About this podcast
DB10 - where the obscene and the absurd refuse to be contained. Tim Gregory and Melletios Kyriakidis dismantle dominant narratives, exposing the grotesque, the derailed, and the unspeakable in contemporary discourse.
This is not an art podcast for passive consumption. It’s a dissection of the fetishised and the discarded, the hauntological wreckage of academia, and the anarchic play of a world in collapse. From auto theory to Marx, from magic to pornography, from counter-histories to fractured aesthetics -nothing is stable, and everything is unsettled.
