Tracy Tyler looking like Samantha FoxDutch psychologists are now offering a course in overcoming blushing. Personally, I like it when someone blushes a little, it reveals a sensitive side that I might like to get to know a little better. But, according to Ask Yahoo:

“Blushing is a unique blend of evolutionary and social behavior. It’s an involuntary reaction of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for our “fight or flight” response, but blushing is solely triggered by social cues.

People generally blush when they’re feeling embarrassed, scared, or stressed. As a result of the “fight or flight” response, the capillaries that carry blood to the skin widen, and the increased blood flow lends the face, as well as sometimes the chest, neck, or even the body or legs, a reddened color.”

Today we share our predictions for the Super Tuesday Presidential Primaries, did we get it right? As of this writing we still don’t have a clear winner for the Democrats. Of course, McCain is still the front runner for the Republican party. I respect McCain if he gets the nomination because the man is tough. He was caught and tortured by the Vietnamese. I’ve eaten at Vietnamese restaurants so I know a little of what that’s like. Pho-yuk! I can only imagine what he had to eat. Just kidding, I’ll vote Democrat, but Vietnamese food still generally sucks. Oh, and torture sucks too.

Can high heel shoes can improve your sex life? There’s science behind this one- It seems that a certain amount of heel in your shoe can strengthen your pelvic floor muscles which will make you a better lover. Shoes also make your calves look good and puts your butt into a “presenting” mode like you would see on Animal Planet. So, the shoe not only gets you into the sack but it adds benefits to keep you there. So, now you know why that little old lady lived in a shoe had so many dang kids.

We can’t believe that dear sweet Tracy chastised her cats Empress and Venus for engaging in a little pussy play. She actually yelled at them for a just a little casual catalingus. Tracy was shocked that her kitties came out of the closet like that. No warning at all! No softball games, no mullets, no Virginia Wolfe, they just went straight to the muff diving. Wow! Now, she really does feel bad about the catus interruptus so don’t be too harsh on her. But, have you ever had a pet go gay? We want to know.

Join us today as we discuss all these wonderful things and also a blow up doll loses it’s moan in Transylvania- blah blah, why Wal-Mart won’t sell condoms to teens and so much more.

Never surrender- the podcast that wont give up anything for Lent, it’s Chicago’s very own Feast of Fools!
