What came first? The music or the misery? High Fidelity is a dive into the neurotic world of Rob Gordon, a record store owner with commitment issues, a killer vinyl collection, and a knack for top-five lists.

Check out this special 100th episode complete with some of our own top 5s!!!

Amy Liptrot’s memoir is hard-hitting to say the least. Nora Fingscheidt’s 2024 film adaptation forces one to think about addiction - what drives the journey to sobriety is Rona’s relationship with the land and the sea, the intersectionality between the two, and how our human consciousness fits in. To analyse yourself, you must take yourself out of yourself—like a seal out of water.
