#6: Artistic License: Backseat Driving
Official statement by Emily: Michelangelo was at odds in this case with the Papal Master of Ceremonies, not the Pope as she states in the podcast.
Art! This week, Kyra and Emily are reunited to talk about art finding a way - whether it's social commentary or in response to social unrest. Join us as we discuss various art and artists, from fine art to opera, from Picasso to Wagner, and from La Bohème to Rent. For a full list of sources, please scroll down to Episode References.
Our fundraiser to the AAPI Women Lead organization is still ongoing. 100% of donations made to the Ko-fi page with the hashtag #stuffidonate will be donated to this nonprofit.
