Listen "Ep. 110 - Skins"
Episode Synopsis
Why do we make such a big deal about losing our virginity? As teenagers and young adults, we make it this life affirming event but is it really that big of a deal? We explore this question while judging the pilot of one of Jeff's all-time favorites, Skins (not the U.S. remake that most people know about). Set in Bristol, England, Skins shows us a side of teen culture never really shown on TV in the past. Drugs, sex, alcohol, parties, no consequences, no moral at the end of the episode, Skins felt more like reality than most other teen shows at the time. Best known for launching the careers Dev Patel, Daniel Kaluuya, Jack O'Connell, Nicholas Hoult, and Kaya Scodelario, Skins is a cult classic best remembered by millennials who grew up in the late 90s and early 2000s. We decided to tell the stories of when we lost our virginity along with Jeff telling the story of how he discovered the British gem of a TV series. Enjoy!
