Memory Lane - Ria
17/07/2016 Duration: 50minOne day in 1990, Ria was carried out of her middle school in a stretcher. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital. Her classmates gawked as she was taken out, but they didn't laugh. Usually, they did. Ria was born male, but enjoyed a very liberal, gender-neutral childhood. The pivotal moment of emergency, coming when she was 11, served as her realization that things would never again be the same. She had to begin hiding from the outside world. Listen to Ria describe her long journey of gender freedom, one which she has only recently been able to enjoy fully. Ria is a woman a long-time in the making. Catch her in her full bloom as she describes her story, & invites you into her 'journey train'

Safiya On Homosexuality In The Abrahamic Faiths 3
19/06/2016 Duration: 47minSafiya & I conclude our series on the Abrahamic faiths & their relationship to homosexuality with this- an exploration of homosexuality within the Islamic tradition. Drawing from Judaic & Christian foundations, but also from disparate other sources, Islam has developed a distinct relationship with transgenderism & sexual orientations. Safiya explains why the population of Pakistan is upwards of 10% what we would called 'transgender' in the west & also reveals the nuanced understanding of gender re-assignment in Iran; why the western perspective is inadequate.

Saffiyya On Pre-Modern Gender
27/09/2015 Duration: 34minSaffiyya comes to enlighten us once again on a new topic. Veering from our study of homosexuality & the Abrahamic religions briefly, she speaks about gender in the ancient world, the myth of the 'traditional family,' and why these ideas of gender and marriage narrowed for Jews & Christians. Our idea of men & women in the ancient world are not as clear cut as one would think, Saffiyya says. She talks specifically about Torah injunctions against cross-dressing, and also discussing the phenomenon of the 'eunuch' a gender which, for the most part, we do not have today Join us!

Saffiyya On Homosexuality & The Abrahamic Faiths 2
05/09/2015 Duration: 36minSaffiyya joins me yet again, and instructs on the latest installment of her new series! Continuing the story of Homosexuality and the Abrahamic faiths, she delves into early Christian canonical, and non-canonical texts. She explains why Martin Luther left out the book of Maccabees, while it was retained the Catholic Bible. How did the Maccabees, pre-modern Jewish fundamentalist zealots, become symbols of anti-homosexuality while never writing a single word on it? Also, what do the Romans have to do with our current views of masculinity & homosexuality? Saffiyya explains it all! The history of homosexuality in religion continues!

Memory Lane -- Ambrosia
19/08/2015 Duration: 20minOn Memory Lane today: Band groupie brings us the tale of an Evil Klown....Who but Ambrosia Flattery? My beautiful & hilarious friend tells a sick & twisted tale of how a friendship goes bad. And goes bad. Again & again, Ambrosia takes her abusive cousin back into her life. While she sees the prospects of real change as dim, she recounts her past experiences with this cousin. This girl has inflicted multiple damages upon Ambrosia in their 5-year best friendship, including emotional manipulation, reducing her to tears....& even ordering a chainsaw-wielding clown to go after her! Think you could still befriend this person after these events? Hopefully not, but somehow Ambrosia still soldiers on, attempting to keep her cousin in her life although she admits that "she wouldn't be friends with her" if she wasn't family. Listen how this young girl deals with a persistent problem of family in this Memory Lane....& how she escaped that Evil Clown!

The Word: U.S. Elites Want War With Iran
27/07/2015 Duration: 45minPressTV's Caleb Maupin joins me on The Word to discuss the renewed push for violent conflict between the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran. The jump-off point for our discussion is a segment on the FOX Business show "After The Bell," where several ideological statements were made regarding the Islamic Republic. One of the guests on the segment was from the influential Neo-Conservative thinktank The Institute For The Study Of War. Of course, as Mr. Maupin points out, the ISW is just "one of many," and there is a whole cottage industry devoted to this type of activity, serving to create the justification for war. Why does the American elite want war with Iran? And why now? Does it have anything to do with recent diplomatic maneuvers between the 2 countries? Mr. Maupin shares his insight on these topics, as well as others in this illuminating discussion.

Saffiya Reveals Hell Is A Place On Earth
27/07/2015 Duration: 24minSaffiya joins me to discuss a unique topic in the history of Abrahamic exegesis today -- The concept of 'hell'. Contrary to what contemporary Fundamentalist Evangelical Protestants and other Christians may believe today, what we think of as 'hell' is not a Christian concept at all. In truth, it appears to derive from the East, not the holy lands of Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. We trace the importation of the 'hell' concept from Zoroastrianism, but also discuss the fact that 'hell' is a real, visible place on earth....and it looks nothing like what you have been told.

The Word: Out Of Control Parents
28/06/2015 Duration: 55minSome parents just don't know how to behave. Whether it is one of the various forms of abuse, or just being plain hard to get along with, scores of parents behave in inappropriate ways. This conduct can irrevocably harm kids & adult children. On The Word, we listen to Eliora & Dahlia share their stories of out of control parents. Eliora's dad is a drunk, Dahlia's was pretty much never there. Then, Saffiya stops by to say all that she has to about her parents and how they affected her. Finally, I read quotes from some of my favourite texts that address this very issue, including Alice Miller & classic "The Primal Scream" by Arthur Janov. Join Us!

Memory Lane -- Saffiya's Story Vol. 1
14/06/2015 Duration: 33minSaffiya comes to Memory Lane to share the first two parts of her memoirs. In these riveting two stories, Saffiya details some of the only memories she has of childhood. "I tried to be linear," she says. But life issues in memoir often become so entangled as to be indistinguishable from one another -- The abuse, her psychopathic brother, being kicked out, almost being 'married off' by her parents at 4, communicating with spirits, eventually being kicked out all make an appearance here. and the extra-sensory abilities of Asexual individuals all make an appearance. These are the opening volleys in Saffiya's struggle to find her truth. In the next segments, to be titled "Child Rearing," she will explore how she was essentially left by her cultist, mentally-ill parents to raise her psychopathic brother whom, at one point, she had almost killed in a murder-suicide Saffiya's is a truly extraordinary life, and she speaks from a place of security and strength. It took her years to get where she is today, and reveal

Memory Lane -- Dahlia
14/06/2015 Duration: 41minISS (Internet Sex Star) Dahlia is back! And this time she enters the Memory Lane confessional to talk about the moment her poly relationship went sour, along with her heart. Dahlia recalls this moment, and also reveals to me the nature of her doomed relationship. The Tramp of Tumblr lets it all hang out -- emotional vulnerabilities and all. In addition to talking about her experience in polyamory, she opens up about her parents, a subject that she is used to talking about. Dahlia's father abandoned her, and her possibly-mentally ill mother engaged in the opposite behaviour. Dahlia sums up what she has learned, and explains why she would 'do it the same way' again if she had the chance, despite the tumult of her relationship.

Memory Lane -- Rajée
02/05/2015 Duration: 42minI have interviewed the infamous 'cement woman' & now-Reality star Rajée in the past, but now she is on Memory Lane to share one of her intimate memories. She recalls a touching scene of bullying, kindness, & then thankfulness that ensued when she was harassed by teenage boys and then rescued by an older, sympathizer. She talks about the impact of this man's words & deeds on her life. Using that memory as a jump-off, we forward the conversation into the related topics of intolerance, discrimination against difference, gender roles, and how abuse can be an expression of distorted attraction. Rajée brings a resplendent joy to everything she does, and this is evident here. Listen to her story, & share in her appreciation of this beautiful man and people like him
