Welcome to Mondo Street Cinema Club — the spiritual successor to Mondo Street Social Club, where chaos met conversation. Phil and Dan are back, thanking you for your questionable loyalty and dragging you through the cinematic multiverse one reel at a time. From What If?, where we rewrite the rules of storytelling, to Rewind Roulette, where nostalgia plays dirty, and Trailer Trash, where we dissect new trailers like they owe us money — no film is safe, no opinion is sacred, and no one’s getting out unchanged. It’s film talk with a twist… and possibly a head injury. Instagram @mondostreetcc

Episode 2: Richey's Mirror. Art, Pain and The Holy Bible

Episode 2: Richey’s Mirror – Art, Pain, and The Holy Bible

In this gripping chapter of You Love Us, we plunge into the black heart of the Manic Street Preachers’ most harrowing masterpiece: The Holy Bible (1994). As the band’s political fury sharpened and their artistic vision turned bleakly prophetic, lyricist Richey Edwards descended into a storm of self-destruction.

We explore how the Manics weaponised press manipulation, poetry, and polemic to challenge the complacency of British culture – and how Richey’s spiralling mental state fused with brutal honesty to create an album unlike anything before or since.

A raw journey into beauty, horror, and truth – this is the sound of a band on the edge, and a mirror held up to the darkest corners of the human soul.
