LOS ANGELES — Alison Rey is the latest guest on the “Turn Me On” podcast, hosted by Jeremie Saunders and Bryde MacLean.

On the episode, Rey spoke about the many hats she wears in the industry, as well as what it’s like to date colleagues versus “civilians.”

“Talking with Bryde and Jeremie might’ve been my favorite podcast I’ve ever done,” said Rey. “These are two human beings that are genuinely curious about the inner workings of the adult industry and are interested in the humanity behind the performers, rather than sensationalizing us like circus acts. Of all the topics we discussed, I was particularly fond of our exploration of sexuality and how maintenance sex in intimate relationships can be an act of generosity and love for your partner. I was surprised that I was able to teach them a few things as well, including what it means to do a creampie. They were just so open-minded and eager to learn and listen, I felt like I could talk to them for hours.”

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Curlyrican is the latest guest on the “And Now We Drink” podcast, hosted by Matt Slayer.

During the episode, Curlyrican discusses her experiences navigating Los Angeles, her ambitions to go pro and produce and direct long-form content, and her desire to create Latina-based scenes that embrace natural hair and diverse bodies, while also incorporating her love for the Spanish language.

Throughout the episode, Curlyrican and Slayer also touch on conversations about identity, mental health and various social issues.

“‘And Now We Drink’ was an amazing experience,” said Curlyrican. ”From the moment you walk in the door, it’s like meeting an old friend and you’re just reconnecting. I felt no pressure to discuss any topics I wasn’t comfortable with, but when we sat down most of that went out the window, as this environment was so comfortable and fun that I was engaging on every topic that I would talk to a friend about, both in and out of industry. I have to say, if you’re in this industry and you’re looking to be heard, Matt is your host and this is the podcast to visit.”

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas granted Thursday a preliminary injunction blocking the Arkansas government from enforcing the state’s new sweeping “Social Media Safety” act, which was scheduled to take effect today, until its merits are litigated.

Tech trade group NetChoice sued Arkansas’ Republican Attorney General Tim Griffin over the state’s Act 689, which bans minors from using social media platforms without proof of parental consent, “with a number of confusing exceptions,” Reason’s Elizabeth Nolan Brown reported.

The decision by Judge Timothy L. Brooks coincided with a similar injunction against Texas’ anti-porn age verification and mandatory labeling law, also scheduled to be enacted today.

As XBIZ reported, a Texas court granted on Thursday a preliminary injunction to Free Speech Coalition (FSC) and its co-plaintiffs, blocking the Texas Attorney General from enforcing HB1181 while the case is litigated

Chris Marchese, director of the NetChoice litigation center, commented, “We’re pleased the court sided with the First Amendment and stopped Arkansas’ unconstitutional law from censoring free speech online and undermining the privacy of Arkansans, their families and their businesses as our case proceeds. We look forward to seeing the law struck down permanently.”

Nolan Brown explained that, “as with all such age verification laws, the Arkansas measure would invade the privacy of all social media users — including adults — who would be forced to turn over official IDs in order to speak or access information online. It would also infringe on the rights of minors to share and access constitutionally protected speech.”

Judge Brooks wrote in his decision that Act 689 was “unconstitutionally vague because it fails to adequately define which entities are subject to its requirements.”

More Brits Weighing in to Curtail U.S. Free Speech

In yet another instance of U.S. anti-porn politicians importing British subjects to share their opinions on American Free Speech issues, the Arkansas government called U.K. age verification proponent Tony Allen to testify in support of Act 689.

Though termed a “constitutional monarchy,” the U.K. has no written constitution and no equivalents to the U.S. Bill of Rights, First Amendment or codified Section 230 protections. Another sweeping “child protection” internet legislation, California’s controversial AB 2273, the so-called “Age-Appropriate Design Code Act,” was drafted and lobbied for by British noblewoman and filmmaker, the Baroness Beeban Kidron. 

Weighing in on the Arkansas act, Allen attempted to convince the judge of the merits of U.K.’s controversial and long-term stalled Online Safety Bill, which the court was told “is expected to pass the Houses of Parliament sometime next month.”

Allen explained that the U.K. bill, unlike the Arkansas act, mandates that “age verification requirements will be triggered by particular content, called ‘primary priority content,’ which the U.K. has determined is damaging or harmful to minors.”

Examples of the UK’s “primary priority content,” he continued, include “adult pornography and information about suicide, self-harm and dieting.”

After confusingly comparing the internet and platforms to “a mall,” Allen testified that “in the U.K., online parental consent [will be] only required when a minor seeks to perform some action online that the law forbids, such as enter into a contract for the sale or purchase of goods. By contrast, Act 689 will require social media companies to obtain ‘express consent of a parent or legal guardian’ much more frequently — whenever an Arkansas minor seeks to open a social media account — and to use procedures reliable enough to ensure that these companies avoid incurring civil and criminal penalties.”

Implementing these procedures, Allen warned, will not be easy. “I think the biggest challenge you have with parental consent is actually establishing the relationship, the parental relationship. It’s easy to say that this person who is giving the consent is, let’s say, in their 40s, versus the person that’s asking for the consent being under 18. But actually establishing that that is a parent or a legal guardian, that’s the challenge with those processes.”

Yet even that is not the real event finale. That slot, of course, is reserved for the crown jewel 2023 XBIZ Europa Awards, as well as an After-Party hosted by F2F.com, sure to send conference attendees off in traditional XBIZ style.
