Hyped!

A podcast for the culturally curious that turns a critical eye on some of the most-hyped plays, books, films and music in recent years and asks where they came from and what they tell us about culture today. Zoe Strimpel is a historian of gender and intimacy, Sunday Telegraph columnist and sincere contrarian. Tom Stammers is a fair-minded historian of 19th century France and a lecturer in European history at Durham University - who nonetheless knows how to turn the screw when necessary. They've been yammering about culture together since university.

    Dune 2

    It's big, it's weird, it's sci-fi and Zoe and Tom fell utterly under its spell. They discuss its political and religious overtones as well as its place in contemporary cinema.

    Macbeth (Ralph Fiennes) & Succession

    An unlikely pairing? Or an obvious one. Zoe and Tom consider the big ole Macbeth at Doc X with Monsieur Fiennes in the title role, alongside Succession, a contemporary take on a Shakespearean theme - which Zoe finally got round to watching. And.. well, hated.

    Cyborg Women of Hollywood: Barbie and Poor Things

    Tom and Zoe discuss two very different propositions about women. Or is that "women"? One is a cartoonish pastiche starring a Mattel doll; the other a Frankenstein's monster. Guess which Zoe and Tom preferred?

  4. Napoleon the movie

    Napoleon the movie

    Tom is literally a historian of Napoleon, and Zoe knew shockingly little about the short and angry man. Both squirmed their way through for different reasons: listen to why on this jaunty exploration of Tom's passion area - and the plague of filmic disappointment.

    Beyonce's Renaissance tour, London

    Tom and Zoe got last-minute tickets; Tom was ecstatic, Zoe was skeptical. But the show blew both of their minds. Even so, this is Hyped! Join Zoe and Tom as they debate some of the messaging – but also the mixed messaging – of Queen Bey.

  6. Richard Wagner's Rheingold, English National Opera

    Richard Wagner's Rheingold, English National Opera

    Zoe wants to hate Wagner. Tom has always loved him. They discuss a recent performance at the ENO, in which Zoe, against her will and expectation, finds herself charmed and amused. But is it ok to like Wagner operas? Does it make you a sort of bad person? Or, as Tom reckons, is Wagner the pinnacle of modern culture - deserving of being adored by all, always and forever? Join them as they make their way through an analysis of this splendid, budget performance.

  7. Tár: the year's most pretentious – or is it genius – movie?

    Tár: the year's most pretentious – or is it genius – movie?

    Lydia Tár is a world-famous conductor who gets embroiled in a number of messes both internal and external; professional and private. She's weird. She's amoral. She's refined and unrelenting and unstinting. And boy is she good at conducting classical music. Todd Field's much-buzzed film goes off the deep end more than once, stylistically and every other way. Join Zoe and Tom as they work out whether this is a work of pure genius, or a totally pretentious disaster. Or a bit of both.

    The White Lotus, Season 2

    "This is the best TV I have ever seen!" – Zoe on the Taormina-based second season of the smash hit written by  Mike White for HBO. Join her and Tom as they pick apart something for which the hype is truly deserved, peeling back the layers of subterfuge, sexual economies, powerplay, irony, mystery, danger and, of course, Sicilianness. There are a few spoilers, so ideally if you're gonna watch, watch first.
