Death: everyone does it. Sex: it sells. But can we sell you on the concept of sexy death? Have a drink with us and Dick, podcast host and sex/kink educator, as we talk about death fetishism and his personal history with it. We talk about the allure of finality, safety concerns, and misconceptions about this too taboo subject. Books and studies referenced in this episode were: Lisa Downing's "On The Limits of Sexual Ethics" John Money's* work on erotophonophilia & autassassinophilia and Caitlin Doughty's work in the Death Positive movement Check out Dick's other work hosting Off The Cuffs (@OCPKink) and Being There (@BeingTherePod), and reach out to him on twitter or via email!

Movie spoilers ahead! This week we have a drink with Bill and delve into the world of film. The occult and religion have a big role in cinema, so we narrowed our discussion to two movies that explore Santeria to... differing effects: "I Walked with a Zombie" (1943), and "Angel Heart" (1987). Join us for a drink as we chat about the actual craft of film making, the history of the medium, and give some background insight to what makes a movie spooky. We also touch on the important subject of racism and xenophobia in movies that use other cultures for shock value, the importance of doing your research, and such taboo subjects as Mickey Rourke's ass. Check out Bill's work in I Don't Get It and American Caesar. And be sure to reach out to him on Twitter! Movies referenced in this show include "The Haunted Castle" (1896), and E. Elias Merhige's "The Begotten" (1990). Make sure that you check out the other podcasts on the Podcast Jukebox Network which we are proud to be a part of!

Demons and monsters have been a part of the human psyche for as long as storytelling has existed, but one of the most interesting modern iterations of monsterkind is how they've become part of the games we play, even sympathetic characters we want to be! That's right. This week we're taking a look at Dungeons and Dragons, and comparing the monster lore in the game to two influential pieces of hellish literature, Dante's Inferno and The Lesser Key of Solomon. Professional D&D "homebrewer" Ned Turner sits down for a drink with us as we delve into the depths of devilry and delierium! Click here for a link to Ned's work in game-making, and here to see the character sheet for the monster we created in the episode.

Ram Dass is synonymous with the Eastern philosophy movement that swept America and Western Europe in the 60s and 70s, but how many have acutally read his books? Would you think they'd be too lofty and intimidating, as befitting a learned and respected guru? Or would you think they would be rambling and nonsensical, like the memoirs of any celebrity of the drug-highs of the 60s? Would you be suprised to find out that they are neither: that they are starkly simple, down-to-earth musings of an unassuming middle class man? Listen in for a review packed with quotes and a rant breaking down why you shouldn't take being a philosophy major too seriously!

This week we delve into the Vatican, and get a run down on what the pope is supposed to do, and talk about three popes who failed miserably at that. There's a lot of slander, bribery, and excommunication ahead. From literal f*ckery that rivals any modern reality show, to trials more inane than anything Pheonix Wright has ever had to deal with, papal history is a weird place. Come join us to find out just why #FormosusDidNothingWrong and why Hitler's Pope doesn't deserve the bad reputation history handed him. follow these links for a close up on the parts of the Sistine Chapel where Michaelangelo put Pope Julius II and Biagio de Cesena on blast. And, if you wanted to see an illustration of the Cadaver Synod, here's a fantastic painting on the subject.
