Louis' Lockdown Lowdown

Owen Jones, best selling author of Chavs: The Demonisation of the Working Class and The Establishment, talks about class, COVID and the challenges of being young in modern Britain.  This was recorded before the death of George Floyd, so unfortunately it strays from the directly topical in that regard although, many of the links are intersectional and very relevant.  

This week, I talk to Elle Fanning about how she's surviving quarantine,  upcoming projects with her sister, and her upcoming Hulu show, The Great.(you'll find me a few scenes of The Great too!)

This week, I talk to the phenomenal musician Declan McKenna about his second album, Extinction Rebellion and Love Island (all the important stuff!). Declan captured the frustrations and ears of a generation through his politically charged first album, "What do you think about the car?".  Now, three years later, he is preparing to release his second album, "Zeros", on the 21st of August.  

This week I chat to first wave YouTuber, Luke Cutforth, about how YouTube is changing, schemas, and how to see the world as a better place.  

Amybeth McNulty,  best known for her portrayal of Anne in Netflix's 'Anne with an E', talks about the challenges of acting, dealing with online criticism and moving on from Anne.
