Strange Currencies 7/9/2025: A new home at the narrm ngarrgu Library
About this episode
After a long break, Connor and Rob return with a wide-ranging chat: Connor’s unexpected dive into cricket, recent overseas travels, and a hefty Napoleon biography by David G. Chandler. The pair take on the ugly face of fascism close to home and abroad, before Rob relives the excruciating experience of sitting through graphic sex scenes in Ethan Coen’s Honey Don’t—with his eldest daughter beside him. Connor shares his MIFF highlights, the two clash over The Doors, Zappa, and Springsteen, and lament the shrinking space for film criticism. There’s also a birthday to celebrate (Connor's), and one burning question to answer: is Rob a deadbeat dad for spending Father’s Day recording a podcast?
