117 - Genevieve Jenner - It Was The Nineties, Things Were Happening With Fruits

Looks Unfamiliar is a podcast in which writer and occasional broadcaster Tim Worthington talks to a guest about some of the things that they remember that nobody else ever seems to.Joining Tim this time is writer Genevieve Jenner, who's tilting the high school soda vending machine in search of any trace of The Hilarious House Of Frightenstein, What A Way To Go! and karmically aware soft drink Fruitopia. Along the way we'll be debating whether Count Chocula is an appropriate breakfast option for 'special occasions', critically assessing Michael Powell's Xtro, shuddering at the thought of The Jim Rose Circus Sideshow's most repulsive exhibit and and revealing why the hippy trail is strewn with striking dustbins, cough medicine and Crown Court.You can also find Genevieve on Looks Unfamiliar talking about Boomerang, Over The Top, Bossa Nova, Thorazine Shuffle by Bongos Bass And Bob, Wizard’s Hall by Jane Yolen and OK Soda here, as well as Faerie Tale Theatre on The Golden Age Of Children's TV here.If you enjoy Looks Unfamiliar, you can help to support the show by buying us a coffee here. No there is no way in which it can be improved by Fruitopia.
