Two of the original influencers, Kenneth Hash (partygay turned tinsel town costumer) & James St James (the first celebutante turned author turned producer) join Rebecca & Lauren to discuss the Original Club Kids as they pertain to the theme of belonging and the courage to be fully who you are. The audacity to spread joy during the AIDS crisis, finding your tribe, a land before cell phones, and when the party truly does not start until you walk in. James is the author of Disco Bloodbath, the book from which the film Party Monster starring MaCauley Culkin is based. Lauren discovered both book and movie as an angsty teen & the pure relief of knowing that somewhere, there was a place she would belong.
