## Resource

Medaya Ocher and Kate Wolf are joined by French writer Ann Scott, whose cult novel, Superstars , was just translated into English. Superstars depicts Paris' queer techno scene—the music, the fashion, the drugs, as well as the passionate love affairs. Scott talks about that era and how she turned heartbreak into art. In the second half of our show, Eric Newman speaks with queer historian Hugh Ryan about his new memoir, My Bad: A Personal History of the Queer Nineties and Beyond . Eric and Hugh discuss queer representation in mainstream media and why we're all feeling nostalgic for those analog, offline times.
