Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) I am inclined to agree, never been a fan of the show as I think Sugar is a massive cunt. I inadvertently (Wor lass had it on) watched the recap on the series last week and I couldn't believe how bad it was .

The Fish 8950 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Manhunt: Unabomber on Netflix has started well. A little more contemplative than Mindhunter, but that aside, it's very similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34186 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Aye I enjoyed it. Bettany as the Unabomber is basically Father John Misty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hear FJM get interviewed on 6 Music by Radcliffe and Maconie? Don't know if he was tired, or if he's genuinely a bellend, but it was some of the most awkward radio I've heard in years.

Gemmill 34186 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Aye it was brutal. Odd as well, cos I think he's usually pretty engaging. He blamed it on "fear and loathing level substance abuse problems". https://www.google.co.uk/amp/amp.timeinc.net/nme/news/music/father-john-misty-blame-awkward-6-music-interview-2031139%3fsource=dam He was mint at the Sage last year.

The Fish 8950 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Maconie strikes me as the kind of interviewer that would very quickly lose patience with someone trying to be clever, or at least trying to seem smarter than him. I don't mean that as a compliment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34186 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 It must get very tempting to start acting the bellend on those promo type interviews. When you're doing 10 or 20 a day, you've eventually got to start acting the bellend unless you're a media trained drone like Olly Murs (troublemaker!).

Gemmill 34186 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Wormwood on Netflix is good. Documentary about the death of a scientist in 1953 and his son's efforts to prove that he was actually murdered by the CIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started watching this last night but my hungover state mean't I was asleep before the end. It's scary what the CIA used to get up (Still at it today no doubt).
