HEROES: 'Fran Lebowitz' by DJ Prequel

TUNE IN NEXT WEEK, WHERE I CHAT TO PREQUEL ALL ABOUT HIS NEW ALBUM...

But in the meantime, this is episode is part of a mini-series within The Passion PT Show, called ‘These Could Be Heroes’.

I chat to legend of the Melbourne DJ scene, DJ Prequel. 

Prequel and I chat about a hero that we both share… and it’s not what you’d expect of two guys in their 30s …

It’s Fran Leibowitz, a New York intellectual, social commentator, sixty-something, Jewish lesbian author and speaker who has recently released a series on Netflix directed by none other than Martin Scorsese called ‘Pretend Its a City’, In which she pretty much complains about the state of the world from the city she only occasionally and begrudgingly leaves, Manhattan.

Along with the fact that she is a poster girl for working with your creative blocks – or as she calls it a creative blockade – I wanted to discuss what it is about this day and age that makes her particular brand of Curmudgeonly nihilism so welcome. 

Tune in next week for a more music-centric chat with prequel but in the meantime please enjoy the very first episode of These could be heroes where we discuss Fran Leibowitz.
