Music, Movies, and Books

I have a pretty eclectic taste in music, everything from Skepta to Otis Redding, Talking Heads and The Beatles,

I love films and I spend a ton of money going to independent cinemas.

My favourite book is The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter by Carson Mccullers. And I'll read anything by George Orwell, W.E.B Du Bois, Dorothy Whipple, Alice Walker, Patrick Hamilton and Maya Angelou

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook (fairly well) and have deep conversations on extremely varied topics, but will mainly be good at sociologically dissecting Drake lyrics.
