Literary Loitering 106 - Balls Deep With Geoffrey Of Monmouth

Jul 28, 2019, 10:34 PM

The internet’s hand-basket of cultural anarchy return for more playful poking of the over-stuffed bears of books and the arts. Kicking things off this episode are Stephen King’s claims that America’s President is scarier than anything he wrote, and that he kind of predicted the future in his book The Dead Zone.
 
After that all bets are off as we take a look at Brad Downey’s statue of Melania Trump, find out why Metallica are writing a children’s book, discover some dystopian German sci-fi based on modern Britain, channel the spirits of Hunter S. Thompson’s thanks to AirBnB and more.

We end the show with Graham's thoughts about The Record Keeper by Agnes Gomillion.
