Friends, Enemies, and Lovers: Welcome to Scorpio Season. Come one—come all—to this incredibly special episode: our one year anniversary episode! Today we talk about the incredible and tumultuous life of Diego Rivera—muralist of the people, and Frida Kahlo's other half. No High School Musical references this time, but we're so happy to have spent our first of many fantastic years with all of you! Find out the political and artistic evolution of Diego Rivera's style; discuss the problematic and frustrating nature of one man's ego; remain fascinated by Diego's commitment to being an occultist; fill in your BYWAP Lotería card for every time Steph and Elene go on tangents about episodes they SHOULD do or problematic museum behavior; and laugh as we finally—finally!—cave and mention Banksy. G-d dammit. Things have changed, but we're changing with it. Donate. Sign petitions. Support Black-owned businesses. Educate yourselves. Listen. Speak. Repatriate. Stay Safe. Don't Touch Your Face.
