Old Boys Book Club

Episode 12: He Pressed '16' on his phone - Old Boys Book Club, Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins

Andrew Mole and Jonny Lennard Season 1 Episode 12

Episode 12 brings bad news for Raimondo, a character close to our hearts, but who seems not to know his own. Lefty Journo-shagger-lad, mouthpiece of the elite, or just bad writing? Only you can decide.

Johnson also speculates on how natural intra-workplace-extra-marital affairs are within the journalistic community, perhaps slipping over Freud as he does so. 

And have the police finally realised the ambulance they're looking for has been right under their noses the whole time? 

Join us for Episode 12 of The Old Boys Book Club, where we, like the stolen ambulance, inch ever closer to our finish line. 
--

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.
