Caleb Hammer doesn't get why men pay for OnlyFans: "There's a lot of free porn out there. Why are people paying for it? It's the chatting... you're talking to an agency, or someone overseas. That is pretty pathetic." Tap for more more unfiltered takes from Caleb: ply.by/8zsg01 Executive Producer, Video: Daniel Waynick Editor, Video: Celine Ordioni

Caleb Hammer built one of YouTube's biggest shows by doing one thing: making strangers show him their bank statements, then telling them exactly what they're doing wrong. Millionaire OnlyFans creators. The guys who blow all their money on them. Avowed socialists. Disney adults in debt. And Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer. One critic calls him "the number one entry point to the right-wing pipeline." Others call him the Jerry Springer of our era. He just keeps rolling tape.

For our Fall Issue, we asked 2,373 young Americans ages 18–29 about sex, dating, and desire to get to the bottom of the question: Is the sex recession actually real? Their answers may surprise you. To see the full results of our partnership with Julie and the Kinsey Institute, visit sexsurvey.playboy.com 🔗 Editor-in-Chief: Phillip Picardi Executive Producer, Video: Daniel Waynick DP: José Jaimes Editor, Video: Celine Ordioni

In 1986, Playboy asked America how it was doing in bed. Four decades later, we teamed up with Julie and the Kinsey Institute to ask Gen Z the same question, and the answer surprised us. Nearly a third of respondents haven't had sex in three months, while for one in five, it's never happened at all. Desire itself seems to be fading too, since almost a fifth report no interest in sex whatsoever, and another chunk say the timing just isn't right for them now. What's driving this shift, and what does it mean for how a generation connects? The full 2026 Sex Survey has the answers: sexsurvey.playboy.com Photography by Ed Templeton

"I just want to do things that make me feel alive. That's sort of all I'm ever chasing." So what actually makes Charli XCX feel alive? "Doing exactly what I want the moment I want to do it. Not thinking of consequences. Going away spontaneously. Staying up all night with my friends. Putting my body through something quite brutal and then surviving and becoming stronger on the other side."

Making our 2026 Playmate of the Year shoot extra special: this year's shoot was captured by January 2026 Playmate Carlotta Kohl. Carlotta joined Mahina on Oahu's North Shore for a day of barefoot beach walks, bike rides, and poke bites. In Hawaii, Florence says, sexiness requires very little wardrobe planning: "You just kind of stay ready. You are in your bikini all day long," surfing, hanging around with friends. What turns her on is uncomplicated: a hard workout, a few days of eating clean, and feeling mentally and physically well. Mahalo nui (many thanks), Mahina.

Introducing Playboy's 2026 Playmate of the Year: Mahina Florence. Raised on Oahu's North Shore, Florence is the first Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) woman ever to hold the title—one year after appearing as Miss April in the Winter 2025–26 issue. When Playboy called with the news, she was incredulous: "Are you sure? No take-backs. You got the right girl? Are you positive?" Right girl, guaranteed.
