This week on Blurry Hysteria, we're pulling rabbits out of uncomfortable hats!

First up, the U.S. government is waving its moral wand again with a proposed federal bill to standardize obscenity laws—which sounds like code for “bye-bye porn, hello legal chaos.” Is this a noble crusade to clean up the internet, or just the 500th reboot of Footloose, but with more pixels and fewer dance numbers? Either way, we’re not sure if we should be horrified or just... slightly bored.

Then, we conjure up the magical tale of The Magic Circle’s first female member, who fooled the boys' club by disguising herself as a man in the early 1900s. Spoiler alert: she was better at sleight of hand and mustache application than any of them. Gender-bending misdirection? Now that’s a trick worth applauding.

Tune in for a magical and moderately NSFW episode where illusion meets institution, and nothing is quite what it seems!
