Ep. 105: The Truth ... w/ The Dare

In our last episode of the year, we're joined by superstar musician Harrison Patrick Smith, aka The Dare, to discuss his stylistic evolution and fashion predictions for 2025. As he ties up the album cycle for his hit LP What's Wrong with New York?, we revisit his male art hoe days as Turtlenecked, ponder his notorious black-and-white suit, and anticipate the necklines, color schemes, and pants widths that will define his next era. Harrison tells us about eating kangaroo, his genealogical tree, living in an Industrial Business Zone, the paradise/warzone of his DMs, all things electroclash, bloghouse, and indie sleaze, and more.
