Episode 25: Way to go Froggie - Old Boys Book Club, Boris Johnson's 72 Virgins

Let me dispel any confusion - there are no amphibians mentioned in this episode.As the pace quickens, the plot thickens, and publishing deadlines loom, Boris Johnson (the author) is running out of steam. Expect increased plot holes, lazy xenophobia, and un-concluded story lines as we enter the final few chapters of 72 Virgins.--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.
