Your host

Former security expert and private investigator, veteran of the adult industry’s backstage, habitual world traveler, aficionado of fine booze, podcast host.

No matter what continent he finds himself on, Matt Slayer has a knack for finding the dingiest corner of a stranger-filled bar and coming out of it with a story and a friend.

Hailing from Chicago, Illinois, Matt Slayer began his work in the adult industry via connections he made while working security. He mainly found work as hired muscle handling security, roadie-work, and physical invoice assistance, all with relative charm and minimal intoxication.

And Now We Drink was born out of Slayer’s work as a private investigator.

“During my day, I ended up getting into podcasts; what else will you do when you have 6-8 hours of sitting in your car? I figured, I know a lot of interesting people, I like talking. I’m a white dude with a beard in L.A. This means I’m supposed to do a podcast, right?”

After realizing he knows how to use a microphone and has met tons of interesting people, Matt brought his unique and wide range of experiences and connections together to host a show like no other — and found a way to monetize his drinking habits while doing it.

Alcohol is a great conversational lubricant, and no topic is off-limits as Slayer and his guests delve into their personal experiences, sharing shameless stories that make you laugh, cringe, and maybe even blush a bit. Listen in to discover more about their unique experiences and perspectives on sex, relationships, and life.

And Now We Drink has earned nominations for Favorite Adult Podcast in AVN’s 2023 and 2024 Fan-Voted Awards, and Most Popular Radio Show/Podcast in the 2023 and 2024 Urban X Awards.
