e418. PCA Roundtable: Enjoying the Art of Immoral Artists: An Ethical and Aesthetic Dilemma

It’s that time of year again! If you’re a long time listener to the show then you probably know about PCA already. PCA is acronym for both the Popular Culture Association and their annual convention that in many ways is part of the genesis of the show. Last year all of the cohosts attended, but this year only Mav was able to go, so we wanted to bring you a taste of what we did there. On today’s episode, hear Mav sit on a philosophy roundtable organized by friend of the show Matt Brake and also including Nicole Freim and George Tsakiridis. On this episode, the panel discusses the ethical dilemma of consuming important (or pleasurable) works of art after the creator has been found to be somewhat problematic for one reason or another. The panel shares their thoughts and leads a discussion with a room full of scholars with varying opinions. Listen and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
