It’s certainly been an unfunky couple of years, maybe more, but it’s important to keep our eyes on the prize and play the long game that the morons and monsters in charge can’t understand.  We must keep the #FunkyResistance alive, brothers and sisters, in a spirit of LOVE and UNITY that will sustain us through the hard times — OHHHHHH YEAHHHHH!!!!

Mr. Beau Dayshus is tired!  He’s gonna need a lot of FUN and a lot of LOVE to help him regenerate the soulful energy that’s been sapped by the soul-sucking vampires that have taken hold of the last 2 years.  Two more to go, so let’s support each other as best we can and turn this beat around — OHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHH!!!!!

As Mr. Beau Dayshus knocks on doors in Georgia with Oprah, his pal Russ T sits in for a special VOTE Dammit episode of DRV.  He argues somewhat coherently that White Male Patriarchy is bad even for old white men like himself, and that voting for and empowering women is the perfect antidote.  And women — don’t be a Melania, be a Yoko Ono!  Demand equality and vote for candidates who will do the same.  YESSIREEEE!!

Time to take a breath, step back, and recharge those #FunkyResistance batteries.  #WhiteMalePrivilege seems to be in full effect, but let’s not believe the hype.  They are ruling by minority, and democracy will bury them, but only if the rest of us #VOTEdammit!  Here’s an hour of strong, diverse, sexy funk to raise a fist to — OHHHHH YEAHHHHHH!!!!

Mr. Beau Dayshus breaks the DustyRadio Valencia mold with this episode by devoting most of his commentary to reading poignant tweets from sexual abuse survivors and supporters of the same from #IBelieveHer and #IBelieveChristine.  We all need to support Dr. Ford and the women and men who have had to suffer their trauma in fear and silence.  White Male Hegemony needs to be finally defeated by the #FunkyResistance, and this show presents a danceable call to arms — OHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHH!!!

It may have seemed like a good week for bullies, but actually it seems like the bully side for all its huffing and puffing is starting to run out of steam.  The threats are sounding old, the excuses are sounding weak, the “enemies” are sounding reasonable.  Fear and anger are giving way to a search for community.  Time to get on the dance floor and shake those bully blues away — OHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHH!!!

Sometimes the #FunkyResistance has to be put aside for a bit so we can simply get down and be righteously funky!  Recharge the batteries that have been depleted by depressing news headlines and groove to the beautiful boogie overflowing in this episode of DustyRadio Valencia — OHHHHHH YEAHHHHHH!!!!

While the media obsesses on who is “winning” and who is “losing” as if all life can be expressed in binary terms, it’s time to question the “Divide and Conquer” approach that is tearing the country apart.  The #FunkyResistance movement needs to work even harder to use diversity, tolerance, unity and love against the bullying binary forces — OHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHH!!!

Divide and conquer is the Machiavellian strategy dictated by the Bully-In-Chief from his Moronic Pulpit, but the #FunkyResistance guides us to unite and fight with love and funky music.  Music is the universal language that has the power to bring us together on the dance floor and on the streets — OHHHH YEAHHHHH!!!

The week in News Porn is getting more and more boring, because if we’re old enough we’ve seen this movie before, and it was plenty unfunky the first time around.  But some very funky music came out of some very crummy times, and DRV faithfully recycles that music for your listening pleasure — OHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHH!!!
