Testimonials:
"Decadent Gent and his Tassel Time radio show are an essential part of Ministry of Burlesque. His dedicated delivery of classic vintage style through 21st century podcasting highlights the enduring popularity of burlesque.
The Gent himself is both an excellent host and a writer with flair for broadcasting. His charming rapport and ever rising popularity mean that performers are now fighting it out to get on to his 'list' to be interviewed."
Kittie Klaw, Ministry of Burlesque
"Listening to Tassel Time is on a par with afternoon tea, taken in the conservatory with polite company. Matt Davis, the Decadent Gent, presents his interviews the way a gentleman should - polite, relaxed and intelligently. You won't find him asking zany questions about favourite burger relishes, nor will you find him asking his guests to recite banal trivia about themselves. He researches his subjects thoroughly and asks interesting, open-ended questions, often allowing exclusive news to escape his interviewees lips. His podcast is always a pleasure to listen to, honest, grounded and very much geared towards the listeners audial pleasure."
Beatrix Von Bourbon, Performer and head of Shake It Doll Burlesque Blog
'The Decadent Gent is the kind of guy all the burlesque girls want to curl up in bed with turn on ...................and listen to his Tassel Time'
Diva Hollywood, Burlesque Performer
“The Decadent Gent is a gallant host with a bonifide gift of gab.
His aptitude for proficient patter is gilded with knowledgeable
sharp witted facts on his subjects. Tassel Time is a groundbreaking show that transports you back in time through your computer. Oh, and he makes my panties moist!”
