The Culture Quest


Nov 29, 2020

Our humble adventurers find new ways to stretch the limits of their comfort zones - this time, they’re listening to War by U2, a band that they never really liked, despite never really getting to know them. Will they be able to keep an open mind throughout these two weeks? Will they end up falling in love with the album? Will they change their mind about U2? Will they be able to think of a fourth clickbaity line for the show-notes? All that and some more, on today’s Culture Quest episode!
