We're joined by writer and journalist Emma Garland. In Part 2, we talk about âHawk Tuahâ (try pronouncing it with a British accent, I dare you) and why people find it weird to talk about sex online, as well as how the Hawk Tuah podcast is an attempt by Jake Paul to pivot back to content if he loses to Mayweather later this year. To round us off, we look back to a simpler time, when Australian Breakdancing had the potential to unite us all.

Writer and curator Matt Muir comes on the show this week to talk about his life through posting.
We talk about his early message board days, the several occasions where he accidentally sent aggressive emails to the entire office by accident, and an extraordinary story of the time he tried to go on a date with a girl he met online... only to be left with a spooky message on a pub table. We also talk about Webcurios, a project Matt runs, curating some of the most interesting and unique material online, while actively pushing back on the impulses that drive recommendation algorithms.

Eleanor tells us about how the 'Stoicism' packaged in airport self-help books differs from its original Greek form, and how, throughout history, and even in its present, secular forms, Stoicism has largely been an intellectuallised form of cope.-------- Read Eleanor's Blog, here: https://going-medieval.com/Get your copy of "The Once And Future Sex", here: https://www.waterstones.com/author/eleanor-janega/4304701--------

Amil talks about the odd and often conspiratorial âadviceâ content recommended by social media platforms, the inevitable propensity to impulse buy baby products that donât work, and the unique position âParent Influencersâ have in the ecosystem to market themselves before their kids age out at 5.

On this weekâs episode, Phoebe returns to catch up on all the online shenanigans she missed during maternity leave. We talk about JD Vanceâs inability to order donughts and what happens when youâre too cooked on posts to operate in the real world. We also talk about âBrat Summerâ (RIP) as perpetual, all encompassing marketing with no real end point, and finally address the elephant in the room: Why British people should never be allowed to say the words âHawk Tuahâ.

Aaron Thorpe, co-host of The Trilbillies podcast comes back on the show to talk about Ridley Scottâs ALIEN (1979).
Hussein and Aaron talk about the impact the film had on sci fi horror and monster movies, the darkness and wetness that sets it apart from the more recent sequels, and why the film is actually about bureaucracies and how nobody wants to work in space. Plus, Aaron theorises how the Xenomorph and the cat may have been in cahoots.Check out the Trilbillies here!

Dr Nayana Prakash, formerly of the Oxford Internet Institute, comes into studio this week to give an insight into the shape and structure of the internet in India. She talks about the countryâs testy relationships with Facebook/ Meta and Twitter/X, why so many Indians see the internet as essential for social mobility and escape, and the ways in which internet culture has been weaponised, only to be subsequently restricted, by the Indian government under Narendra Modiâs BJP.

In the second part of âSlop Weekâ, Hussein chats to Ed Zitron, writer of the âWhereâs Your Ed At?â newsletter and the âBetter Offlineâ podcast.
Ed has been keeping a keen eye on the big financial backers behind AI companies, and he explains why, in his estimation, there is very little run way for AI projects to prove they are worth the money. Ed explains how OpenAIâs promises of building a tech God requires more money than any infrastructure project in recent human history, and how its dismal returns may force it to reduce its ambitions. He also suggests that tech companies in general have run out of ideas, and the consequences this will have both on the internet, and the global economy at large.

Welcome to part one of âSlop Weekâ, where we try to understand the incentives that have led to the internet being filled with incomprehensible, aimless content, and how itâs reshaping the way people communicate online.
Jason Koebler, co-founder of 404 Media and the host of the 404 Media podcast, joins us to talk about his recent investigation into junk AI on Facebook, and the the Indian Youtube influencers making online courses teaching people how to make slop around the clock. Jason explains how the creation of AI Slop is much more calculated and structured than we would otherwise think, how Facebook/Meta uses Indian slop creators to test and train its AI, and whether the internet could malfunction if AI projects are abandoned, leaving behind a whole trail of nonsensical images in its wake.
