It’s the oldest profession in the world. It’s even been referenced in the Hebrew Bible. Brothels have existed in Nevada since the old mining days of the 1800s. Nevada’s prostitution is strictly regulated and must be in areas away from rural areas. In this episode, we discuss prostitution in The United States, from the current brothels in Nevada to that time Rhode Island accidentally legalized prostitution.

Anita Hill has inspired generations of women leaders to protect women, and protect them in the workplace. She ignited a movement, inspired, led and transformed cultures.

Anita Hill was an early entry into the pantheon of women shamed for exposing high-powered men. Before Christine Beasley Ford in 2018 and even before Monica Lewinsky in 1998, there was Anita Hill. In 1991 when George H. W. Bush nominated Clarence Thomas for the supreme court. An interview that Hill gave to the FBI was leaked to the press. In the interview, Hill told stories of her supervisor Clarence Thomas discussing beastiality, porn movies with rape scenes or group sex, and his own sexual prowess and anatomy.

For eight hours, Hill testified under the hot glare of cameras and lights in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. She was forced to answer grueling questions like if she was a woman scorned, had a martyr complex, or had plans to be a hero in the civil rights movement.

The hearings polarized Americans. Some thought she was a “scorned'' woman and attention seeking while others found her treatment by the Senate Judiciary Committee sexist and demeaning. The scandal motivated a number of women to enter politics. 1992 became known as “The Year of The Woman” as a historic number of women were elected into Congress. The Senate and House grew from 6 women to 47.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the longest-running theatrical release in film history. It’s established itself as a cult classic with over 46 years of midnight screenings. It was one of the first musicals to depict fluid sexuality and is said to have been an influence on the countercultural and sexual liberation movements that followed. We're joined this week by our friend, Bernie Bregmen, from Experience Level Entertainment. 

Bernie has been producing events since 2010 starting with the 35th Anniversary Rocky Horror convention working with executive producer, Lou Adler. Since then, Bernie has worked with several entertainment giants such as Fox, MGM, and Marvel to name a few. He’s produced major events from wrap parties to full conventions, screenings to film festivals, and concerts to masquerades. Bernie has worked with Rock n Roll Hall of Famers such as Run DMC and The Black Eyed Peas, Redman, Slick Rick, and Flava Flav on events like the Los Angeles Comic Con Cosplay Ball and events at San Diego Comic Con. 

In 2017 he produced Stan Lee’s 95th Birthday celebration at Stark Mansion in Hollywood. Bernie has cemented his role in the pop-culture landscape and we’re thrilled to have him as our guest today.

We discussed the cultural phenomenon of seeing Rocky Horror in a theater with a shadow cast and callback lines. How do the traditions of the virgin sacrifice and the slut shaming hold up in the post #metoo world? Are the remakes any good? Join us as we do the time warp again!

On June 23, 1993, between 3:30 and 4:30 A.M., Lorena Bobbitt, cut off the penis of her sleeping husband, John Wayne Bobbitt, in Manassas, Virginia. The case was an immediate sensation. How could it not have been? Hyped up by both journalists and comedians, her trial in January of 1994 was the world’s number one media event. Had Lorena murdered her sleeping husband, her name would not be a household name.

How did the penis of John Wayne Bobbitt end up in a grassy field across the street from a 7 Eleven? How did it change the public views on marital rape and domestic violence in the early 90’s. Only one month before, martial rape was outlawed in all 50 states.

Today, we are joined by Joleen Lunzer, who hosts the Married To Bravo Podcast that is available on iTunes and Spotify. She also has a popular YouTube recapping guilty pleasures of ours like 90 Day Fiancé, Big Brother, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and MTV the Challenge. You can follow her across all social media @JoleenLunzer.

Join us as we discuss the cut heard around the world.

Buried beneath divisions and sub-groups in the CIA, MKUltra . Today we are joined by friend to the podcast Ditty as we discuss
Operation Climax was a sub project of MK-Ultra. A top secret program that sanctioned the use of psycho active drugs on American citizens.

It began as early as 1950, but wasn’t official until 1953, using shady psychiatrist, prisons and mental institutions to perform these studies. They were motivated to combat the Soviet “truth serum” and its purpose was to develop techniques and drugs for mind control.

The CIA set up several brothels within agency safe houses in San Francisco to obtain a selection of men who would be too embarrassed to talk about the events. The men were doused with LSD and prostitutes were instructed in the use of post-coital questioning to investigate whether its unknowing “test subjects” could be convinced to reveal secrets while being watched by agents behind one way glass.

William Henry Cosby Jr. broke cultural and racial barriers in 1961 when he co starred in I Spy and won three Emmys. He wrote best selling books about parenthood, had a Grammy award winning comic routine where he developed the Fat Albert character, developed The Cosby Show where he played Cliff Huxtable and gained the reputation of being “America’s Dad”. He endorsed Jell-O products, and Coca Cola he was a husband and a father. America grieved with him when his son Ennis, was murdered in 1997. 

Years ago we watched Bill Cosby, smiling at his warm hearted moments, and with his silly dad jokes and self-deprecating humor only now to realize the man who left an entire generation wishing he was their father but… he was also a monster. 

A monster who preyed on women, manipulating them into a false sense of security, grooming them and drugging them and assaulting them while he played a character who embodied a family oriented comedian.

The COVID-19 pandemic created a massive upheaval in our lives, and many people are still dealing with its effects. For single people, lockdowns and safety guidelines totally changed the way we date and pursue romantic relationships.
