'White Lotus' creator Mike White finds wide success after 25 years in the margins | Fresh Air

As the second season of HBO's The White Lotus comes to a close, creator Mike White reflects on how it examines the dark side of sex, and how at its heart is a mix of Laverne & Shirley, Fantasy Island and Survivor.
