What makes a meme and why do they matter? /w VomCruise | Ep#1 Series 2 AMF Podcast

What is a meme? Where did they come from? Can we define them? Should we even attempt too? We discuss all these questions on this episode of the AMF podcast with Instagram meme slinger VomCruise. VomCruise has built up a formidable reputation for putting out “no-fucks given” content that isn’t for the faint hearted. The ArchBishop of Banterbury can do one, Vom’s account is for people who like their humour bleak, Royals dead and Hasbullas by the bucket load. Blog founder Liam caught up with Vom to chat about how the account got started, why it’s important to keep platforms like Instagram free of censorship and why memes have become so pervasive in the 21st century. They also cover important issues like: why all Royals need to fuck off, What Vom would do with ten million pounds (it involves a lot of cocaine); and who’d win in a fight, Captain Tom or Hasbulla. They also talk about the current things Vom is working on and he shares his thoughts for the future of memes and the world in general. FYI it’s all pretty bleak, but also a laugh so tune in yeah!
