Host Kurt Andersen and special guest contemporary artist Barbara Kruger look at the intersections of art and politics — from novelists like Joe Klein who use politics as their raw material to the ways that politicians use art to make their point. We’ll also take a look at why songs stick in your head and the lessons to be learned from old record album covers.
The story you just read is available to read for free because thousands of listeners and readers like you generously support our nonprofit newsroom.
