SIM Ep 374 Gig 53: McLynn and Hazarika

05/13/20 • 65 min

Back on February 14 this year, Mickey and Hannah were joined by actor and one-woman cat herd Pauline McLynn and journalist, political commentator and comedian Ayesha Hazarika.

Now then, there’s some stuff in here that is clearly just jokes and lols – we absolutely do not endorse alcoholism or stalking. But hopefully you already knew that. And it’s very much worth remembering this was recorded back in February before we were officially in a global pandemic,

And so, please get ready for topics including the turn of a man’s ankle, Riverdance, some genuinely excellent advice, and Hannah’s shit, mud-covered, fully nude birthday. Among many other marvellous tangents.

We recorded this in front of a live audience at King’s Place in London, so thanks to them, thanks to Emma Corsham for all things tech, and thanks to our lovely audience. They had a great time. And when we can host live gigs again, you should come along and have a great time, too.

SIM Ep 373 Flicking #2: Kindergarten what?

Since cinemas are consigned to the list of things we used to do in these coronavirus-y times, we decided to have a watch of some of our own favourite films. Jen chose first, and opens this series with "classic" 90s comedy, Kindergarten Cop. Yes, we were surprised too. But can a man looking after children sustain the interest of the rest of our intrepid viewers for an hour and 50 minutes?

SIM Ep 375 Chops 161: Antigone Rising with Helen Morales

What can we learn from the ancient Greeks? And what should we probably unlearn from them? In this episode, Jen chats to Professor Helen Morales, classicist and Argyropoulos Chair in Hellenic Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. They chat about Helen's new book Antigone Rising: The Subversive Power of the Ancient Myths and how ancient misogyny still underpins modern society, as well as some pilgrimages to Dollywood, among other things.
