Also an interesting watch is the A&E documentary about the dark side of Hefner and Playboy: https://www.aetv.com/shows/secrets-of-playboy
It’s 12 parts and honestly could have easily been 10 if not less but it’s always worth exploring the duality of the man. No denying his social progressivism but he definitely wasn’t all shining light and I’m suspicious of anything that paints him as if he were.
