Episode 18 - Xmas Special

A lapsed quasi-satanist, a self-proclaimed science buff (with only a GCSE grade B in Physics) and a drug-addled lunatic attempt to navigate the irradiated wastelands and dung-hills of ignorance that is the Post-Truth Apocalypse. A smorgasbord of colourful language, drunken ramblings and the occasional "fact". Fact. Hosted by Ben, Gaz and Mike. This Christmas Eve the chaps attempt to get into the festive spirit like only the "Boys from the Apocalypse" can. Whilst partaking in perhaps a one too many celebratory glasses of sherry, they muse upon an apocalyptic Christmas, with such topics covered as the 'elf on a shelf' phenomenon, the Santa Claus deception, the commercialisation of Xmas, Xmas movies, Xmas tragedies, the origins of Boxing Day, a robotic metal band capable of music composition and the coming 'Trumpocalypse', as well as asking the question, will we one day replace our current deities with an all-knowing, all-seeing God-Head A.I., at whose cold, metallic feet we shall kneel and worship? Also, Santa's mythical antipodal traveling companion the half-goat, half-demon Krampus and Ben narrates to us the tale of his annual Christmas tradition of re-enacting Zulu in full splendor on his front lawn and his use of paid members of the homelessness community to play the encroaching heathen Zulu horde. www.facebook.com/cuttingthroughthebull [email protected] @cuttingthroughthebullpta Also on iTunes.
