An Excellent, informative podcast

I’ve learned (and continue to learn) so many new things weekly from this podcast. Can’t get enough!

Warhole

I generally enjoy “Stuff your should know’.

The Warhole one left me pretty uncomfortable.
I felt it glossed over possibly very dark acts and implications on the basis of “it’s art” and “the light of the times”.
Certain behaviours are abhorrent at any time.
I suspect this fellow was America’s Jimmy Saville.

Too Woke for me
