(Re) Encounters

Sam and Boris love films, books, TV, music and every form of culture you can name. The thing is that Sam has seemingly seen and experienced way more of it. Every time Sam finds out that Boris has no idea about a piece of media Sam thinks everyone knows about, Sam simply cannot contain his amazement. The two of them have decided to share (in podcast form) their journeys through and encounters with culture that one or both of them may be unfamiliar with. Their adventures will consist of discussion, analysis, trivia and reconsidering what really makes a piece of media culturally significant. You can look forward to hearing examples of their unorthodox senses of humour, love of completely useless information and capacity to deliver endless hot takes. To paraphrase Darth Vader - "They would be honoured if you would join them..." (hopefully that's one they've both seen).

15: Born This Way - a (Re)Encounter

Well we're doing something a bit different again, but variety is the spice of life, and speaking of spicing things up few artists manage to be as relentlessly provocative, relevant and visionary whilst staying in the mainstream as Lady Gaga. To celebrate Pride (we know we're a little late), as well as some of the music that defined our early teenage years, we'll be covering Gaga's seminal 2011 album Born This Way, complete with a slightly new format to reflect this new genre of review. Join the church of Gaga as we journey back to where many of the inspirations for her later musical experiments arguably began, and allow your pleasure centres (or at least the parts of your mind that enjoy listening to us talking about stuff) to be relentlessly bludgeoned by facts, feelings and fangirling over this iconic cultural time capsule. Put your paws up, put your headphones in, and press play - 'cause you were born this way, baby!
