They Must Be Destroyed On Sight!
TV & Film
Lee and Leah return this week to cover a listener request. This time out it is a film featuring thinly-veiled fictionalized versions of David Bowie and Iggy Pop (and some Lou Reed) in the height of the Glam Rock era of the 1970s - told in the same fashion as a certain specific Orson Welles film - the Todd Haynes written-and-directed-"Velvet Goldmine" (1998). The conversation focuses around the look of the film and the performances; if the way the story is told is effective; the LGBTQ representation; Ewan McGregor's cock and balls; and collecting albums back in the day, to just name a few topics. Lee also introduces Leah to a fun new movie-related game that will pop up on the show again in the future, and they play a few rounds of it. So put on your shiny jumpsuit, throw on some glitter, and come rock with us for a while, why don't you?
