About this episode

The episode discusses the upcoming trial regarding the nude culture at Denny Blaine Park in Seattle and its implications for public space and bodily autonomy.

A major trial over Seattle’s Denny Blaine Park is set to begin May 27, with Friends of Denny Blaine arguing that the beach’s long-standing nude culture is lawful, historically significant, and constitutionally protected. The legal defense draws on recent Washington case law, naturism research, and the documented history of the park itself, reframing the dispute as a broader conflict over public space, expression, and bodily autonomy.
