  • EP7: NFTs, or Art for Nerds
    Apr 8 2021
    Did we lift the curse? Can anyone hear us? The Spoiled Broth is back, baby! In this long-awaited episode we discuss the latest technological craze, non-fungible tokens. More specifically, their relevancy for the arts-sphere. Join us as we explain how, (and why) NFTs are taking over the internet. We explore this digital selling landscape, and debate its pros and cons for artists. There's also a fair amount of ranting about James Charles, Elon Musk and his crypto-currency-cyborg family. What else would you expect?

  • EP6: Corporate Art Style Wants to Steal Your Data
    Feb 14 2021

    If you're anything like us, you're sick and tired of seeing these gangly-armed flat illustrations all over the internet. From Facebook, Google to YouTube. Tiny heads! Never static! Always happy! In this episode, we discuss how Alegria (also known as Big Tech Art Style, Globohomo, and Corporate Memphis) has become synonymous with the illegal behaviour of harmful corporations. Jemimah also tells us about her early obsession with Club Penguin.

  • EP5: Culture That Saved 2020
    Jan 10 2021

    Happy New Year, here's part two of our special in-person episode! We chew over all the cultural content we enjoyed consuming this past year. Hold back your horror, we're actually being mostly positive in this one. Except for when we talk about Bubbles from Yahaira's Animal Crossing town. If you want some recommendations for YouTube channels, podcasts, books and music; then this is the right portion of the Spoiled Broth for you.

  • EP4: Cultural Lowlights of 2020
    Dec 31 2020

    In this New-Year's-eve-two-part episode we come at you live from Yahaira's bedroom. Clap your hands, it's our very first podcast recorded in the same room and not across an ocean. It was a strange year marked by many an unusual event. We take you through our cultural highlights and lowlights of 2020. Join us in this first part for all the worst bits that defined this year (in our humble opinions). We bully celebrities, kink shame YouTubers and drink glühwein. It's a mild chaos. Keep an eye open for the (more positive) second part in the new year!

  • EP3: Exit Through the Grift Shop
    Dec 20 2020

    Get ready, this is a big beef-filled episode of art-world anger. After many of you requested it, the duo is back to justify our battle against Banksy. We reply to a listener submitted commentary on our, controversial, previous episode. Let’s just say, we get all art-critic on you. John Lennon, art making in capitalism, and the question of morality all get a mention.

  • EP2: Banksy is Worse than Brexit
    Dec 3 2020

    In this second episode we have a natter about how Brexit will affect arts and culture, and the hardships of being an artist in the current political climate. Most importantly, of course, we speak about our undying hatred of Banksy. Warning, we get angry and loud. This episode is, to be frank, a jumble of confusion, and unanswered worries. It took a long time to edit because we had to cut all the recordings of us having mental breakdowns due to the topic. Yahaira also tells us the story of the time she was “flashed” by a bus driver.

  • EP1: Origin Story, Incel Culture and Performative Activism
    Nov 15 2020
    Welcome to the first episode of The Spoiled Broth podcast, thank you for lending us your ears! In this episode, we nervously discuss our current thoughts on the performative activism of cultural institutions, identity politics of artists, and, somehow, incel culture. Between all of our juicy hot takes, we also introduce ourselves and the origin story of The Spoiled Broth! It's all a bit of first-time recording fun with some strange noises thrown in.
