Nerd podcast on Marijn Lems' (NRC) annual list: Mental trauma and struggling with loss and grief.

Marijn Lems has a hobby that coincides nicely with his work as a reviewer for NRC Handelsblad, Theaterkrant and Cultuurpers. Namely, he plays countless games, sees bizarre amounts of television series and also goes to the theatre more than many colleagues can afford. Every year, he creates a top list, which he posts on Facebook. Once that prompted the first instalment of this series, and now, with a new list, it's a great occasion to delve a little deeper into it again.

Host Wijbrand Schaap adds his own annual list. Which starts with the end of everything.

Equipped with a new tune, created by composer Mees Rijken, the Culture Press Nerd podcast is so ready for a new year, in which we will again talk about incomprehensible things we do not explain. A podcast, in short, where the true culture nerd will feel extremely welcome, and the non-nerd can indulge in things you all can't share at birthday parties. Because there aren't any for a while anyway.

And then we also have a puking writer and Frouke.
