Special guest Lisa from Cybrothel.com talks us through the fascinating range of love dolls they have on offer, as well as VR experiences and other seggs tech services you can find at this unique house of pleasure in Berlin

Elle, Frank and Lisa look deeper into how love dolls will develop in the future and Lisa talks about how Cybrothel is actively looking to market dolls to a broader queer audience and for more female-centred doll experiences.

What are the ethics about seggs with dolls? What's happening in the future? And why do some people want to completely ban love dolls?

I bought you mail order

My plain wrapper baby

Your skin is like vinyl

The perfect companion

You float in my new pool

De luxe and delightful

Inflatable doll

My role is to serve you

Disposable darling

Can't throw you away now

Immortal and life-size

My breath is inside you

I'll dress you up daily

And keep you till death sighs

Inflatable doll

Lover ungrateful

I blew up your body

But you blew my mind

Join CRUDE where we mercilessly deconstruct love, s3x, bodies, and relationships using our own experiences and the thoughts of others. Slutty academics Frank and Misty are joined in Berlin by Elle, an activist, and avid partygoer Effie based in London.

We’ll delve into topics intrinsic to modern relationships, sexual self-awareness, and the world of kink in liberal cities in the 21st century. The hosts are currently active and immersed in sex-positive scenes across Europe, meaning they date and meet a range of fizzing and wonderful people. The increasing influence of kink on mainstream attitudes towards sex and relationships means CRUDE's exploration provides listeners with an essential and entertaining examination of their own desires, passions, and the situationships that ensue.

Where can you listen?
