TOP 5 STATE OF THE NATION* ADDRESSES ft. Mark Conroy
*And the nation in question is the good 'ol US of A. As you've no doubt noticed by now, Donald John Trump is the President-elect of the United States of America. Cast aside the numerous valid and alarming reasons for this scenario not to come to pass, for it is indeed a reality once again. If you're feeling uneasy, well, you're not alone. And so NO ENCORE has no real choice but to get a bit political this week as the returning Mark Conroy takes us through his hand-picked audio that best sums up the current state of Stateside affairs right now. There's also a news section that thankfully is considerably less political, and some major personal updates, too. Enjoy? ACT ONE: Dave went to see Max Richter in concert, then later wound up in hospital. The two events are unconnected, he thinks. Meanwhile, Adam joins the fourth estate!ACT TWO (25:25): A busy news section features the passing of legendary producer and notable quotable Quincy Jones, Robert Smith's commitment to the goth lifestyle, Charli XCX's literary triumph, Olivia Rodrigo's dating advice, the rise of entertainment-focused 'cigfluencers', and awkward onstage happenings involving Morrissey and Thom Yorke. ACT THREE (1:02:20): Top 5 State of the Nation Addresses. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
