It’s the Eve of Xmas Eve as Capt’n Max and I broadcast live, sliding down your chimney with gifts (awards!) if you’ve been sex-positive, and coal in your stocking if you’ve been a war criminal. That’s the boobie prize—and I don’t mean Jingle Jugs.

It’s the SUZYs 2023!

Honoring excellence in broadcast artistry and exhibitionism, erotic performance, pro-sex activism, antiwar politics and Weapons of Mass Seduction, celebrating The Bonobo Way of peace through pleasure in all kinds of weather, for the 12th consecutive year…

Are YOU a winner?

Well before XBIZ, the AVNs, the TEAs, the Oscars, Critics Choice, the Grammys, the Tonys, the Emmys, the BAFTAs, NAACP, XRCO, SAG and MTV awards and the Golden Globes trot out their awards, we are here to acknowledge the best and worst of 2023 with the DrSusanBlock.tv Awards, a.k.a., “The SUZYS.”

So… Merry XXXmas, Sexmas, Festivus, Happy Kwanza, Happy Pancha Ganapati, Io Saturnalia, Happy Anti-Zionist Hanukkah, Happy Whatever You Celebrate 2023, Winter Solstice Cheer AND a Happy Nude Rear! We’re looking up the ass of the past year!

Our goal, as always (besides having a cum-ton of fun), is to advance the noble cause of sex education—more important than ever, as we face draconian crackdowns on sexual speech and activity by Big Tech, Big War and our Supreme Court Injustices. We also aim to inspire peace on earth, better erotica, pro-sex work, antiwar politics and free speech activism, as well as to save the real bonobos from extinction and support a more bonoboësque, Make Love Not War/Make Kink Not War ethos in the world.

Speaking of “ethos,” our Bonoboville Ethics Committee has, since our inception, stipulated that DrSuzy.Tv and/or F.D.R. staff members, no matter how deserving, are ineligible to receive SUZY awards.

However, because we were raised in the United States of Everybody-Gets-an-Award, we do give a special “staff award” to our beloved staff, a “thank you for your service” award that winners can put on their resume, if not their mantle.

Otherwise, all award winners are selected from guest appearances, calls and mentions on the over 37 live broadcasts in 2023  F.D.R. and The Dr. Susan Block Show, including several outside interviews and Bonoboville-on-the-Road presentations on location.

As is traditional for The SUZYs, we do not invite the winners, the losers, or anyone at all to the award show, so don’t worry, you didn’t miss out! Just sit back by the yuletide fire, pour yourself a flute of champagne, smoke a doobie, relax, cheer for The Best, boooo The Worst and enjoy the SUZY awards….

There you have it, another hot listicle of sexperts, sexpots, sex workers, politicos, artists, exhibitionists, visionaries, revolutionaries, hot babes, bitches, a few bad bastards and several war criminals who should be in prison but probably the worst that’ll happen to them is this boobie prize. All have appeared, been mentioned or parodied, immortalized, honored for greatness or exposed for evil on FDR and/or DrSuzy.Tv.

In a way, the SUZYs are the Anti-Award Awards. You may question some of our choices (so did we!), which is one reason to listen to the show. Another reason is that it’s full of sex, fun, bonobo wisdom, antiwar fervor and leftist politics, always bubbling up in our champagne as we toast the winners and pee on the losers. That’s just virtual peeing; don’t panic, you Censor-Bots! We’re not the Israeli Defense Forces – who really did pee on Palestinian prisoners, thinking that was some sort of “own” goal, when all it proved is how gross they are.

The Perfect Sexy Lefty Gift

Need the perfect gift for the socialist-feminist-orgiast who has everything? Give The Bonobo Way  for the holidays… or Valentine’s Day (which is also World Bonobo Day)!

Win or losing it, get under that mistletoe and make love to someone you love tonight, even if that someone is you. And if you need a helping hand or if you just need to talk, the award-winning Therapists Without Borders of the Dr. Susan Block Institute are here for you 24/7 throughout the Holy Daze and into the future. And if you haven’t got a dime, everything you can see on DrSuzy.Tv is still free.

If you need a sex toy, your SUZY award can be used as a dildo; just remove the wings! In fact, it already has its own condom, worn like a halo on our SUZY award’s head.

Peace on Earth. Pleasure for All. Amen. Awomen. And a Happy Nude Rear!
