473 - The Smiths - Christina P
In a world of sickening brightness, the best way to stick out is to go dark. That\u2019s why when Christina Pazsitzky was growing up in the San Fernando valley, she sought out the eerily romantic weirdness of the 80\u2019s blossoming goth culture. It\u2019s been many years since Christina donned all black and danced the reckless dance of the lonely to the morose crooning of androgynous new wave. Now she\u2019s a wife, mother of two and a wildly successful stand-up comedian, with two Netflix specials to her credit:\xa0Mother Inferior\xa0and\xa0The Degenerates, and her own podcast:\xa0Your Mom\u2019s House. But no matter what, there\u2019ll always be a part of her that\u2019s still that twelve-year-old girl smoking cigarettes, listening to The Smiths\u2019 1984 debut alt rock classic\xa0self-titled debut, knowing full well how alone we all really are.\nThe 500 is a production of Native Creative Podcasts.\nFor show notes, guest playlists, complimentary documentaries, and audiobooks about the music go to The500Podcast.com.\nNew Artist/Song influenced by The Smiths:\xa0\nFlora Cash\xa0"They Own This Town"\xa0(Spotify)\xa0(YouTube)\nJoin.
