January 23rd - 27th 2021Learn More Now!________________________________________________________________________________________I need to get honest with you about sex.Because I love it, and believe that celebrating mindful, “conscious sex” is essential for gay men’s dignity. My last "Being A Man," or BAM, episode was about moving from oppression to celebration; and I barely mentioned sex at all.After a long discussion with my boyfriend regarding my struggle writing that episode, I realized that I had let my socialized, American, fear about sex, launch me into a clumsy, diatribe about fear itself, and my fear of just talking about what I really want.So let’s talk about the sex we have and the reasons we can celebrate it.After all, it just makes sense for a podcast “for gay men” to address the one and only thing that all gay men have in common, the urge to merge, the passion that surges in our balls, our gut, our brains, and our hearts, to seek out and touch other men, intimately.We talked about:Consent [8:32]Sex and Relationships [16:29]Fuck Buddies [20:02]Mentioned in this episodeBe Here Now by Ram DassGuy BaldwinPolyamory

Nathan earned his Ph.D. in French Studies from Tulane University and a Doctorat en Langues et littératures from Université de Poitiers. His research focuses primarily on literatures, cultures, and oral tradition of Francophone North America (primarily Louisiana, Acadia, and Quebec). Professor Rabalais's courses include The Craft of Writing, Heroes, French and Creole Louisiana, and Pop Culture of Francophone North America. His most recent publications and feature-length documentary Finding Cajun (2019) focus on the intersection of language and identity in Louisiana and Acadian communities of Canada.

He is currently completing a monograph, Folklore Figures of French and Creole Louisiana, forthcoming with LSU Press.This week in Louisiana history. January 26, 1861. Louisiana's Secession Convention overwhelmingly votes to secede from the Union and become the Republic of Louisiana. This week in New Orleans history. Today we celebrate the first edition of The Picayune on Wednesday, January 25, 1837. It contained 4 pages, few graphics, and was distributed by two carriers who sold 800 of the 1000 copies that had been printed from the office at No. 38 Gravier Street. The following day, January 26, 1837, 2,000 copies were printed and sold. It was the first New Orleans newspaper to sell for less than a dime. A picayune (a Spanish coin) equalled about 6 1/4 cents. This week in Louisiana.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the International edition from Interest.co.nz.Today we lead news markets are hesitant and nervous as weird data mixes with weird public policy choices.Wall Street is flat today, unsure what to make of the rising global tensions. But at least their fears of a year-end funding squeeze never materialised thanks in large part to the quarter-trillion dollars the Federal Reserve stuffed into the market via repos to ensure nothing became gummed up. Now attention is turning to how the Fed gets out of the liquidity fix it is in.In Europe overnight, equity markets were weak, with most bourses down about -0.6%.German retail sales for November came in better than expected, but German car production is on the skids, with 2019 recording -9% lower output than for 2018 and exports down -13%.And the Sentix global investor survey has surprised with sharply improving sentiment worldwide. It is a result that has flummoxed the survey takers. [Advert]And here is a message from our friends at Hatch.With Hatch, anyone can invest in the US share markets.Billionaire Warren Buffett says investors should stick to areas they know, so it’s no surprise that Kiwis are backing technology companies through our investing platform. Companies like Nvidia, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Disney and Tesla regularly feature as our most popular shares. Visit www.hatch.as/investing to buy any of these US-listed shares and learn more. In China, they revealed their tax and fee cut program in 2019 released NZ$425 bln in liquidity and they say that had the effect of adding +0.8% to 2019 GDP. Given that China's 2019 GDP rose +6.1%, that is a lot of one-off stimulus from just one policy action.And the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, their financial watchdog, released a guideline saying it would promote the conversion of household savings into long-term capital market fund. It did not say how it would do this. But it is a move that will juice up the Chinese stock market substantially when it is implemented.In Australia, as their subsoils and clays start a rare drying out, they are shrinking. And that is causing buildings to crack and other structures to subside. Australia may have avoided the leaky building problems of more temperate countries (New Zealand, Canada, USA), but they have a new and worrying building crisis ahead of them too now, one that won't be going away, and one that will cost billions to remediate.And the two rival PMI reports of their factory sector both show it contracting in December. The long-running AIGroup report and the internationally benchmarked Markit one both reveal declining new orders and declining production. When January data is available, almost certainly it will be weaker as the drought and fires bite. Services are also contracting although not as sharply yet.The UST 10yr yield will start today little-changed at 1.80%. The price of gold is much firmer again today, up another +US$12, now at US$1,564/oz, after serious American mis-steps in the Middle East.US oil prices are holding at their higher level at just over US$63/bbl and the Brent benchmark is also higher at just under US$69/bbl. The potential for an oil price shock hit the Tokyo stock markets hard yesterday, down -1.9%.The Kiwi dollar will start today unchanged at 66.7 USc. On the cross rates we are a lot firmer at 96.2 AUc. Against the euro we are holding at 59.6 euro cents. That keeps our TWI-5 at 71.5.But bitcoin is up +1.1% to US$7,534.

I put out a new episode every week!This week in Louisiana history. January 4, 1830 Louisiana State government moved to Donaldsonville from New Orleans. Donaldsonville was designated as the Louisiana capital (1829–1831),[11] as the result of conflict between the increasing number of Anglo-Americans, who deemed New Orleans "too noisy" and wanted to move the capital closer to their centers of population farther north in the state, and French Creoles, who wanted to keep the capital in a historically-French area (Wikipedia). This week in New Orleans history. January 4, 2006. Hubig's Pie factory reopens post-Katrina. This week in Louisiana.
