The koto, a traditional Japanese string instrument, lives everywhere from recurring anime trope to disco shimmer, through to Dr. Dre hook (sort of). But, most importantly, how can Mike purchase one?
Journalist, filmmaker, producer, and apparent Louis Theroux variant (to the unimaginative on Twitter, at least), David Farrier drops in to the studio to talk about his brand new Netflix series, Dark Tourist. Sadist horror houses, nuclear radiation sites, murder tours... Mike's hooked. But is there anything left for Season Two?
Sam joins Mike and Tess to talk The Good Place, this week. A series he's been a long-time fan off, it's now finally time for it's review, and it;'s glorious. A must-see show, which is sure to get you hooked, according to the expert. But Mikey wants to know, who's seen House of Cards?
Sam tried to watch Chambers, couldn't get into it, so we're talking The Society. And after 10 hours of binge watching the series in two days, Sam's got some thoughts to share. This teen drama has got the running themes to keep you hooked, but is it worth your time?
Jenna's got a weird one (in a very great way), Bunny by Mona Awad, a novel that's very relatable for the high-school-female-friendship model. Jenna didn't read the back before she dived into this one, and she was very pleasantly surprised. A black-comedy, that takes a dark twist and apparently will hook you from the beginning. Nice one.
Jenna remembers Ben Folds Five, and their iconic single, 'Brick' and reckons A Dream About Lightning Bugs, Ben Folds memoir is worth a read. Whether you know the song or not, Jenna says it's a great read, that's sure to get you hooked.
