From Lauren Boebert’s push-up bra to John Fetterman’s hoodie, we talk about Senators & Congress members exercising their freedom of attire. How about togas like the Roman Senators wore (a caller proposes)? Then our U.S. Senators’ clothes might match the great Greco-Roman columns that adorn our Capitol, suggesting that we too live in a Greek-style democracy, which is really more of a Roman-style empire, pampering its patricians with tax cuts, obscene wealth & power, giving us plebeians “Bread & Circuses” while eroding all of our freedoms, except the freedom to consume hoodies, push-up bras & whatever else our maxed-out credit cards can carry… Is freedom-to-buy the best freedom we can get? One of our most vital freedoms that is under attack is freedom of speech - an ongoing topic of this rollicking ride - & Free Speech is what we are fighting for in our battle with META, the throbbing heart of the American Censorship Industrial Complex that is monopolizing & controlling human discourse more every day in increasingly digitized world. Since META unjustly terminated my Facebook & IG accounts, I've been fighting—mostly fruitlessly—for explanations & restoration. Now I am taking Zuck & META to arbitration! Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality! Midway through the Tunnel of Love, we pick up Daniele Watts (aka DaLove) & Chef Belive (now BeLove), calling from—of all places—Freedom, California. They share a fantastic tale of sharing free love in a most Bonobo Way behind a laundromat right there in Freedom AND they’re making a film, “BeDaLoveLight Wedding,” about different kinds of love—eros, agape & philia. Oh, those amazing Epicurean Greeks! And oh, those lovely bonobo sapien lovers, DaLove & BeLove, practicing Tantra in their car & living in Freedom, aka Freed OM (mani padme hum.) Or as Capt’n Max wonders, “Are we talking freedoms or Free Doms?” We also continue celebrating Self-Love September (actually, we celebrate self-love all year) as well as our Vice TV piece on my Phone Sex Therapy surpassing 200,000 views & we address Russell's Brand, Wenner's wiener, Murdoch's mess & the poor woman sentenced to two years in Nebraska prison for helping her daughter find abortion pills. Aiding & abetting this heinous sentence is META, which turned in mother & daughter’s “private” FB messages. So, not only is META the world’s biggest censor, they’re rats.
