Pop Culture Radio Show

The Pop Culture Radio show goes out live on Kilburn to Kensall Radio (www.k2kradio.com) on the first wednesday of the month at 8pm. With the help of a special guest we explore the murky underbelly and the oft-neglected shiny over-belly of popular culture. One month it might be the Bechtel test, the next it could be Roger Moore's fruity-face. High-art, low-brow we love it all. Come and say hello at all the usual social media sites: www.twitter.com/pcultradio www.facebook.com/PopCultureRadioShow www.tumblr.com/blog/pcultradio
