/506/ Bunga’s Been Juicin’ ft. Jason Myles

On image-enhancing drugs.

Jason Myles of This Is Revolution is back on, talking to George and Alex H about his article in Damage on increasing steroid use.

• What does the discourse around 'fake natties' tell us about authenticity? Do SSRIs provide "fake happy"?

• If steroids are a short-cut, how do we understand the "work" in "working out"?

• Is the taboo on drug use completely gone?

• Are we medicating to counter the side-effects of other meds?

• How do issues such as steroids and trans reveal contradictory attitudes to the body?

• Have the links between body, image, sex, and eroticism been erased?
