About Philadelphia

Little known tidbit—Victorian brothels had secret codes! Knock twice, wink, get in—sneaky bastards! Love that hustle, keeps it spicy. Ever wonder who’s runnin these gigs? Sometimes it’s badass ladies—heard bout this madam in Nevada, ruled like a queen! Total boss move, made me cheer. But then—ugh—some sleazy pimp vibes ruin it. Greasy hair, gold chains—cliché much? Wanna zap ‘em to the Netherworld, swear!
