Lowbrow Lowdown Podcast

Join Natasha and Damien as they wheeze-laugh their way through Pandemic Prose: self-published literature of coronavirus, the pandemic, lockdown and more.

If you’re thinking it’s mostly erotica, you would be right! Though we get our fair share of conspiracy, anti-vax, anti-mask pieces in the mix too.

Lowbrow Lowdown explores the cultural moment in front of us right now by reviewing how it manifests in pop, trash and pulp culture. Season 1 is all about pandemic prose, the self-published literature of coronavirus. COVID-19 has been at the centre of our lives here in Australia and around the world, and with the continuing debates about vaccination (please get vaccinated if you can), masks, lockdowns and science, this has naturally found its way into self-published literature on Amazon. Yes, it’s mostly erotica.

Join us for Season 1, all about pandemic prose. We’re reading it so you don’t have to. Who knows, you might be surprised by what we find!

In the Lowbrow Lowdown, Natasha and Damien dial into what’s happening around us, drink a glass (or two) of something and wheeze-laugh their way through the fabulous and the dastardly of pop, trash and pulp culture.

Covid Claus is Coming to Town (Kissing the Coronavirus Chronicles) – Lowbrow Lowdown

In our season finale, Natasha and Damien return to the incredible mind of M.J. Edwards with Covid Claus is Coming to Town (Kissing the Coronavirus Chronicles). A wild tale of COVID, Christmas and erotica. Christmas will never be the same after reading this erotic tome.Rating out of five masks:Natasha: 3/5 😷Damien: 3/5 😷More importantly, we introduce our next season of the Lowbrow Lowdown: Unpacking the Undead.Season 2 of the Lowbrow Lowdown is all about zombies. We will explore the hypothesis that zombie movies, TV series and books provide us with a snapshot of culture and society at the time of their creation.Damien and Natasha will explore the zeitgeist, through a trashy, undead lens that touches mostly upon horror, but will cross over into action, comedy, sci-fi, dystopian and apocalypse sub-genres. We can’t wait to watch (and in Damien’s case, rewatch) lots and lots of zombie flicks. And to share our laughter-filled opinions with you.
