95: Does British Culture Need Saving? W/ Lanre Bakare

Culture writer Lanre Bakare joins Ash and Moya in Manchester to talk about Black cultural identity outside of London, the precarious state of arts and nightlife around the UK, and the rise of ‘cultural deserts’ – as well as the unofficial launch of the ‘BAMÉ Army’. Plus: a dilemma about a difficult houseshare.

Lanre’s book, We Were There, is out now.
Recorded at Contact Theatre in Manchester on 25 November 2025.
