From being baptized in the holy water of a squirting orgasm to winning a tough presidential election, from celebrating Max’s 69th birthday to 69ing on a bed of nails, we explore the meaning and experience of ecstasy—in sex, love, politics, nature, drugs, exhibitionism, art, radio and the rest of life, as well as death—both the “little death” and the Big One.

Length: 126:40 minutes Date: 11/10/2012 From being baptized in the holy water of a squirting orgasm to winning a tough presidential election, from celebrating Max’s 69th birthday to 69ing on a bed of nails, we explore the meaning and experience of ecstasy—in sex, love, politics, nature, drugs, exhibitionism, art, radio and the rest of life, as well as death—both the “little death” and the Big One. Ecstasy—that ineffable “out of control” feeling—is especially irresistible to control freaks, such as a certain former director of the CIA. We talk about how General David Petraeus’ star-crossed romance with his attractive “All In” biographer Paula Broadwell is being gobbled up like a juicy steak by our erotic ecstasy-starved nation, even though hardly anybody really cares whether the guy keeps his marital vows of genital monogamy. More to the point, as my Counterpunch publisher Jeffrey St. Clair noted as soon as Petraeus apologized, “Killing babies and wedding parties didn’t bother his conscience in the least…” And here he is prostrating himself over a consensual affair (more coming soon). Also in the Bad News Department: We talk about LA’s newly passed “Nanny State” Measure B, how it’s unconstitutional and impossible to enforce, but still will be a horrible pain in the porn industry’s shaved asshole, not to mention a terrible loss in revenue for LA County. But most of this show ecstatically rings in the Good News of my beloved hubby Capt’n Prince Max’s 69th royal birthday, surrounded by 69ing couples, ecstatic to be alive and rather well, together in the midst of the communal ecstasy of our BonoboVille. Many have tried to take this wonderful man down, from police in three different states to members of his own family (one of whom is even in Womb Room during this show!) to the Big C itself. But Prince Max has prevailed, published and prospered. And, as the Big O(bama) just promised when we extended our presidential love affair four more years, “The best is yet to come.” And cum!
