*UNLOCKED* Britainology 5: The Cult of the Legend

We brought on Riley to discuss a phenomenon as eternally British as bad weather itself: the legend. Who are British legends? What makes them act this way? How do you create a taxonomy of figures to distinguish between the Essex Geezer, the Entrepreneurial Legend, the High Street Hard Man, and Tim Westwood? Well, we gave it our best go.

This episode is from October 2020 so if anything is out of date, that is why!
