Effervescent, thoughtful king and GayVN award-nominated porn star Cody Seiya joins us on the latest edition of our current events talk show, DADDY ISSUES. In the first half of the episode, Cody describes how art and anime offered solace from his difficult relationship with his late father and his upbringing as a Chinese American Jew in the Reagan-esque hell of Orange Country, California. He also discusses his plans to become a father, and how father themes show up in his own art. Then it’s on to the news in the second half, where we cover the Club Q tragedy in Colorado Springs and Iran at the World Cup, as well as the brutal paternal legacy of Britney Spears, Tiffany Trump’s farty wedding, Elon Musk’s pitiful relationship with his daughter, and Yuletide empress Mariah Carey’s tribute to her late dad.
