The Cosmic Shambles Network | Bec Hill, Clara Barker, Michael Brooks and more give us their best reads of 2023 @cosmicshambles | Uploaded 9 months ago | Updated 10 hours ago
In this short film we speak to Bec Hill, Suzi Gage, Clara Barker, Yang-Huei He, Sammie Buzzard and Michael Brooks about their favourite reads of 2023. Their selections take in D&D, science biographies and mental health.

Backstage at Nine Lessons this year we asked all the performers to give us their favourite books they've read this year.

* Yes, we know there's an errant frame of Anjana Khatwa at the end but we noticed it late. It's not some subliminal message to make you like rocks more.

The Universe was made by a god, sometimes omnipotent, sometimes fractious, sometimes both. Now, as we explore the Universe and start to explain ourselves, the Universe has started to lose it single meaning and we have to find individual meanings ourselves. This is Tips for Existence where Robin Ince talks to cosmologists, composers, astronauts and authors about what gives them meaning.
