Stereo Embers The Podcast 0129: Owen Vyse! (Echo and the Bunnymen, Starclub)

“Another Round With Owen Vyse: Coronavirus And The End Of The World”

In this special Coronavirus-themed episode, fan-favorite Owen Vyse
(Starclub, Echo and the Bunnymen) calls in from Thailand for a chat about the current state of the world under the lens of the Coronavirus. He talks to Alex about historical precedent, the mishandling of the pandemic by the Trump Administration and why April 4th is such a pivotal date. The conversation may seem discursive and tangential but it’s also quite linear and Owen and Alex trace the cultural implications of the disease by referencing the past, examining the present and looking ahead to an uncertain and uneasy future.
