For this week's bonus episode, Riley, Hussein, Nate, and November convene to discuss a number of topics: abject Burnhamism for one, a luxury block of flats in London making its very unsympathetic tenants live in what can only be called Scolding WeWork for another, and the story of a failed restauranteur family in Reading becoming part of your phone's firmware if you live in the UK?

IT'S A BANDCAMP FRIDAY which means that if you buy music from anyone on Bandcamp today, the platform doesn't charge any fees! Among the many artists out there that you can support, there is Nate's band Second Homes, whose debut album is available for purchase!

Bloomberg’s Zeke Faux joins us to discuss stablecoins - specifically Tether and World Liberty / USD1 - which function now as the parallel financial ecosystem for dealing with states captured by right wing cliques. But first, we brainstorm a post politics career for Keir and check in on the state of toys in Hertfordshire.

Molly is back again, this time to talk about the right's war on Wikipedia—we show how Grokipedia was actually born of grievances fomented in two reports baselessly alleging liberal bias at Wikipedia, and died because Elon got distracted. Also, we uncover a general principle: right wing grievance mongering projects fail because these are fundamentally lazy people.

Trash Future Boonta Vista and Tran Girlismo only fill so many hours; please give me your podcast recs. The more obscure the better.

Edit: great recommendations thank you! Some I’ve heard of, lots I haven’t!

Libby and Charlotte from What’s All This Then join us for an all dessert episode featuring a new entry in the Kirk fund, an interesting new fraud defence, and some answers to burning questions about Britain. Also a shirt Riley saw returning from a friend’s stag do.

Phoebe Gates went to How To Rule The World class at Stanford, where apparently she learned to admit to potentially criminal activity in Slack. Repeatedly. Also, the network school moves countries, a FarmVille with perma-death, and Mark Zuckerberg has a go at manifesto writing.

We talk about the death of Jason Arday and the culpability of our rotten-to-the-core media industry in bringing it about… and also a truly infuriating article about how a 17th century academic might not fit in at a modern “Pronouns University.”

First of all: mea maxima culpa for having trusted the hated professional news media about a certain fictive elf's grave. We're endeavouring to do better. And in that spirit we've brought on Gareth Dennis, host of Railnatter on YouTube and the Trainsatlantic podcast. Somehow, Gareth has the ability to make Andy Burnham do what he tells him, and we're discussing the future of Great British Railways, plus a deeply cryptic AI-for-British-Rail pamphlet, and our theory that we can only save the UK economy by building Ultra-Manchester (which includes a Mound).

At some point the ouroboros reaches it's neck

Riley speaks to Foxglove’s Donald Campbell about the campaign to prevent Palantir from working with the NHS, but before we get to that, we have to talk about… fictive elven graves. And real Bronze Age burial sites. And a man in Texas who’s willing to move heaven and earth in order to view anime.

Wild speculation as to what this means for Milo's future on TF is encouraged.

We've brought on friend of the show and writer Ben Fogel to talk about the hard-right turn in Latin America, and the list of freaks is a mighty one: the gradient scale of Bolsonaro failsons, the Peruvian dictator's daughter, the fast food restaurant family crime syndicate, and many more. November is still recovering from an illness but thankfully we have Mattie in detention onsite.
