Ana Matronic
Scissor Sisters frontwoman Ana Matronic chats to Simon about her new book Robot Takeover. Plus a daft listener Confession and much marvellous music!
Scissor Sisters' frontwoman Ana Matronic chats to Simon about her new book 'Robot Takeover'. A robot obsessive, Ana Matronic looks at 100 of the most legendary robots from popular culture, and what makes them iconic: from Maria in Fritz Lang's Metropolis to the Sentinels of The Matrix and beyond, via the Gunslinger (Westworld), R2-D2 (Star Wars) and more... Ana looks at their creators, purpose, design and why their existence has shaken, or in some cases, comforted us.
There's also a daft listener Confession for the team to mull over, the latest travel updates from Bobbie, and much marvellous music!
