Welcome to our podcast, where no idea is too sacred to be questioned, and no hypocrisy too small to escape notice. Rooted in Periyar’s rationalist vision, we speak for equality, humanity, and reason, while taking a scalpel to the pretence of power, the absurdities of cinema and pop culture, and the comfortable lies we tell ourselves. This isn’t entertainment for the faint-hearted it’s critique with teeth.

Dominic is prepared to put up with the babysitter his family have saddled him with. But if they think she's going to tame him, they have another thing coming.

Manche Menschen liebt man oder hasst man – auf June trifft beides gleichzeitig zu. June Mayberry ist in einer beschissenen Lage: Ihre aus einer Alkohollaune heraus gegründete Detektei kommt nicht richtig in Schwung, zu ihrem pubertierenden Sohn, den sie nur einmal die Woche sieht, fehlt ihr jeder Zugang, und mit der verschwundenen Lehrerin, mit deren Suche sie beauftragt wird, war sie wenige Wochen zuvor noch im Bett.

Mary Alice Brannigan doesn’t believe in the supernatural. Nor does she expect to find that Dreamland, the decaying amusement park she’s been hired to restore, is a prison for the five Untouchables, the most powerful demons in the history of the world.

Wild Pets follows Iris, Ezra and Nance in the years after university. They fall in and out of bed with each other, reread The Art of War, grieve the closing of Fabric and write book proposals on the history of salt, while submerging their nights in drink and drugs.

So why are they still swimming desperately against the tide?

With Olympic tryouts on the horizon, the last thing 19-year-old Kinsley Bryant needs to add to her plate is Liam Wilder. He's a professional soccer player, America's favorite bad-boy, and has all the qualities of a skilled panty-dropper. A face that makes girls weep - check. Abs that can shred Parmesan cheese (the expensive kind) - check. Enough confidence to shift the earth's gravitational pull - double check. Not to mention Liam is strictly off limits. Forbidden. Her coaches have made that perfectly clear.
