❤ Her Vajesty Dixie De La Tour is a Story, Communication and Performance Coach, a Podcaster, Impresario, an IRL Enthusiast, but most of all, a Community builder. She is also the Founder, Curator & Host of the Award-winning storytelling series, Bawdy Storytelling (called “The Moth for Pervs” by the LA Weekly, and “The Original Sex and Storytelling series” by Playgirl) that’s been lauded for its transformational, relatable, and empowering performances.
This story-loving southerner is passionate about storytelling’s ability to keep people safe, reduce social anxiety and build connection. She has performed and presented at Podcast Movement, SketchFest, the San Francisco Jewish Community Center, The Naked Truth, Porchlight, Muni Diaries, In A Nutshell, Memoir Spool, Fireside Storytelling and many other local storytelling shows. In addition to story coaching and public speaking coaching (for TEDx, Women in Technology, and her own Bawdy Storytelling & BawdySlam series), Dixie offers both one-on-one private story coaching (How to Be Bawdy and How to be Fascinating) and teaches ‘Storytelling for Job Seekers’ to help you ace that big job interview. Plus she’s been Sainted by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (“Saint Kiss & Make You Tell”) for her work to reduce stigma and eliminate shame, and in her free time, she enjoys being a Muppet.
Her beloved live grassroots stage performance series, Bawdy Storytelling, is celebrating its 20th Anniversary this year!, and the top 2% Bawdy Storytelling podcast has hundreds of 5 star reviews, almost 300 episodes and millions of downloads - plus its won ‘Best Of’s from Oprah Magazine, Forbes, Mashable, Buzzfeed, GQ Magazine, Marie Claire, Uproxx, Women’s Health, Bustle, Cosmopolitan, Esquire Magazine and more.

Young brings her 20 years of experience as a pioneer in the feminist porn movement, along with her award-winning filmmaking and writing talents, to her many projects in a way that reflects the emotional nuance and authentic vulnerability that has become a signature of Young’s work.
Young has been featured on HBO’s Real Sex and has been profiled for her expertise in feminism, erotic film and sexuality on Dateline NBC, MTV, Slutever on Viceland, Bravo TV, The New York Times, Savage Love, BBC, Elle Magazine, and Elite Daily just to name a few.

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..
