Leslie Simon Has Launched A Podcast, “Desperate For Attention”

Following years of reporting and chronicling prominent music scenes, Leslie Simon has launched a podcast, “Desperate For Attention,” delving into the culture surrounding iconic bands. 

Simon told Study Hall about how the latest episode, “The Xerox Effect: My Chemical Romance,” is a “love letter to everyone who survived the Hot Topic years with their dignity (mostly) intact.” 

Simon writes, “If you remember the precise art of applying MAC Cranberry eyeshadow, the satisfaction of perfectly straightened hair that defied all laws of nature, and part of you still believes the Sidekick II was peak technology, I’ve crafted something special just for you.” 

“Desperate For Attention” is available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
