Succession VS The White Lotus
Description
Two critically lauded TV shows have gone head to head depicting privilege and the lifestyles of the ultra rich through cuttingly satirical comedy-drama over the past couple of years: Succession and The White Lotus. But which binge fest do we love-hate the best? Ania Magliano is a comedian whose recent show, Absolutely No Worries If Not, was a sell-out hit at the Edinburgh Fringe. She’s also one of the writers behind Amelia Dimoldenberg’s much-loved Chicken Shop Date and is the co-host of If It Is to Be Said – a podcast all about Succession. Poppy Damon is a journalist, crime podcaster and screenwriter, whose creations include Pseudocide – a podcast about people who fake their own deaths – and the upcoming Agatha Christie and the Dandelion Poisoner. Both are storytellers who value wit, timing and maybe the odd plot twist too but for Ania, Succession is the ultimate satire. For Poppy, it's The White Lotus that takes the top spot. Coco Khan is in charge of the remote and there can only be one winner – you the listeners decide – follow the link below to cast your vote.
