Ep. 61 | Swim Centre Poetics w. james.haha.nice
This week, the extended M*rlborough-Sh*a-C*llectual clan chat for ages with James.haha.nice: the “alternative comedian from Melbourne” responsible for the Harold Holt Swim Centre series on Instagram Tiktok.
They talk about “Puss” Holt, the general mean-ness of the Australian political class; the misogyny at the heart of conspiracy theories; The Butter Wars and international trade policy; modern documentary culture; Australian history’s terminal dullness; defamation and the chilling of critical culture. It’s a huge and important yarn; all-time Battler areas.
Before that, the r*de mechanicals talk Starmxit, the Race Around the World; Shakespeare (gay); and the HUGE REVEAL of the CHARLIE PICKERING BB KING.
Note: Watteau was not really a landscape painter, but certainly bordered on genre!
Produced by "Dictator" Dan Dare.
Theme song: No Strain by the Southend Rainbows.
