Season 1 Episode 5: Tuxedo Elegance and Leather Attitude

In this episode of So Dramatic, my guest is humanities professor Meg Murphy. Meg and I talk about the controversial photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. We imagine what it would have been like to live at the Hotel Chelsea, reminisce about our stays in European hostels, and discuss why it’s important to expose ourselves to things that make us uncomfortable.
