Check Please! #11 Desire, Sexy Fruit & Suburban Perversion (Oct. 14, 2024)
Update: 2024-10-15
Description
In this week’s episode of Check Please! we chat about which foods have a certain sexy quality and whether aphrodisiacs are real or fake. We meditate on desire in all it’s forms, from the kind of yielding love it takes to make long term relationships work to the depths of depravity it can lead us to, as depicted in movies like Happiness (1998), Little Children (2006), and American Beauty (1999).
We interpreted desire as a theme more literally in the musical arena, calling out some of our favorite tracks and artists of the same name, and shared a poem by Eileen Myles about wanting what you already have.
