Available for over a year

Welcome to the kennel of the algorithm bloodhounds, bred to sniff out the hottest takes for the chronically online. Columnist Raven Smith, and author Joel Golby, are here to provide you with their cheat sheet for what to think about culture right now. They’ll tell you what they love - but, more importantly, they’ll tell you what's a Please Don’t. Got a hot take? Or even a hot take on Raven and Joel’s hot takes? Email ravenandjoel@bbc.co.uk — Has Ross Kemp jumped off the Celebrity Traitors deep end? Ross, if you’re reading this, you okay hun? Raven and Joel would just like to check in, because Britain’s favourite hard-man has become possibly the most paranoid Faithful ever on this year’s Celebrity Traitors. The castle seems to have made him frightened of *checks notes* hats put on him by Bella Ramsey, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock needing a jumper. Raven and Joel think it’s an incredible booking, are fascinated by whatever the hell Richard E. Grant is up to, and have a pitch for the big bosses - is it time for Traitors All Stars? P.S. Traitor Paul, if you’re reading this, call us. Specifically Raven. Is Florence Pugh’s new big Steinbeck drama a return to form for Netflix? It’s official - the Mr Beast-ification of TV is here. Between his show on Amazon Prime Video, and that new Willy Wonka-themed game show featuring the AI-generated voice of Gene Wilder from beyond the grave, it’s a little bleak. Enter stage left Netflix’s new adaptation of John Steinbeck’s East Of Eden, featuring The Pugh. A multi-part series, where Florence acts the hell out of some very dirty sets - it’s gritty and provocative. But is it a Please Do? Raven loves how morally grey it is, Joel uses the word “grime” a lot, and is it all a big sign for the big streamers to make more TV that makes us feel things? Plus, we’ve had an email confirming how Jacob Elordi smells, and you’ll not be disappointed; does Olivia Colman just live in our heads rent-free (yes, what of it); and are phones ruining Glastonbury? Raven’s got some very big feelings about everyone’s favourite visit to Worthy Farm, and Joel thinks he should just clear out his Instagram follows Raven and Joel are back next Thursday. Please Don’t is a Reduced Listening production for BBC Sounds.
