Readers react to blog posts and stories from the previous issue. On Nov. 12, we reported that “Thanksgiving traffic in Orlando is going to be insanely horrible this year,” according to AAA. The auto club projects that around 54.3 million Americans will be traveling this year for the holiday, with 2.8 million Floridians adding to that number. To make matters worse, AAA says Orlando is the No. 1 Thanksgiving destination this year, to which we flippantly replied, “Thanks, Disney.” @Mickey Boyd Lots of great things to thank Disney for. Our state and local governments can be thanked for road construction that has stayed ahead of the booming population and consistent increase in tourism. Oh, right, they are quite a bit behind on being even with these things. I-4 Ultimate will most likely be outdated when it’s complete. @Seiji Schoppert So why aren’t more people pushing for better transportation options for tourists? We blame the tourists for causing traffic jams, yet the only option we provide for them is to rent a car and pray they figure out where they are going, or hire a cab. Let’s get it together, Orlando!

@Patrick M. D’Agostino <Monty Python muted shouting> Also on Nov. 12, we reported that Donald Trump and Rick Scott were calling for an end to the election recounts currently underway in Florida, alleging that, in the process, ballots went missing or had been forged. “Scott thinks it’s weird how ballots keep ‘appearing,’ as they do after every single election,” we wrote. @Nikki Desautel I think it’s weird that any Floridian would vote to keep Scott in any office for this state. @Juana De La Cruz So if the Republicans win, it is OK, but if it appears the Democrats are winning, it is fraud. Is anyone NOT disturbed all these ballots are showing up now? Why didn’t Scott do anything back in 2016, 2014 and 2012? @Jon Spooner But if he found those ballots to be on his favor, then it’s all on the up and up, right? I know people personally who were getting notices in the mail that their mail-in ballots had not been received yet. And that doesn’t even count those mailed in by service men and women from overseas.

BY MONIVETTE CORDEIRO

Florida’s recount is tiring us out, Universal raises starting pay to $12 per hour, a new auto museum is just a little bit illegal and other news you may have missed last week. »

DeSantis nails down win over Gillum as hand recount continues:

Orlando’s first medical marijuana drive-through opens: The city’s first medical marijuana drive-through celebrated its grand opening last week. The Massachusetts company Curaleaf invited patients to tour its newest East Orlando medical marijuana dispensary, which includes a drive-through window. Medical marijuana patients who are registered with the state will be able to place their orders online or via phone with the Curaleaf dispensary and pick up without leaving the car, much like picking up medicine at CVS or Walgreens. The medical marijuana company sells oil cartridges, flower pods, flower vaporizer cartridges, vaporizers, capsules and topical balms, plus offers free delivery of its products anywhere in the state. Curaleaf requires first-time patients to visit the dispensary for a private consultation before picking up their medicine in the drive-through lane.

New auto museum at Artegon Marketplace is illegal, draws city fines: Remember the defunct “anti-mall” that was partially shut down, then bought

The automatic machine recount is finally over, but the ensuing fight over the manual recount is just getting started. Democratic nominee Andrew Gillum couldn’t overcome the nearly 34,000-vote margin between himself and Republican nominee Ron DeSantis. The former Republican congressman from Ponte Vedra Beach will become Florida’s next governor, though Gillum would not initially concede, insisting that “a vote denied is justice denied – the state of Florida must count every legally cast vote.” Meanwhile, manual recounts started last week in the U.S. Senate race between Gov. Rick Scott and Democratic incumbent U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, as well as several other state races. Manual recounts are required in races where the margin is below 0.25 percent after a machine recount. In the case of the high-profile Senate race, Nelson was trailing closely behind Scott by about 12,600 votes.

by a Miami developer? Artegon Marketplace is racking up some serious fines after developer Michael Dezer’s recently assembled auto museum was found illegal by the city. City officials are currently fining Dezer $200 a day after telling the mall’s new owners they couldn’t just open a museum without proper zoning and permits for structural and indoor alterations, leading to some dismantled replicas strewn outside the mall. Orlando Weekly reached out to Dezer Development for a comment but did not receive a response. Aside from having one of the most extensive private vehicle collections in the world, Dezer’s collection also includes rare jukeboxes, antique metal signs and movie memorabilia.

Communication breakdown impeded Orlando Fire Department’s response to Pulse shooting: A review of the Orlando

Fire Department’s response to the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub found that although the agency followed protocol, breakdowns in communication hindered first responders. The independent report produced by the National Police Foundation found OFD was challenged by the “delayed arrival of executive leadership on scene, the lack of interagency communication, and outdated policies, procedures and protocols.” The review also found the agency failed to coordinate with law enforcement during the shooting, which delayed efforts to get victims to the hospital and ultimately could have played a part in the 49 deaths, and still had outdated policies for addressing the aftermath with first responders.

Universal Orlando raises starting pay to $12 per hour: Following

a win by Disney World unions to increase starting pay to $15 per hour by 2021, Universal Orlando announced last week that it would also increase its minimum wage, to $12 per hour by early 2019. Universal’s current starting pay is $10 an hour, and the company plans to implement the wage hike in February. Unlike Disney, Universal, SeaWorld and other major tourism attractions and hotels have no union contracts. Before the pay increase was announced, Disney union workers rallied outside Universal, asking the company to “do the right thing and match the union raises at Disney,” according to a press release from the UNITE HERE unions. mcordeiro@orlandoweekly.com

BLACK AND WHITE AND RED ALL OVER Orlando Sentinel goes through major leadership shake-up BY MON IVETTE COR D EI R O

he Orlando Sentinel will now share its publisher and editor-in-chief with its sister paper, the South Florida Sun Sentinel, after ousting publisher/editor-in-chief Avido Khahaifa. Chicago-based parent company Tribune Publishing announced Monday that the Sun Sentinel’s publisher and general manager, Nancy Meyer, will become the publisher of both newspapers. Similarly, Sun Sentinel editor-in-chief Julie Anderson will take over similar duties at the Orlando Sentinel and run the two papers. Both Anderson and Meyer have previous experience working in Orlando. Orlando Sentinel managing editor John Cutter is being promoted to director of news operations and standards. The papers will reportedly combine forces to create a state news team with reporters covering politics, health and the environment. “I am confident that Nancy’s and Julie’s leadership, news judgment and history of digital innovation will benefit the entire team in Florida,” said Tim Knight, president of Tribune Publishing, said to the Sun Sentinel. Tribune Publishing, known formerly by the hilarious moniker “tronc,” announced a company-wide voluntary buyout plan for employees last week – the latest of many rounds – as first reported by media watchdog Robert Feder. Khahaifa, who has been with the company since 1984 and in the role of publisher-slash-editor-in-chief in Orlando

since 2016, is leaving Tribune to “pursue other opportunities,” according to the Orlando Sentinel. Khahaifa was the newspaper’s first African American publisher. He declined to do an interview with Orlando Weekly regarding his tenure, saying that he instead preferred to “let the work we did during my run speak for me.” In 2017, the Orlando Sentinel was named a Pulitzer Prize finalist for its coverage of the mass shooting that left 49 people dead and countless injured at the gay nightclub Pulse. “Sept, 1984, first task as a Tribune employee – copy editing a piece,” Khahaifa wrote on social media. “[November] 2018, last task as a Tribune employee – copy editing a piece. Proud to say I gave everything I had, did everything I could, to make it a better company every day I worked.” One of Khahaifa’s last interviews regarding the Sentinel was for a piece by the Columbia Journalism Review examining newsroom diversity titled “Journalism’s Bad Reflection.” The CJR has pointed out in the past that despite racial and ethnic groups making up about 40 percent of the U.S. population, they account for less than 17 percent of print and online newsroom staff. The Orlando Sentinel did not provide details to the American Society of News Editors for the annual diversity survey among U.S. newsrooms, though a CJR review of the staff list found “far less than half of reporters are people of color.” In Orange County, about 31 percent of

people categorize themselves as Hispanic or Latino, while 22 percent of people indicated they are African American or black, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Africans Americans, Latinos and other people of color make up almost 60 percent of Orange County’s total population. The CJR piece also featured local LGBTQ advocates criticizing the Sentinel’s limited coverage of the city’s LGBTQ people of color after Pulse. Khahaifa declined to provide further information about makeup of the newsroom staff, according to CJR. “We have been and are always studious about the significant ethnic, age, social, political, and economic diversity of our audience and market and go to great pains to be mindful of it when making decisions of all kinds,” Khahaifa told CJR. “My reticence with regard to your project is a direct result of my experience with similar efforts, the results of which only made our task more difficult as discrete points and observations were highlighted in isolation, creating a skewed picture of just how complex our challenge is and how we approach addressing it.” After leaving the Sentinel, Khahaifa told Orlando Weekly in a statement Tuesday that he stands by his comments and that the CJR piece “reinforced and amplified” his point. Khahaifa did not respond when asked directly why the newspaper refused to submit data to the ASNE diversity survey. “[The piece] portrayed the Sentinel as an organization that ignored minorities and gay people, both in the context of the Pulse tragedy and in general; a place where minorities needed to fear speaking out about the issue of a lack of diversity,” Khahaifa said. “It did so by taking a handful of discrete points and perspectives and casting them as a full picture, one that is distorted and inaccurate. It did so while leaving out readily available facts (regardless of my willingness to be interviewed) that would make it clear that picture was inaccurate. It’s what has been done every time I’ve been approached about this topic, and it’s personally offensive to me for reasons that I would think would be visibly obvious.” In a statement to OW in response to the CJR piece, a spokesperson for Tribune Publishing said the company would “engage new audiences by providing journalism and products that will serve our increasingly diverse communities.” “We will seek out, value and support diversity in both the audiences that we serve and, in our workplace, where we are committed to producing opportunity for all,” Tribune spokesperson Marisa Kollias said. mcordeiro@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Attitude of gratitude Since we don’t always tell the whole truth around the family table, here’s the real stuff we’re thankful for in 2018

ORLA N D O W EEKLY ED I TOR I A L STA F F A N D CO N TR I B U TO R S

hether you’re spending Thanksgiving with family, with friends (aka “chosen family”), at work or all alone, it’s a good time to take stock. Whether you’re living in abundance and have a 20-pound turkey on the table, or you’re eating a turkey sandwich and happy to get it, Thanksgiving is the day we should all look around with appreciation for whatever we do have. If you’re having trouble thinking of blessings – it has been a tough couple of years for almost everyone – maybe some of the ones we count here will help jolt you into that attitude of gratitude. One thing every one of us at Orlando Weekly appreciates, from the writers and editors to the sales department to the production staff to the drivers, is you. Even when you hate what we produce (but especially when you love it and take the time to let us know), all of us are boundlessly grateful for your attention, and for the chance to do our best for you every week.

I am grateful for cancer. Here’s why:

1) The recognition and acceptance of my own mortality. It’s a true gift. It is confining, but only because time is confining. In more ways, it is freeing to no longer fear time. 2) Five-hour chemotherapy sessions accompanied by best girlfriends who took full PTO days to spend in an infusion center (instead of on the beach or with their families), or brought puzzles and games and gossip and iced coffee to fill the luxuriant brunchtime hours with some of the best company. 3) Taking deep, controlled breaths on the radiation table in a dark room in the middle of a hectic workday – it felt like yoga. 4) The ability to listen to my body in a new and more attuned way, even if I don’t like what it’s saying. (Mostly, “Bitch, slow down.”) 5) The clarity of knowing which friends show up for you when chips are down and which run away, not to be heard from until the chips return to their less-scary, elevated state. 6) My punctual, smiling mail carrier, who not only brings the medical bills, but also packages from family and friends far away, full of organic small-batch moisturizer, Starbucks gift cards and turmeric teas. 7) A case-closed reason to be late/leave early/not go to events or meetings. 8) The ability, now, to hold someone’s hand in their scariest, darkest, most vulnerable moments and tell them that I’ve been there, I am (sometimes) still there, and there is beauty there, too. 9) A complete understanding of what “the only way out is through” actually means. 10) My increasing comfort with vulnera14

bility, which has deepened my relationships immeasurably. 11) A new comfort with the word “MIRACULOUS,” which science and medicine both are. 12) Freedom to spend my money the way I want, instead of squirreling it away constantly “for a rainy day.” It’s raining. Buy the Louboutins. 13) The dozens of women who “came out” to me as also having survived breast cancer, and who hugged me long and hard, like we’d known each other for years, even if we’d met just five minutes ago. 14) A reason to eat super-sweet or supersalty junk foods (the only thing that tasted good during chemo), the eating of which at any other point in my life would otherwise have led to self-destructive guilt. 15) Reaffirmation that I married the right person, who maintains that I look the same as I did before my diagnosis, and never bats an eyelash at my 30 pounds of steroid weight, lack of eyebrows or swollen cankles. 16) Today, and every day after it. – Holly V. Kapherr

I’m thankful for the greatness of America.

God, it would be so easy to be cynical or even full-on nihilistic right now. But I’m lucky. And as a first-gen immigrant whose family landed here with a baby bag and a single dollar, I never forget it. So even when things don’t go my way – or, say, plummet straight into the abyss – I remember that I can try again next election, and every election after it. You see, I’ve always believed in the greatness of America not because of some cheap sloganeering but because I’m the living product of it. It’s allowed me to have the extraordinary life that I do. I’m raising my own mixed family that’s the most beautiful

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● NOV. 21-27, 2018 ● orlandoweekly.com

thing I’ve ever seen and I am surrounded by a rainbow of people who beam intellect, creativity and decency. This is not all of America, I know. But few places on Earth can cultivate this kind of forward society on this scale. Try to imagine looking at the expanse of all that bounty and privilege with the fresh eyes of someone who wasn’t born into it. Then you’ll see the kind of duty I feel toward that ideal when I put hand over heart. – Bao Le-Huu

I appreciate the little things.

There’s a quote I keep getting, written on the inside wrapper of my dark chocolate Dove squares, that says, “Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.” It’s a bit of wisdom that’s right up there with “Life is a journey, not a destination” or that poster with the cat dangling from a tree: “Hang in there.” It’s a bit of sweet candy philosophy that reminds me that life is about balance and that the scale has to tip to Good sooner or later. What it also says to me is that sometimes it’s the little things in life that can be the most beautiful or inspiring. That first cup of coffee in the morning; listening to a song that gives you chills at the base of your neck; feeling transported while watching a band play a perfect set; and the absolute best thing: closing out every night cuddling with the woman you love and the cat you both adore. When life kicks my ass the hardest, it’s these moments I’m most thankful for. – Jen Cray

I’m thankful for the creativity of friends. Also, Elvira.

The last time I was asked to relay what I was thankful for – over 20 years ago – in any sort of public setting was during a Thanksgiving dinner with extended family.

I breezily replied that I was thankful that I had Morrissey tickets for next weekend and that Bill Clinton had been elected … and since there was a right-winger or two on hand, that was the end of that particular tradition. Along those same lines (because I haven’t matured a whit), this year I’m thankful that I got to meet Elvira. Seeing her on TV’s Bloopers and Practical Jokes in elementary school was my personal David Bowie on Top of the Pops epiphany, and it’s a feeling I’ve never really gotten over. It was humbling to be granted an audience with the queen. This is as close as I get to a spiritual pilgrimage. I’m thankful Jill Flanagan (Forced Into Femininity) trusted me enough to let me release an album of her work on my label; it’s a harrowing and beautiful set of songs that was a privilege to be involved with. I’m thankful for everyone who played and supported the Tropical Depression darkwave festival: two evenings of pure joy and love paradoxically couched in sad and melancholy sounds. Maybe we’ll do it again. And I’m thankful I had the privilege of knowing Zach Ferguson – you were so inspiring to me when I was a clueless total amateur, trying to figure out the DIY music maze. Thinking about those early, terrifying Game Show sets still stops me in my tracks. You will be missed so much. – Matthew Moyer

I revel in my giant TV, dammit.

While it’s impossible – or maybe just boring – to list all of the things I’m thankful for this year (shout-out to my family), I’m going to go straight-up American materialist and talk about my TV for a minute. I splurged on a 55-inch 4K HDR television this summer, and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made in recent years. I get to watch the world burn – figuratively and literally – in the highest visual fidelity

available, and when that gets too depressing, I can escape into Xbox or PlayStation games that nearly encompass my entire field of vision. Plus, I have an excuse to spend the extra money on the 4K version of movies. Does it make a difference? Sure, why not. Take your escapes where you can. – Thaddeus McCollum

I’m thankful that the moral arc of the universe bends toward justice.

I’m thankful that peppermint mocha Frappuccinos are back at Starbucks this year for hopefully another successful holiday season, and that the U.S. legal system is a complex structure where the “wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine,” as the proverb goes, leading to a tedious process of lawsuit after lawsuit against a presidential administration seemingly determined to preserve white supremacy and the patriarchy by attempting to strip civil rights from transgender and gender-nonconforming people; rip migrant children from their families; and ban the entry of people from predominantly Muslim countries – ultimately proving Unitarian abolitionist Theodore Parker’s theory that we don’t need to calculate the curves, twists and seeming dead-ends in the moral arc of the universe because we unconsciously know it will eventually bend itself toward justice someday, even though we might not be here to see it. Fuck those stupid, orange, obnoxious … PSLs. – Monivette Cordeiro

I’m thankful for Orlando Weekly.

What am I grateful for? This publication and the writers they support. Yeah, go ahead and roll your eyes, but the talented scribes Orlando Weekly gives voice to are what – or who – I’m thankful for. The gutsy manner in which they call bullshit on

our political, cultural, culinary and tourism institutions, and the impact their words have on our community, is of paramount importance. Their takes – clever, funny, defiant and unabashedly honest – provide a potent antidote to the staid mold of reportage dominating the city’s landscape. And I’m just grateful to be a part of it. – Faiyaz Kara

I treasure my memories of seeing Lana Del Rey.

I’m thankful for my loving partner, our wonderful cat son, and the life we share together in a home surrounded by the music, books and films we love. I’m thankful for the chance to experience music in a live setting, and I’ll always cherish my memories of the Lana Del Rey concert at Amway Center earlier this year. After missing her tour several years ago, I didn’t know if I’d ever have another chance to see the queen in all her glory. Luckily, I did – and it was perfect. I’m also thankful for the endless opportunities to express myself through writing, which has not only afforded me a means to live but also an outlet to another world when my own is not enough. Lastly, red wine. – Tyler Barney

I’m thankful for the existence of Leonard Cohen’s most hated album.

This November marks the two-year anniversary of the death of Mr. Leonard Cohen. In the time since his passing, I’ve undergone a conversion experience: from disbeliever to total acolyte. (Before you scoff, please consider that my generation’s first exposure to LC was via the inclusion of the Rufus Wainwright cover of “Hallelujah” on the Shrek soundtrack.) I’m thankful that I’ve seen the light, surely, and this Thanksgiving season I’d like to gather the family around the dinner table, hand-

in-hand, to sing the praises of 1977’s Death of a Ladies’ Man. Arguably Cohen’s most hated release (ever, of all time), the Phil Spectororchestrated blaze of glory is complete and total bacchanal, eight tracks of both Spector and Cohen’s most hedonistic impulses. Spector goes full Wall of Sound and then some; Cohen warbles on about voyeuristic experiences (a cheap hotel room, a high school dance) over some 30 musicians and 17 backup singers. Depending on how that sounds to you, Death of a Ladies’ Man is either the worst or the very, very best. Sit around the fire for coffee and dessert, put on “Don’t Go Home With Your HardOn,” and ask your second cousin what she thinks. – Madeleine Scott

I’m grateful I circumvented the affordable housing crisis.

In terms of available affordable housing, the Orlando metropolitan area is the nation’s second worst, according to a 2018 report form the National Low Income Housing Coalition. It’s so bad, in fact, that there are only 17 rental units available for every 100 low-income renters; local renters need to earn almost $34,000 a year just to afford a studio apartment; and those who are paid the mere $8.25 per hour minimum wage the state offers have to work as many as 84 hours a week on average just to make ends meet. Those numbers are awful for a region that’s supposed to be on the cultural come-up. Evidently, the boom only benefits the endowed few. Luckily, I may be an underpaid writer but I’ve weaseled my way into living alone in a two-bedroom house in a quiet neighborhood for just $800 a month, all bills paid including utilities and cable. I’m easy to hate for that reason – I get it. Financial envy, especially when it comes to housing, can be a powerful thing. But I hope your deal of a lifetime – at least when it orlandoweekly.com

comes to finding a decent place to live in Central Florida – is right around the corner too. – Xander Peters

I’m thankful to be alive in a city full of artists.

For me, this past fall has been full of fatalities, from my mother-in-law – who passed away in October after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer – to my iPhone, which became overexcited at SeaWorld and leapt from Kraken’s tallest loop. So first and foremost, I’m thankful that I, my wife Genevieve and our cat, Brubeck, are all (mostly) healthy with a minimally leaking roof over our heads. I’m also grateful that I live in a city overflowing with passionate artists who are creating groundbreaking entertainment every day, whether at small independent venues or world-class theme parks. And most of all, I’m grateful to Orlando Weekly and its readers for allowing me the opportunity to write about those shows and attractions, because otherwise I could never afford to attend them. – Seth Kubersky

I’m grateful For Ink and paper.

I was raised on the aphorism, “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst,” but I’m always surprised when people think that’s a pessimistic attitude. It taught me to be grateful every day for the things that could be taken away at any time: my eyesight, my hearing (though that’s on its way out), my working hands and legs and heart, my loved ones. Planned Parenthood, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, libraries (shout-out to the OCLS MAYL system), my passport. Cool days. Clean water. A soft place to sleep. The four-color CMYK printing process, every magazine I’ve ever loved, and this job, which lets me play in the world of ink and paper. You. – Jessica Bryce Young feedback@orlandoweekly.com NOV. 21-27, 2018 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

In which we seek a sneak peek of fun’s future at this year’s IAAPA Expo

BY SETH KUBERSKY IAAPA EXPO | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY

Like San Diego’s Comic-Con is Gardens Tampa in 2019; Aquatica is getting for superheroes, and Las Vegas’ CES is for electronics, Orlando’s ever-expanding IAAPA Expo – held last week at the Orange County Convention Center – is the worldwide theme park industry’s biggest annual convention. In honor of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions’ 100th anniversary, I walked almost half a marathon around their show floor, covering countless press conferences seeking a sneak peek of fun’s future. After a dozen years of attending the show, I’ve given up on trying to predict which proposed products will become blockbusters and learned to simply embrace the surreal spectacle. After all, this year’s most popular photo op was an inflatable bounce house shaped like a giant poop emoji. And the video I tweeted that went viral (7,000-plus views in the first 24 hours) wasn’t of some new roller coaster or advanced animatronic … but of a guy in an inflatable Tyrannosaurus Rex costume running Adventure Solutions’ ninja warrior obstacle course. Welcome to 2018. Universal and Disney don’t exhibit at IAAPA (through Disney Parks chairman Bob Chapek showed off the spinning cars for Epcot’s Guardians of the Galaxy “storytelling coaster” during a breakfast presentation), but SeaWorld Parks made major announcements for Central Florida. Premier Rides opens Tigris, which will be Florida’s tallest launch coaster, at Busch

KareKare Curl, a ProSlide family raft ride with a vertical wave wall; and SeaWorld’s upcoming Sesame Street area will include a Super Grover’s Box Car Derby kiddie ride from Zierer. Unfortunately, if you want to ride Sally Corp.’s interactive Sesame Street dark ride (starring a flocked and feathered Big Bird animatronic), you’ll have to fly to PortAventura World in Spain. Legoland Florida lifted the curtain on their Lego Movie World expansion, which will add several new Bricksburgbased attractions. The land’s headliner will be Masters of Flight, the first m-Ride by Brogent Technologies. This domed-screen flight simulator – which will be themed to Emmet’s Triple Decker Couch – is similar to Disney’s Soarin’, but the seats rotate into position rather than lifting off the floor, which should be less scary for kids (or parents) who are afraid of heights. A new five-story, 150-room hotel is also on its way to the Winter Haven resort. VR and 4D reached an apex last year, and 2018 brought a raft of ridiculously off-brand virtual ride platforms, including knockoff Tron lightcycles and shuddering egg-shaped seats. There were a few innovative advances on display, like Ultrahaptics’ virtual touch projectors that let you feel invisible objects, and “Rabbids Team Battle” from Triotech and Ubisoft, where dozens of players compete simultaneously to shoot crazed bunnies.

IAAPA’s best VR experience was actually outside the expo at Pointe Orlando, where Nomadic’s first permanent location has just opened. Founder Doug Griffin formerly worked for ILM on Star Wars and Harry Potter films, and his attention to cinematic detail is evident in “Arizona Sunshine,” a zombie apocalypse adventure inspired by the popular SteamVR title. Nomadic’s tactile effects – not only wind and vibration, but physical objects from pizza crusts to corpses – are as immersive or better than The Void at Disney Springs, and the visuals and puzzles are far superior to Main Event’s Zero Latency VR, my pick back in 2016. This year’s crop of arcade coin-ops relied heavily on familiar names from the past. Unis’ magnet-driven physical “Pong,” last year’s hit created by crowdfunded hobbyists, returned in classic cocktail table form, while the new machines – “Tomb Raider,” “Halo,” “Rampage,” “House of the Dead” – are all reboots of decades-old titles. For fresh ideas in gaming, look to escape rooms like Hero League: Attack of the Cyber Titan, the debut experience from Orlando-based Mobile Escapes. Creative director Dan Carro (who attraction fans may know from Gatorland or Old Town’s Legends haunt) guided me through two superheroic adventures filled with moving hydraulics and multimedia effects, all cleverly crammed into a single-wide trailer. This one stood out not only for portability, but for logical puzzles that require communication and teamwork instead of obscure trivia or dumb luck. Finally, at every IAAPA I’m wowed by the latest award-winning concept from Dynamic Attractions, which has a development facility here in Orlando. Frustratingly, whether it’s a circular moving theater or self-driving off-road vehicle, few of their recent pitches have come to fruition. The good news is that Dynamic’s latest invention – the “Dual Power Coaster,” a launched motion-base coaster that looks like a cross between Disney’s Dinosaur and Test Track ride systems – is actually opening next year at an undisclosed Malaysian park; my guess is 20th Century Fox World. Better yet, their long-gestating Mission Ferrari SFX coaster (think Gringotts on steroids) and Batman: Knight Flight robotic arm dark ride are both nearing completion in Abu Dhabi, and a new partnership with old-school carnival manufacturer Chance Rides will help them finish future projects quicker. Looks like 2019 might be the year for me to finally book that trip to the UAE. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Desserts include seasonal offerings like apple crisp. Don’t worry, steak lovers: The restaurant will also offer its everyday menu in case a filet sounds better than a drumstick.

Metro Diner All Orlando locations of the vintage-style “greasy spoon” will offer a Thanksgiving special at breakfast, just in case you can’t wait for dinner for traditional faves: a stuffing waffle topped with turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy, served with a side of cranberry sauce. The restaurant will close at 2 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day so employees can enjoy the holiday with their families. (metrodiner.com)

Morimoto Asia Try an Asian-American fusion option for Thanksgiving this year, under the stunning chandeliers.

The Oceanaire Seafood Room The I-Drive temple of seafood will offer a stuffed turkey roulade special on Thanksgiving Day, filled with sage-cranberry stuffing and accompanied by mashed potatoes, homemade cranberry chutney and a seasonal vegetable for $39.

Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant This year’s offering at the Irish restaurant at Disney Springs includes herb-roasted turkey with gravy, duck fat potato roasties, Brussels sprouts, apple and sage stuffing, and cranberry-plum chutney for $28 for adults, $14 for kids.

SELAM ETHIOPIAN & ERITREAN CUISINE

The city’s second Ethiopian restaurant offers diners another option to get handsy with their food. Of note is an explosive doro wat, a thick crimson stew reddened by the addition of berbere, a potent powdered spice blend and staple of Ethiopian cooking. Tear off pieces of spongy injera and enjoy. Ye beg tibs (a sauté of lamb) and raw beef kitfo heavily essenced with cardamom are two others to pay heed to. There are plenty of options for veg diners. Pair it all with tej, a sweet honey mead beverage. Open daily. 5494 Central Florida Parkway, 407-590-4571; $$

BEM BOM ON CORRINE

Lengthy delays and cost overruns aside, Bem Bom’s brick-and-mortar operation in Audubon Park has become a true destination. Diners come for the Portuguese, Mexican and Mexiguese fare, particularly succulent and well-spiced chicken piri piri, grilled chouriço, fiery carnitas tacos, center-cut salted cod, and tender carne asada with chimichurri. Items are being added to the menu with each passing week, so be on the lookout for grilled sardines with cabbage curtido and pastel de bacalhau. Closed Monday. 3101 Corrine Drive, 407-960-5101; $$

THE H CUISINE

Turkish steakhouse has a flair for tableside theatrics à la Salt Bae, but there’s no denying the quality cuts and showstopping preparations, be it a 28-day dryaged, bone-in ribeye or luscious “chateau filet” for two finished in a butter-pooled hot plate. Steak tartare blended with bone marrow starts things off in a properly beefy manner, though a salad of goat cheese, walnuts and pomegranate-studded vinaigrette is just as gratifying. Strozzapreti finished inside a flaming Parmesan wheel fuses gusto with gimmick. Don’t overlook the intriguing Turkish desserts. Open daily. 7512 Dr. Phillips Blvd., 407-930-3020; $$$$

LE COQ AU VIN

Venerated restaurant has lost much of its luster over the years, though its menu of classic French cuisine (with dishes that miss the mark more often than not) are still as pricey as ever. Two dishes that are worth a look: the namesake coq au vin and canard done two ways – as a crispy leg confit and a sliced duck breast scented with lavender and honey. Closed Mondays. 4800 S.

TASTE OF CHENGDU

Sichuan specialties keep things appropriately fiery at this comfy West Colonial Drive restaurant, but it’s the skill of chef-owner Xiong “Tiger” Tang, former executive chef of Zen at the Omni Orlando Resort, that has Chinese food enthusiasts abuzz. What to order? Really, anything – but the pan-fried pompano concealed under a heap of triple chili pepper, peanuts and a five-spice sauce, or the spicy whole lobster hacked and reassembled with its carapace adorned in an alluring mix of chilies, peppercorns, garlic and cilantro are both great places to start. 2030 W. Colonial Drive, 407-839-1983; $$$

BIG TIME STREET FOOD

Big Time Street Food shares an interior door with Burton’s, one of Thornton Park’s most popular watering holes, but whether you’re buzzed or not, this food is good. Not just good; it’s loud, brash and ultraextra. The Holy Fried Chicken Sandwich is a sinner’s version of Chick-fil-A’s spicy chicken-on-a-bun, and the Chorizo Montoya burger is edible chef porn: a grilled chorizo patty on top of a regular burger, plus cheese, cubed avocado and fried onions. It’s excessive. It’s craveable. It’s the Cardi B of hangover snacks. 805 E. Washington St., 407-801-5464; $$

JINYA RAMEN BAR

Decor is minimalist and food comes out fast and piping hot at this Los Angelesbased chain ramen-ya. The signature Jinya Tonkotsu Black ramen, a flavorful pork broth accented by a slick of unctuous fat, is stuffed with nori sheets, tender seared pork belly, a whole seasoned egg, kikurage seaweed and fried garlic – and toothsome noodles, of course. Tokyo curry rice and crispy-creamy octopus fritters are also best bets, if you’re going broth-free. 8 N. Summerlin Ave., 407-704-1825; $$

THE NOBLE SMOKESMAN

The Noble Smokesman does a bustling lunch business, and that’s good since they only serve the one meal. We didn’t love the sandwich or the mac & cheese we tried on our first visit, but the three smoked-meat tacos on our second visit knocked our socks off; the Birdhouse (barbecue chicken with smoked tomatillo salsa, pickled onions, cilantro cream and a generous sprinkling of queso fresco) was our favorite. The inch-high mini cakes are also not to be missed. 6925 Lake Ellenor Drive, 407-630-6223; $

SAPORITO ORGANIC BAKERY & KITCHEN

While the restaurant hews to the Slow Food ideology in the kitchen, nothing about the front-of-house service at Saporito is too leisurely. The breads, pizzas and desserts make it clear there are some master bakers here, and finding a true bacon-egg-and-cheese carbonara is ecstasy-inducing. But what really makes Saporito Organic Bakery & Kitchen special is the owners’ relationships with their customers; this place feels like home. 2759 Old Winter Garden Road, Ocoee, 407-554-2100; $$ n

his character’s complexities. Never reducing his erudite, slightly snobby character to one-dimensionality, Ali gives us perhaps his best performance ever. (That’s saying something after Moonlight and House of Cards.) And in the supporting role of Vallelonga’s wife, Linda Cardellini (Freaks and Geeks, Bloodline) adds even more tenderness and relatability. Written by Farrelly, Brian Hayes Currie and Nick Vallelonga (Anthony Vallelonga’s son), the film treads somewhat familiar waters in its second act. But just when you think you’ve sussed its direction, it comes up with another surprise. And with a pleasant score by Kris Bowers – along with one of the year’s catchiest soundtracks – you’ll marvel at how fast the 130 minutes fly. In the movie’s most surprising and raw moment, Shirley confronts Vallelonga after the latter – in one of his few moments of cultural insight – suggests that, socially and economically, he might actually be more “black” than Shirley. “So if I’m not black enough and if I’m not white enough, then tell me, Tony, what am I?” Shirley laments. Though that question might be too complicated for a two-hour dramedy, it still deserves to be asked, even by the codirector of Dumb and Dumber and There’s Something About Mary. Good on you, Farrelly. That’ll teach us to judge Book by its cover.

Ralph Breaks the Internet BY ST EVE SCHN EID ER

THIS WEEK: Bodied Remember when George Harrison started producing films because he had money and a great sense of humor, and he knew his buddies in Monty Python had the latter but not the former? Well, Eminem is producing pictures now, and also advancing a pet cause: defending “offensive” rap. That’s the focus of this comedy-drama about a kid who becomes a battle rapper while researching a graduate thesis on the subject. A hit at the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival, Bodied is even timelier today, thanks to the recent flap over Em’s everquestionable diss tracks. Gee, it’s almost like he planned it or something. (R; tentatively scheduled to open Friday at Enzian Theater, Maitland) Creed 2 Filmmaker Ryan Coogler was too busy with Black Panther to return for the sequel to Creed, but actor Michael B. Jordan managed to finesse his schedule in a way that allowed him to reprise his starring role. This time, Adonis Creed goes up against Viktor Drago, the son of the guy who murdered Adonis’ dad in the ring back in Rocky IV. The real-life Romanian boxer and kickboxer who’s been cast as Viktor seems to be there largely to supply the answer to a future Jeopardy question – that answer being “Who is Florian Munteanu?” Damn, I think I already just forgot. (PG-13)

quaint this dramatization of that whole unfortunate imbroglio. No time for reshoots, folks – though you can bet the studio would have found time had Hart been played by Kevin Spacey. Instead, we’ve got good old uncontroversial Hugh Jackman in the role. And direction by Jason Reitman, whose shepherding of the great Thank You for Smoking raises hopes that this film, too, might be more astute than most. Or my name isn’t Willie Horton. (R) Ralph Breaks the Internet To find out what our Thaddeus McCollum thought of this sequel to Wreck-It Ralph, log on to orlandoweekly. com. For my part, I’ll merely point out that the voice cast includes Orlando’s own GloZell Green, one of the first actors to play Storm at Islands of Adventure, now famous for her YouTube interview with Barack Obama. And also for having me as a guest at her wedding back in ’00. (Think carefully about which of those things impresses you more, because it’s going to determine where you send your Christmas list this year.) (PG)

Robin Hood What’s the consolation prize for getting somewhere after both Kevin Costner and Mel Brooks have been there already? The anemic opening-weekend box office that’s going to be earned by this umpteenth take on the Robin Hood legend. Selling points include direction by the guy who made the first episode of Black Mirror and a lead The Front-Runner Last month’s revelation that performance by that dude who was in the Lee Atwater had engineered the supposed Kingsman movies. You know, the one who’s sex scandal that derailed Gary Hart’s 1988 about to play Elton John. “You mean Florian presidential campaign immediately renders Munteanu?” Sure, close enough.

I think there has been an effort recently to put together more eclectic tours,” says Devora. “And a lot of people tell us we’ve exposed them to something they hadn’t heard before, and that’s really cool! Performance-wise, it’s definitely changed us. Watching the way some of these bands command the stage has influenced our own energy.” I wouldn’t expect stage diving or a mosh pit to erupt while they’re onstage, but having caught the band earlier this year when they played the Social with Pianos Become the Teeth, I can promise you that it’s well worth the effort to arrive early enough to catch their set … but only if you dig jangly guitars, vocals drenched in reverb and a sound that makes you smile.

DIET CIG AT 11ELEVEN FEST | PHOTO BY JEN CRAY

This

week,

music

happenings in Parramore and a sensory odyssey by an Orlando original.

11ELEVEN FEST, BROKEN CAULDRON BREWERY, NOV. 11

It sure was exciting to be checking out music in Parramore again for the second time in a week. Earlier it was Tommy Mot’s new frontiers over at Stonewall. A few days later and a couple blocks down was 11Eleven Fest, the highly number-themed event (the date, the bands, etc.) organized by eminent Orlando events groups Shows I Go To and Montgomery Drive. The ambitious all-day music party featured a musical lineup that was eclectic, sometimes to the point of being bizarre. But among the 11 bands (theming!) on the bill, the organizers did pull a couple of big coups for a small, unestablished festival by landing legit indie stars like excellent Hardly Art act Ian Sweet and breakout Frenchkiss Records band Diet Cig, whose closing performance was as jubilant and life-affirming a finale as they come. The event was on the scale of a block party and was done with good production and logistics. Between a remarkably professional stage with good sound, comedians in the taproom, food vendors, art installations and a custom band-themed drink menu, 11Eleven Fest made great use of the brewery grounds and open-air back lot to create a complete festival atmosphere. Individually, SIGT and Montgomery Drive are enterprising scene figures definitely trying to do some good stuff around here. Together their forces are exponential. Besides bringing live music to people, the GOOOAAALLL of the festival was to provide 1,111 soccer balls

11Eleven was on the scale of a block party with good production and logistics. And Diet Cig’s closing set was as jubilant and life-affirming a finale as they come (more theming!) to children in need, including those in the immediate Parramore neighborhood, through the Orlando City Foundation. To that end, they organized a sizable event with solid bones. Although I’m the last to advocate for boring homogeneity, more clarity and unity of vision – as well as evenness of quality – in the musical lineup would’ve served the festival better. Still, it was a good local production that packed a lot of heart and punched above its weight. And zooming out, it’s great to feel some new music energy coming from downtown’s west side.

STEVEN HEAD, IN-BETWEEN SERIES, NOV. 12

Accomplished Orlando experimentalist Steven Head is equally known for turbocharging notable bands like Acoqui and Moon Jelly with his guitars as he is for his solo electronic work in projects such as White Sands. In Head’s evolution, however, that two-sided interest has become less and less about duality than it is about avant-garde synthesis. Merging both guitar and electronics, his latest work “Dream Rhythm” was a journey of texture and state. The performance opened with new-age washes that began as

microscopic meditations, blossomed to new sonic dawns and sometimes evaporated on down to ghostly impressionism. Throughout, the scale and intensity ebbed and flowed from climax to relief, showcasing otherworldly frequencies and even some occasional beats, a feature that’s not always a pillar of Head’s solo work. Making it a truly plunging experience was that the upstairs auditorium was lit only by projections of organically undulating visuals by David Levesque of Levek fame. And although the performance spanned only a compact 30 minutes, it was an uninterrupted half-hour expedition of constantly unfolding audio and video that reaffirmed Head as a true sonic architect and voyager. One great addition to the event was a post-show Q&A with the artist, which yielded revelations that ranged from theoretical to technical. It’s a component that could be especially enlightening with the kind of experimental and art music that’s on spotlight at this series in particular and should really be done any time the artist is game. Also noteworthy, though perhaps not surprising considering the range and caliber of Head’s contributions in the Orlando music scene, is how star-studded the turnout was. Among those in attendance were luminaries from across the scene including members of very distinguished acts like Elizabeth A. Baker, Telethon, Acoqui and Broken Machine Films. Even prominent Orlando urban sketch artist Thomas Thorspecken was there live-sketching the event. This is the kind of special intersection that happens at the In-Between Series, which remains reliably artistic and unafraid to be out on the fringe. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Miracle on Orange HOLIDAY

GINGERBREAD FLIP PHOTO BY MELISSA HOM

’Tis the season! If you’ve been nice, you can rest smugly assured in the knowledge that Santa’s bringing you the goods. But if you’ve been naughty, you might as well keep living it up, and there’s no more seasonally appropriate spot than Miracle on Orange, the holiday pop-up bar taking over the Courtesy for the next six weeks. The menu is aggressively cheery and boozy, full of cocktails like the Gingerbread Flip (bourbon, gingerbread syrup, Elemakule tiki bitters, whole egg, nutmeg) and the Run Run Rudolph (prosecco, gin, mulled wine puree and lemon). There are even classes each Saturday from 5-6:30 p.m. so you can learn to re-create the magic elixir. Yes, Virginia, I am hung over. – Jessica Bryce Young

Ghost MUSIC

In the same way that K.I.S.S. took the genderfuckery and sleaze of the New York Dolls and the Stooges and repackaged it for the suburbs and schools of Middle America, so has Ghost added a savvy theatrical sheen to the occult shadows of black metal, and reaped the grim benefits. Headman Tobias Forge may have jettisoned a good portion of his bandmates recently, but it hasn’t hampered the commercial momentum of this gaggle of ghouls in the least. And on – appropriately – Black Friday, Ghost will be holding court at the Dr. Phillips Center for a night of pure rock drama. Pro tip: Take the nearest available grandparent. – Matthew Moyer 8 p.m. | Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave. | 844-513-2014 | drphillipscenter.org | $39.50-$225

Folk Yeah, Vol. 3 MUSIC

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK 34

Over the past two years, this celebration and gathering of singer-songwriters organized by distinguished local roots rocker (and rising photographer) Mike Dunn has quietly become a warm post-Thanksgiving Orlando tradition. This year, however, it’s gone full big bang. What was a single-day, one-venue affair has suddenly mushroomed to a three-day festival that will cover the entire Will’s Pub complex. The first day of the run, “Folk Yeah Electric,” kicks off on Black Friday with notable bands like Day Joy, Someday River and Richard Sherfey & All God’s Children rocking an outdoor stage and solo artists inside Lil Indies. Across four stages from noon until last call, Saturday is a blockbuster marathon featuring an army of acts including Hannah Harber & the Lionhearts, Gasoline Heart, Kaleigh Baker and, of course, Mike Dunn & the Company. Finally, “Folk Yeah Hangover” concludes things with a Sunday comedown featuring more relaxed performances at Indies and Dirty Laundry. With a horn of plenty spilling over with more than 70 acts, this year’s Folk Yeah is a total blowout of folk, rock & roll and soul. – Bao Le-Huu 5 p.m. Friday, noon Saturday, 5 p.m. Sunday | Will’s Pub, 1042 N. Mills Ave. | willspub.org | $15-$25

Fusion Fest EVENTS

Don’t let the cringe-worthy tagline of “It’s Diversitastic!” steer you away from Fusion Fest. The city’s newest two-day multicultural festival celebrates Orlando’s diverse population with a kaleidoscopic mix of music, dance, film, fashion, poetry, food and a parade – catch African drums and Scottish bagpipes at the same time as the Chinese lion dance and the Brazilian samba. This gathering of nations, so to speak, features the intricate traditions that make each culture unique and showcases their influence on Central Florida’s regional identity. Come and represent your heritage! – Monivette Cordeiro noon-sunset | Seneff Arts Plaza, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave. | fusionfest.org | free

Michael Parallax MUSIC

The prodigal returns! Whereas usually the holidays bring a cavalcade of returning faces from your past that you’d really rather avoid, sometimes the universe throws you a bone. In this case, electro freak wizard Michael Parallax – currently living in Austin, but very much a local outsider legend – has announced a lastminute show this weekend. Parallax’s performative sense of pomp and circumstance, welded to an uncanny knack for a perfect pop hook made his shows the stuff of sweaty, underground legend. A set from 2012’s Total Bummer was choice, and hell, we saw him on an off night in Jacksonville years back and he had the whole audience happily doing synchronized dances. Rouse yourself from your tryptophan daze and end the holiday weekend right. – MM with Absolute Fantasy, Mother Juno | 9 p.m. | The Falcon, 819 E. Washington St. | thefalconbar.com | 407-423-3060 | $5

Atmosphere MUSIC

Minnesota’s Twin Cities have a strong tradition of musical glory in the rock arena – Prince, Hüsker Dü, the Replacements – but the kings of the Minneapolis/St. Paul hiphop scene are undoubtedly Atmosphere. MC Slug and producer Ant have been together for more than 20 years, turning out highly personal, backpacker hip-hop tracks that eschew posturing in favor of introspection. The material has matured along with the duo; one of the songs on latest album Mi Vida Local is a sex rap that acknowledges the struggle of parents to find the time, energy and space to squeeze in a quickie. Life goes on. – Thaddeus McCollum with Dem Atlas, the Lioness, DJ Keezy | 7 p.m. | The Beacham, 46 N. Orange Ave. | 407-246-1419 | thebeacham.com | $22.50-$25

Elton John MUSIC

One of the world’s best-selling music artists, Elton John – or more accurately, Sir Elton John, if you’re English – is coming to town, and he’s bringing his award-winning discography with him. Now 71 years old, he’s compiled a résumé that spans across generations, consisting of some of the world’s most popular hits, including “Candle in the Wind,” “Bennie and the Jets,” “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” and “Crocodile Rock.” It’s also part of the music king’s farewell tour – scheduled to end in 2021. So go out and see him while you can, because he won’t be around forever – just, you know, three more years. And while you’re there, make sure you sing along: “Hold me closer, tiny dancer. Count the headlights on the highway …” You get it. – Xander Peters 8 p.m. | Amway Center, 400 W. Church St. | amwaycenter.com | $204-$2,869

Cult Classics: Unbreakable FILM

When M. Night Shyamalan’s Split came out in 2016, no one knew that the thriller – starring James McAvoy as a man with severe dissociative identity disorder who kidnaps three girls – was a low-key sequel to 2000’s Unbreakable. Glass, the film that ties the trilogy together, comes out in January 2019, which means it’s a good time to revisit the first installment, which stars Bruce Willis as a suspiciously accident-immune security guard and Samuel L. Jackson as a brittle man convinced that superheroes exist. It was underrated upon its release, but DVD sales propelled it into the status of “cult classic” once people were able to appreciate the meticulous shot composition and cerebral, low-action take on the superhero genre. – Thaddeu McCollum 9:30 p.m. | Enzian Theater, 1300 S.

NOV. 21-27, 2018 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

B Y D A N S AVA G E I’m in a pickle. All I want is to experience touch, intimacy and sexual pleasure – but without freaking out. I grew up with a lot of negative messages from men due to developing early, as well as having some other physical/sexual trauma (no rape or abuse), but the combination has me seriously fucked up. Whenever I get close to physical intimacy with someone, I run away. I actually faked an emergency once and physically ran away because I knew sex was a possibility that night. I’m not a virgin – but in those instances, I’ve been really drunk (and experienced no emotional/physical pleasure). This is not what I want for my life. I want a relationship and love, and to be open and comfortable with someone expressing their care for me in a physical way without panicked thoughts flooding my brain. I’ve done lots of therapy, which has helped, but not enough. I recently heard of something called a sexual surrogate. From what I understand, it’s somebody who is trained to therapeutically provide physical touch and intimacy in a controlled and safe environment. Are they legit? She Can’t Adequately Release Extreme Dread Sexual surrogates are legit, SCARED, but please don’t call them sexual surrogates. “We’d like to see the language shift back to ‘surrogate partner,’ which was the original term,” says Vena Blanchard, president of the International Professional Surrogates Association (IPSA). “Masters and Johnson originated the concept, and their treatment program was based on the theory that many people had problems that required the help of a cooperative partner, and some people didn’t have partners. So they trained people to work as ‘partner surrogates.’ The media took the term ‘partner surrogate’ and changed it to ‘sexual surrogate’ because it sounded sexier. But ‘sexual surrogate’ implies that the work is all about sex.” So if surrogate partner therapy is not about sex – or not all about sex – then what is it primarily about? “Surrogate partner therapy is a therapeutic treatment that combines psychotherapy with experiential learning,” Blanchard says. “It’s a program designed for people like SCARED, for people who struggle with anxiety, panic and past trauma – things that can distort a person’s experience in the moment.” Surrogate partner therapy happens in stages, with each progressive stage representing another “teeny-tiny baby step,” as Blanchard puts it. “The client first works with a legitimate therapist until the therapist thinks the client is ready to work with a surrogate partner,” Blanchard says. “You may start by sitting in opposite chairs and just talking. At some point, they might sit and hold hands, practice relaxation techniques and focus on simple sensations. In the next session, they might touch each other’s faces with their hands.” 46

Sex can and does sometimes occur in the later stages of surrogate partner therapy, SCARED, but it doesn’t always and it’s not the goal – healing is. “By having these repeated safe experiences, in a context where there’s no pressure, and consent is emphasized, and the patient is in control,” Blanchard says, “someone liked SCARED can learn to manage her anxiety, and her prior negative experiences are replaced with positive new experiences.” While I had her on the phone, I asked Blanchard the first question many people have about surrogate partners: Are surrogate partners sex workers? “A sex worker offers a sexual experience – that is the primary intention of what is a business transaction,” Blanchard says. “What a surrogate partner offers are healing and education. And while healing and education might also take place in a sex-work environment, and while some form of sexual contact might take place in surrogate partner therapy, the primary intention is different. A patient working with a surrogate partner is there to heal old injuries or break out of bad patterns so they can have a relationship in the future. People go to sex workers for an immediate experience – the agenda is sexual and about right now, not therapeutic and about the future.” Then I asked Blanchard the second question many people have about surrogate partner therapy: Is it legal? “There’s no place that it’s illegal,” Blanchard says. “There’s never been a court case challenging it. In California, where surrogate partner therapy is most common, no one has ever in 50 years challenged it.” If you’re interested in working with a surrogate partner, SCARED, you can contact the referrals coordinator at IPSA’s website: surrogatetherapy.org. Finally, SCARED, the number of trained and qualified surrogate partners is relatively small – IPSA has just 70 members – so you might need to go where most of those trained and qualified surrogates partners are in order to work with one. (The part of California that isn’t on fire is lovely this time of year.) “Since there aren’t many qualified surrogate partners available,” Blanchard says, “people sometimes need to travel to another location and work intensively. People will come for two weeks and work every single day with a therapist and a surrogate partner.” My partner and I have been together for 11 years and have always had a great sex life. I love his cock, we have similar appetites, and until recently everything was great. But he has always had an aversion to blood. He is a pacifist, a vegetarian and a recovering Muslim, so as much as I don’t understand his fear, I would never push him to have sex during my period. The problem is now I bleed whenever we have sex – just a tiny bit, but that’s enough to kill it for him, and

“ P I C K L E S & S U R R O G AT E S ” the sex is immediately over. We already have enough constraints with differing schedules, kids, lack of privacy, periods. This is a big deal for me, and I don’t know how to deal with it. Any ideas? Afraid To Bleed

Meet Sophie!

Turn off the lights, draw the curtains, have sex in the dark, get him a blindfold – and insist he see a therapist who specializes in helping people overcome their irrational phobias. I’m a 35-year-old gay man and I’ve been single for 10 years. I’d kind of given up, but suddenly I’ve got a real sweet guy in my life. He’s 24, so we’ll see how the age thing works out. I used to be pretty adventurous with sex, but I feel extremely nervous now. I feel like a virgin all over again – except I’m not turned on. On our first date, we ended up in a public bathroom, where I gave him a handjob (his idea). Last night, we messed around at my place. We kissed and got naked, but I couldn’t get hard. We watched porn. That always works, but not this time. Finally, he played with my nipples and – presto change-o – there was a happy ending at last! (Plus, it was a learning experience. I found out I like having my nipples licked, a lot!) I’m worried this will continue to happen. It’s like I’m thinking too much. I deal with anxiety and depression every day, and this is part of why I’ve been single for so long. I’m not feeling the urge to end the relationship yet, but I’ve been a wreck since we started dating. I’m attracted to this guy, but I can’t get turned on. Is this like not having the urge to eat when you’re nervous? Do I just need to wait it out until I’m comfortable with this guy, and hope he sticks around long enough to stick it in me? Lacking In My Pants You’re attracted to this guy, LIMP, and you’re turned on by him, and you’re capable of getting hard. When he licked your nipples, it took the focus off your cock, and your cock instantly got hard. Do that more, LIMP: more dates with this guy, more rolling around with him, more exploring other erogenous zones. And it’ll help if you can tell him the truth: You’re a little nervous because it’s been a while since you dated anyone. Once you’re more comfortable with him – once you’re more comfortable seeing someone – your boners will come.
