Your Body Modifications

The Brian Lehrer Show | Sep 28, 2022

Body modification has been a human practice around the world for thousands of years, with varying levels of acceptance depending on the place and time. As we continue our exploration of this cultural moment, listeners call in to talk about their tattoos, piercings and other body modifications -- what inspired them, what meaning they hold, and whether they are displayed or hidden with co-workers and family.

Be alert for scams. WNYC never asks for nor accepts money for coverage or interviews. Anyone making such a request does not represent WNYC.
