the rest of the pod) when my club restarted operations and I got a new job and my music group began live performances again. Those three big things interrupted the HOJ project in a big way… which… you might have noticed.
AAAAAnyway, I'm now circling back to The Heart of Jacks and this particular episode and it would benefit from a few more voices and that’s where your input comes in.
Here’s what I’d like you to do, if you’re up for it. I’m going to give you a conversation starter—a few short questions and I’d like you to call The Heart of Jacks phone line and simply respond with your thoughts in a voicemail. You don’t have to answer every question like it’s a quiz. Just listen, mull it over a little and call with your response. If you write it out before you call, that’s fine but absolutely not required. I’d like your feedback to sound spontaneous, honest, just your take on the subject, and it can be just one or two sentences.
If you were one of the fine folks who contributed to this in the past, you don't need to do it again.
Now, please don't worry about being perfect. Just consider the questions for a few seconds or a few minutes and then send me your response. Here goes!
Are you familiar with the term, “sex positive?” Does it mean anything to you? Have you never encountered it or is it a term you or somebody you know uses? Do you have any particular thoughts about what “sex positive” is or isn’t? Is it just jargon or a trend or is it an important idea? How about this: do you have any… feelings or judgements about somebody who casually uses the term, “sex positive?” What does it bring up for you?Again, consider all of that as a conversation starter, not the fucking SAT or a job application. Nothing is on the line here and your input is anonymous. I’m going to edit responses to be pretty short, so don’t think about it too much and don’t worry about being perfect. I just want your honest take. Simply consider the subject and send me your thoughts.
When you’re ready, call The Heart of Jacks phone line at (206) 580-3120. You can also record a voice memo with your smart phone and email that to [email protected] - And if you really want to contribute but you’re just super shy about using your voice, you can email me your response too. It’s just more likely that I’ll actually use it if you call in and leave voicemail or send me a voice memo.
If you mess something up, just repeat it. I’ll make you sound good. I really just want to know what YOU think about this thing called “sex positivity.”
Thank you so much for helping me out with this and for listening to The Heart of Jacks Podcast. I can’t wait to serve up all the good stuff that’s been cooking over the past year… or so.
I’m Paul Rosenberg.

There’s a reason why the podcast has taken an occasional hiatus since it’s launch in the fall, and it’s not vacations. I’ve been cagey about it but I’ve decided that it’s time to come clean.

Episode #16 - James Goes to the Jacks
Guest: James
Released April 5, 2021
Supported by listeners like you, patrons through Patreon
Sorting out the sorting out
Appearances can be deceiving
and James goes to the JacksSegment 1: Age is an issue in many places and in some ways, it’s less of an issue in jack-off clubs than in many other places, but it still presents challenges for the members and managers of the Jacks everywhere. Paul has some thoughts.
Segment 2: James was 24 when he first attended Rain City Jacks. It was also only his second experience having sex with men and remarkably, that was the night he met his current boyfriend, some 5 years ago. At 29, both he and his boyfriend still attend Jacks events regularly. His experience isn’t wildly different from other Jacks members, but it is uniquely his and we get into it together.

Pursuing the bate-life balance
And a mindful talk about tantra with Rick Laska
Segment 1: Paul wants to talk to you about your "Bate/Life Balance," how adults who masturbate frequently balance this part of their lives with everything else being a grownup requires of us. It may sound strange, but the extension of our cultural reticence with regard to masturbation can leave people in a "denial/release" cycle of cutting out self-pleasure followed by periods of sacrificing everything else. Paul is looking for guest suggestions to chew on this topic of making healthy self-pleasuring a balanced part of our adult lives.
Segment 2: Rick Laska is a clinical social worker and certified sex therapist in the Twin Cities Metro Area in Minnesota. He has been involved in the field of sexual health and wellness for over 2 decades. He is passionate about pleasure, intimacy, and connection as well as overcoming the oppressive forces trying to stifle those things. Paul and Rick talk about his path to social work and sex therapy, and dive into the fundamentals of sexual mindfulness and tantra.

And talking shame with Dr. Eric Sprankle
Segment 1: Paul talks about how he learned about sex before most of his friends did (hint: It wasn’t from his parents or school) and about the ways that queer kids learn nothing at all about sex or relationships and are still left to kludge their lives together without guidance, a monologue inspired by his conversation with today’s guest.

Questions that we chewed on:
What is shame?Is sexual shame unique from other kinds of shame?Where does sexual shame and overall sex negativity come from?Is shame ever a good thing?What’s a good alternative focus?What's behind the cultural pressure to feel shame?Is the rise of secularism alone a solution to sexual shame?- - - - -

[Not a full episode. Let’s call this a bonus!]
Before the bupivacaine wears off and the first dose of painkillers kick in, just after that first post-op cup of coffee, there’s a sweet window of opportunity to knock out a quick non-episode so your ears aren’t lonely on Solstice morning.
Rather than post an oh-so-close-but-as-yet-unfinished episode of the podcast, I made this End of 2020 support pitch on the fly, a standalone semi-show to remind you that I love you, that I’m really doing just fine (even if I did just have my third orthopedic surgery of the year just this morning) and to highlight three important things I need for the health of this podcast:
You really should listen to the episodes you missed.I need more Patreon patrons and there’s a sneaky way to make just one payment.I urgently need more ratings and reviews on Apple Podcasts.If you’re enjoying the show but not yet a patron, please consider supporting the project by going to patreon.com/theheartofjacks and contributing what you can either monthly or annually. New subscribers get two free months with an *annual* subscription through February 2021.
Really, the best thing you can do for any podcaster is to help increase their visibility on Apple Podcasts! Please take a minute to find The Heart of Jacks Podcast on Apple Podcasts, rate and review the show. In fact, consider doing that for every podcast you love. If you can’t contribute your hard-earned cash to the cause, you can help other listeners hear the shows you love and that is the Holy Grail for every podcaster.
Thank you for all you’ve done already to put The Heart of Jacks Podcast into more than 2,500 sets of ears in just three months. That’s over 5,000 ears!

Hezekiah has been to JO clubs all over the world and has a lot to share about body image, nudity, authenticity and masturbation as a primary source of sexual satisfaction.

No podcast this week or next! I am taking medical leave to mend after a bit of work. I’m getting the hitch removed from my giddy-up. I’m also being rather cagey. Sorry not sorry. I’ll be dropping a new full episode before you know it. Stay tuned and stay safe out there.
