I agree. The other two are more like time capsules - On The Road is one of those that I can see how it fired that generation, but it’s harder for us to quite feel the heat they experienced.

Last Exit to Brooklyn is a fantastic companion piece
Read it last year. Incredible piece. My head wanted an edit, my heart was ‘Hell, let’s go full immersion!’
She did! But we had to edit courageously 😅 . Sent us all boxes of zinc in the post! “Young men must take more zinc!” A one-off…
Had the most wonderfully bizarre encounter with DBC when I was at university. We invited her provide a short voice over for a documentary we weee making… The rest was wonderfully surreal.
My other self busy promoting forthcoming Be My (Bowie) Wife podcast
This was enormous fun to talk about!
Incoming (well, in May)…me and the wife chat all things Bowie & go down many a-rabbit hole in the process. Weekly episodes, covering various topics from albums & films to Bowie Bonds & beyond!
Sick-bags on standby for today's episode of Not The Same Log, in which @elliotchapman.bsky.social, @timescarcass.bsky.social and myself take a swat at David Cronenberg's 1986 existential tour de force, The Fly.

A big 4x4 synth drum & a fat bass short of being an early-90s floor-filler 🙌
Some of my favourite people get together to talk about Bowie? Yes please.
@exaggeratedelegy.bsky.social granting us a lovely intro prior to lift off of Be My (Bowie) Wife ❤️
It’s the best explanation for the plot of The Revenge yet put forward…

Please join @timescarcass.bsky.social and myself as we take a look at Lovecraft's most flagrantly racist story, the Fascist fab;e that is: The Horror At Red Hook.

As it seems to have found an audience: @timescarcass.bsky.social, @elliotchapman.bsky.social and myself dive deep into the original Alien:

Best one ever.
Saw them separately but would’ve loved to see that tour…especially in Pittsburg, where Bowie battled absolute audience-hostility like a fucking champ! Imagine being an established mega-star & going into that arena with NIN fans who hated your act?! At least Trent cheered him from the wings 🥰.
You have no idea how intimidated we - @timescarcass.bsky.social, @elliotchapman.bsky.social and myself- were to tackle this one (even though I've spoken about it before on the channel):

Sorry - nerd alert hahaha. But the original point stands - he’s deffo doing Jabba’s books on the side. 🤣
So….that’s not Jeremy Bulloch. Possibly, a stunt guy (Peter Diamond..?) or a stand-in to line up a shot…?
So much fun on this one - - covers both TV and Film versions
Exhausting. Played for clicks. Never quiet. Running on controversy & vibes. Only thing proven: how the constitution & opposition are useless against over-concentrated power…in the hands of the worst we can produce: a misogynist racist murderous coward & rapist who deals in terror home & abroad.
The ‘find your mark’ tip is ingenious. I used that myself!
Depending on whether a) I want a giggle with Sir Rog, b) something a bit interesting & knotty for Jimmy, or c) the last time it was properly good…
Spy - Moonraker
OHMSS - Daylights
Casino - Quantum
Rob McKenna was a Rain God. All he knew was that his working days were miserable and he had a succession of lousy holidays. All the clouds knew was that they loved him and wanted to be near him, to cherish him, and to water him….
Ann Hammond is superb!
Hurrah! It’s cos I’m back hahahahaha
Calling all Quatermass fans…
