Wednesday Dec 07, 2022
Wednesday Dec 07, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & SexualityJoin me at Yale for my 45th class reunion as I frolic among the Ivy Towers with Capt’n Max and the Eli Elite, Handsome Dan XIV, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s classmates (Class of 1987) rallying against him and Sam Alito (Yale Law, 1975) at the Women’s Table, and my fabulous fellow #Yale Alumni at the Yale Repertory Theater, Yale Law School, Cross Campus, Toad’s Place and more. I also host a Yale Roundtable discussion on “Peace, Love & Bonobos" which is the centerpiece of this video.Discussion Topics: • Why we prefer King Arthur’s ROUNDtable to Putin’s long table; • Why Yale’s “Killer Ape” Anthropology department made we want to major in Theater; • How Max and I fell in love over our mutual opposition to the popular and horrible first Gulf War, commanded by President George H.W. Bush (Yale, 1948); • How our love and antiwar fervor grew during the even more horrible wars in Iraq and Afghanistan commanded by George W. Bush (Yale, 1968); • How George W. Bush’s epic Freudian slip confusing Putin’s invasion of Ukraine with his own invasion of Iraq brought the perma-war full circle;• Why I become a sexologist; • How I first learned about #bonobos the Make Love Not War great apes, on PBS, and then met some at the San Diego Zoo; • What are some of the differences between apes and monkeys;• How human apes are very close genetically to bonobos, common chimps, gorillas and orangutans;• How bonobos make peace through pleasure;• How bonobos make love in a Bonobo Sutra of positions, including face-to-face; • How bonobo female empowerment is supported by male well-being and vice versa; • Why bonobos (and humans) really enjoy sharing—even with strangers;• Was Prince Chim, who lived at Yale in the Dr. Robert Yerkes primate center, the first bonobo in the United States?• What’s SEX got to do with bonobo conflict resolution?• Why other apes kill each other, and humans kill each other most;• “Grooming” in primatology vs. the culture wars; • Why bonobo female orgasm is most common during Hoka Hoka, aka genito-genital rubbing; • Intercourse vs. Outercourse among bonobos and humans; • Our competitive “inner chimp” vs. our cooperative “inner bonobo”;• Nature vs. Nurture and how a bunch of baboons went bonobos; • Primatologists Dr. Frans de Waal, Dr. Richard Wrangham, Dr. Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods on bonobos and Dr. Robert Sapolsky on baboons; • Food-sharing and “sex work” among bonobos;• Tool use and communication among bonobos and common chimps;• The benefits and drawbacks of Zoos; • The Lysistrata method vs. the Bonobo Way;• Yale’s Puritan origins;• Sex toys, sex education and the Religious Right;• The true story of the rise & fall of Sex Week at Yale (SWAY), created by Yale students and destroyed by false accusations from well-financed Christofascist forces, including Focus on the Family, and an ex-Yale President’s desire for a scapegoat for the unrelated-to-SWAY bad behavior of powerful Yale fraternities; • Why anti-abortion laws amount to forced breeding; • Why I’m against all wars of my lifetime, from America’s War in Vietnam, that I protested pre-Yale, to our current war in Ukraine. Yes, Putin started it, just as Bush invaded Iraq, but we (and NATO) continue it, and now is time for peace negotiations; • Why bonobos should be part of Peace Studies courses at Yale and other universities;• How our ammosexual society channels our natural sex drive into violence to the benefit of the weapons industry, the military, the prison system and the police;• “Make Kink Not War: Be Bonobo” and the Bonobo Way makes its way from our Bonoboville Reunion with Vice to DomCon 2022 to Yale; • How to avoid catching COVID at all these reunions;• How New Haven humidity messes with my hair;• Why bonobos are highly endangered and how we can help save them from extinction (so they can help us save ourselves!): Donate to Lola ya Bonobo, Friends of Bonobos, the Bonobo Conservation Initiative.• #GoBonobos for Bulldogs… Boola Boola!• Music: Yale Harkness Tower Bells; The Whiffenpoofs (Yale, 1977); Dr. Oscar Hills (Yale, 1977) on Banjo; Bales-Gitlin Band (Ginny Bales and Jay Gitlin) - “Disco Inferno” & “Johnny B. Goode”Read more prose & see the photos: https://drsusanblock.com/yale-2022

FDR (F*ck Da Rich): @DrSuzy Is Reproduction Killing Us?
Monday Dec 05, 2022
Monday Dec 05, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
Most major religions preach “Be fruitful and multiply” (Genesis 1:28). But what if human reproductive sex is destroying life on Earth? Are recent political and religious campaigns to exalt and increase human reproduction through procreation pressures & forced breeding—even as human population rises, along with intensifying climate catastrophes—racist, misogynist, selfish, greedy, diabolical or just plain dumb?
Is there an alternative? Could channeling our multi-splendored sex drives into various types of erotic recreation—as opposed to procreation—be a better, more sustainable way—the Bonobo Way? If we could just put our erotophobia aside… wouldn’t we & all the living things be better off if more of us released our inner bonobos & expressed our sex drives through consenting-adult recreational pleasures like kink, outercourse, gay sex & sharing peace through pleasure—instead of ammosexual gun culture, perma-war, cutthroat competition, insatiable consumption & having huge, unsustainable, resource-consuming, trash-producing families?
Overpopulation is real. When Capt’n Max was born 11/8/1943, the world human population was 1.5 billion. Exactly 70 years later, the population clock struck 8 billion. Unfortunately, the Earth is still the same size! Of course, the Rightwing has its own way of reducing population: sell everybody guns, make a profit, & let ‘em shoot each other. The Left’s way is more humane—at least rhetorically—but no fun. My way is #TheBonoboWay of peace through pleasure, ecosexual sustainability & fun, as we explore on this show…
We also take a couple calls, from 1) “Obsolete” currently residing in his mom’s basement, but not an incel; he’s been a “volcel” (voluntary celibate)… until now! & 2) Brady, rejecting the violent ways of his military family, says he now “loves” the Bonobo Way & his “new favorite show,” FDR… “it’s cool as hell!”
We also address Elon Musk turning Twitter Rightwing, Hunter Biden’s Laptop Let-Down, Oy Ye-in-a-Hood & Neo-Nazi-to-the-Stars Nick Fuentes praising Hitler like Jesus, & continuing to complain about “the Jews,” leaving us to parse: who are “the Jews” & what can the rest of humanity blame us for? Not that I take that blame, but I do take the opportunity to say: Free Palestine! And Free Assange! This week, a bunch of media said what we’ve said for 10 years: Imprison the war criminals, not the journalists who tell the truth about war. Make KiNK Not War, you war porn lovers! Beware the Trumpus & a very Merry Kinky Krampus to all!

FDR (F*ck Da Rich): @DrSuzy Mythical Wishboner
Tuesday Nov 29, 2022
Tuesday Nov 29, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
Taking the scenic route—from the mythical village of Bonoboville to the dairy farms of upstate New York by way of Atlantis, from the terrible tragedy of Colorado’s Club Q to the incel dream of Don’t Worry Darling (a great Date Night movie!) to the mountains of central Italy, birthplace of the great grandparents of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the phony “cafone” of fascism—our Love Train travels through time… Last week’s FDR was a VOTER Boner, but now Herschel Walker’s saying, “this erection is about the people.” Meanwhile I win our Spanksgiving wishbone-snap… does that make me a Wishboner?
On a serious, tragic note, we mourn the victims of the Club Q massacre the heroes who stopped the killer, especially the trans woman who put her high heel to valiant use. No praise for the #ClubQ killer’s Dad, Aaron Brink, an adult performer who’s more worried about his son being gay than a mass murderer.
We also take Callin calls from Lance in upstate New York who’s obsessed with Atlanteans as aliens and wants to start a workers coop for ex-prisoners, and with Schnarf in the Bronx by way of Puerto Rico who has a bunch of questions about masturbation, penis size, exhibitionism and insecurity. We go into overtime trying to reassure Schnarf that his equipment is big “enough," and hopefully he sees the light... Thanks to the evil machinations of the Megamachine of capitalism, conquest and competition, nothing is ever “enough.” It’s pretty powerful, but it can still be defeated, or at least avoided, at least in small mythical villages, by the power of sharing pleasure, the Bonobo Way.
Peace on Earth. Pleasure for All. Step away from the #MegaMachine. That’s my Mythical Wishboner-winning wish for the Holidaze!

FDR (F*ck Da Rich): @DrSuzy Happy Thanksgiving & Slappy Spanksgiving 2022
Tuesday Nov 22, 2022
Tuesday Nov 22, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
Season’s Beatings! On Thanksgiving, we give thanks, & on Spanksgiving, we give spanks. It’s Our Duty to Spank Booty on Spanksgiving. Historically, SPANKSgiving is more reality-based than THANKSgiving. Those musket-wielding Pilgrims were less likely to share food with the Wampanoag Natives than slaughter them, kickstarting the North American genocide. Thanks, but no thanksgiving.
But every day was SPANKSgiving among those sadistic Pilgrims & Puritans who administered frequent spankings, paddlings, whippings, “stocks & bonds,” tar & feathering, “public disgrace” & witch-hanging. Of course, these were nonconsensual atrocities, & we decry Neo-Puritan GQP efforts to bring them back (i.e., via corporal punishment in schools)! BUT consenting adults can enjoy Spanksgiving roleplay along with impact play, as Capt’n Max & I have a spanking good time exploring on this show. Later, I get stuffed from both ends, & I hope you do too!
We also spank 3 Turkeys in the News: 1) We tried to stick a fork in it in 2020, but the Trump Turkey is still squawking—& running—in 2024. Merrick, please put this gobbler in a cage! 2) Another juicy—& leaky—Turkey in the News is neo-Puritan Supreme Court Injustice Sam Alito (A-leak-o?); thanks to whistleblower Rev. Robert Schenck, we now have MORE proof that Alito leaked his own decisions—including Hobby Lobby & Dobbs—to Rightwing activists, Alito (A-leak-o?) leaks are now staining what’s left of the Court’s reputation with curdling Christofascist gravy. 3) Then there’s that Turkey of a Billionaire Elona Musky, aka Space Karen, aka Twitter-destroyer Elon Musk, currently setting our beloved Tweety-Bird ablaze like one of his defective Teslas bursting into the Flames of Hell.
Back to Thanksgiving, which can be a delicious reunion with those we love, but also tough to digest, stressful, hypocritical & downright nauseating, where we have to repress our real feelings for fear of triggering Uncle MAGAt’s Loser trauma which might trigger his finger on that AR-15 that he has a Second Amendment Right to bring to dinner. Well, we can always just stay home and choke our chickens instead of swallowing their turkey and taking their crap. Spank the Monkey! See why I give spanks… as well as thanks? Spanksgiving puts Thanksgiving into perspective. Bottoms up! Turn the whole plutocratic, ecocidal oligarchy upside down & spank its naughty behind. Too bad the NRA doesn’t profit from spanking paddle sales. Feast or fap, stuffed, spanked or spent, have a good one (& follow the Bonobo Way)!

Friday Nov 18, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
Internationally renowned sex therapist and Sexologist-of-the-Year Dr. Susan Block talks with “Kinky Newlyweds” Irene and Evan about how to balance lust with trust, power play, marriage, BDSM, bisexuality, threesomes, Tantra, exhibitionism, boundaries and privacy.

This is NOT a call with actual therapy clients; those are absolutely private and confidential. This is a caller on Dr. Block's Saturday night live show. For more information, call us at 626.461.5950.

F.D.R. (F*ck Da Rich): @DrSuzy VOTER Boner!
Tuesday Nov 15, 2022
Tuesday Nov 15, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
We're popping our political corks on the Love Train as the 2022 midterm tallies flow in, our election erections wet with waves of blue, love, laughter, liquor, socialist hope, sexual fantasies and erotic compassion for our so-called “enemies.” Yes indeed, we’ve got Voter Boners! Being a She/Her, I have a Voter Ladyboner (a Lady Voter-Boner?). As a sexologist, I’m mindful of the twisted effects of humiliation—even in metaphor—but I must say, the MAGAts got cuckolded—and not in the fun, consensual way. So we celebrate the Dems winning the Senate (yes, they’re also corrupted by pro-war corporate oligarch donors, but the fascist thugs of Coup Anon are worse), Trumpty Dumpty falls off his wall (again), Gangster Sheriff Villaneuva loses his badge & much more (though watch out for billionaire Elona Musky's buddy Peter Thiel’s megalomaniacal “investments” in politics). Joining our Blue Wave Block Party with a splash is “Most Bonobo Couple,” DaLove & Belive, naked and singing, plus a vivacious Russian/Ukrainian model named Julia—her traumatic tales reminding me of one thing none of the candidates much discussed: the War in Ukraine! Speaking of war, NOW is the time to make peace; it’s The Bonobo Way. Make Kink Not War! We also talk with Chase, a self-described “Christian” calling in from the bloodred swamps of Mississippi, who voted straight scarlet and goes to Church… but still wants to party with us. Well, wouldn’t you?

It’s almost Capt’n Max’s birthday, so we celebrate my beloved prime-mate, partner and husband of over 30 years, Prince Maximillian R. Leblovic di #Lobkowicz di #Filangieri, life-long sex revolutionary, pioneer in First Amendment freedoms and reader-written publishing—which evolved into what we now call “social media—a great designer and a really great kisser. Va-va-va-voom! Capt’n Max is my “V” without the violence, as we “remember, remember the 5th of November” from “V for Vendetta,” that classic, cinematic celebration of masked revolution.
It's also the 8th anniversary of The Bonobo Way (with over 50 five-star Amazon reviews), more evolution than revolution, as well as conflict resolution via peace through pleasure, female empowerment, male well-being, sharing, caring and a Bonobo Sutra of erotic activities. Eight years ago, I wrote #TheBonoboWay and gave it to Max for his birthday. Now, our latest Bonobo Way offering is Make Kink Not War: Be Bonobo at DomCon 2022, with “Peace, Love & Bonobos” at Yale coming soon!
It's also our first FDR of Naughty November, 2022, and third live Callin show, as the birthday festivities turn into a Block Party exploding into freewheeling, far-reaching, deep-diving, sexy, lefty, bonobo-evolutionary, media-therapeutic talk radio. Joining us live are Daniele Watts, aka DaLove—and it’s her birthday too!—and Chef Belive with many erotic and traumatic confessions, revelations and adventures to share in the crisp, not-so-clean, Naughty November air. We also take Callin calls from Dale and Schnarf about kink, love, fantasy, so-called "hypersexuality" and “sex addiction,” eargasms, toegasms, desire, release, struggle and the perennial allure of “Strangers in the Night.”
And it's Native American History Month, coming up on Spanksgiving, coming up on the last Saturday before one of the craziest most polarizing Election Days in the history of the USA, meaning it’s lesser-of-two-evils time, meaning get out and vote for the damn Dems! If it’s Wednesday, it’s too late. Just stay home and trip out. But if it’s Tuesday get your ass up. Play ball. Don’t just play with your balls. We don’t have a perfect democracy, we have an oligarchy, and we have war. It’s awful, but it could be worse. Much worse.
We also mourn Twitter, now being ruined by Elon Musk quicker than tRump ruined our country. This whole "Elona Musky" Twitter horror show is a great example of why we need a wealth tax. In the meantime, we slip, slide, fumble, fuck, fight, dance, laugh, cry and trip along to our dystopian destinies, hopefully mitigated by the Bonobo Way.
So... Happiest of Birthdays to the Very BEST of Husbands, my big bonobo, my little Prince, Capt’n Max. As deep is our trust, so wide is our lust, you’re my best friend forever, but you’ll always be my hot sexy Stranger in the Night.

F.D.R. (F*ck Da Rich): @DrSuzy Halloween Fantasies & Very Scary Realities
Tuesday Nov 01, 2022
Tuesday Nov 01, 2022
Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality
All aboard FDR's Second Coming on Callin - Vergin’-No-More! Though we’re vergin’ on #Halloween, opening with My Samhain Ode to Sexy Witches, B*tches, Belladonnas & Scary Sex (consenting adults only please!), a Halloween Fever Dream that takes you Over the Moon on My Magic Dildonic Vibrating Broom (great for roleplay, pegging, spanking & good vibrations)… But frightful goblins lurk all around us: Melting Himalayas releasing ancient viruses; upcoming elections portending fascism & violence; people shooting, trampling & beating each other with hammers; the planet heating up, but it could all instantly cool down to nuclear winter, as we’re vergin’ on Armageddon, H-bombs poised for mutual annihilation on both sides of the madness. Now more than ever, we need to Make Kink Not War. Can we “be bonobo” before it’s too late?
Not yet fried alive, we wave farewell to Jerry Lee Lewis (Max was a Jerry Lee tribute artist) whose “Great Balls of Fire” is soaring up to rock & roll heaven or dropping down to honkytonk hell. Another scary reality is Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover. Twitter is not a truck. If someone doesn’t take the wheel, Elon is going to drive his new Twitter truck into a tree. Meanwhile, Musk’s buddy Kanye learned how “going Death/Def Con 3 on Jewish people” translates to losing more than half a billion dollars in a day. #GoBonobos for the Semitic convergence of Old Hollywood & new track shoes. Free Palestine! AND for a comic erotic trick-or-treat, the Pope confesses HIS Halloween fantasies of “#nuns (watching) porn”… Another scary reality: black-robed ghouls on the Supreme Court’s Catholic supermajority stoning American women’s rights to death. Let’s impeach 6 out of 9, starting with Supreme Injustice Clarence Thomas whose wife, Ginni Thomas, is one of leaders of the (still ongoing) Coup Anon Insurrection - & let’s take heart in Iran’s ongoing “Women, Life, Freedom” rebellion against the Ayatollahs, the Persian version of our Supreme Injustices. Meanwhile, racism & greed from our caught-on-tape LA City Council intersect with Sheriff Villaneuva’s murderous deputy gangs. Our Kangaroo Court Arcadia City Council may be smaller, but it’s no better.
We also take a couple of Callin calls from Joe who really resonates with our sex-positive, no-Bernays, no bull message, & Wally who jokes about the great & powerful, one-eyed Halloween Monster threatening to bust through his zipper. Trick or treat!
