Welcome to Episode 14 of the Old Boys Book Club, where we entreat you to enjoy chapter 32 of Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins.This week we learn how the hosts have been celebrating their new found freedom, tearing along the country lanes, top down in the old XK8, before exploring the world of Johnson's creation:This week, we have an suspiciously errant ambulance, edging its way without proper checks, towards Westminster Hall, which as eagle-eared listeners will know, is currently playing host to the president. Can anyone stop the carnage? Enter Pickel.--Join the Old Boys Book Club - a weekly reading group led by Jonny Lennard and Andrew Mole, Anthropologists by training, cynics by choice, determined to understand one of modern societies oldest (and most incongruous) tropes - the Old Boy.We have reached peak 'Old Boy' with Johnson, Trump, Farage et al leading the world towards a leather-clad man cave of environmental catastrophe. But what exactly is an Old Boy?In what will almost certainly be called the pinnacle of modern satire, but is as yet unreviewed, Jonny and Andy introduce the world to Old Boy after Old Boy in the best way they know: by decoding the literature they have willingly created.
