Ep 138 – Legally Blue

Interviews

Ready to raise the bar? We’re diving deep into the heart of San Francisco’s Castro District with none other than the enigmatic Stephan Ferris. Once turning heads as the daring Blue Bailey in a world where condomless scenes were taboo even amongst fellow HIV-positive performers—he now rocks the courtroom and academia as a fiercely queer legal eagle. With credentials flaunting a Harvard-published piece and a seat on the board of Bay Area Lawyers for Individual Freedom, Stephan’s journey from sultry screens to California’s courts is nothing short of legendary. Stephan also published memoir Blue Movie is a chronicling over 75 scenes from Ferris’ life including sex, chems, sadistic Nazis, and even a dungeon death!

Worlds collide when he and podcast cohost Dextra drag the law into the limelight with “Reading is Fundamental,” demystifying the legal twists and turns of the entertainment world. Join Jon and Stephan as they explore the intersection of sexual expression, activism, and the letter of the law.

This episode was recorded on the lands of the Yalukut Weelam clan of the Boon Wurrung peoples. We pay our respects to their elders, past, present and emerging, and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
