a talk show about art in NYC
hosts Jarrett Earnest and Leigha Mason welcome guest Alissa Bennett! Alissa is a writer and iconic “historian of bad behavior”. Alissa talks about the circuitry of fandom and obsession, the purposes of over-identification with cultural figures, and her interest in Janet Malcolm’s book The Silent Woman. In the second half of the show, Alissa dishes advice to listeners who have called in with questions (if you’d like to leave a general voicemail for the show, you can do so at speakpipe.com/at), and Leigha talks about getting stabbed in Greece!
