by Dr. Susan Block. FDR held Fireside Chats. I hold Bedside Chats. An upper crust “Democratic Socialist” of sorts, Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882 – 1945) was my Mom’s (and Bernie Sanders’) favorite U.S. President. As the Golden Age of Radio began, FDR’s Fireside Chats warmed the hearts of the American people during cold and difficult times, the Great Depression and World War II. My Bedside Chats warm you up—in a different way—as we move through the Coronapocalypse.

by Dr. Susan Block. It’s still LGBTQ Pride Month, and I am a walking, talking, licking, sucking rainbow of love. Shout-out to the amazing Texas Geyser of Desire, bisexual squirting MILF Queen Deauxma, for giving me my slinky gay pride scarf. However, like many, I have noticed that Pride has gone corporate, and I have mixed feelings about that.

by Dr. Susan Block As millions of temples, synagogues and households around the world gather around flickering menorahs on the seventh night of the Jewish Festival of Lights, so do we here on DrSuzy.Tv, broadcasting live from the Womb Room sanctuary of the Little Love-Synagogue of the Bonobo Way. However, we don’t just light the candles; irreverent boho-bonobos that we are, we also drip the melting candlewax on the beautiful buns and bared breasts of some of our sexy guests.

by Dr. Susan Block We’re having a heat wave, which sounds sexy but it’s kind of crazy. Is it normal? Is it the new normal? Fire tornados are whirling out of massive infernos, one the size of the city of LA. Scientists call it “climate change.” But our stabile genius Presidunce—his tiny orange hand spotted emerging from the Holy Fire by the artist Jeffrey Vallance — would sooner say “shithole” or “grab ‘em by the pussy” than those two dirty words: Climate change.

by Dr. Susan Block It’s our last live DrSuzy.Tv broadcast of 2017, a year that was awesome and awful, terrific and terrible—or Trumpible, if you will, since much of the terror was caused by the Trumpus. Whether you loved or hated it, this year is in the rear (for my full year-in-review and unadulterated thoughts on the unbonobo presidunce and erotic resistance, see #GoBonobos in 2018, also in Counterpunch). Thus, with a fond farewell to this year’s 45 sensational shows, a Merry New Year and a very Happy Nude Rear to all, we present the 2017 SUZY awards.

by Dr. Susan Block. Still *in recovery* from our scintillating New Year’s Eve bacchanal, we gather together in the Womb Room on our first broadcast of 2017, reflecting upon our 44 great shows of 2016, as we ceremoniously bestow The SUZY Awards for the fifth consecutive year. Honoring excellence in broadcast artistry and exhibitionism, the DrSusanBlock.Tv Awards, a.k.a., “The SUZYS,” recognize erotic performance, sexual intelligence and Weapons of Mass Seduction, celebrating The Bonobo Way of ‘peace through pleasure’ in all kinds of weather and paying tribute, with love, humor and deep respect, to those who work and play in the fields of peace and sexuality.

by Dr. Susan Block As the clothes come off in Bonoboville, the Confederate flag comes down in South Carolina, and the sweet sounds of the winsome Luzers greet the Bonobo Summer of Love. Toe-tapping Norwegian pop rock with a Hasidic twang, big fake boobs and pierced labia, Cold Cock and Cosby-itis… this show is eclectic with a capital Eeeee! It’s the kind of live broadcast that brings people together from all walks of life, setting The Dr. Susan Block Show apart from all the other shows and making it kind of uncategorizable. On the other hand, it’s just a 21st century spin on old-time Commedia: live music, burlesque and a bit of behind-the-scenes sturm und drang with a bonoboësque twang.  

by Dr. Susan Block Labor Day becomes “Labia Day” on DrSuzy.Tv, broadcasting live from Bonoboville on the first Saturday night of September. Our first Labia Day, a.k.a., #LabiaDay, celebration features the delightful labia-lapping Dayton Rains showing off her own world-famous labia in multiple positions and configurations, expertly licking my lucky labia and, in that great U.S. presidential intern tradition, smoking a cigar through her labia, as well as instigating a small but sassy Labia Day Movement right here in the Womb Room studio—power to the pornstars! Back to Labor Day (for just a moment), which I’ve always found to be a bittersweet occasion. Like any public holiday, it’s as good an excuse as any to break out the booze and BBQs, but tragically, it also marks the end of summer vacation, with “labor,” a.k.a., school, work and winter, looming ominously ahead. Moreover, the whole “labor” theme never seems to be a genuine celebration of the people, the real workers, or the 99%. It’s more of a paltry pacifier from the 1%–the owners, Mafioso union bosses, greedy oligarchs and CEOs—one measly Monday where we theoretically don’t have to labor for The Man, but are expected to consume high-calorie processed foods from company stores like Walmart and Target, watch military-style parades and endure boring, hypocritical speeches.

by Dr. Susan Block “Poly on Wry” is a tasty triple-decker sandwich of polyamorous possibilities, blended households, zesty triads, alphabetized polycules (poly/molecules), designer relationships (with a hat tip to Ken Haslam), open marriages, bonoboësque friends-with-benefits, bachelors-with-girlfriends, girlfriends-with-dating-contests, Dominant/submissive partnerships, kinky alliances, spicy swing parties and other non-conventional sexual arrangements.

by Dr. Susan Block Freedom is the greatest aphrodisiac, but restraint is a close second. It’s one of the many ironies of sex that some of the freest people get off on giving up their freedom—consensually, of course. They may be turned on by being “forced” to experience things that they really want but don’t feel free to receive unless they’re restrained. They may be aroused by struggling against the restraints or surrendering as they enter “sub space.” This is one of the bedrock principles of BDSM. Another principle is theater. BDSM (Bondage & Discipline, Dominance & Submission, Sado-Masochism) is dramatic, and I don’t mean Fifty Shades of Holy Crap drama; I mean the living theater of intimate power exchange, the potent poetry of mixing pleasure with pain as you play—with an audience. This show’s guests of honor are masters of BDSM play. So it’s natural that they’re now creating “plays,” i.e., theatrical entertainments spotlighting the drama of BDSM, engaging in themes of passion (the latin passio means “to suffer”), intimacy, discovery, healing, consensuality and control.

On the other hand, it’s just a 21st century spin on old-time Commedia: live music, burlesque and a bit of behind-the-scenes sturm und drang with a bonoboësque twang. Our very special musical guests are The Luzers in their virgin appearance in Bonoboville and, indeed, all of America. Named for the band’s lead singer who also happens to be a recurring guest on DrSuzy.Tv, Mr. Luzer Twersky, the Luzers are the brainchild of the merry, mutton-chopped, musical Mad Hatter of Bergen, Norway, Hans Petter Gundersen, a.k.a. “H.P.” In addition to being LA’s most up-and-coming ex-Hasidic Jew, winner of two “Best Actor” awards for his performance in Félix & Meira and a recurring player on Amazon’s hit series Transparent, Luzer is also the unofficial Bonoboville chauffeur which is why parts of this show feel like a performance at a big family dinner, if your family gathers around for Cold Cock and a striptease. Listen to the archive to hear the romantic story of Luzer and Hans’ meeting at the Laurel Canyon Country Store.

Slut-Shaming Confessions, Great Music, Double BJ, Bondage, Spankings & Baptism in Holy Water For a mainstream star, Miley Cyrus is pretty wild, outraging elders Sinead and Cher (to name just a few) who tried—and utterly failed—to slut-shame the hyper-sexy young pop sensation… and that was before “Free the Nipple.” But Miley’s porn double, Miley May, is 1000 times wilder as a hardcore “Wrecking Baller,” and her DrSuzy.Tv debut is at least as eye-popping as the original Miley’s VMA performance. But instead of just twerking with bears, Miley May positions herself into the middle of an oral sex orgy with a horny, happily humping tribe of bonoboësque humans, plus a few fine sex toys to keep things buzzing.
