Juvenalia is a pop culture nostalgia show where Alan Maguire, Sarah Maria Griffin, and Andrea Cleary invite interesting people to tell them about something they were obsessed with when they were young; how they felt about it then and how they feel about it now. We've talked about books, films, tv shows, musicians, computer games; we're interested in it all! It's nice, you'll like it.

episode 179: 179: The Princess Bride with Aoife Barry
Writer and broadcaster Aoife Barry returns to the podcast and she’s brought one of the big topics, one we assumed would have come up at some point in the previous 178 episodes but it’s here now and that’s the important thing. It’s Rob Reiner’s The Princess Bride! We enthuse wildly about the film before jumping into a discussion about the types of films Hollywood is willing to make now. It’s a great hour.
Aoife is @SweetOblivion26. Aoife’s book Social Capital, which is excellent, is out now.
Alan is @alan_maguire. He does a bit of standup but Juvenalia is his main thing right now.
Sarah is @griffski. Her books are in all good bookshops. Her newsletter is at griffnotes.ghost.io
