Deep and absorbing in-conversation in Whitechapel - thank you to everyone who came and debated the Swastika in pop music...
Another great talk from @DanielRachel69 in conversation with @seanhannam about this challenging and important book @Writeideafest So many questions

Thanks to @DanielRachel69 for a great interview at @Writeideafest on his new book,This Ain’t Rock ‘n’ Roll: Pop Music, the Swastika, and the Third Reich:out now on @WhiteRabbitBks .
Not an easy subject to deal with but an important one, and Daniel tackles it brilliantly.

Brilliant weekend rounded off for me by John Higgs and Robin Ince discussing Dr Who on the anniversry of its very first airing in 1963. I was apparently the only 1in the room who saw the first airing. It blew my mind. Massive shout out to all the volunteers. Support your library
