Episode 15: Pickel's Left Testicle - Old Boys Book Club, Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins

Episode 15 of The Old Boys Book Club, or, the episode where it dawned on Jonny and Andy that they were going to have to read the whole thing.

It's good news again for fans of Pickel, as we spend a lot of time up on the roof with him, including a semi-spectacular testicle biting extravaganza, courtesy of an unwittingly terrorist-enabling Indira. To say this chapter draws on the classic tropes of a french farce would be to do it a disservice. Enjoy!

Join the Old Boys Book Club - a weekly reading group led by Jonny Lennard and Andrew Mole, 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.
