Tue, 21 February 2006 In episode nine we address the sine qua non of hippyism, reverence for the 60s. No one charactersistic better defines a hippie than their total fixation with this decade. We found a clip from an Ur-Hippie, Socialist Steve, who sets out a fairly common, to the point of cliche, argument for why the 60s where so great. Naturally we couldn't disagree more and end up turning a 5 minute clip into a full show. Join us as we do what we do best, hippie-bash. Links Comments[0] |
