The Podcast Nobody Asked For

We’re heading back into the daylight nightmare to revisit grief, cults, questionable relationships, and one of the most uncomfortable group holidays ever committed to film. If you missed them first time, now’s your chance. If you’ve heard them already, you probably need the closure.Originally released 22/6/23Not that anybody asked but this week we pulled out our paint brushes and headed to Halsingland because we're talking about Midsommar, again. This year we were lucky enough to be joined by Nille Svennsson, one of the film's art directors, who spoke to us at length about his involvement in the movie and all things art. Expect codeine, non-Swedeish flowers and dancing until you're skeletons.You can find Nille's website hereBecome a friend of the podcast on Patreon and get bonus episodes and swagBuy merch over at TeepublicFollow us on InstagramFollow us on ThreadsFollow us on TikTok Hosted on Acast.

Expect The Girl From Ipanema, the surprising apperance of Ian's mum and a good, old fashioned clap-o-meter.If you want to get your hands on a tour tshirt you can find them here.Become a friend of the podcast on Patreon and get bonus episodes and swagBuy merch over at TeepublicFollow us on InstagramFollow us on ThreadsFollow us on TikTok Hosted on Acast.
