Hudson, New York is still a new place for me, so this episode Cidiot tries to take a short cut to getting to know why the way things are.
I find the best way to do this is through people who’ve been here for years and who reflect the way things are and maybe even shape them.
Meet Mark Allen, a film-maker, a writer, a radio host, and yes, a former go-go boy. Mark and I both grew up in the 70s and 80s, though I was not a go-go boy nor featured in Paper Magazine. He is prolific and provocative and is generous and hilarious sharing what he sees. We talk about Hudson’s culture, about video, dinner parties, the waves of gays, advice for cidiots—and of course the back alleys of Hudson.
