In the latest episode of the Nostalgia podcast series, Chris Deacy, Reader in Theology and Religious Studies, interviews Alvise Sforza Tarabochia, Lecturer in Italian in the Department of Modern Languages.
In this episode, the pair discuss topics including black metal, wanting to be a surgeon, the big ‘what if?’ questions, the dangers of living someone else’s dream, ‘Star Wars’ and ‘Spaceballs’, the Pink Panther cartoons, gender binaries, conformity, having a wild Religious Studies teacher at school, the Church of Satan (and whether it can be classified as a religion), why Alvise has a problem with the passing of time, and why the most radical ‘metal’ version of himself would be disappointed.
