Ep.233 - Spider-Verse & Topping The Charts

In a week where:

  1. The five victims in the OceanGate sub implosion will be honoured with two museum ceremonies.
  2. Russian PMC Wagner Group stage a one-day mutiny. 
  3. A new suspect is named in Stephen Lawrence murder.
  4. Home Office declare it costs £63K more to remove migrants than keep them.
  5. Senior doctors in England vote to strike over pay.

In Film: (6:46) "Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse has been out for over a month now, but it's still on the mind of many and rightly so because there's so much to love about it.

In Music: (16:56) As of this week, a Hip-Hop album hasn't hit No.1 in the US Billboard 200 by the month of June, the first time that has happened since 1998. But does it even matter?

In the 1st of two Society segments: (29:12) Last week had a plethora of Windrush Day celebrations and I wanted to do my bit in taking note of that, albeit a week later. The 1st of two highlights the Windrush Generation's efforts in Civil Rights.

Lastly, in the 2nd Society segment: (45:19) The 2nd Windrush related piece - and more specific - how they were essential in laying the foundation for the transport system we have today.
