In his latest piece, British storyteller Jimmy Hogg looks at his adolescent introduction to sex, from discovering a stash of porn magazines to his first time with a woman. Hogg entertains with awkward, embarrassing details—a love for the early works of Paula Abdul, making out just after eating a sausage roll, and "doing it" while a puppet show runs on TV. Using only his voice and body (and a few well-placed sound cues), Hogg keeps the audience eating out of the palm of his hand, whether he is telling the main story or is on one of his many side excursions.
