Host
Carly Severn is a British-born, Bay Area-based writer and film obsessive who makes social media, radio, podcasts and internet dispatches on pop culture, unexpected histories, weird places and everything in between. She doesn't believe in guilty pleasures, and loved Keanu before you all did but it's cool. @TeaCupInTheBay
