The Saturday Night Carnival

SATURDAY 20TH SEPTEMBER 2025
Episode 2: "In which I get heated over student politics"

I may have had a little bit of a rant in this one. Oop.
I was feeling in the mood for a bit of hyperpop when I prepped the playlist, and I feel it went pretty hard.
[Correction]: During my little screed, I noted that I took issue with cuts that had recently been put through at the time within the OUSA. It has now come to my attention, thanks to the letter I sent to Critic, that I misconstrued what I had been told regarding that specifically. For more details see the letters in Critic Te Ārohi, Issue 23.

Episode 1: "Firing on all rotors"

Goodness was there a lot of international geopolitics the week gone! Musical allusions were made to some of the events of the week, and I ran out of prepared songs, and had to scramble to find more, making some picks from the R1 music library to explore some unfamiliar melodies!
