Does sex sell? Off the PG-13, parental-advisory Beaten Path -- free today only!

Get ready for the raciest Off the Beaten Path ever — and we can credit (blame?) Senator John Kennedy and a Virginia Democrat for it! Larry O’Connor and I start on the beaten path with brief discussions of hot topics. We discuss Kevin McCarthy’s announcement that the House will open a formal impeachment inquiry for Joe Biden based on evidence of corruption as VP, and we also briefly take New Mexico emperor — er, governor — Michelle Lujan Grisham to the woodshed. We quickly then discuss the hilarious scene at today’s Senate hearing with Kennedy’s NSFW School Storybook Hour. From there, we then delve into the scandal surrounding a state legislative candidate in Virginia, Susanna “Hotwifeexperience” Gibson, who’s setting new standards for transparency in, er, marital relations.

Welcome back to our VIP video series “Off the Beaten Path,” featuring my friend Larry O’Connor! The Townhall columnist and Salem News Channel host starts off our week by discussing stories and ideas that may fly under our radar, in culture, politics, sports, and more. Plus, Larry previews tonight’s SNC show!

Highlights from this episode include:

  • “You know the theory that every character in the Winnie the Pooh series is actually a arch type of a personality?” Larry asks. American conservative politics has become “the Hundred Acre Wood. No matter what happens,” he explains, “it doesn’t matter. They’ll steal the next election anyway, only won a majority in the House,” he says that conservatives complain. Count Larry among those who want the Right to “stop dooming.”
  • “Ed, there’s off the beaten path, and then there’s so off the beaten path that you found a whole new country,” Larry says, “and that’s got to be the stunning remarks of Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana today.”
  • “It’s one thing to think of your grandparents reading an X rated book aloud to you,” I reply. “It’s almost worse — and in some ways better — to have Senator John Kennedy do this in a Senate hearing.”
  • “I don’t think you’ve lived,” I laugh, “until you’ve heard Senator John Kennedy, with his Louisiana drawl, talking about strap ons and dildos and sliding up somebody’s … er…”
  • More seriously, Larry explains why this was an important move by Senator Kennedy. “I don’t know why it’s incumbent on us to explain why we don’t want our children exposed to it without our consent,” Larry says. “I do think it should be at the head of the table, but they don’t even want us in the room when this is being discussed, let alone sitting at the table.”
  • What should we make of Susanna “Hotwifeexperience” Gibson, Democrat nominee for Virginia’s legislature? Larry and I make a lot of double entendres, but also some good points about candidate quality.
  • “It’s all those mean Republicans who are raising a hand and saying, hey, maybe this isn’t appropriate for someone who wants to be a member of the House of Delegates,” Larry says about the pushback on criticism. “And something tells me that if it were a Republican woman or a Republican man who is engaged in this behavior, maybe they would have made a big deal out of it, those Democrats.”
