Ready yourselves for the spontaneous overflow of powerful emotions recollected in tranquillity…plus a load of shitting duck satire. In this episode we’re taking Romanticism from the sublime to the ridiculous with Dr Andrew McInnes, lead investigator on the AHRC-funded project The Romantic Ridiculous. We rate the ‘Big Six’ of Romantic poetry in terms of fuckboi-ness and  identify the Brexiteers among beloved authors. All this while remaining entirely unREF-able - in spite of Andy’s best efforts. You can follow Andy @drbeard79 and the Romantic Ridiculous project blog at romanticridiculous.wordpress.com.

We demand the immediate release of the butthole cut of Cats 2019. For research.
