Ever paid for a Affection in Pattaya and wondered what it really costs?

In this unfiltered, no-bullsh*t episode of My Thai Wife Podcast, Mike sits down with Koi, the sexiest ladyboy in Thailand’s wildest city, for a conversation that’s equal parts seductive, shocking, and soul-baring. If you’ve ever walked down Soi 6 and thought you understood the game—think again.

Koi has spent nearly a decade navigating the neon-lit jungle of Pattaya’s bar scene. From her early days hustling 2,500 baht plus drink commissions on Soi-7 to her current reign at 69 Bar, she’s seen it all: the players, the paydays, the promises, and the heartbreak. She breaks down the unwritten rules of bar girl survival—how to flirt without feeling, how to spot a wallet from across the room, and how to keep the fantasy alive just long enough to get paid.

“I gotta have iPhone. I gotta have gold,” she says, with the kind of unapologetic swagger that only comes from living the hustle. She’s been the fantasy—dolled up, seductive, and ready to play the part. But now? She’s done acting. Koi strips off the mask and lays it all bare: the emotional toll, the blurred lines between love and transaction, and the moment she chose truth over performance.

Mike guides the conversation with his signature mix of comic edge, streetwise curiosity, and deep respect for the Game and its Rules. He doesn’t just ask questions—he digs. And what comes out isn’t just juicy nightlife gossip—it’s a raw, intimate portrait of a Ladyboy who’s lived every shade of Pattaya’s pleasure and pain.

This episode isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s for the curious, the jaded, the romantics, and the skeptics. Whether you’ve been seduced, scammed, or just fascinated by Thailand’s nightlife, Koi’s story will slap you awake, challenge your assumptions, and leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about ladyboys, love, and the price of connection.

What happens when life takes an unexpected turn and you find yourself building a completely different reality than you planned? Meet Kat, a 29-year-old Californian whose path veered dramatically from Japan to Thailand during the pandemic, creating a life that revolves around Pattaya's pulsing nightlife.

"I was going nuts back home just sitting around," Kat explains, describing his impulsive decision to relocate to Thailand when borders reopened. Starting in Bangkok before settling in Pattaya, he reveals the fascinating economics of expat life—how he lives comfortably on less than $15,000 annually while maintaining a lifestyle that would be unsustainable in the West. "I live cheap," he shares, "even when I'm making money too."

The conversation offers rare insights into Pattaya's bar culture, where manager positions typically pay around 30,000 baht ($850) monthly plus commission. Kat's unconventional schedule—waking at 10:30 PM and socializing until morning—perfectly aligns with what he calls a "night town" atmosphere. "Everything's at night here," he explains, revealing how this nocturnal rhythm actually matches his natural tendencies back home.

We explore his entrepreneurial past breeding French Bulldogs (selling puppies for $3,000-12,000 each), cultural misunderstandings between tourists and locals, and the unique social dynamics that make Thailand's expat communities so distinctive. For anyone curious about alternative lifestyles or considering their own international adventure, this candid conversation pulls back the curtain on the realities—both challenging and liberating—of creating a life abroad on your own terms.

Welcome to a raw, unfiltered look into the real Pattaya that tourists rarely glimpse. Mike and Ellie welcome back fan-favorite guest Fam for a conversation that weaves through the complexities of Thailand's infamous nightlife, challenging stereotypes and revealing human stories behind the neon lights.

The trio dives into fascinating territory as they discuss the surprising sexual preferences among bar workers, where many women find themselves attracted to other women or "tomboys" after years in the industry. Fem shares candid insights about her own experiences, while the hosts recount the story of meeting a successful ladyboy entrepreneur who became a mother through surrogacy – a rare and touching narrative that reveals the diverse realities of LGBTQ+ lives in Thailand.

Business realities take center stage as the group discusses the closure of the memorably-named "Wet Pussy" bar, consolidating with their other venue "Nympho" during low season. This behind-the-scenes look at bar management reveals why so many foreigners fail when attempting to open venues in Pattaya, despite the common fantasy of easy success in Thailand's entertainment industry.

The conversation takes a personal turn when Ellie discusses her dating preferences, leading to an impromptu matchmaking session where listeners are invited to apply as potential suitors. Food culture becomes another highlight, with the hosts sharing authentic restaurant recommendations while dispelling myths about food safety in Thailand – including Mike's unfortunate encounters with food poisoning and why drinking tap water remains taboo.

Whether you're planning a trip to Thailand or simply fascinated by its unique cultural landscape, this episode offers valuable insights from those who live and work in one of Asia's most misunderstood destinations. The honest perspectives shared here go far beyond tourist clichés, revealing the human connections, business challenges, and cultural nuances that make Pattaya such a compelling place.

The neon-lit streets of Pattaya have changed dramatically over the years, and nobody knows this better than the locals who've watched its evolution firsthand. Remember those makeshift street bars with simple cocktail counters that once dotted every corner? They're vanishing, replaced by more sophisticated establishments that reflect Thailand's changing nightlife culture.

Our conversation takes you behind the velvet ropes of Pattaya's club scene, revealing insights you won't find in any travel guide. From the sleek beach-front establishments like Beer Hub with their stunning bay views to the packed Thai Isan clubs where locals drop serious cash despite "cheap" drink prices, we explore what makes each venue unique.

The dynamics of Pattaya's nightlife ecosystem fascinate as we discuss how club popularity has shifted dramatically post-COVID. Republic emerged as the hotspot when everything reopened, but its strict VIP policies are driving away big spenders. Meanwhile, Flex has become the go-to with its inclusive atmosphere and smart layout combining dance floors, VIP areas, and pool tables. And Mist? It's packed every single night as the after-party destination of choice.

What makes this discussion particularly valuable is our insider perspective on which establishments welcome everyone (including ladyboys) and which maintain stricter door policies. We break down why Thai clubs are currently the most profitable ventures in Pattaya's entertainment landscape, with Area 39 drawing lines before opening every night.

Whether you're planning a night out in Thailand or simply curious about how nightlife cultures evolve, our candid breakdown of Pattaya's clubs, bars, and after-hours spots offers a passport to experiences most tourists never discover. From crocodile meat tastings to bottle service strategies, we've lived it all and are sharing the unfiltered truth.

Ready to experience Pattaya nightlife like a local? Follow our recommendations and you'll know exactly where to find the perfect vibe for your evening—and maybe even spot us showing off our questionable dance moves after midnight.
