Wait But Why, Young Love and The Prodigy

I'm reading... Wait But Why

Interesting, in-depth and humorous blog posts on all sorts of topics from US Presidents, to artificial intelligence (scary), to the latest on Elon Musk's various ventures (which left me feeling more optimistic about the future).

I'm watching... Young Love

YouTube series in mockumentary style, showcasing a bunch of young Aussie talent. If you enjoyed People Like Us or Small Tales and True, then this will hit the spot.

I'm listening to... The Prodigy

Their latest, The Day Is My Enemy, doesn't have too many surprises if you've listened to their last couple of albums, but there are enough driving, crunchy beats to keep me happy. Standout tracks for me are Destroy and Get Your Fight On.

This week

I'm reading... Stephen King's "The Stand"

After reading "The Talisman" back in the mid-80s, this is only the second King book I've read (gasp!). I watched the mini-series back in the 90s, but thankfully my memory leaves plenty of gaps to be filled.

I'm watching... Orphan Black S3

A rare show which is broadcasting on free-to-air TV in sync with the rest of the world, so I don't have to dodge spoilers. After watching the first 2 seasons on DVD in under a week last year, waiting so long between eps is hard! Enjoying this third season just as much as I'd hoped, still springing plenty of surprises.

I'm listening to... American Pinup

I've been enjoying their rockabilly since the debut 2011 album "Strange Creatures" and through 2013's "Change Machine" and the promise of an upcoming new EP has me refreshing my memory. For a sample of their tunes, check out this recent live studio session.

Hopefully this will be the start of more regular posts on my consumption of pop culture :)
