Advent Calendar 2020

Steve Larkin

Warning: Not Safe For Work! (Strong language)

'Tis the season for ridiculous adverts!

Oxford's favourite spoken wordsmith Steve Larkin brings a healthy dose of cynicism to the season of consumerism, with this arch critique of festive marketing campaigns (we're sure he doesn't mean ours!)

In true cynical style, Steve suggests that if you enjoyed this poem (or have a cynical loved one you're yet to buy a present for), you'll love his book: Own Steve Larkin, a collection of poetry and lyrics set out like a choose-your-own adventure. Due to covid-related postal delays, it won't arrive before Christmas, but your cynical recipient probably won't mind!

You can keep up to date with Steve's performances by subscribing to his mailing list, or supporting him via Patreon.
