Britainology 5: The Cult of the Legend
Added 2020-10-17 12:07:20 +0000 UTCWe brought on Riley to discuss a phenomenon as eternally British as bad weather itself: the legend. Who are British legends? What makes them act this way? How do you create a taxonomy of figures to distinguish between the Essex Geezer, the Entrepreneurial Legend, the High Street Hard Man, and Tim Westwood? Well, we gave it our best go.

Strong "guy who talks too much in seminar" vibes from Riley on this one

At the time I was just impressed that the UK has a popular Hip Hop Radio show as rap wasn't popular in Australia at the time. But I was really shocked when I found out a few years ago that Westwood was still kicking around. I though he would have faded into obscurity by now, but the UK likes to hold on their celebrities.
