Porn Meets Academia: featuring Jiz Lee & Madita Oeming

Porn Meets Academia: featuring Jiz Lee & Madita Oeming

This episode is a testament to the generosity and the collaborative nature of the pornography studies community. When I was browsing Twitter one day, I saw that a previous guest on the show, Madita Oeming, was going to be at the Berlin Porn Film Festival hosting a live interview with pornography start extraordinaire Jiz Lee! I messaged her immediately and asked if she would be kind enough to record the interview for the podcast, and she agreed to do so. I’ve personally never been to the Festival, so I was very happy to be able to hear what’s going on across the pond and I’m even happier to be able to bring this special exchange to all of you. This podcast wouldn’t exist without Madita and and Jiz’s kindness. The focus of this talk is about how Jiz straddles the divide between pornography and academia. They’re uniquely qualified to address this topic considering that they’re not only one of the biggest queer porn stars in the world, but they’ve also been published in a multitude of academic books and journals. Jiz is the editor of Coming Out Like a Porn Star (ThreeL Media, 2015), a contributor to the Feminist Porn Book (Feminist Press at CUNY, 2013), the co-editor along with Rebecca Sullivan (another former guest on the show) of Porn Studies’ special issue titled “Porn and Labour.” This is a thoughtful and funny interview where Jiz talks about the special privileges afforded to porn performers who engage with academia, the similarities between pirating both pornography and academic articles, and what it’s like to have one of your campus visits covered by Fox News!
