Bike Runner: The Director's Cut

The Critical Banter Podcast

Hold the press, Kushagra actually joins us this week, fresh from receiving the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine. Despite him suddenly developing a third eye, Kush is still very much the same as he immediately launches into one of his trademark, largely unhinged and rather unprovoked, rants on cyclists.

Rohit then divulges an epiphany he had during the week about his apparent lack of fine motor skills and wonders when he will learn “dad dick energy.”

The “Back to School” quizzes continue and this week is all about English. Sen tests all the boys' knowledge of texts they (should’ve) studied in high school as well as an investigation into the conventions of literary techniques.

To end this week, we introduce a new segment, “Urban Legends,” where we discuss some of the more supernatural myths and folklore. This week we begin with a discussion on two local urban legends, Picton Tunnel and the Wakehurst Parkway, before Kushagra shares his own spooky experience.

Also this week: Facebook, pathetic fallacy, Rick Deckard, invisible ink and Ghostbusters.

Segments this week:

The Logue: Tired of reaching around each other (at least on the podcast), the boys have instead decided to reach around the week’s news stories, events and viral trends.

Back to School: To celebrate the beginning of a new academic year, the boys are put through their paces to determine if they still remember anything they were taught in high school.

Urban Legends: From Bloody Mary to Slenderman, in this segment we explore and discuss some of the spookiest urban legends.
