Refigure E18 – Comedy & Tragedy

Chris and Rifa's weekly dive into the arts, culture, tech and diversity. This week, we watch a bunch of new and returning British TV sitcoms including Fleabag, Partridge, Home and Derry Girls. Rifa goes on a bell hooks-inspired poetry workshop and mourns 80s youth telly icon Magenta Divine, while Chris accidentally uncovers an audio archive of his Great Uncle Reg's first-hand account of the trenches in World War One. Chris is reading an article about chimpanzees in The Atlantic and Rifa is reading Matt Haig's Reasons To Stay Alive. We did watch HBO's extraordinary Leaving Neverland and were originally planning to discuss Michael Jackson but decided it was too heartbreaking.
