Dear, patient listener..
We meet again, 2 weeks late, we know.. no creative endeavor is ever an assembly line and we had to drop a dud podcast by the wayside.
Maybe it will be unearthed one day by a particularly desperate AI bot.
Maybe we'll sell it for a million dollars as a collector's item.
Until then, may it rest in peace.
This week's episode asked after the origin of identifying prostitution (typically female prostitution) as "the oldest profession."
One such delightful source can be found in the equally delightful short story by the British Subject Rudyard Kipling named 'On the City Wall' (1888). There we find Lalun, the whore grand-daughter of the whore demoness Lilith. She's a wealthy prostitute living on the city wall, manipulating the men around her, including the narrator.
Any Said or Fanon fan would find many of these discussions a blast (in one way or another), as the colonizer laments the hopelessness of the task to civilize the savage so as to deserve their freedom/independence - as is evidenced by there still being prostitutes there. There, means colonial India.
Did I say British?
I meant he was British in India.
There's more to this than can or would be covered here... Professionalism, the book of Genesis, Lilith the cowgirl and so much more!
The stars reflect this eclectic debate: Beast and Sovereign; Marx Grudge, WWJD; and of course Pervs R' Us!
