It's finally out, dear listener!

Our new episode, long time coming, will take a whack at the concept -- and the social/sexual/political/racial/economic/religious phenomenon (did I miss anything?) -- of cuckoldry.

Though Sagi originally suggested it for the obvious purpose of exploring the alt-Right and their repeated "Cuck" accusations towards the left in the United States, Jake had the ludicrous idea that  a Shakespeare play that deals with cuckoldry was the way to go.

Is it something about the virtual - and homo-social/sexual - nature of paternity (and ownership) that makes the "cuck" spread so corrosively, not just in societal gossip, but in an ego? The woman's flesh and sexuality seem to get in the way of an inter-masculine relationship here...

Is it something about the invisible hand of "the market" that - like in the example of Blackwater (and other PMCs used by "the good guys" to "do the bad things") - that permits layers of separation from, thus allowing deniability of, the seat of power? The hand invisibilizes (sue me) itself from view so that it can continue this, its imperial violence by other means"...

Andy will chime in with Franz Fanon's analyses of the white man's "negrophobia"; it is the manifestation of guilt that is the result of having repressed carnality itself to the black body (the body of the non-Christian and the non-Jew).
The jealousy and feelings of insecurity that result are part of this, the white man's, fantasy. It often appears in the modality of a cuckoldry: the essentially-sinful woman is satiated (or, on the flipside, "must not be satiated") with the essentially-sinful man, while the pure (and sexless - all he cares about is work!) white man remains outside the picture, but firmly holding on to its frame.

Naturally, the air will be full of tossed salads, cookies, and other half-baked projectiles.
