The Cultural Vacuums – Details, episodes & analysis

At the Cultural Vacuums, comedians Lew and Josh are ready to help fill your brain and soul with a steady stream of culture courtesy of a weekly - and hopefully far more cultured - guest.

Help! Lew has swallowed a plastic straw again, is there a doctor in the house?!

Luckily we've only gone and booked the amazing (and medically trained) Michael Akadiri to - save Lew's life - and give us a breakdown of what makes him culturally tick, from catching up on Top Boy to training to be the top boy in WWE.
