Kasey Kei Opens Up on And Now We Drink Podcast

Emily Davis · 2026-07-03

Kasey Kei, the multi-award-winning Japanese American adult entertainer and creator, just dropped a killer episode on the unfiltered podcast *And Now We Drink*. Host Matt Slayer sits down with her for a chat that's part industry tell-all, part deep dive into life in Los Angeles. If you've ever wondered what it's really like behind the camera, this one's for you. ### Turning Haters Into Metrics The episode kicks off with something every creator can relate to: dealing with negative comments. Kasey doesn't just brush them off—she turns them into engagement metrics. It's a smart move that shows how she's always thinking like a business owner. She also gets real about the loneliness that comes with sex work and how hard it is to find genuine connections in this line of work. ### Bigger Conversations About Society From there, the two dig into some heavy stuff. They talk about how sex workers are perceived by the public, trans discrimination, and the stigma that clings to alternative professions. Kasey and Matt explore digital fame versus real-life anonymity, and how social media has totally reshaped public and personal relationships. It's not all heavy though—there's plenty of humor and introspection along the way. > "This has been one of my favorite interviews. It wasn't a bunch of questions, but a nice chat with an industry friend who wanted to get to know me. Although Matt and I come from very different worlds, we had a lot of common ground, and nothing seemed to faze him, which I loved," says Kasey Kei. ### Where to Catch the Episode *And Now We Drink* Episode 462 – "Kasey Kei Isn't Here for the Apocalypse" is available now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, and the show's site at [andnowwedrink.com](https://andnowwedrink.com) (nofollow).

She made it happen by uploading self-filmed content to Pornhub and shooting her first pro scene for Grooby. Since then, she's filmed over 200 scenes for top studios like Trans Angels, Gender X, Evil Angel, and VR Bangers. Her awards list is insane: Best Hardcore Performer, Grooby Girl of the Year, Best VR Scene, Best Boy/Girl Scene, Best Threesome Moresome Scene, and Best DVD from the TEAs. She's also won Best Trans One-on-One Sex Scene and Best Trans Group Sex Scene at the AVN Awards, Best Trans Sex Scene (twice) at the XMAs, and Trans Movie of the Year from the Fleshbot Awards. Plus, she's a Pineapple Support Ambassador, talking openly about mental health and helping others. ### Life Beyond the Camera Before adult entertainment, Kasey was a makeup artist who went to school for her craft. When she's not filming or engaging with fans, she's competing as a one-piece trading card game player, planning her next vacation, cooking, or diving into horror movies and novels.
