it's beautiful this time of year
The Red Room // 22.05.12 // It's Beautiful This Time of Year
On this week's show, we reminisced about high school protests gone awry, discussed the expression "breadwinner", and pondered about people with slogans on their T-shirts.
We also debated on whether or not sneakers on women was a good look, observed that people are becoming generally less aware of their surroundings, and discussed the phrase "it's beautiful this time of year."
We also pondered about why society looks down upon the indifferent, reminisced about toasting bread over the fireplace, and debated on what the big deal was about the beach.
We also discussed our upcoming gig: Redwings, Hivver, and No Comet at Stereo, Glasgow, on 23 May. More information here.

burning the midnight oil
The Red Room // 15.05.12 // Burning the Midnight Oil
On this weeks show, we debated on when a "haircut" becomes just "hair", named our favourite sitcoms featuring dogs, and told a story about finding a moth in a cigarette.
We also bemoaned the (admittedly first world) problem of YouTube addiction, discussed hilariously-named Jewish foods, and lamented at the difficulty of making hash browns.
We also debated on why anyone would still use fax machines, pondered the meaning of "bunk" in relation to "debunk", and revealed our yearning to enter the field of mentorship.

swifty fuckwits
The Red Room // 08.05.12 // Swifty Fuckwits
On today's episode, we discussed childhood fears; ranging from hairdressers that cut off ears, to dentists who delight in inflicting pain. We also discussed Watership Down and its effect on our childhood minds, our disdain for health and safety regulations, and pondered the mystery of why rich people love golf.
We also speculated on the subjects of getting high on dentist's laughing gas, cinema advertisements and their prevalence for alcohol and automobiles, and whether or not the "jumper-over-the-shoulders" look was a look worth bringing back or not.
We also reviewed Holy Mountain's recent album launch at Mono, Aidan Moffat and HEALTH's collaborative art exhibition #UNRAVEL, as well as Howard Hawk's Only Angels Have Wings, and Charles Vidor's Gilda.

The Red Room // 10.04.12 // Mispronunciations
On today's show, we discuss the privilege of having a "usual" at a restaurant, chance meetings with mysterious strangers, the phenomenon of singing while asleep, how certain fonts would speak if they were people, the consequences of staying awake for 24 hours straight, our opinions on modern art, and the revelation that shocked Twitter: the Titanic was based on a true story. We also review Jaques Tati's Play Time and Aki Kaurismäki's Le Havre.

have some faith in the red room
The Red Room // 31.01.12 // Have Some Faith in The Red Room
On this week's episode of The Red Room, we discussed a myriad of subjects, ranging from our love of the art-form known as the sitcom, how we would survive on a desert island, and our disdain at the book-repurposing movement.
We also discussed what our lives would be like if they took place inside a movie, reminisced about horrible train rides we've experienced, and expressed our annoyance about YouTube and Google Plus.
Also, since this week's show marked one year since we began putting on gigs, we took the opportunity to begin promoting our first gig of 2012: Tangles, theapplesofenergy, and Left of Venus at The Old Hairdressers on Wednesday 22nd February (tickets).
