Ep. 122 - Interview: Joanne House Mom & Dancing in the 80s - 00s

Today we are joined by Joanne (@missjoannesfinishingschool). Jo was a professional dancer appearing in Casino review shows, tv commercials, cruise ships, and industrial & promotional shows in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's.  Which means she danced in clubs back when the clubs were referred to as go-go bars and then called gentleman's clubs.  After retiring from dancing, Jo worked as a house mom at Delilah's for almost  20 years and founded their shows & dance-team programs. She also developed the contests in to what they are today… Legendary! Jo is currently retired and happily married, residing with her husband, 4 resident rescue cats, her rescue dog and foster kitties. 

This episode we discuss: the difference between go-go dancing  and ex0tic dancing; the changes Jo has seen over the 3 decades her dancing career spanned; how the dancers and the clientele have changed over the years; how the 90s Microsoft / Apple tech bubble burst of 2000/2001 and the infamous 2008 crash impacted the str!pclub; her experience working as a house mom and more ! 

As always, have a wonderful week and happy wh0re-ing ! 💋
