Episode 5: Let's Bomb France! Old Boys Book Club, Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins

Andrew Mole and Jonny Lennard Season 1 Episode 5

Join us for chapters 13, 14 and 15 of Boris Johnson's Seminal, Semi-Autobiographical "fast paced thriller" (not our words) 72 Virgins. 

In this episode we meet one of literature's most wretched characters, and explore an inexplicable oral examination. It's all happening.

Uncovering Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins. Episode 5, Let's Bomb France! 

With the drama heating up, let's see how many racist slurs Johnson can crowbar into these chapters.

Join the Old Boys Book Club - a weekly reading group led by Jonny and Andy, Anthropologists by training, cynics by choice, determined to understand one of modern societies oldest (and most incongruous) tropes - the Old Boy.

We have reached peak 'Old Boy' with Johnson, Trump, Farage et al leading the world towards a leather-clad man cave of environmental catastrophe. 

But what exactly is an Old Boy?

In what will almost certainly be called the pinnacle of modern satire, but is as yet unreviewed, Jonny and Andy introduce the world to Old Boy after Old Boy in the best way they know: by decoding the literature they have willingly created.
