UW-La Crosse Chancellor Joe Gow was fired in a unanimous vote by the Board of Regents after appearing in adult videos with his wife.
During a Sept. 7 interview with UW-La Crosse student newspaper The Racquet Press, Gow told the publication he was looking forward to supporting his wife, Carmen Wilson, as “she creates a cookbook and instructional videos titled 'Cooking with Carmen.'”
The couple has posted nine videos on their Youtube channel Sexy Healthy Couple — described as “a plant-powered couple [making] delicious vegan food with top adult stars,” per a channel description — with the first posted on Dec. 9, 2023, as first reported by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The videos feature Gow and Wilson making recipes alongside adult film entertainers and small segments of suggestive material.
The channel’s Twitter account advertises “fully explicit scenes” on their OnlyFans account.
In one video, Gow shows a book entitled “Monogamy with Benefits: How Porn Enriches Our Relationship,” which he says he wrote with Wilson. The book is listed under pen names Geri and Jay Hart, which are described on Amazon as “pen names of a married woman and man who serve in executive positions at two well-known organizations in the U.S.”
That's it. That is literally what they fired him over.
Well, hopefully they'll be helped by the droves of people like me who subscribed to their YouTube after reading this. This is how I get my husband into veganism!
(btw - if you also have trouble finding them, the article has the channel name and the video series both slightly wrong - the channel is Sexy Happy Couple, the video series is Sexy Healthy Cooking.)
Oh okay, thank you for filling me in! I didn't know that was a trope, or that it usually doesn't work for other people. I hope explaining it to me didn't ruin the humor for you!
