Most people walk into an adult shop feeling awkward, unsure, or completely out of their comfort zone. But what if, instead of judgment, they were greeted with laughter, real talk, and two women who make you feel instantly seen? That’s the magic of Vanessa and Kelly—aka B1 and B2—the voices behind the hit show, Spicy Bananas Podcast.
With nearly 30 years of combined experience working in adult stores, these two aren’t just retail veterans. They’re educators, therapists, and comedians all rolled into one. And now, they’ve taken their candid, hilarious, and healing conversations from behind the counter to behind the mic.
From Retail Banter to Real Conversations
Vanessa and Kelly met on the job, bonded over their shared sense of humour, and began calling each other “booze hags” during their off-the-clock chats. What began as inside jokes evolved into a mission to normalize conversations around sex, self-confidence, and curiosity. The result? Spicy Bananas—a podcast built to bring humour and humanity to topics that are still too often taboo.
Breaking Taboos, One Laugh at a Time
Forget the outdated stereotypes of sleazy shops and hushed voices. B1 and B2 are redefining what it means to work in the adult industry. Whether helping a nervous first-timer or advising a returning 80-something, their approach is always the same: no shame, no judgment, just honest support.
Their podcast extends this same mindset to a global audience, delivering stories that are equal parts hilarious and deeply human.
From “Is This Dishwasher Safe?” to Deep Emotional Healing
Some of the questions they hear are funny—like the customer who wanted to know if his new toy could go in the dishwasher. Others are deeply vulnerable: erectile dysfunction, trauma, aging, divorce. But every story gets the same treatment: empathy, clarity, and a little comedic relief.
And that’s what makes Spicy Bananas special: it’s not about being explicit for clicks. It’s about giving people a safe, welcoming space to get real about their needs, their bodies, and their confidence.
What Sets B1 and B2 Apart
It’s not just their experience or their sharp wit. It’s their willingness to get real. They don’t sugar-coat anything. They don’t pretend to have all the answers. But they do create a space where people feel empowered to explore what makes them feel good—physically, emotionally, and sexually.
If you’ve ever felt out of place walking into a sex shop or awkward talking about pleasure, Spicy Bananas will make you feel right at home.
