Episode 029: It’s Just a Jump to the Right… of Acceptance? The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) with Wind Goodfriend
Join Alex and returning guest host Dr. Wind Goodfriend in a discussion of the psychological concepts in the outrageous but important cult class film, The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)! We do the Time Warp again to discuss the sex, sexuality, and gender-bending concepts that are all over this wild musical. The message here is, don’t dream it, BE IT!
Check our Dr. Goodfriend’s new Audible course, The Science of Love.
