About Bawdy Storytelling:

Bawdy Storytelling - the Original Sex + Storytelling series - features Real People & Rockstars sharing their Bona Fide Sexual Exploits Live Onstage; think of us as a One Night Stand with The Moth & Savage Love. Storytellers are an eclectic mix of Authors, Porn Stars, Sex Educators, Comedians & more, along with Regular Joes just like you who submitted their stories online and were chosen for their panache and sense of (Mis)Adventure.

This One-Of-A-Kind Live Stage Show & Series is also an Award-winning Podcast with millions of downloads. Despite its infamy, it remains inclusive, friendly and every guest is treated like family. It's very important to Dixie that you know you're #OneOfUs

Bawdy Storytelling features tales of Carnal Wins & Epic Fails with No Scripts, No Nets, and No Holds Barred. These folks aren't reading from cue cards: this is honest-to-badness story time with true sexcapades and poignant, transformational tales at each and every show. Join Sexual Folklorist Dixie De La Tour & hand-picked Rockstars as they share their own stories of Love, Lust, and making you feel funny in your bathing suit area. Hey, you may even go home with a few new tricks for your boudoir arsenal!

Currently she makes her home in the mountains north of San Francisco, travels to teach at conferences all over the world, and wanders through the mountains around her home declaiming filthy poetry to the vultures. You can check out her website at www.dossieeaston.com.

He created the Lambda-Award-winning and Eisner-nominated collection No Straight Lines: Four Decades of Queer Comics and was Producer on the feature-length documentary of the same name, which debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival and won the Best Documentary Award at Outfest in 2021. Hall is the Chair of the MFA in Comics at California College of the Arts, the first Fulbright Scholar of comics, has written about comics for various academic publications, and has curated international exhibitions of comics art.

❤ Cari Rosner is a bisexual, polyamorous dancer who is working on her first ever bio for a storytelling show right now. You can do it, Cari! (I love your story, btw)

❤ Jefferson Bergey is musically promiscuous. The Oakland-based singer-songwriter, MC, game-show host, and professional vocalist at-large has been writing and performing for Bawdy Storytelling! for ten years. In the realm of comedy and variety shows he’s been seen at Punchline SF, San Jose Improv, SF Sketchfest, Ruckus and Rumpus Revival, and has written custom songs for San Francisco’s MUNI Diaries and Laughs For Life.

As a solo act Bergey has been “negotiating covers” for the past decade as a live-looping solo act at private parties, weddings, corporate events, and music venues all over the greater Bay Area. He’s the namesake of Chef Matt Woods’ Bergey Burger, voted three-times “Best of the Bay”, currently served at Scopo Divino in San Francisco where he recently completed a 250 show residency.

You can see him fronting the Allman Brothers Tribute: Freestone Peaches, Crosseyed & Painless: The Music of Talking Heads, as a virtual game show host for WEVE (The Go Game), and featuring with Jazz Mafia’s Grateful Brass and Fog City Swing. When he isn’t performing, he’s flying all over the west coast and Hawaii to give lively presentations on leading bands on high-pressure events based on a manual he wrote from his colorful experiences as a wedding singer over the last decade.

In 2024 he became obsessed with the music and story of Frank Sinatra and has sold-out multi-show runs in Sacramento, L.A., and Oakland for Pure Soul Presents, Concerts Under the Stars, and Candlelight Concerts. He produces and performs a quarterly song/storytelling show called Sinatra Saloon; A Tale & A Tune.

Thanks to his supporters on Patreon, Bergey is currently recording a sonic-graphic-novel set to songs and narration. His most recent single release, ‘W.Y.D.O.T.D. pt. 1’ (originally written for Bawdy Storytelling) is one of the songs from that gritty story and can be found on your favorite streaming service (Listener Discretion Advised!)

She is also the Founder, Curator & Host of the Award-winning storytelling series, Bawdy Storytelling (“The Moth for Pervs” - LA Weekly, “The Original Sex and Storytelling series” - Playgirl) that’s been lauded for its transformational, relatable, empowering performances.
