I hope you good folks are following me over on Substack, because I'm writing some pretty cool stuff. My ongoing series, "Reading Playboy for the Articles," continues to be a fun and insightful glimps into the pop culture zeritgeist of decades past. Here are links to my most recent additions, in case you've missed them:
August 1977
Fonzie, kit cars of the 70s and A Bridge Too Far
September 1972
The Troubles, Semi-Tough and drugs galore
March 1967
Orson Welles, Sharon Tate and a Fox River bachelor pad monument to MCM excess
If you want to keep up with all of my various goings-on, I recommend subscribing to Gibberish on Substack. It's painless, I promise.
