Fruity Alexia
A comedy pop-culture podcast that's more Passion Pop than cultured.
Childhood friends Alexander and Alex rewatch television series from a more innocent time, remembering those last few moments before social media took over our lives.
Listen as two has-beens in their mid-thirties - torn between memories of being young hopefuls embarking on their own careers in entertainment, and the reality of where they have actually ended up - as they following along with the iconic reality shows that accidentally shaped the media landscape of the last 20 years.
