Manage episode 336888331 series 2920224
We investigate "The Affront", one of the most charismatic and truly awful alien species to ever exist. A tentacled gas-sac parody of British aristocracy from the book Excession by Iain M Banks, one of the greatest science fiction writers that ever lived.

- Apparently, I am the Affront. But not for the reason you think.
- Aristocracy's toilet habits
- And remember, Don't F$% with the Culture.
