Boogie Nights (1997) - I am a star. I'm a star, I'm a star, I'm a star. I am a big, bright, shining star.

*TRIGGER WARNING* Some of the topics and themes discussed in this week's episode are sensitive in nature and potentially triggering for some listeners. Please use your own discretion while listening.

This week we're getting down and dirty with Dirk Diggler and the rest of the characters of 1997's BOOGIE NIGHTS. A film that dives head first into the oft-shunned world of the Hollywood porn industry. With themes of sexuality and sexual shame, self-worth, personal identity, pursuit of purpose, and societal taboo, things get spicy in this discussion. LiGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION! Let's keep rockin' and let's keep rollin'.
