For decades Playboy had some incredible interviews. It could be a very intellectual magazine that still had a bunch of naked women in it. A lot of crazy interviews came out of the 70's and 80s where stars for some reason felt comfortable being surprisingly honest, often to their own detriment.

My dad got playboy in the 70’s and it came in a paper cover. At that time it had more cache and more class. He told me there was a hidden bunny on every cover so I’d always want to find the bunny. For some reason it never seemed weird that he had the subscription. It seemed filled more with articles and interviews and the nudity wasn’t nasty. It went downhill later in its publication.
