9. Discommoded Bathrooms

Discommoded Bathrooms

Ken’s guest was flushed away by the storms raging across eastern Pennsylvania, so the Them portion of the show is spent in the bathroom. But is it single sex, multi-sex, state controlled replete with bathroom police, moderated by the Moral Majority, or what? Then there’s that unmitigated disaster known as DUI Checkpoints.

Found in this episode:

What’s in the Mail Bag? 00:02:30-00:14:30

• Net Neutrality and Government control of Social Media. Or is it Not Neutrality?
• More about legalizing cannabis. Is it really racist?
• How to afford affordable healthcare. It sure ain’t Obamacare!
• Welfare work requirements. Enough to make you sick (er)
• Pennsylvania’s biggest problem! Can you guess?

About that Bathroom 00:16:30-00:39:30

• Introduction: Ken as a Gypsy Woman.
  *Regulating YOUR bathroom, your business’ bathroom
  *What about schools, courtrooms, other government buildings?
  *Gender identity: Amenity or Obscenity? Or neither?
  *The solution, in three parts:

1. Bathroom Suffrage
2. Don’t ask, can’t tell
3. Pushing out the Pusher

What Sticks in Ken’s Craw? DUI Checkpoints! 00:42:00-00:55:00

• The truth revealed: Cops LOVE donuts! (And soft pretzels.)
• What goes on behind the scenes at a DUI checkpoint?
• The victims:

1. Not drunk, but hauled away in irons
2. Drunk, not hauled away in irons
3. The unaffordable price of free donuts

• Waddaya mean, there are better ways to catch drunks.
• The FBI really said that?
