Poet John Cooper Clarke is back! We talk about everything from ancient Rome and the birth of paparazzi culture to wild celebrity stories and the golden age of Hollywood. We dive into epic sword-and-sandal films, the origins of iconic stars, punk music, gangster and outlaws, and some behind-the-scenes gossip you won’t want to miss. It’s a journey through film, fame, and fascinating historical tidbits, all with a dash of humor.

Hooray for humanity!

We're dropping new episodes every Thursday-ish.
