ep 84 - lyon.jpg

In This Episode:

Rachel Lyon joins us with her beautiful debut Self-Portrait with Boy, which sends us off thinking about old NY vs new NY, ghosts, and then we get to talking about Eileen Myles' Afterglow and basically listen now so you don't get Foam-O. (You'll get the joke when you listen to the ep.)
