01 The Incongruent
Hosts: Stephen King & Arjun Radeesh
WHAT THE PODCAST IS ABOUT: We are a student-run podcast launched from Middlesex University’s journalism department during the Covid-19 lockdown. We feature a weekly chat show where we discuss random topics with our classmates, and expert interviews.
WHY DID YOU START THIS SHOW? We were in lockdown and were unable to celebrate the end of our first year. So our lecturer decided to run a podcast with us. We had a lot of fun and received good feedback on our initial content so we continued and developed from there.
WHY SHOULD PEOPLE LISTEN TO IT? If you like tea, we spill tonnes of it! This is raw youth power. If you are interested in what young people did during the lockdown, then this is your chance to be a fly on the wall. We have also interviewed some wonderful people, including Netflix filmmaker Asri Bendacha and DJ Bliss and Mina Liccione.
MAIN TAKEAWAYS FROM WORKING ON THE PODCAST? We are still extremely proud of every show - but listening back to ourselves we can hear what we did wrong. But these mistakes were unavoidable, and it’s just about putting in the hours to practice and perfect.

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
