Tom Ward: Post-millennium Tension

Before Tom bails out on the modern world entirely to commit to nostalgia full-time, the burner phone using, Discman carrying, 1988-1995 obsessed freak is giving the present tense one last try. Not for him, but for his 2-year-old son who lives there. But how does 2026 compare to the one he grew up in? Tom explores the head f**k of popular culture in the modern world versus that of his youth in his trademark bittersweet style.

As seen on Live at the Apollo, Roast Battle and Qi.
