Twenty-twenty-five is about yearning – loudly. From literature to film, the female gaze is finally at the forefront of the zeitgeist and audio erotica is the next frontier.
In recent years, the rise of BookTok, driven by female content creators gushing over their beloved spicy books, has seen the taboo of guilty-pleasure reads shirked. In its place, podcasts, forums and in-person events have soared in popularity, as does the literature genre – more than doubling in Australia from 2019 to 2024.
Over in Hollywood, we’ve seen the likes of Emerald Fennell’s overwhelming hornyWuthering Heights adaptation and Nicole Kidman’s Babygirl have audiences willinging to return to the actual cinema.
Then, there’s the astronomical success of TV series like The Summer I Turned Pretty. Conversation about the central love triangle became inescapable not just online, but in offices, over drinks and in passing of strangers on the street. Despite the main characters being in their late teens, the show’s devout fans spanned upward of 40-years-old.
Off the back of the show’s success, it’s no surprise growing audio erotica app, Quinn, has tapped its heartthrob, Chris Briney, to voice its new project. He’s just the latest lusted-after celeb to join the ranks of the up-and-coming platform.
Founded in 2021 by Caroline Spiegel, it’s been Quinn’s recent collaboration with Hollywood’s most desired stars that’s seen it become mainstream.
What Is The Quinn App?
Described as being “made by women, for the world”, Quinn takes romantic novels and turns them into sensual readings condensed into 15 to 20 minute clips.
Its audio erotica portfolio spans “spicy audio stories, dirty talk and more” all designed to help you get off. The idea for the platform was born from Spiegel’s own experience and frustration with sexual dysfunction.
How Does Quinn Work?
Anyone can sign up to be a Quinn voice actor, so if you’ve got the deep soothing pipes to suit, this could be a great gig for you.
As for listeners, you can follow the voice of your favourite creators or listen to one of the many internet boyfriends the platform has recruited.
The platform also has a number of categories to suit every sexual preference from BDSM to age gap romances.
The app works on a subscription model, and costs between $4.99 and $7.99 per month for unlimited access.
Which Celebrities Are On Quinn?
Chris Briney is the latest star to join Quinn with an original audio story called Hidden Harbour. The synopsis reads: “When River comes home for the summer, he doesn’t plan on falling for his brother’s ex.”
A bit on the nose following TSITP? Maybe. But they’re just giving us what we want.
Jamie Campbell Bower of The Mortal Instruments fame play rock musician Theo in The Trials.
Then, there’s Tom Blyth, star of the latest Hunger Games film and upcoming Emily Henry adaptation, People We Meet On Vacation, in a tale called The Muse.
Our favourite hot priest, Andrew Scott has leant his voice to the app as has Emily In Paris’ Lucian Laviscount, Thomas Doherty and Jesse Williams.
