Show Notes
We hear the word "viral" all the time. But very few things actually go viral. A recent exception is "Who Is the Bad Art Friend?," a nearly ten-thousand-word feature in The New York Times by Robert Kolker.

Journalist Sarah Cascone joins us to discuss a related legal battle involving Andy Warhol and Prince. It's complicated.
