3 - When They Go High, We Go Low - Part 1

In this special two-part episode, your hosts share their favorite highbrow and lowbrow entertainments. Feeling bored and also fancy? Looking for some sophisticated recommendations to impress your intellectual friends? Part one has you covered with an extensive discussion of Meghann and Kelsey's highbrow obsessions. These aren't guilty pleasures--we're talking prestige TV, live theatre, and documentaries that aren't Forensic Files. Don't worry, there will still be monsters, murder, and mayhem, just with a British accent. Make sure to subscribe so you won't miss Part two next week--featuring My Good Bad Taste's shamelessly lowbrow favorites.

Topics include: Getting death threats on The Twitter, Parody Twitter accounts, Nihilism (yep, again!), Oktoberfest, Everything that isn't a Kenny Chesney concert, Being old enough to order wine in a restaurant, The one wine you should NEVER bring to a friend's house, Literally why do we watch these documentaries, Quit watching Narcos and learn some hippos, Theaters and Theatre, What you should and shouldn't see when you're in London, Benedict Cumberbatch vs. Johnny Lee Miller, Is comedy highbrow or lowbrow?, Henry Cavill's butt specifically, Tudor butts in general, English history that isn't World War Two, All the Lizzes of history, Being on team Windsor, and getting up early to watch royal weddings.
