Ep.222 - Donald Glover & Nitrous Oxide

In a week where:

1. Trump is indicted.
2. Oscar Pistorius and Charles Bronson are denied parole.
3. Connecticut and LSU win NCAA National Basketball championships.
4. TikTok fined £12.7 million for UK Data Protection Breaches.
5. Finland becomes 31st member of NATO.

In TV: A friend asked me to watch Donald Glover's new show "Swarm". Whilst it's certainly something to evoke an opinion, I can't quite shake off and it's Glover's creative relationship with Black women.

In the 1st of two Society segments: Dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson has commented on Britain's ills for decades and with the recent reckoning of the Met Police and British policing as a whole, LKJ is keeping the pressure on.

In the 2nd Society segment: It's time for yet another moral panic! This time, it's the government's crackdown on Nos. But don't get it twisted, this isn't merely about curbing Anti-Social Behaviour, it's something bigger.

Lastly, in Life: I've always credited my creative endeavours for giving my life purpose, but for some, creative endeavours like Photography can save your mental health.

Thank you for listening! If you want to contribute to the show, whether it be sending me questions or voicing your opinion in any way, peep the contact links below and I'll respond accordingly. Let me know "What's Good?"
