Your Body Modifications

The Brian Lehrer Show | Sep 28, 2022

As we continue our exploration of this cultural moment, listeners call in to talk about their tattoos, piercings and other body modifications -- what inspired them, what meaning they hold, and whether they are displayed or hidden with co-workers and family.
