The TV Show Is On A Loop For You To Find Your Placeholder Friends
I was walking home, a routine podcast-stroll, listening to Marc Maron – one of my forever go-to podcasts; it’s a habit. And he’s talking to A.O. Scott – the film critic. So I was leaning in on this one. Because I loved A.O. Scott’s book – which is the book that Marc is now reading, […]Archive

Sweetman Podcast: Lockdown Hiatus
For just the third term – in six years – Sweetman Podcast is having a cuppa tea, and then a lie-down. Level 4 lockdown doesn’t make the kind of podcasting I do at all possible. Plenty of podcasts in the sea, maybe far too many – and a lot of them are so good at delivering video […]Archive

In Praise of ‘Masterclass’
When I first saw the ads I wondered if it was real – some sort of deep-fake scam. You signed up and had access to classes with famous filmmakers, writers, musicians…yeah right! But then it started to make more sense, seemed legit. Why not? A friend visited one day, told me she’d recently signed up […]Archive

In Praise of Hanif Abdurraqib
Hanif Abdurraqib is a writer of words, observer of worlds. He’s a poet, essayist, cultural critic. I remember reading some of his articles on pop music – and liking them, but things really came alive for me with the release of his second book, They Can’t Kill Us Until They Kill Us, a selection of essays. It […]Archive
