The Content Club - #2
It’s a lot isn’t it.
So let’s take a break from all that masculine energy, diversity advancement being binned and AI-stealing the world bizniz. Let’s talk about what’s helping us kick-back and unplug. Welcome to the….

What’s stopping you from going to bed on time? What’s made you get off the train one stop too late? What’s keeping you content? Here are some of my recommendations. Let me know yours in the comments. 👇
⭐ 𝐒𝐦𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐡 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 – 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲
A hidden gem this one, better heard than watched IMO. A funny podcast all about the best and worst Reddit posts. Particular favourites include ‘Am I the Asshole’ stories. They read, they discuss, they decide, you decide and if you’re lucky, there’s a story update. Is there a UK version? I’d love to know.
DEFY Media
⭐ 𝐀 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧 – 𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐬
I love the beautiful awkwardness of Jesse Eisenberg. Director, writer, actor and Simon Amstell lookalike – he’s amazing. Culkin (my favourite Culkin, outside of Christmas) is the guy you most want to hang out with and escape all in one scene. They are great together. I wanted it to be a series though. It’s a sweet watch. (Sidenote: nobody puts baby in the corner.)
Searchlight
⭐ 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐲𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 – 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦
His bio is spot on. ‘Ten Second Songs. Motivational Metal. Cute Aggression’. He reads out fan comments via the spirit of death metal. He’s been around for ages and it’s working for him.

Lovely storytelling podcast, with voice over from Bolton’s Maxine Peake. As a lover of music and Joy Division this was a welcomed find. Also on YouTube.
Cup And Nuzzle
⭐ 𝐖𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 – 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐓𝐮𝐛𝐞
Podcasts really are having their day in the sun. Audio / Visual / long form / social cut downs which are interesting and promote at the same time. Ahh content distribution gold. All you need is a handsome, well-known host like Paul C Brunson (from MAFS of course) and some open and honest guests; what you mean like Pink PVC trousers, hip wiggling Pete Wicks? Put it on the boil for 1hr 50 minutes and voila – you have an algorithm loving, content feast. Yummy.
Flight Studio
⭐ 𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐧_𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 – 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦
Funny Irish bearded guy comments on the craziness of the internet. From AI fried eggs turning into birds to glitter gravy. He’s gonna tell you what he really thinks, to be sure.
