The episode also sees Louis explore how Only Fans and social media have affected porn.

Louis interrupts to ask: “Pegging is?”
“Pegging is a strapped on dildo on a harness for penetration,” one person explains.
The camera then cuts to a deadpan Louis, while the others in the room laugh.
And what’s funnier, when the porn stars had finished filming, Louis’ narration takes us to the next scene by saying: “And with the pegging successfully concluded, there was a moment to talk.”
Of course, fans were quick to share their reactions on Twitter.
