Grief, Guts, and Cowboy Gusto with Matt Mitchell
Manage episode 397467739 series 3371200
Content Warning: This episode contains detailed discussions of generational trauma and suicide.
For today's episode, I'm joined by one of my current favorite modern essayists and cultural critics Matt Mitchell (Paste, Pitchfork, MTV, Altpress) to discuss how identity, pop culture, and personal grief are fundamental elements of their work. Additionally, we delve into the somber brutality of Neil Young's Tonight's The Night, our shared adoration of Freaks and Geeks, and why queer representation in popular media – specifically in the Hollywood intersex canon – leaves much to be desired.
