Night Call

96: Sex Lies & CD-Roms

It’s Spooky Love February at Night Call! First a followup about Wall-E and robot genders! Then it’s Ballie, the nonthreatening spokesthing robot surveillance ball shaped robot! Molly went to Britneyland and tells Emily and Tess about her journey there, prompting a fun chat about escape rooms, pop up museums and staring down a Britney infinity mirror at the last twenty years of your life! Then it’s the mystery of The Golden Suicides - revisiting Nancy Jo Sales’ Vanity Fair article about Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake. Was it a case of cult stalking, drug addiction, or both? FOOTNOTES:
