17 MAY 2019 · Pericles famously said, "Just because you don't take an interest in politics doesn't mean that politics won't take an interest in you." That's what this episode is all about.

Big D goes over the history of past legislation, what the current bills being proposed really do, and how you can fight this. WARNING: This episode contains explicit language that may offend some listeners, but listeners should really be offended at the actions of the people we hire to run government for us.

Big D shares stories about his friend Joe and some of the things that happened in that hot tub, including the bed that needed WD-40, the hand lotion contest, and the party that happened when Joe wasn't home. It's a love fest as we talk about the old "soak and poke."

17 MAY 2019 · I didn't like how the original episode 5 was organized (meaning it wasn't) so I cut a second take of this episode.
This episode looks at how exotic dancers are classified by clubs. Should they be independent contractors? Or should they be employees? Big D examines industry lawsuits over these issues, some of the potential positives and negatives of each classification, and how the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of Labor, Wage and Hours Division determines how a worker is classified. This is a must listen for club owners, club managers, and house dancers.
