A snappy and varied episode today as Rhiannon gives a rave review of murder thriller ‘How to Kill Your Family’ by Bella Mackie. Alex has been syphoning articles from Emma Gannon’s newsletter and Rhiannon has been raging at Laurence Fox’s Twitter. Alex deconstructs the Moulin Rouge and Cruella and Rhiannon has been rating supes, otherwise known as superheroes. Plus some nourishment for struggling creatives in the form of Amie McNee.
