Britainology 64: Adrian Mole (feat. Nick) (Patreon)

For this month's second Britainology, we're joined by our friend Nick to discuss the 1982-2009 British young adult series Adrian Mole, the Gen X counterpart to the Up series' generational time-lapse sequence. It's yet another encounter with a British cultural product that Nate knows but that Milo doesn't, and after having read the 1982 book THE SECRET DIARY OF ADRIAN MOLE, AGED 13 3/4, we've happened upon at least one aspect of its enduring appeal: it reveals how unbelievably dorky all 13-year-old boys are at heart. We very much hope you enjoy!
