I'm over television. Not in an Amish kind of way, just in a 'this is a waste of my time and an insult to my intellect' kind of way.
Here's a BRILLIANT book that EVERYBODY should read.
Well, actually, he's released a second book now, so here's TWO etc etc see above :)
Craig Schuftan is a genious, as is his writting style and just absolutely EVERYTHING about this book. As you can tell, i'm pretty fond of it. It's this jam packed, comical, witty, anthology of knowledge that is spewing out on to you !!
Hey ! Nietzche ! Leave Them Kids Alone ! is Schuftan's second publification, and instead of delving back through multiple aspects of culture and history, he shifts his focus onto the old and new Romantics, like Lord Byron and the likes. Another very interesting read.
The Culture Club actualy started out as a podcast, and if you can find them on itunes they are a great way to get 2.5 minute snippets of hard knowledge into your brain through your ears. His new segment is called Acceptable In The 80s -
And you can find the podcasts HERE.
So if you're looking for something to sink your teeth into, or even a book to read a chapter at a time, i must insist you give these ones a go :)
Have you read anything good lately?
