In September 1993, a TV show like no other appeared on our screens, asking us to consider the essence of truth and belief, to think about the nature and roles of science and humanity, and to question what we were told by those in power. Combining horror, science fiction, drama, crime, and comedy with cinematic filmmaking, The X-Files transported the paranoia of the sixties and seventies to the technologically savvy nineties as it followed two iconic characters, FBI Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, in their labyrinthine pursuit of truth.

Zufrieden sein wäre untertrieben, irgendwo Richtung Sonne und die Liebe dabei im Hinterkopf, das Gefühl, die Sätze an der Wurzel zu packen, um sie dann so wachsen zu lassen, dass sie richtig krachen, könnte man passend sagen: Das ist das neue Hörbuch "Still trying to write love Songs" von Markus Freise: Ob es nun die Alltäglichkeiten des Lebens sind, vermischt mit dem Wunsch, diese doch bitte einer Krawatte erzählen zu können oder gar Discobesuche mit der Einsicht, dass man alle Frauen irgendwie mit Aufstehen oder Sitzen bleiben umschreiben kann, hauptsache man handelt nach dem Motto der Liebe, wenn man denn an sie glaubt. Freise tut das auf jeden Fall. Mit seiner ersten Hörspielveröffentlichung tanzt Markus auf einem Drahtseil, wobei er sich stets mit Lichtgeschwindigkeit nach vorne bewegt...

Not for the faint of heart is an understatement. Still Broke, the latest album from comedian Adam Hunter, doesn’t ask for permission nor does it beg for forgiveness. Adam isn’t afraid to voice brutally honest resentment towards his newfound marriage, roast his audiences’ appearance, or embrace taboos. He is a talented performer and writer, an absurd, ballsy, one-of-a-kind smart aleck. Most importantly, the artist and album walks a fine line between provoking outrage and being off-putting.
