Mix of Come Dine with Me and BBC Question Time
Guests are invited to dinner to debate and discover over a delicious three-course meal, expertly curated by African or Caribbean Chefs.
All dinner guests are diverse in several areas, including background, ethnicity and ideology, which creates spicy conversations. BRKIN Bread is about the art of conversation. It is an invitation to understand all sides and to be understood.
BRKIN Bread takes all the best parts of the ‘roundtable’ and ‘bantercast’ formats and breathes new life into both because the dinner guests do not know each other or the topics of conversation until they are at the table.
BRKIN Bread is a moderated conversation where all politically correct, incorrect, controversial or counter-cultural views are welcome. All positions are open for challenge. BRKIN Bread is where you will hear, listen to, watch and become part of organically authentic, unfiltered discussions.
Lateral Theory Founder Sabrina Clarke says, “BRKIN Bread is designed to bring back the art of conversation. It is a demonstration that we can disagree without being disagreeable. That we can respectfully challenge perspective while enjoying great company over a meal.”
So far, the episodes have featured dynamic and controversial topics, including:
- The appointment of Rishi Sunak as UK Prime Minister
- Democracy in the UK
- The Ukrainian refugee crisis
—————————
Balancing out the serious subject matter are some seemingly ‘easygoing’ questions around:
- What comes first on the scone? Cream or jam?
- Where do you like to sit on an aeroplane? Aisle or window?
BRKIN Bread is out now and is available on YouTube, Apple, Google, and Spotify and all major podcast platforms.
