18. Don't Be Cruel (To A Heart That's True): The Five of Pentacles Tarot Cure
This episode is mainly about the incredibly young (only 22!) and goofy Elvis Aaron Presley's performance of "Don't Be Cruel" on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1957.
It also delves a little into why vegans don't (or shouldn't?) eat honey, and whether we'd change our behaviour towards people and things, if they had an SUC (Subjective Unit of Cruelty) measure attached to them.
Thanks to Sophie for her FFA (Free Free-Association) of this card. Each FFA involves Sophie, freely-associating around the episode card which until that moment she had never set eyes on before. I see the FFAs as buckets of cool spring water from The Well of The Collective Unconscious.
