Dr. Klapper debuts today's topic as hair and the way that it presents people in a physical way. He relates this to music from the musical "Hair" during the 1960s and how growing your hair long was done to show your protest to the Vietnam War. We hear audio from James Rado who was one of the writers of the musical "Hair" and how they wrote the musical as a political statement but without any musicians. Doc relates hair to the world of sports through Troy Polamalu and his distinguishable hair during his time in the NFL. Troy has his hair that way in tribute to his Polynesian/Samoan heritage and how it would intimidate his football opponents. NBA Photographer Andrew Bernstein joins Dr. Klapper to discuss the recent "Showtime" reunion in Hawaii of the 80s Lakers championship team. Learn more about your ad choices.
