Over Culture Pigs

Are you, like us, a little piggie at the trough of culture? Do you spend as much time talking about the rubber nipples of George Clooney’s costume in Batman & Robin as you do discussing the pantheon of potential meanings behind the latest Taylor Swift song? Maybe you like your political scandals with a side of Hollywood gaslighting? Or perhaps you're in the mood for watching an art-house classic while second screening on TikTok?Then look no further because journalists Kate and Rory are here, and they're armed with years of experience offering commentary and critiques on all things culture and entertainment. It's a weekly wallow with two pals who'll guide you from the mineral rich pools of high-art to the lowliest puddles of entertainment culture. So if you fancy dipping a toe into the cultural trough - well then you had best dive in because our favourite piggies are tackling lowbrow things in a highbrow way, and highbrow things in a lowbrow way! New episodes are released every Friday - so you can stock up on your scintillating, shocking and hilarious cultural commentary ahead of the weekend.Hosted by Kate Demolder & Rory Cashin and produced by Dee Reddy for Poddle Audio. Email: culturepigs@poddleaudio.com to get in touch. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

aflevering Coachella Reactions, Euphoria S3 Reviews & Brian Cox Goes Nuclear artwork

Coachella Reactions, Euphoria S3 Reviews & Brian Cox Goes Nuclear

While the regular Olympics comes once every four years, what is kindly referred to as "The Influencers Olympics" actually comes each and every April... Yep, Coachella is upon us, and this year's trio of headliners - Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, and Karol G - brought a wide variety of types of performances and stage design, which then spurred on a wide variety of reactions from those in the crowd and those watching from home. Kate and Rory dive into the complicated mess of performers, contracts, advertising, and... exclusive polo courses (?!) to discuss why the world seems so obsessed with this particular festival. After that, with the arrival of the third - and final - season of Euphoria this week, Rory looks through some of the more scathing reviews of the new episodes, discusses whether the show should've been left well enough alone, and how Zendaya will be the one person to survive this dumpster fire. And then Kate brings some of the highlights of a recent interview with the much-loved Brian Cox (the Succession actor, not the renowned physicist) and how he has reached that perfect point in his life of being rich, famous, and old enough to stop carrying, and he unloads both barrels of his opinions into anyone and everyone who comes up in conversation.

Kanye West Banned, Universal's New Owners & Sky Ferreira Rumours

It has been one hell of a week, so we'll just get straight into it, shall we? To kick off, Kate and Rory discuss the complete and total collapse of this year's Wireless Festival, which was due to be headlined for three nights by none other than Ye (formerly Kanye West). A deep dive on the festival, on Ye himself, and what could happen next that could maybe turn all of this around. Up next, Kate discusses how music giant Universal has received a $64bn takeover offer from US investment company Pershing Square, and more specifically, its billionaire chief executive Bill Ackman. Who is that and why should we care? Well, remember when a certain Elon Musk took over Twitter? Yeah. That. And finally, Rory gathers up all of the swirling social media rumours around Sky Ferreira and Charli XCX and their reputed controversy over using old demos, which brings us down a memory lane of famous pop songs that were originally intended for someone else...

Harry Potter, Spider-Man & Banksy

Thank you, lovely listeners, for taking the time over your Easter break, or whatever it is you might be doing this weekend, to take the time to listen to us talk about pop culture! We love you for it. Yes, you! You, specifically! This week's big topic is none other than the return of Harry Potter. As HBO dropped the first teaser for their new adaptation of the hit series of novels, Kate and Rory look back over its decades of popularity and controversy, and maybe what's new to expect from the show... if anything? Next up, Rory chats about the new trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which recently broke just about every record that a trailer can break. Looking back over the most-watched trailers of all time, the results show some very surprising - and hopeful! - results for another big film this year... And to close us out, Kate looks into the recent revelation about the true identity of secret artist Banksy, how it all somehow ties to much-loved Brit band Massive Attack, and whether or not this "identity" could actually just be part of Banksy's latest misdirection...?

Timberlake, Afroman, The Bachelorette & Heat 2

Famous people sure can get in to a lot of trouble, can't they? There are so many ways for celebrities to get blown up in the problematic minefield, you'd think they'd actively try to avoid any trouble with the law. However, sometimes these Venn Diagrams overlap, and sometimes we get some truly jaw-dropping stories out of it. So this week, Kate talks us through the latest updates regarding Justin "The World Tour" Timberlake and his recent run-ins with authority, while Rory delves into Afro "Because I Got High" Man and the bonkers situation involving him and federal agents. Following that, Kate pulls back the curtain on the staggering messiness going on behind-the-scenes with the latest season of The Bachelorette and why the upcoming season has been completely pulled from schedules, plus how it could put a certain fanny fluttering lady further into the spotlight. And then Rory talks all things Heat 2, the long-awaited sequel to "one of the best movies ever made" (or so says the biggest film bro in your life), and if it is possible to re-enact one of the main reasons why people loved the original movie in the first place. If you, lovely listeners, have something in the world of culture you'd love us to chat about, you can email us at culturepigs@poddleaudio.com [culturepigs@poddleaudio.com].

SNL UK, Box Office Cheat Codes & Euphoria S3 Drama

It has been a WEEK since we last spoke to you - The Oscars! Paddy's Day! Mother's Day! - but we will be talking about absolutely NONE of that. Instead, with the imminent arrival of Saturday Night Live debuting its UK spin-off, Kate and Rory do a deep dive on the history of SNL in the States, whether this kind of comedy can survive and thrive on this side of the Atlantic, and what we should really expect from a show that people already seem to tolerate more than actually like... After that, Rory looks into some recent news around Hollywood productions and box office rumblings. Specifically, how the head of Pixar announced that their movies wouldn't be the source for "hundreds of millions of dollars worth of therapy", seemingly forgetting that most kids are, in fact, first traumatised by cinema. The Land Before Time? An American Tail?? Bambi?!?! This also goes directly in the face of a new study that unearths what sort of movies audiences are really paying to go to see on the big screen... Following that, Kate takes us behind the scenes on the upcoming season of Euphoria, which will arrive on HBO over four years since the divisive second season. Since then, the show's stars - including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Jacob Elordi, Maude Apatow, Hunter Schafer, Colman Domingo, Austin Abrams - have become huge stars, and the show's creator, Sam Levinson, has delivered The Idol, one of the worst-reviewed TV shows of the decade. And, if rumours are to be true, things were not super chill during the production of this new third season...
