There's a cool exhibit on vice in the 40's & 50's going on downtown at the city history museum just east of Youville and McGill... they were kind enough to give me a freeb as a journalist but I had to rush through due to time constraints so I can't give any spectacularly brilliant evaluation.
It seemed a bit of a wide scope for such a small museum and...you know it's a huge topic.
So to contextualize that museum thing, I was invited to discuss - at least one element of that subject, ie: the sex part - on TV with legendary local TV anchor Mutsumi Takahashi, one of those few people who I totaly revere as a journalist.
Mits told me that the 4.5 minute interview got a good response (so you're saying you're big among local degenerates watching the noon news? - Chimples) . I can nae bear to watch it myself as I feel that I look like a braying jackass, especially while explaining how much a prostitute cost on the Main in the 1930s.. but you should most def' watch... so you want to see the interview? Well.. here 'tis.
