Show notes

On this very special late night/laggy recording of The Battler, Pat talks about the splendour and the beauty of living in the ADHD capital of Australia, while Tim discusses his first time with Ridley Scott’s criminally underseen ‘Alien.’

We also get into The Federal Budget, Dave Hughes’ descent into cookerdom, the limits of Australian literary criticism, and Joe Biden’s life as a Mudoken saviour + more. Produced and edited by our own personal Watto, Dan Dare. Follow/like @twimwintoncellectuals and Straying for the Morsel, @cormac_mccafe and The Yeah Nah Review, and buy NOCK LOOSE!
