Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast Here are some links and references mentioned during this week’s show: More than a dozen women have come forward to accuse porn actor Ron Jeremy of sexual assault. Natalia referred to historian Estelle B. Freedman’s book, Redefining Rape: Sexual Violence in the Era of Suffrage and Segregation and to Lorelei Lee’s personal essay about sex work in n+1. In our regular closing feature, What’s Making History: Natalia discussed this petition put forth by the New York City dance community. Neil shared about the HBO documentary, Welcome to Chechnya. Niki recommended Nellie Bowles’ New York Times article, “God Is Dead. So is the Office. These People Want to Save Both.”
Book Vs Movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes The Anita Loos 1925 novel Vs the 1953 Howard Hawkes classic film The Margos are heading back to the 50s (well, really the 20s if you want to be technical about it!) Gentleman Prefer Blondes was first published in 1925 by Anita Loos in Harper’s Bazaar magazine as a serial. The book itself was so popular at the time that Edith Wharton dubbed it “the Great American Novel” considering it came out the same year as Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby--that is incredible praise. The story itself is a simple tale about a “professional lady” making her way in the world trying to nab a wealthy suitor. Lorelei Lee is a blonde flapper from Little Rock, Arkansas and men can’t help but so attracted to her she winds up getting whatever she wished for in life. Dorothy Shaw is Lorelei’s best friend and has her own romantic struggles (one of them being a brunette which makes her work harder to get men to pay attention to her.) The movie was directed by Howard Hawkes and stars Jane Russell as Dorothy and Marilyn Monroe as Lorelei. It was a huge hit in 1953 and the stars got along famously. It’s considered a classic musical and pre-feminist statement. Between the novella and Howard Hawkes film--which did the Margos like better? (Is it even going to be close?) In this ep the Margos discuss: The life of Anita Loos The setting of the book and why the 1920s was known as the flapper era Major changes between the novel and the 1953 film The cast which includes: Marilyn Monroe (Lorelei Lee,) Jane Russell (Dorothy Shaw,) Charles Coburn (Sir Francis “Piggy” Beekman,) Elliott Reid (Ernie Malone,) Tommy Noonan (Gus Esmond Jr,) and George Winslow (Henry Spofford) Clips Featured: Lorelei is accused of stealing in Paris Gentleman Prefer Blondes trailer Lorelei and Dorothy meet Henry Spofford Lady Beekman (Norma Varden) shows Lorelei her tiara Outro music: “Is There Anyone Here for Love” Jane Russell Join our Patreon page to help support the show! https://www.patreon.com/bookversusmovie Book Vs.

Sex work brings out extreme views. On one end of the dial: "It's purely exploitative and nothing someone could actively consent to!" And on the other: "It's wholly empowering consensual trade that should be celebrated!" We talk with writer and sex worker Lorelei Lee about how sex work can be like other kinds of labor: underpaid, boring, unfulfilling, and yet not necessarily vile criminality or sublimely erotic and expressive. A pair of laws passed by Congress in 2018, SESTA and FOSTA, have made sex work more dangerous and subject to criminal prosecution.
In this episode, Natalia, Neil, and Niki discuss the role of whistleblowers in American politics, the recent string of church arsons, and the trend of co-working spaces. Support Past Present on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/pastpresentpodcast Here are some links and references mentioned during this week’s show: An intelligence officer has filed a complaint regarding Donald Trump’s interactions with the president of Ukraine. We discussed the history of whistleblowing and Niki noted the role of Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon papers in shaping contemporary ideas about whistleblowing. Natalia referenced the founding fathers’ attention to protecting whistleblowers. The FBI is currently investigating a string of church arsons in El Paso, Texas. Natalia noted that the racist motivations behind many church arsons are often questioned by conservatives, such as Michelle Malkin. The co-working company WeWork may be going under. Natalia mentioned a New York Times Magazine profile of WeWork that detailed how work and socialization go hand in hand in these co-working spaces. In our regular closing feature, What’s Making History: Natalia discussed her recent CNN piece, “Why It’s So Scary When Trump Tweets about Civil War.” Neil shared the New York Times article, “Labradoodle Creator Says the Breed Is His Life’s Regret.” Niki talked about Lorelei Lee’s n+1 essay, “Cash/Consent.”
Episode 30 features an interview with sex worker, activist, and writer Lorelei Lee. We discuss her article, “Once You Have Made Pornography,” which describes the many ways sex work stigma manifests and its impacts your life. We also talk about strategies for combatting stigma and how sex workers rely on each other for support and affirmation. For our news segment, Julian Gill-Peterson, author of Histories of the Transgender Child, joins us to discuss the Trump administration’s recent memo instructing government agencies to no longer recognize trans identities.

We discuss selections of her witty writing on her experience working in Hollywood during the golden era. Stories from Kiss Hollywood Goodbye (1974), Fate Keeps on Happening (1984), Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1925) and A Girl Like I (1966).

Picking up cash with your pussy. Pulling bills out of your butt. Torturing men until they reveal where they've hidden your money around the room.

Money makes the world go round, or so it's been sung. So what about when cash makes your pussy wet and your dick hard? Pornographer, writer, and activist Lorelei Lee understands both sides of the transactional fetish known as financial domination. In this episode, Tina and Lorelei explore the circumstances in which sex work is and is not "findoming," plus all the different ways to fuck on top of a pile of money. “You exist only to prop me up. This is the entire reason you go to work. You’re just a pay piggie. You might as well sign over your check to me. The thing that’s thrilling me is having cash accumulate around me, rubbing it on my body, smelling it. I love to fuck on it. I love to throw it around the room. I feel like I’m receiving power when I receive that money, power that I specifically felt the lack of at many times in my life. I’m owning it, controlling it, stepping on it. Maybe the thing I’m dominating is the money… “ Lorelei Lee has been an adult film performer, a bachelor party dancer, a professional dominatrix, a waitress, an advice columnist, and a writing teacher.

Anita Loos (1888-1981) är kvinnan skyldig till att ha myntat uttrycket diamanter är en kvinnas bästa vän. Det gjorde hon i boken Herrar föredrar blondiner, en roman som tolkats både på scen och film många gånger. Inför helgens Oscarsgala passar vi på att titta närmare på den fyndiga Anita Loos, som var en av Hollywoods kvinnliga pionjärer inom manusförfattande. Anita Loos var en Hollywoods flitigaste, mest framgångsrika och roligaste manusförfattare – och det redan under stumfilmseran. Hon kunde faktiskt skryta med att redan som 24-åring ha arbetat med den man som kom att revolutionera det nya mediet filmen – D W Griffith, vars epos En nations födelse från 1915 blev trendsättande för hur historier på film därefter kom att berättas. Hon kännetecknades inte bara av sina pigga ekorrliknande ögon, sin kortklippta tuffa flapperfrisyr eller sitt stora modeintresse, som fick henne att bära dyrbar design av dåtidens storheter som Chanel och Mainbocher. Hon hade framför allt ett sällsynt sinne för tillvarons absurditeter, inte minst när det gällde förhållandet mellan kvinnor och män. Hon kunde för sitt liv inte ta drömmen om romantisk kärlek på allvar och sade sig tidigt ha insett att sex, det var ”ett stort kosmiskt skämt”. De flesta män som intresserade sig för henne tråkade ut henne, ”till tårar”, som hon sade. Men hon hade ett gott öga till dem som hade självdistans. Hon var en mästare på rappa dialoger och än idag är filmen The Women från 1939 (baserad på en roman av Clare Booth Luce) som hon skrev filmmanuset till kul att se, och höra. Till och med mycket roligare än den nya versionen med bland annat Meg Ryan, från 2008 I veckans program berättar vi mer om Anita Loos, och historien om Herrar föredrar blondiner, omden blonda, blåsta och amoraliska Lorelei Lee.En bok som faktiskt började som följetong i amerikanska modetidningen Harper's Bazaar (1925) innan den tog världen med storm. Till och med en tungviktare som författaren James Joyce var ett fan. Den trycktes i hundratusentals exemplar, översattes till 14 språk och gav upphov till flera pjäser och filmer, varav den med Marilyn Monroe och Jane Russell från 1953 är den mest berömda, idag. Nu i maj sätts pjäsen upp igen, i New York. I programmet tar vi även upp den ofrivilliga humorn som kan dyka i modevärlden. Bland annat har vi talat med Emi Gunér, som driver bloggen ”Letter from the end consumer” om den saken. Vi har också mött Marlene Abraham, designern bakom det nya (det startade 2010) svenska märket Mayla som satsar på elegant stil. Dessutom har vi mött författaren Josefine Adolfsson. Tillsammans med regissören Lisa Aschan, skrev hon manus till den uppmärksammade svenska filmen Apflickorna. Den fick fina recensioner, vann priser på internationella filmfestivaler och på Guldbaggegalan för några veckor sedan, kammade filmen hem tre utmärkelser, bland annat för bästa manus. Med henne har vi talat om vad en liten leopardbikini egentligen kan laddas med. Veckans gäst är Johan Andreasson, illustratör och filmentusiast.
