I'm Willip Haskin, the host of Decodering, Slate's podcast about cracking cultural mysteries.
Coming up in our new season, slow dancing.
You know that hands on hips, zombie sway.
I wouldn't call it dancing.
It used to be a rite of passage.
You know, stiffening your arms, Frankenstein's monster style, but something has happened to it.
My generation does not slow dance.
We don't slow dance.
Also this season, provocative experimental art was hidden in plain sight on the 90s hit TV drama, Melrose Place.

Decodering is back with brand new episodes.
