Speak with Eve Eurydice

Eurydice Eve speaks the romantic call of the drumbeat of war with the author Robert Steiner. This is how patriarchies survive: not rationally. So we are not posthistorical? The contradiction: the West is saying “How can Putin do this we are post war” & at the same time we take sides & send weapons & money to one side so as to escalate the war & the numbers of the dead. We discuss the war in Ukraine in the context of history of patriarchy, the False Promise of the EU and of global capitalism. Corporate globalism promised that war would end. We would all be Europeans. Prosperity would put an end to inherited racist animosities. But Patriarchy is our Drug and our Fatal Romance. ⚡️ A decent human puts the good of others above his own. A strongman sacrifices numerous lives to what he thinks is right, ie, to his self-interest. When two strongmen go at it, they don’t care of the cost in lives. This war theatre is primal patriarchal drama: the younger strongman wants to castrate the older strongman, as Zeus did to Kronus, & Kronus to Uranus. Zelensky is not the face of freedom. He’s the younger face of nationalism. He’s adept at guilt-tripping the West, replaying the familiar drama of patriarchal family. He would not placate the patriarch. He chose to fight the tyrant to death. Mothers have placated patriarchs for millennia. That’s the difference between patriarchy and non. The self fulfilling prophecy is fear. Patriarchy is irrational. And it calls Nature irrational. Change comes as Reversal of Fortune. Nothing lasts forever. Patriarchy wagers that it can last forever so long as it cares not which patriarch wins. The only good thing in democracy is change: the rulers change, the more often, the better.⚡️Robert Steiner is the author of Quill, Bathers, Passion, Dread, Matinee, Toward a Grammar of Abstraction and more books of fiction. https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/authorpage/robert-steiner.html ⚡️ For more podcast content, go to https://Speaksexeve.com ⚡️ For books, art, merch, go to https://Eurydice.net ⚡️ For Apple podcast, subscribe to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speak-sex-with-eve/id1448261953 ⚡️Find our video episodes at https://YouTube.com/SpeakSexwithEveEurydice ⚡️ #speaksex #eveEurydice #Eurydice #Eurudice

Eve Eurydice speaks with Pulitzer-winning writer & war correspondent Chris Hedges about war as collective madness. Chris knows the intoxication of war, even addiction to war, first-hand. Chris gives us his take on what is happening in the world arena right now and why it is happening. We discuss the return of war in Europe caused by flawed past peace treaties. We discuss war as patriarchy’s rite of initiation into adulthood, Eros & Thanatos, the Life instinct & the Death instinct. War as seductive, enticing intoxication because it’s an expression of virility, of pride. War is emotionally driven, not rationally driven. The patriarchy conflates war with sex, since patriarchy began in the conflation of procreation with domination. In 6,000 years man’s instinct of domination has become inexorably confused with man’s instinct to mate. War is ultimately self destructive. Thucydides wrote that The tyranny that Athens imposed on others, it finally imposed on itself. The instinct to control is self destructive. Every action has a reaction; we are all connected as part of the mass brain. War disconnects the people in one country from another. Nationalism unleashes forces of indoctrination based on the dualism of ‘With us or against us,’ patriot or traitor. When politics surrenders to HyperNationalism in the name of the fatherland, millions die. Only the uber-rich profit from the slaughter.⚡️Chris Hedges is a journalist, minister, author, television host. He was a correspondent for The New York Times in Central America, the Middle East, Africa, the Balkans. He is the author of a dozen books, including America the Farewell Tour; War is the Force that Gives us Meaning; Empire of Illusion; Death of the Liberal Class; and Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt. Chris Hedges covered war up close in the Balkans, the Middle East, and Central America.

Eve Eurydice speaks with the acclaimed writer William T. Vollmann in a Valentine’s special interview. We discuss Creativity as Transgression. Erotica. The Sexual Revolution. The Liberation of Man. Jung’s Anima & Animus. The Union of Opposites. Desire as unspeakable freedom from the bounds of the self, connection to timelessness, to the divine, to awe in nature. Love as submission to nature, especially challenging for the male who has been trained to conquer nature. The challenge for those who speak sex is to find balance between nature & culture, to overcome culture’s taboo separation between mind & body, to invent a new language that’s neither sentimentalism nor smut.⚡️To buy Eurydice’s new erotica, titled “Eve’s Academy,” follow this link to New Urge Editions: https://blackscatbooks.com/2021/08/17/leave-it-to-eve/⚡️ For more, go to https://Speaksexpodcast.com ⚡️ For books, art, merch by Eurydice, go to https://Eurydice.net ⚡️ For Apple podcast, subscribe to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speak-sex-with-eve/id1448261953 ⚡️Find our video episodes at https://YouTube.com/SpeakSexwithEveEurydice ⚡️ #speaksex #eveEurydice #Eurydice #Eurudice #williamtvollmann #interview #podcast

Eve Eurydice speaks with Danié Gómez Ortigoza, a Mexican-American model and multi-media artist who practices braiding with intention. We discuss revisiting our relationship with our bodies and revaluing our natural bodies rather than leaving them behind and supplanting them with avatars. Danié sees our hair as a connection to our soul; as our body’s antennas or whiskers; in the manner of native peoples who are more attuned to nature. She uses braiding circles to create Portals of human connection and chakra protection and to set the mental frame for the day. When we give ourselves away without ego, we receive. We also discuss mothering. Motherhood is the work of not breaking continuity. Legally mother still belongs to patriarchy, bears the man’s name, lives in the man’s house, for the system of families has gone on after the Patriarchy, when the man was inserted in the center like the rooster and the family worked around him. Families existed before patriarchy and the dynamics between mothers and children have stayed constant despite the cultural interventions. Daily rituals centered mothers and children for millennia to earth herbs feminine time the cycles of nature and have survived the cultural war in various adaptations. The Knowledge in ancient native rituals is important for our survival especially if we end up having to become climate nomads. The metaverse will be extinct then. ⚡️For Danié, braiding is a portal into the soul and the main subject of her exploration of rituals and ancestry. Her project ‘Back to nature’ is a call for union and understanding the importance of reconnecting to Earth; in ‘Braiding Ceremony,’ she explores the act of braiding women into one hand-sewn fabric that brings all the braids together as one. Danié has worked as a television host for Disney, an advertising Copywriter and Digital Strategist in Mexico and Canada, Marketing Director for a media publication in Sweden, and correspondent for Glamour Mexico and Latin America in Miami, where she received a Fashion Group International Award. Danié sees community as the structure to re-engineer the world, and co-created ‘The Bazaar for Good,’ a philanthropic venture that uses fashion to raise funds for projects with social impact.

Eve Eurydice speaks with psychologist Ingrid D’Aquin about what it’s like to be a Woman & a Sex Worker in 2022. What is choice, freedom & responsibility, youth & experience, & sexual exchange in capitalism. Culture is manmade. We can shift our cultural allyship as we grow our boundaries change and accepting that we self judge less. We self update our operational system. Money affects our psychology. Money modifies our life choices. Money controls our behavioral patterns. Money determines what we consent to. Money informs our morals. Money is our promissory note. Money also muddles up our social contracts. We discuss marriage and dating, and Ingrid shares stories and insights from her decades of work in psychotherapy. For more on Ingrid D’Aquin, go to

Human Social Liberation can only occur at the Intersection of Sex and Money where the Patriarchy Hits Us the deepest, and longest; at the intersection of our boundaries which is where we humans are most fecund. Eve Eurydice speaks with Po-Hong Yu, an Energetic healer, Daoist author, spiritual embodiment healer, acupuncturist and founder of COIN Money Manifestation Membership Groups. The truth is where the unspeakable is. The truth is what we don’t have a lexicon for. Stroke the truth. The more we stroke, the more we thaw, the more we unlock. The feminine is the most powerful force. It’s in a deficient space as the masculine has been in excess. We of the rising feminine self contract in order to appear masculine enough to be given a job a name a voice that’s not our male owner’s voice. We compress oppress camouflage gain weight hide our body everything about us that doesn’t fit in. We shut down. We can’t feel. Because this language isn’t our language, it’s the language of patriarchal authority. This 24-hr news cycle isn’t our time, it’s masculine time. The law, the medicine, the science isn’t ours. The global economy wants replaceable workers, & that’s why neoliberal feminism was permitted. Our procreative function is fully formed before our brain is fully formed because we have created so much excess culture that our brain takes longer to develop. A woman has 20 years to procreate. A man can inseminate for life. Yet women are judged by the same cycle where in our twenties we must study in our thirties begin a career. And the economy shows no respect for the work of a mother. Culture is geared toward one nonprocreative functionality. When we conceive we lose our freedom because we are no longer a dude. The assumed lack of control and agency that comes with the procreator body proves that our norms are masculinized. Our culture was set up to reverse man’s procreative disadvantage and has made up for his procreative dependency in a myriad ways. Even now that science and law have separated sex from procreation, society is stacked against the procreative feminine. Let us tap into our feminine and our procreator, awaken our non-masculine, and demand Radical Social change, a social programming update.⚡️For more on Po-Hong Yu, read Stop Hiding Behind Your Weight. ⚡️For more Speak Sex, go to https://Speaksexpodcast.com ⚡️For books, art, merch by Eurydice, go to https://Eurydice.net ⚡️For Apple podcast, subscribe to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speak-sex-with-eve/id1448261953 ⚡️For video episodes, subscribe to https://YouTube.com/EveEurydice

Eve Eurydice explains the differences between Nature and Culture and the difference between love or lust and financial transaction. Eurydice believes we have entered in the West the era of Post Patriarchy. It is an era of chaos and confusion until we open a path toward a new social organization that’s no longer patriarchy. Humanity separated sex from procreation since the 1970s in silence and in law. It has yet to recognize this separation in mores and customs, in organized dynastic human relations. The power advantage of the mother has been denied and reversed through the thousands of years of Patriarchy. The reason for this was the procreative disadvantage of man, both biologically and epistemologically. Patriarchy was set up to reverse the procreative neediness of man and to provide man with access to means of genetic lineage. ⚡️WWII was a moment of reckoning that war among men was species-wide suicide. This led to technological and scientific development including the genetic sequencing, the key to paternity, the unraveling of the mystery of procreation. ⚡️We are all non procreators until we birth. All gender is social gender. ⚡️ Feminism has been another way for nonprocreators to control procreators. We need to revisit our history in order to begin to understand our future. Eurydice unpacks our romantic relationships and breaks down the precultural reasons of our love lives. ⚡️For more Speak Sex, go to https://Speaksexpodcast.com ⚡️ For books, art, merch by Eurydice, go to https://Eurydice.net ⚡️ For Apple podcast, subscribe to https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speak-sex-with-eve/id1448261953 ⚡️For video episodes, subscribe to https://YouTube.com/SpeakSexwithEveEurydice ⚡️#speaksex #eveEurydice #Eurydice #Eurudice #motherhood #procreativerelations #procreativedynamics #history #patriarchy #agrarianera #love #mating

Eve Eurydice speaks with psychologist Dinna Alexanyan. A man needs to go to a woman to have children. A man needs to Own exclusive rights to a womb. That’s the real reason for the Patriarchy. The primal Reason for Marriage & Monogamy. We eliminated that reason long ago with DNA and paternity tests. We are going through the rituals of marriage and monogamy but the Meaning and the Necessity is absent. The Real Justification is Missing. It’s a Cultural Lie. The old Need for Marriage for the Perpetuation of Species is no longer. It’s a primordial Habit. It’s a Bad Habit we can Break. We have legally and scientifically separated Sex and Love from procreation. It’s a legal & scientific fact, but it’s not a social & moral fact yet. Socially we are lagging far behind our own science. We must update our mores and conventions. In Patriarchy, we understand Relationship as Ownership. Because our knowledge of it all starts with man seeking an exclusive ownership of the womb. And man’s urge gets mirrored back by women in love. We now conflate possession, esp. monetary possession, with love. We understand love as ownership, and love choice as risk ratio (the more you’re willing to risk, the more you show your love). Monogamy is procreatively obsolete but in our Patriarchy, love is driven by who’s the highest bidder. If we want true love, we must get the Government Out of Marriage. In place of Marriage, a couple can Come up with a public Marrying (& need be an advance Unmarrying) Ritual. If society takes the $ & perks out of Marriage, and if neither partner will lose the children, the property, the inheritance if they separate, if neither partner gets punished, if there’s a preexisting legal agreement in case of an uncoupling, only then can a coupling begin to be authentic and not enforced and transactional. ⚡️ Dinna Alexanyan is a licensed Psychotherapist, Theta Healer, teacher, Mediator, ordained Minister with a private practice of over 18 years serving clients nationally and internationally clients coping with trauma.

Eve Eurydice speaks with Michael Brody, filmmaker and co-founder of the Crested Butte Film Festival, about life in Boulder Colorado, spiritual and somatic awakening,Stan Brackage at CU and literary writing. Eurydice and Michael discuss being a man in the 21st century as a journey to integrate into wholeness and recast the masculine rites of passage into including the full spectrum of human relationship experience. Eurydice talks of Man’s Burden of Social Debt & Self-Censorship. Patriarchy doesn’t let man speak about everything man to man with nothing forbidden or diminishing; speaking truth in all the ways patriarchy has considered unmanlike. The restraints and censorships that the patriarchy (and the self raised snd trained in patriarchy) puts on men. Is man responsible for every birth he’s inseminated? Is it an assumed burden? Gender is obsolete nowadays but the weight of our patriarchal history is real and cages us all in our prescribed roles that define us since birth. The old norm culture keeps creating false social emergencies to get our attention away from the real challenges of evolution. ⚡️ Crested Butte Film Festival starts on Sept. 24 and runs until Oct. 3rd.
