The double bass is perhaps the truest test of showmanship according to Kirsten. This week, we cover Elvis Presley's That's Alright (Mama), Lou Reed's (dirty AF) Walk On The Wild Side, and The Cure's The Lovecats. Plus, a mini review of the Jim Henson restrospectacle for that one devoted listener who really, really wanted to know. We love you.
Our television expert might be compromising his double degree to be here but it's alllll good (or so he says). Is reviewing Safe (2018) worth the academic risk? Uhh... sure! Standing at a solid 6.5 rating from the man himself, this Michael Hall starrer (of Dexter fame) is only 10 episodes long with no future seasons in sight. A quick binge indeed - your degree will be fiiiine.
As a special double-whammy we have two Fancy New Bands this week and rapper Ryan Hendriks joins Pearl to spit a few verses. Ryan is one-half of Bad Crop but has just dropped his solo record 'Old Zealand'. Cheers NZ On Air!!
Got a boring commitment you can't get out of? Hate networking but love the snacks at schmoozy events? Luckily Jackson has the solution for all your social anxiety woes: this week we are learning how to make a body double!
This week Sam takes a look at The Beatles 1968 double album "The White Album." This classic is being reissued this week in celebration of its fiftieth anniversary.
