This week, we’re stepping inside Max’s Kansas City, the New York City bar that became a crossroads for queer culture, underground art, glam rock, and the birth of punk. From the Velvet Underground to Jayne County to the New York Dolls, Max’s shaped a generation of misfits and visionaries. I’m joined by Yvonne Sewall—who worked at Max’s, married owner Mickey Ruskin, and wrote the book High on Rebellion: Inside the Underground at Max's Kansas City. We talked about Yvonne's favorite memories, her nonprofit, the Max's Kansas City Project, and how she’s preparing for the club’s 60th anniversary.
