Damien Levi and local loser are back for a second season! Is the audio still unreliable? Yes! Should you still listen anyway? Please!

For the first episode of season two, Damien chats with playwright/zinemaker/artiste Nuanzhi Zheng about receiving Creative New Zealand money for something unexpected, the role of Head Girls in society, art schools, eating disrespectfully, and more.

As always, we can only hope the guest's audio improves across the season, but we thank you nonetheless for listening.

You may want to find Nuanzhi on Instagram or Substack, by a copy of her play Yang/Young/杨 (cowritten with Sherry Zhang) in Traces, or look at her website.

Damien can be found on Instagram or at his website.

The local loser theme song is composed by Karen Hu.
