Really Important Fictional Things

We’re back! This week we jump into Netflix’s phenomenal, hilarious, and touching (in more ways than one) show Sex Education. We truly can’t recommend it enough as it leads with curiosity over judgement, has wildly impressive acting, and shows us an aspirational world that would be a joy to live in. Before that, er talk about the myriad of things we watched over our mini break, including, but not limited to, The Ultimatum, Normal People, Julia, and Minx.

Next week we’re talking about the iconic Jurassic Park.
