Ep 96: Dear England and Couples Therapy

from Refigure Hosted by Lo Fi Arts

Refigure episode 96. Chris and Rifa watch two TV shows on the BBC iPlayer: the fourth season of Showtime's NYC-based reality show Couples Therapy with Dr Orna Guralnik, which gets as close as television can to the reality of a psychotherapist's process, and the hit BBC drama series built from James Graham's West End play Dear England, documenting Gareth Southgate's time as England men's football manager and his changes to the culture of the team, built on Joseph Fiennes' startlingly accurate portrayal of Southgate. In 'what you reading for?' Chris is reading Steve Hanley's memoir of his time in the band The Fall, The Big Midweek, while Rifa is reading David Bramwell's psychedelic counter-culture adventure-slash-memoir The Haunted Moustache, which has recently been made into a film. The lovely badges in this week's episode artwork were made by Holly Swain, we spotted them at her Brighton Open House exhibition, she was one of the most striking makers we saw, the whole month of Open Houses (we bought quite a bit of her stuff). Thanks so much for listening, we hugely appreciate your ears. Find us on Insta @refigureUK.
