In this installment of B2S, we art. We got two hours of it. Strap in.
We were joined by lovely Hanna, a local art expert, at Bristol's Robert Fitzharding Wetherspoons. We settled in for a quite pleasant exploration of art - in pubs. On the internet. In our minds. We even made a bit of art. Not including this podcast. I mean it's a stretch to say any of this is art really.
Anyway.
2:00 - Hanna (our guest or artful taste) find that we've actually failed to record the first half hour of the pod. Gutted.
16:00 - We jump into current events. A pigeon held a Wetherspoons in Birmingham hostage. A Greene King took a cheap shot at Harry & Meghan. (I am honestly annoyed she spells her name that way I had to just look that up.) Greene King is still crippled by strikes. And we read a review of the Wetherspoons's holiday meal special.
51:00 - We do an art tour of the Robert Fitzhardly. We even did an art review of the carpet. Masterclass on our part really.
1:18:00 - Hanna paints me. Like one of her french girls. We talk about various art topics all the while. Pretty chill. Yep.
1:34:00 - I found some Wetherspoons tangential art topics. There's actually a Wetherspoons art museum. In North Carolina. And I tracked down the Art Picture House Wetherspoons in Bury. Read some review about it. Didn't get all the marks as it happens.
1:51:00 - Finally we try to answer the age-old question: WHAT IS ART? I have no idea if we even got close to settling it I blacked out to be honest. It wasn't even the pints. It was just that intense of a dialog.
Here's the article about the pigeon because it's just a classic underdog story. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/whats-on/food-drink-news/new-birmingham-wetherspoon-pub-shut-25647307
