Courtney Love and Neil Strauss

Scott sits down with ten-time New York Times best-selling author Neil Strauss and iconic rock star (as well as Scott’s band mate) Courtney Love. Courtney and Neil describe how they met and the true friendship that developed. They touch base on Neil’s 2005 book, The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists, and the book he cowrote with Marilyn Manson, The Long Hard Road Out of Hell. The group also discusses the inner workings of relationship building, their mutual love of rock, musician Billy Corgan, and Courtney and Neil’s Scrabble game. Then, Neil dives into the story of how he began his #1 podcast To Live and Die in LA; he learned a story of a missing actress in LA and set off on a path to help solve the murder. Neil talks about some of his philosophies, and Courtney talks about her memoir, Dirty Blonde: The Diaries of Courtney Love. After chatting about what to do in toxic relationship, Courtney remembers her time with Andy Warhol and comments on financial literacy.   Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers Learn more about your ad choices.
