1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: It was remember that. I, Oh, yeah, who doesn't. I 2 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: guess maybe people don't. Well, first off, I remember the 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 1: movie as I do not remember the movie Purple People 4 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: Leader movie obviously based on the song real cheesy. Um. 5 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: I don't remember very well. But it was some fifties 6 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: beach town, I think, and this one alien showed up 7 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: and he had a one eye, one horn, and he 8 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: was purple, and he like started a whole dance craze 9 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: in the town. I think I don't remember it very well. Look, 10 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: it's been many years. I have forgotten so many things 11 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: since I've ever seen this movie. It's amazing that I 12 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: remember it exists. But I remember the image of that 13 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: Purple People Leader. To me, the song is related to 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 1: itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow pikini. So I'm like, there 15 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: must have been a tape. There was cassette tape of 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: like kids tunes or something. Forget it was that. It 17 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: was tee boca pikini. It was on top of spaghetti. 18 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: It was time me kangaroo down. Oh, I don't know 19 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: that one, or I didn't make attention to the B sides. Possible, Yeah, 20 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: all those old kids comedy songs, for sure. Purple people 21 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: leader was on that, Well, here we are with some 22 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: purple people finally, and the only people getting eaten are 23 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,919 Speaker 1: they're eating each other. They're eating each other. So people 24 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: they're are they're eating purple people, I guess, and they're 25 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: purple people eaters, which brings me to say, this episode 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: not about cannibals. No, it's about sex and a lot 27 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: of it. So heads up, hand down. But I'm excited 28 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: to get to this one. This story is very very ridiculous, 29 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: very wild. Yeah, kind of in line with our Oneida 30 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: episode about people trying to figure out how to the 31 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: best sex and the best life that they can possibly 32 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: have together somehow with a lot of rules. Isn't that 33 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: what we're all kind trying to do? It's very true, 34 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: and so you can see why so many people through 35 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: history have applied themselves very passionately to this this question. Yeah, 36 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: this pursuit of perfection. This topic was suggested by Sean 37 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: on Twitter. Thank you, Sean, this was a great suggestion. 38 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: It was nineteen sixty six and Victor Baranco was lost. 39 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: He was a self made millionaire. He had a wife, 40 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: he was crazy about it, had kids, everything he was 41 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: supposed to want, but he still felt empty, and one 42 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: day he decided to deliberately examine his life, thinking, if 43 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: there are questions, then there are answers logical. If I 44 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: think about it long enough, I'll solve this problem. And 45 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: in a flash he realized everything was perfect. He was perfect, 46 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 1: the universe was perfect, and he was responsible for everything 47 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: that happened to him. That flash of perfection, as Victor 48 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: called it, became the center of his More philosophy, and 49 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: in night, he and his wife Susie established the More 50 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: House Commune and Lifestyle in Lafayette, California, teaching courses on sensuality, orgasm, 51 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: and more. So let's take a deeper look at the 52 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 1: longest running, most successful free love Commune, still an operation today, 53 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: as deep as you want it, baby, Oh no, let's go. 54 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: Hey their French come listen. Well, Eli and Diana got 55 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: some stories to tell. There's no matchmaking a romantic tips, 56 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: It's just about ridiculous relationships. A lover might be any 57 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: type of person at all, and abstract consent a concrete wall. 58 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: But if there's a story, were the Second Glance Show, 59 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: Ridiculous Rolevance the production of I Heart Radio. So Victor 60 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: was born to a black father and a Jewish mother 61 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: in Oakland, California. Yeah, and by the time he was 62 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: a teenager, he's a pretty big hustler type of guy. 63 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: In a n Rolling Stone article called Sergeant Bill co 64 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: Meets the New Culture by Robin Green, he talks about 65 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: how he met Susie, his wife, when he was twenty four. 66 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: She was only eighteen. She was the daughter of a 67 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: wealthy doctor, and her dad did not approve of Victor. Now, 68 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: Victor had a lot of money, but he got it 69 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: in shady ways. For example, he created a bunch of 70 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: fake companies, put them in his seven year old son's name, 71 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: and then bankrupted there. His son was liable for those bankruptcies, 72 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: but as Victor said, quote, hey, in seven years, he'll 73 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: only be fourteen, So I guess no harm, no foul 74 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: to his credit order whatever. He also bragged about pushing 75 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: phony watches and jewelry on people, quote like I would 76 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: pretend to be a truck driver with an overload of goods. 77 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: Or I had an engagement ring said, and my girl 78 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: decided to marry somebody else, and I'd be crying the 79 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: blues and a bar After the time when the jewelry 80 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: stores were closed of course. Alright, alright, alright, so he's trying. 81 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: And he also had a jewelry store himself where they 82 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: would sell fake engagement rings to sailors. He said, quote, 83 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: it was such an incredible hustle. We guarantee the thing 84 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: was genuine. But what it was was a chip, a 85 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: ten point chip in a sparkle setting, and it looked big. 86 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: It was worth maybe eight dollars. I made a lot 87 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: of money, but Susie's father was right. I was a bum, 88 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: So I decided to go straight. Poor sailors. Haven't they 89 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: been through enough? Okay? Well, and what's even sadders? He 90 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: would even be like, some of these sailors had never 91 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: even seen the ocean before they became sailors. So they 92 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: were really small town people and they just had no idea. 93 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: You know, He's like, I see the you know, the 94 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: green on you kind of So Victor and Susie married 95 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: in the year nineteen fifty nine, and Victor started managing 96 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: a drive in movie theater. Big business for sure, but 97 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: he wasn't making enough money, so he used some mafia 98 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: connections to become a bookie, and he would fly people 99 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: out to Vegas to gamble at some point. He also 100 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: took part in a c I A sponsored LSD experiment 101 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: legit MK ultraship. I guess I'm guessing he's one of 102 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: the volunteers and not some of the people that were 103 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: forced to take LSD. Hey man, free doses. I'm ready, 104 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,679 Speaker 1: sign me up, let's document this. Well, what's so funny 105 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: about those experiments is that they were trying. You know, 106 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: the government's like, we don't want people to have LSD. 107 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: But because they did these experiments, all these guys would 108 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: go volunteer and of course get a bunch of LSD 109 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: and then pass it around their community. So the government, 110 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: in trying to keep it from people, then gave it 111 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: to the people. Come on, guys, you really really biff 112 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: that one. Well. Then Victor decided to become a washing 113 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: machine salesman, but he got angry at his manager for 114 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: taking too big of a commission, and Victor laughs in 115 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: an interview about shaking that manager so hard that he 116 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: wet his pants. Shake of a violent streak. Perhaps he's like, 117 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: I'll shake you harder than the washing machine. But finally 118 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: Victor hit on his treasure trove real estate. He would 119 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: buy a cheap rundown house and he would live in 120 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: it while he fixed it up and then try and 121 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: sell it for a profit. It's very I don't even 122 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: know if it's a scheme, right, I mean, you're just 123 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: like the scheme is just a plan. It doesn't have 124 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: fair enough. It's got such a negative connotation. Somebody said, hey, 125 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm running the scheme, I'd say, oh, no, you're right. 126 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: But one of the major projects of the early nineteen 127 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: sixties for Victor and Susie was trying to improve their 128 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: sex life because Susie was quote frigid according to one 129 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: more House convert Marco Bennetto. So they went to several 130 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: doctors and psychiatrists. They also went to like free love 131 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: type places to try and figure this out, figure out 132 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: her frigidity, which we can only assume that's the only 133 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: word we got, but we can just assume that they 134 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: probably mean she wasn't sexually act like passionate. It wasn't 135 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: something that was Yeah, maybe she had like a low 136 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: libido or trouble orgasm e. It wasn't very interested, you know, 137 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: had a like a mental block, right right, But it 138 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: seems like she was maybe interested in improving that because 139 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: they went to all these places, including the Sexual Freedom 140 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: League in Berkeley, California in the early sixties, and of 141 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: course the hippie mecca of hate, Ashbury. They all ended 142 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: up there at least one. I think it's where's that 143 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:58,119 Speaker 1: Nian God hate Ashbury. They hate and hate Ashbury, hate Ashbury. 144 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: Maybe it was like Greenland and Iceland love Ashbury. Yeah, hate, 145 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: so the only hateful people. That's not working. Man, Let's 146 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: hang on, let's rethink this scheme. I think we smoked 147 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: too much weed about that when by nineteen sixty six 148 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: Victor felt like he had tried everything but was still 149 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: missing something. I tried everything. I got LSD from the government, 150 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: I flipped the house, I got involved with the mafia. 151 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: The world is cold to me now. But on the 152 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: Lafayette Morehouse website, he's quoted as saying, quote, I went 153 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: through all the schemes, you know, all the systems. I 154 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: played with Zen Buddhism. I did psychology to the hilt, 155 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: I did religion. I did making money, I did playing football, 156 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: and I did being a social butterfly. I did all 157 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: the things that are supposed to get you right. And 158 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: after doing them all and having what society said should 159 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: make you happy, which was like a good reputation in 160 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: the business I was in making money, having a family 161 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: that was socially acceptable in every aspect of what socially 162 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: acceptable is. I didn't find it that much fun. I 163 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: don't like live in in the system, man. Yeah, Man, 164 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: I'd like to opt out, right, which fair enough, honestly, 165 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: many of us liked opt out of this system. So 166 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: one day, Susie's out of town for the weekend and 167 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: he says that he laid himself down on the living 168 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: room rug to try to figure this whole thing out. 169 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: And they never mentioned this, but I'm pretty sure drugs 170 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: are involved. Look, if it's the sixties and you laid 171 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: down on a living room rug, you didn't do it sober. 172 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: You had some chemicals sometime at some point. Maybe not chemicals, man, 173 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: this ship is natural natural. Well, this LSD came straight 174 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: from the plant, man, the plant that the government runs. Um. 175 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: He figured, you know what, if I got a question, 176 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: then there must be an answer, right, And all I 177 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: have to do is think through it until I find 178 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: an answer that seems true. And then I keep testing 179 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: the answer and it keeps holding true. That's got to 180 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: be it, right. I like it but I'm challenging it 181 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: because I have questions to which there are no answers. 182 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: Now after well, you're not on LSD, that might fair. 183 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: Maybe try it on the next episode. I'll be on LSD. 184 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: Oh what a time. I'm very like I'm looking forward 185 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: to that now. After a while of laying on the 186 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: rug trip and balls, probably he found his answer, what 187 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: he called his flash to perfection, that he was perfect 188 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: and the world was perfect just as it was, but 189 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: they're also was always room for more. Marco Beneto explains 190 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: it as something of a precursor to the law of 191 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: attraction from The Secret If you're remembering that, the idea 192 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: was that we all can attract exactly what we want. 193 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: So just put out into the universe what you want 194 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: in this world and it will come to you, just 195 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: because of the law of attraction. And that's all you need. Okay, 196 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: when you make like a vision board and any day 197 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: now you'll get it, right, Yeah, I mean, well, I 198 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: we'll get too into it. But it's the very privileged 199 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: mindset to be. You know, there's there's a lot of 200 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: starving people in the world who might have a vision board, 201 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 1: and I ain't gonna help it's full of noodles and 202 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: there's no noodles. Yes, absolutely, so they're definitely yeah, not 203 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: my favorite law. There's there's some power to positive thinking, 204 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: but I think you have to have a base level 205 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: of some sort of privilege or you know, to be 206 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: in a setting where those things are afforded to you, 207 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: you know, right. Yeah. But more House is a little 208 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: more expansive in their definition because they don't think humans 209 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: do or even should, only attract good things. Um Victor 210 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: believed that quote, human beings want to experience the full 211 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 1: range of human emotions, and that includes bad things too. 212 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: All Right, we unconsciously attract good and bad experiences that 213 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: can contribute to our growth and development. If everything is 214 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: always good, how do you really grow? Right? How do 215 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: you know everything is good if nothing's bad? Right? Marco 216 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: Benetto wrote, quote, it's about taking on responsibility for the 217 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: results that you generate. I personally can't or won't believe 218 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: that these ideas are true in a universal way. Shit happens, 219 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: cancer cells find a home, racism and genocide exist, and 220 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: so on. But in the interpersonal realm, I think it 221 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: is true. I believe that all my relationships happened for 222 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: a reason, and maybe we're even engineered by spirit. If 223 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: this is superstition, so be it. I don't mind holding 224 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: superstitions that make me happier, more effective, and more loving. Okay, 225 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: Well that sort of addresses that a little bit. I 226 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: was gonna say. It's sort of what Marco is saying 227 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: is like, there are starving people and they could think 228 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: about food all day long. That doesn't going to make 229 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: the food appear. There's there's bigger things happening in this 230 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 1: world than just you and your personal little little things 231 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: that you want. But in your personal world you certainly 232 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: have more control than maybe you believe. Okay, So starting 233 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: with the idea that you're already perfect and that there's 234 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: room for improvement is the foundation of the Moorhouse philosophy. 235 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: I get on board with half that. I mean, I'm 236 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: already perfect, right, So now your reactions, your fears, your judgments, 237 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: all of those are perfect just as they are that, 238 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: which means you can relax. Man, you know, worry about 239 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: all that. Your fears part of the whole cycle. Man, 240 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: emphasis mine, Um, But you know what it's saying is 241 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: that if you're perfect, you're not defensive. You know, you're 242 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: more receptive to hearing what can be worked on, and 243 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: that opens you up to more possibilities because you're not 244 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: sitting in judgment of yourself. Right, And they say things like, 245 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: you've never made a mistake in your life because everything 246 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: you've done has made you you are and therefore and 247 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: you're perfect and therefore so everything you've done is fine 248 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: and good and you couldn't be better. Right. So with 249 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: this idea, Victor decided to create the more philosophy and 250 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: that's m O r E. And that philosophy is that 251 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: quote fun is the goal, love is the way. Now, 252 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: he wanted to prove that people could live in a 253 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: group setting without doing anything you don't want to do, right, 254 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: you could serve the world unselfishly and you could profit 255 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: from it, which is what they call quote responsible hedonism. 256 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: I know, I'm thinking a lot about Collette because she 257 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: was a hedonist, you know, and a lot of thought 258 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: of her circle. Where hedonists it's all about just pursuing 259 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: fun things and everything's great but in there, but they 260 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: also ignored a lot of things, whereas these guys are like, 261 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: you need to involve yourself a little more in the 262 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: world around. Can you help people you know. But here's 263 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: the thing. Victor himself, he just didn't have the look. 264 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: He kind of looked a little square man, you know, 265 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: so he couldn't be out there starting a hedonistic love commune. 266 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: I thought he was a narc total businessman looking due 267 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: short hair, oh my god, get it. But fortunately he 268 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: was friends with Bobby Kerr through the Sexual Freedom League. 269 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: Bobby was a long haired hippie kid who was going 270 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: to be perfect for bringing in recruits. According to that 271 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: Sergeant Bill co Rolling Stone article, Victor offered to give 272 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: Bobby anything he wanted if he would just come with 273 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: him to help him establish this commune. So Bobby, here's this. 274 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: He's like, all right, man, and I wanted ten dollars 275 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: sports car, and guess what he got it love attraction. Indeed, 276 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: Bobby told Rolling Stone quote, I didn't trust him at first. 277 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: He didn't think there was anything bad about controlling people. 278 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: And he told me the money was nothing but dirty 279 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: green paper and not a cause for bad and he 280 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: was enjoying himself. His idea was to con people into 281 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: enjoying themselves too. It made sense to me. I got hooked. 282 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: What's funny is that by the time he's saying that quote. 283 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: He um, he himself had become the square. He had 284 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: become the businessman of the group kind of, and he 285 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: was in charge of a lot of real estate transactions 286 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: and stuff. So he kind of became what he didn't 287 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: want to become. I suppose all those hippies did my parents. Well, 288 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: there's still a few of them hanging out here doing 289 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: the good, doing the good work. Speaking of good work, 290 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and hear about some good 291 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: work being done by these corporate sponsors. Welcome back to 292 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: the show, everybody now. Victor and Susie started the first 293 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: more House in Oakland. I think it's a little hard 294 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: to suss out, but in nineteen sixty eight they acquired 295 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: the seventeen acre plot of land in Lafayette, California, where 296 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: they restored this big gass house. And this is not 297 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: the only more House in existence. There are still operating 298 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: houses in Boston, Hawaii, and here in Atlanta, actually right 299 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: here in INMND Park. But more House, none of it. 300 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: Not to be confused with the historically black college and 301 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: university more House, which got it start as a Baptist 302 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: college and would probably not appreciate the association do you 303 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: think they constantly have to be like, no, no, it's 304 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: not that, I don't think so, it's probably the other 305 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: way around. More than likely, somebody stumbles into the More 306 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: House on Waverley Way and they're like, wait on, manute. 307 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: Somebody's like some high schoolers like I just applied to 308 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: More House, and then we have the strangest questions. They 309 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: asked me how much I'm masturbated. This is the only 310 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: college where they ask for a dick measurement on the 311 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,959 Speaker 1: application that I've seen so far. I feel like I'm 312 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: gonna head back to them and Yale, but that's for 313 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: the skull and bones now. The Lafayette More House House 314 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: is the most well known because that's where they established 315 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: the More University. Will get to that, and the house 316 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: has painted a bright electric purple. To get around the 317 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: expansive acreage, residents drive purple golf cards, and if they 318 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: ever want to go anywhere as a group, they use 319 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: limos that they restore on the property. In nineteen seventy two, 320 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: they showed up en masks to see The Godfather in 321 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: sixteen purple Cadillac limousine. Quote. We really caused quite a 322 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: stir One member told Robin Green in her nineteen seventy 323 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: two Rolling Stone follow up article Beyond Shazam, and can 324 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: I one day create that? Stir Can I have sixteen 325 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: purple Cadillac limousines take me to a movie. Uh? It 326 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: sounds like you've got to start a sex cult to 327 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: do that, which I had long encouraged. I think the 328 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: Fringe Festival is about two steps away. No, look, I'm 329 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: just saying a nudge in either direction and you might 330 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: get there. I'll bring it to the board. Yeah. Today, 331 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: the Lafayette more House campus is over twenty three acres 332 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: and it has a swimming pool, a boxing ring, to 333 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: tennis courts, a cocktail lounge, a television studio, and a nightclub. 334 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: It's like a baller location right in a big purple house. 335 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: Big eggplant purple. Yeah, very bright purple. Well, eggplants pretty dark. 336 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking, No, I'm just thinking about the dick emoji. 337 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: That's the only reason I'm associating it. Well, okay, So 338 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: this purple apparently serves two purposes. One is that simply 339 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: it's Susie Baranco's favorite color. So Victor was like, this 340 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: is my lady. She loves purple. For putting it up 341 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: on the house. She gets what she wants. It's your 342 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: favorite color too, I do love. I were to start 343 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: a sex cult, I'd have a real problem competing with 344 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: these guys because I'd be like, well, my wife's favorite 345 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: colors purple too, So what do I do. That's true, 346 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 1: I'll have to find a new favorite color, I guess. 347 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: I don't think we should let them push us around 348 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: like that. I think it's time for us. I think 349 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: we'll give purpose. Someone else has a tern with purple. 350 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: I had when when we went on All State Chorus trip, 351 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: right yeah. In in middle school, there was this whole thing, 352 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: you know, boys and girls couldn't be in the same 353 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: room together, all that stuff. So the way they set 354 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: that rule was they said no purple. And I was like, 355 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: what the hell are they talking about. And one of 356 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: the other students, one of my classmates, explained to me, 357 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: She's like, because boys are blue and girls are pink, 358 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: so like blue and red is purple, so you can't mix. 359 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: And I was like, that's the dumbest explanation I've ever 360 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: just And I'll tell you what. No purple was a 361 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: solid catch phrase for a few years for its sheer stupidity. 362 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: That's very dumb, extremely dumb thing. Well, we would use it, 363 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: you know, in the future anytime, you know, mocking those 364 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 1: kinds of rules. And then we would also use it 365 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: for any time an obnoxiously stupid rule was set up. 366 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: Would be like, oh, it's a no purple rule. Well 367 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: that's useful because then you can immediately be like, I 368 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: don't even even know what it is. It's dumb and 369 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: I'm not paying attention to hard fast on that one. Alright, 370 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: So big purple house. Susie loved purple. And the other 371 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: reason that they used purple so much was because it 372 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: helps people understand that they're entering a unique space when 373 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: they come onto the campus. Because obviously you see this 374 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,239 Speaker 1: big bright purple house, purple limousines, purple cards. You know 375 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: you're not in a normal setting. They're like, suspend your 376 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: everyday ship, all right, we're in a purple place. And 377 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: like the Wonka factory, Yes, it's exactly. Let go of 378 00:22:53,880 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: everything you thought you do. Houses can be purple. Who um. 379 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: They also have a sign up on campus to tell 380 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: you where you are at all times, and that sign 381 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: simply says here. And they also have a clock that 382 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: tells you what time it is, and it simply says now. 383 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's the most hippie ship I've heard. 384 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: I have to say. The clock is legit twelve, you 385 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: know number clock, but all the numbers just say now now. 386 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: So I guess you can still technically, if it works, 387 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: you can technically read the time. But it's still just 388 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: as now everywhere. I've got an important doctor's appointment at 389 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: three fifteen. What time is it? It's now? Man, Okay, 390 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: I guess I'll go. I might be late or early, 391 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: who knows. I'm supposed to have an interview, uh in 392 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: the in the C building. Can you tell me where 393 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: I am right now? Yeah? Man, you're here. This is 394 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 1: where I'm like, hippie stuff so funny because I'm like, 395 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: I see what you're doing is you're supposed to be present. 396 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: So you're here and now, and that's all that matters. 397 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: If you just show me thin about the past, you 398 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: show me think about the future. This is where you are, 399 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: this is what you're doing. All that's fine. It's not 400 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: very practical, however, when you need to like pay bills 401 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: because it be somewhere, because it does wetter well, because 402 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: of all this predilection for purple, More House residents are 403 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 1: sometimes called the purple people. They don't like it, but 404 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: they are called purple to you about it. They pushed back. 405 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: They're the ones who painted everything purpose I mean, you know. 406 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: The house is often referred to as the Purple Palace, 407 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: although some journalists in the seventies preferred to call it 408 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: fuck you get it, get it. And that's because one 409 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: of the major focuses of more House is just like 410 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: Victor and SUSY's initial marriage project, improve your sex life. 411 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: Keep in mind that at the time that the Moorhouse 412 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: folks are starting this commune with all of its sexual 413 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: fulfillment focus, it was considered indecent to use the word 414 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: vagina in a published article. I'm sorry, I should have. 415 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: We should have given a warning front. So even though 416 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: this was like the free love era and everything, like, 417 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 1: society at large was still kind of prudish when it 418 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: came to talking about sex and the language they used. 419 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: I will say that in like two thousand and three, 420 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: I got super piste because some lady drove by a 421 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: theater who that was showing the Vagina Monologue, and she 422 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: wrote an entire letter about how they should change it 423 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: to the who haa monologue because her little six year 424 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: old said, Mommy, what's a vagina? And I was like, 425 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: your six year old has one? So I don't understand 426 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: why who ha is better? But you're not still asking, right, 427 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: I was like, you're dumb. No purple rule, I guess 428 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: just to say we haven't got much better about vaginas. 429 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. I would have. I don't know 430 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 1: if you did this, but I would have immediately gone 431 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: home and written the who ha monologues. I did not, 432 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: but I should, and they'd probably be way filthier than 433 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: the vagina monologue ever wanted to be. Send us your 434 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 1: who monologues? Oh my, no video? Please? Yeah, I think 435 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: we can all get in trouble with it. Thank you, 436 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 1: all right. So they have a hard time talking about sex, 437 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: but Victor felt that in order to have really good sex, 438 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: you have to have conversations. Just true, very true, still today, 439 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: still today, still hasn't changed yet. One day, well, we 440 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: can stop having all these conversations about sex, I start 441 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 1: talking about it. But he also felt that you had 442 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: to be intentionally present to the sensations of sex instead 443 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: of just being in your head about it. So like, 444 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: say you're having sex with somebody and instead of thinking 445 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: about how good it's making you feel, or how close 446 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: you are to the person you're doing it with, and 447 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: all that, you're thinking about maybe things you don't like 448 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: about your body, or you're worried that the other person 449 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: isn't having a good time or whatever. The victor that 450 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: made you what he called a lazy comer comer come 451 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 1: right because he felt like you're not you're not engaging 452 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: all your senses in what you're doing. You're distracted, you're elsewhere, 453 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: You're you're doing too many things at once. Right again, 454 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: you're here and now that's all you're doing. Right, which 455 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: when you're having sex. Yeah, I don't care where I 456 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: am or what time it is. That's a great time 457 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,719 Speaker 1: to say what time is it? It's now, keep at it. 458 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: You know why you ask me what time it is 459 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: while we're having sex? Down, I feel incredibly offended. We 460 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: have to have a conversation about this man real clockwatcher. 461 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: But Linda Gray, who's another more House trainee, described all 462 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: this as sort of what Victor was saying. She said, quote, 463 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: most of our obstacles to orgasmic intensity center on our 464 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: limiting preconceived notions about sex, and we carry these thoughts 465 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: into bed. The training involves getting to know our physical 466 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: bodies as instruments capable of exquisite music, instruments that we 467 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: can play alone or with a partner at any time 468 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: of our choosing technique is far outweighed by our ability 469 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 1: to pay attention, our ability to focus on a particular 470 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: stroke in a particular moment, and to approve of what's happening. 471 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: And that's important. I do think that's really interesting to 472 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: think about, like applying your mind very much to what 473 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: you're doing, because I think a lot of sex talk 474 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: is about how orgasm or feeling good before an orgasm, 475 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: to the build up to climax or something is very 476 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: like it cloud your brain and you know you kind 477 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: of stop thinking altogether. Um, but they're feeling is that's 478 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 1: not true? If you if you engage your brain, it'll 479 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: be like ten times better for you then if you 480 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: disengage your And I think that can be true, especially 481 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: if you you are thinking I like this, I approve 482 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: of this, I'm into it. Like that must be helpful, right, Yeah? 483 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: And I was gonna say too at the end there 484 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: she says, to approve of what's happening. That's that's your 485 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,760 Speaker 1: consent right right exactly you're talking about you should be 486 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: conscious of what's going on, and you should say like this, 487 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: this works, not that, Yeah, but I I approve of 488 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: that works. Goodness, HERD approval, HERD approval on that. And 489 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: what it presupposes is that you know what you approve 490 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: of and what you like. And I think a lot 491 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: of people don't know, Like they're not willing to experiment necessarily, 492 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: either alone or with a partner, about what they like. 493 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: And so it's like, Okay, you're supposed to figure that 494 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: out and then you can tell people and then you 495 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: have a great time together and who loses, you know, 496 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: which I think is true definitely. So they taught courses 497 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: on how to achieve this orgasmic potential, and interestingly, they 498 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: feel like intercourse, like penis and vagina a sex is 499 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: quote a haphazard proposition. They're like, sometimes it goes great, 500 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: but not always. That's one of the more clumsy ways 501 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: to have sex. I suppose it's a hit and miss way, 502 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: all right. To them, mutual masturbation is the most effective 503 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: way for everyone to have the best possible time together. 504 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: Because with mutual masturbation, each person is fully focused on 505 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: one person's enjoyment. Right, So if if you and I 506 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: are having sex and you're masturbating me, you and I 507 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: are both fully focused on me. My brain is engaged 508 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: on how much I'm enjoying and creating it, and you're 509 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: engaged on me as well, and then we vice versa. 510 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: Whereas if we're having intercourse, we're both concentrating on either 511 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: ourselves or the other person rather than putting all our 512 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: focus on our own pleasure or your own pleasure. So 513 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: they're like one orgasm at a time so that it 514 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: gets so so like you get the full focus and 515 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: then I get the full focus. If we're both trying 516 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: to happen at the same time, there's too much distinct. 517 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't say one orgasm at a time because 518 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: they want continual especially, but like exactly one person at 519 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: a time, Yeah, to take turns kind of vibe, Yeah, 520 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: one person at a time. You know, one person has 521 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: ten orgasms, the other person as one, and you know 522 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: we call it even and we call it even. Yeah, 523 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: I guess, uh, they call it doing another person when 524 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: you masturbate them. They're doing you. I guess, you know, 525 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: I just some way that makes more sense than what 526 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: we you know, casually refer to as doing someone. It's true, 527 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: you're you're really doing something right there. It makes sense. 528 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: The course is about to have the perfect do so 529 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,240 Speaker 1: I'll do you super well, I guess, and I'm going 530 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: to use this do dad. I wonder if they do 531 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: employ toys. I think it's mostly about fingers, but they 532 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: probably do. Do they do? Do they do? Do what 533 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: they do? Do do your duty? Just don't douty, don't 534 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: do while we are doing the do unless you approve. 535 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. We're throwing a lot onto them at this. 536 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't into is brought up on their website whatsoever. 537 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: I think what we need to do do right now 538 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: is go to a commercial break because what's the poop 539 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: jokes hit? They don't stop better, we need to stop. 540 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, stick around and we're back. So 541 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: in the class of basic sensuality, women and men are 542 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: given plaster penises and vaginas to practice their techniques on. 543 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: I wonder if today it's more like dildos, like you know, yeah, 544 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: regular sex toys. Um, but They also are given homework, 545 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: which is to go home on a bath, koda, do 546 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: not disturb, sign on the door, and masterate. Okay, Now, 547 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: I have always been very anti homework. I know you 548 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,959 Speaker 1: hate it. I've only got a few waking hours at 549 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: home in between school and bed uh and I and 550 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: I you know, you know I benefited from doing well 551 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: on tests and stuff without anyway. Point I'm making is 552 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: this would have drastically changed my opinion on homework. You 553 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: would have done this homework homework you just didn't even 554 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: know you were a little well makes sense. I think 555 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,719 Speaker 1: the point is to figure out what you like, right, 556 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: so you know you approve. Now, Apparently some women, including 557 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: Susie Baranko, we're able to get to a point where 558 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: they could come immediately at the first touch and just 559 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: keep coming for hours in intense of that kind of time. 560 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: If you do it's now. Man, if you devote all 561 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: your life to it, then you got all the time, 562 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: just like God. These people have never you know, they 563 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: never watched ted Lasso. They don't time, They probably don't. Yeah, 564 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: now would you rather come for three hours or watch 565 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: ted Lasso? Can I watch two hours of ted Lasso? 566 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: Had come for one hour, because sometimes out an episode 567 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: of ted Lassoed end being choice I mean, Hannah, well, 568 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: for real, my god, and listen to this. In ninety six, 569 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: Victor Baranco actually put on the first public demonstration of 570 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,760 Speaker 1: this of the three hour Organs of the three hour Orgasm. 571 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: This was at the Lafayette More House. A woman named 572 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: Diana was in the proverbial hot scene, and since it 573 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: was meant to be an educational experience, Victor put her 574 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: on a gynecological table, so she had like her feet 575 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: up in stirrups, not very sexy, and he wore latex 576 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: gloves as he stimulated her. Apparently, um so again, it 577 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: was supposed to be more of a medical you know vibes, 578 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: so we're supposed to get a porno feeling out of this. 579 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: Well for something that is a porno feeling, we're very true. 580 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: And for three hours people watch Diana have orgasm after orgasm. 581 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: They would only pause for brief cigarette breaks before getting 582 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 1: right back to it. And I say, you know, you're 583 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: in the sixties. In the seventies, there stop for cigarettes. 584 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: He also had her recite nursery rhymes the whole time, 585 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: and if she trailed off, he would stop until she 586 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,240 Speaker 1: picked it back up again. So she'd be like, get lost, 587 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: you know, because she's orgasming for hours. Right, She'd be like, 588 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: I'd get kind of like sucked into what was happening 589 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: to me, and he would stop, and I'm like, oh, yeah, 590 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: Mary had a little or whatever. Little Jack Horner sat 591 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 1: in his corner eating his Christmas high Hi. Hi, back 592 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: to the story. Oh sorry, sorry, um weird. So it was. 593 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like having a nursery rhyme power, you know, 594 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: fucking machine or something, I guess. And the point of 595 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: this was apparently to demonstrate that your brain and your 596 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: memory and your motor functions and everything are all completely 597 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: functional during an orgasm, and they can be used to 598 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: intensify your pleasure. So again, instead of acting like a 599 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:23,320 Speaker 1: good orgasm is so consuming that like your brain disappears, 600 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, and you stop thinking and you stop feeling conscious, 601 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: They're they're saying that your orgasms are better when your 602 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 1: brain is engaged. As Linda Gray put it, quote, your 603 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 1: brain is on your side, which is a nice thing 604 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: to say. Not always true, depends on right. My brain 605 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: has been on someone else's side at various times, all right, 606 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: we'll challenge that because I just this week saw a 607 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: headline pop up. I did a quick google here um 608 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: and just from Medical Daily, they said there was a 609 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 1: study that during an orgasm, the lateral orbitofrontal cortex, the 610 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: brain reach behind the left eye, shuts down. During an orgasm, 611 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,720 Speaker 1: this region is considered to be the voice of reason 612 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: and controls behavior, it says. The brain of both a 613 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: man and woman is said to look much like the 614 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: brain of a person taking heroin during an orgasm, according 615 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: to a study published in the Journal of Neuroscience. Okay, well, 616 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: then you'll see this won't be the first time you'll 617 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: see some specious medical advice. This guy who laid down 618 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 1: on a rug and thought about it for a while 619 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 1: didn't come up with sounds scientific results. Okay, Now, you 620 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: might be wondering why this woman, Diana did this public 621 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: demonstration and not Victor's wife Susie, who apparently had been 622 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: the main demonstrator for a number of years. But that's 623 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: because in nineteen seventy six, Victor and Susie got divorced, 624 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: and Susie had continued to live at Lafayette morehow but 625 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: it seems like she wasn't really trying to have a 626 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,320 Speaker 1: sexual relationship with Victor anymore. Yeah, I don't know how. 627 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: There's no information about how they grew apart, what exactly 628 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 1: came between them, or if they just kind of felt 629 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: like we got to the point where it's over now. 630 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 1: I don't know, like there's nowhere further for us to 631 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: go together or what. So they had divorced, but meanwhile, 632 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: Diana was in love with Victor, so she was fully 633 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: ready to be a part of this. She had even 634 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: gotten a friend of hers, Cindy Goin's, and her husband Anthony, 635 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: to join more House. In nineteen four, Cindy apparently started 636 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 1: taking courses because she had a yeast infection that wouldn't 637 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: go away, and quote Vic thought, if your crotch was broken, 638 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: there was a reason it wanted more attention paid to it, 639 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: which again is the kind of medical advice you'd get 640 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: from someone who decided to take smells d and lay 641 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 1: down and think about it. Yeah, I don't know about 642 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: that one. Do not try that to rid yourself the 643 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 1: yeast ship. He basically like more orgasms for this yeast infection. 644 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 1: So I really feel like it's counter into it. Yeah, 645 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: but she said it works She's like, I took no medicine. 646 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 1: I had a bunch of orgasms. The yeast infection went away. 647 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: But I feel like that ship clears up on its 648 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: own if you let it hang out for a long time. 649 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that much about yeast infections, 650 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: but maybe it works, but I ain't gonna try it 651 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: when I get one, like a medicated cream, please and 652 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 1: thank you. So. Cindy and her husband became residents of 653 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: the Lafayette Morehouse, and when Vic was forty two, he 654 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: had what he called a thunderbolt experience, and he fell 655 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: madly in love with Cindy. He said, quote all the sudden, 656 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: everything I was doing meant something. I never thought the 657 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: party was going to slowly again. Nothing was dull anymore 658 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: because I had this magnificent obsession. What it did was 659 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 1: put me into my life. Somehow I used her as 660 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: an excuse to pay even more attention to my own life. 661 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: What I'm telling you is without giving up being interesting, 662 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 1: if you will direct your attention towards being interested, you 663 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 1: might stumble across your own magnificent obsession. And it doesn't 664 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: have to be a tall blond, I added, isn't there 665 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: because Cindy and I kind of agree with that. Actually, 666 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 1: when when I read that, I was like, he sounds 667 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 1: crazy a bit. But I've always thought that if you 668 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: want to be an interesting person, your first task is 669 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: to be interested. You have to be curious, right, because 670 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: you can't get interesting if you're not interested in what's 671 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,280 Speaker 1: going on around you. Was I wrong that ted Lasso 672 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: is a big part of this, and now be curious, 673 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: not judgmental. Absolutely, So the two of them got married 674 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy nine, and Vic then had an artificial 675 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: lake constructed in the shape of a heart as a 676 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: tribute to Cindy. I just find that romantic that if 677 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: you go to Lafayette morehow everything's purple for Susie, there's 678 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: this lake for Cindy, Like you know, there's just all 679 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,760 Speaker 1: these little touches of Vick's true love for these these women. 680 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: I think his his his real love for them was 681 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 1: very real, for sure. So I just find that kind 682 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: of cute. Okay, But back to the orgasm stuff. Who Now, 683 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:25,080 Speaker 1: they did not stop at these public demonstrations, all right, 684 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: They started handing out degrees about this. Now. At first 685 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: they called it the Institute of Human abilities, which kind 686 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 1: of sounds like a professor X type of school or something. 687 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: And they taught courses on basic and advanced sensuality, basic hexing, 688 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 1: group living, basic and Advanced communication, jealousy, relationships, and something 689 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: called man woman a conversation about gender. Okay, can I 690 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 1: jump back real quick and say that I would totally 691 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 1: ask some people to take a group living course because 692 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: I have group lived a few times in my life, 693 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 1: and we all could have used a course of course 694 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: would have been And I'll tell you basic hexing is 695 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: not like a wizard thing. It's like a wizard thing. No. 696 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: For them. Hexing to them is basically like uh, saying 697 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: mean things to you, essentially, but they're true. So it's 698 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 1: like being bluntly honest with you about things, or with 699 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: anyone about things that need that are true about you 700 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: or things that need to change whatever. And so you 701 00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 1: kind of bring people down that way. It's sort of 702 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: a manipulation tactic um, and then you bring them back 703 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 1: up with blessing and you tell them nice things and 704 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: you make them feel good about themselves. And so this 705 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 1: is like the perfection thing where they tell you how 706 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: perfect you are and then they tell you what you 707 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: need to change. You're great. I love you, You're perfect. 708 00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: No change. Hey, welcome to class today. You've got a 709 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: stupid face.

Uh, everybody loves your elbows. 714 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: And um, don't forget that one time that you, you know, 715 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: pulled me away from the be getting hit by that 716 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 1: moving car. You know, I mean, I think, so okay, 717 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: you know what, Can you just tell me the second part? No, 718 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: because then you won't change and improve a kid? Fix 719 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,280 Speaker 1: my stupid face. What's funny is there? Like? Listen um? 720 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: Basic hex sing is like everyone uses hex sing. You 721 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 1: and I do it every day, even if you don't 722 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: take a course on it. We all hecks, we all 723 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 1: bless right. And they said, we used to call it 724 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: the Blessing course and nobody took it. Now that's a 725 00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:01,240 Speaker 1: hex that's what they say. That's quote from our little video. Interesting, 726 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 1: that's a hex. He wants to learn how to be 727 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: nice to someone, but everybody wants to learn how I know, 728 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: how to be how to heck someone, which again I 729 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: kind of get. Um. Oh, they also have a course 730 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: called quote Mutual Pleasurable Stimulation of the Human Nervous System Intensive, 731 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 1: which is better known as the sixty nine course, and 732 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: I think they should just call it that because I 733 00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 1: was like, I don't know what that means. Ritual pleasurable 734 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 1: stimulation of the human nervous system. Oh, you're talking about 735 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 1: the old sixty nine. I think everybody could use a 736 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: course in that, because it's not something you can just 737 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: naturally do. I think there's some acrobat acrobatics involves. Now. 738 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:48,719 Speaker 1: Of course, all these classes cost money, and so did 739 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: living in the moor House. You paid to live there, 740 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 1: and upon completing these courses you could start your own 741 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: more House, which basically meant that Victor created a franchise 742 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 1: of communes that Robin Green called quote so effective and 743 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 1: profitable that people in Berkeley referred to Baranco as the 744 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: Colonel Sanders of the commune scene. Yeah, yeah, he's like, 745 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: I got eleven herbs and spices for you. Basically, excuse me. 746 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: I should also mention that you can start your own 747 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: more house. But more House the collective. The bigger organization 748 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 1: would purchase the property, so you never got to own 749 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: the property. They all that money went to the larger organization. 750 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 1: Just just throwing that in there. Before you start your 751 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: own more House franchise, be aware, don't get excited. This 752 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: is where many of the controversies about Lafayette more House 753 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: are based, and they essentially started with Robin Green's nine 754 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 1: seventy one Sergeant Bill co article and her follow up 755 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:55,080 Speaker 1: Beyond Shazam, both of which spent a lot of time 756 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: discussing the money that the courses cost. Usually each course 757 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 1: was about forty of dollars at the cheapest, which today, 758 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 1: let me pull up the currency converter is about three 759 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty dollars. And you would take like a 760 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,959 Speaker 1: three hour class where a teacher would demonstrate the best 761 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: positions for masturbating and then assign you homework to go 762 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: home and masturbate. So to Robin, it was like a 763 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 1: real scheme. Yeah. Basically, like she's like you're kind of 764 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: getting ripped off to be like told to Everyone knows 765 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: how to masturbate, you know, Like she's kind of like 766 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 1: sneering at it, and I don't need to pay anyone 767 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: to tell me to go home and masturbate. I'm doing 768 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 1: it well. So originally we were going to do this, 769 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, as a one part episode, but there's just 770 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 1: so much more to talk about here because all those 771 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:50,399 Speaker 1: controversies that we were just referring to, there's so much 772 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: there there is, and they barely scratched the surface. Seriously, 773 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 1: I mean, we got to talk about some of the 774 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 1: trouble that this place has gotten into. Uh maybe some 775 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: potential cover ups about some nefarious possibly happenings, we don't know, 776 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: but it's it's, you know, everything we've heard so far 777 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 1: it sounds kind of nice. I mean mostly there's just 778 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 1: a couple of things where I'm like, you know, but 779 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 1: for the most part, it's I mean it is very 780 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: peace and love and now and right, you know, just 781 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 1: have better sex. What could be problem? What could be 782 00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 1: the problem with that? I mean, this guy went from 783 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: conning sailors for their eight dollar diamond rings having three 784 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: hour orgasms for his wife, you know. I mean, that's 785 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,319 Speaker 1: that's quite a journey, right, And that's the other thing. 786 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 1: Like so many like sex cult type stories, it's about 787 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,280 Speaker 1: a guy and he gets a lot of young women. 788 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,919 Speaker 1: You know to have sex with him, and that's why 789 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 1: it's really gross and exploitative. And this cult is definitely 790 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 1: a guy, very charismatic leader, but it's all about your pleasure. 791 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: It's not really about his pleasure. And I'm sure he's 792 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 1: getting laid plenty, but you know, it seems like such 793 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 1: a different focus um that it's like, well, that's kind 794 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 1: of a nice change his exchange rates because he's like, 795 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you three hours, three hours of orgasms, 796 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 1: now my turn, please, I'd like my ten minutes, thank 797 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: you very much. Well, who knows. They might have had 798 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 1: some tan trick techniques for gentlemen as well. It's just 799 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: not quite the focus of their website. It's mostly about 800 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,359 Speaker 1: women or using for an hour, but maybe the men 801 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: also orgasm for an hour and they just don't, you know, 802 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 1: finish until the very end, but they can feel like 803 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 1: they're having an orgasm for a long time. I don't 804 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: know if that's possible. I don't know. All things are 805 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 1: possible through drugs. There was a lot of them. That 806 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,720 Speaker 1: was some of the Robin Green articles she mentioned talking 807 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: to people who had dropped a little acid before a 808 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,799 Speaker 1: basic sensuality class like that, so that was the only 809 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,760 Speaker 1: time that anyone ever admitted that, Like, there's some drugs 810 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 1: going on in this process, but I think you can 811 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: infer some of the ways they talk having a real 812 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,919 Speaker 1: good time. I don't know what L s D does 813 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 1: dear sex experience. I mean, I've never sund it myself. 814 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. Terrifying, like because if it goes the 815 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,960 Speaker 1: wrong way, it's like suddenly I'm having sex with Satan. 816 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like a giant cockroach. Yeah, maybe 817 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: that's the good thing about it.
