Episode 10: A River of Molten Chicken Wire - Old Boys Book Club, Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins

Welcome to Episode 10 of The Old Boys Book Club. Regular listeners will have learned to equate a deep dive into Dean's backstory with unequivocal sadness, and this episode is sadly not beyond that precedent. However we are lucky enough to have a Beatles joke, and some incredibly forced and inelegant similes, so that's something.

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.
