    On today's show, I take a dive into the most British of genres - Britpop! Taking iconic tracks by the Beatles, the Kinks, Blur, Oasis and others, I trace the development of British pop-rock, and explore how this genre of music reflects the nation's political mood, class struggles, and the spirit of the youth. If Britain sounds like one thing, it's most certainly Britpop.

    On today's episode, my guest isn't an exchange student. Rather, Brenna is my Canadian roommate, born and bred right here in Ontario. Join us as we sip our Tim Horton's coffees, chat about the essence of Canadian culture, and listen to some classic tunes from the Great White North.

    Welcome back! To bring in the new year, my guest on this week's episode is - myself! After showcasing the musical taste of my mates from around the world, I was thrilled to be able to finally share my own favourite songs that remind me of home. I chat about the highs and lows of my time living abroad so far, the strange world of British universities, and the allure of a future life in London.

    Today, I'm joined by my Kiwi mate Will as we discuss the tracks that remind him of Auckland, New Zealand. We talk about the sibling-like relationship between Australia and NZ, the role of the Indigenous communities in New Zealand's political structure, and whether the fruit has anything to do with why Kiwis are called Kiwis.

    This week, I'm joined by my fellow Brit, Zen. We use Zen's high-energy, upbeat musical choices as a lens to discuss student life in Britain, London's vibrant LGBTQ+ culture, and whether British life is really that similar to Downton Abbey!
