For this week's bonus episode, we're joined by friend of the show Gareth Dennis to discuss the upcoming 'infrastructure reforms' that could obviously make a huge difference, if done intelligently, but... don't seem to be shaping up that way. Which comes as an enormous surprise to all of us.

Becca joins the gang to discuss her recent investigation into the use of prison as a “place of safety” for mental health crises. Also, we discuss the brewing war, Farage in Wales, and the takeover of Wales’ premier news site and its conversion to an AI slop factory by gumshoe reporter and assumed identity, Harry Jazz.

DSA organiser and friend of the show Noah returns to talk about resisting ICE in Los Angeles, and the consequences of that ongoing mobilisation of fascist paramilitaries. But first, we talk about a new “frontier city” that’s asking: just how much will an unstable, irradiated landfill accelerate AI development?

Tom Mills and Dan Hind talk to us about their work on what a functioning BBC might look like, and how that’s less about finding the exact right political balance (any day now, surely!) and more about ownership structure and material factors. In the first half, we are once again overtaken by events, as this seems to be another “week where decades happen” in global politics.

We’ve brought on serious friend of the show Josh Boerman to discuss the use of AI material made by and for evangelical Christians in the United States, and this leads to the discovery of Pray dot com, Gloo dot AI, and so much more.

Jacob Silverman returns to the pod to talk about the breakdown in relationship between Musk and Trump, and the tensions that have always simmered at the heart of the Silicon Valley / MAGA alliance… but how it will likely remain in place after the extremely replaceable Elon pissed everyone off so much he was asked to leave. Also, Jacob went to the Bitcoin conference and found it to be a shimmering sea of weirdness.

Seamus joins us to talk about the sudden (apparent) about face of some western leaders on Israel, who suddenly just now realised that a genocide may be occurring on their watch, and why the right time to take this stand was years ago. Also, we discuss a tech leader who wants to productise thinking, the ongoing adventures of Gregor Steube, and a new and innovative way hackers are stealing bitcoin.

Historian and journalist Ben Fogel joins the gang to talk about South Africa, and how it came to be a totem for the modern right. Also, we look at Elon’s continued decline and fall (despite the “success” of his project), and Robert Jenrick’s new career as an influencer.

The oft-requested episode is finally here, in which we watch what can only be described as a piece of outsider art: a zero-budget, zero-effort British gangster film made sometime between 2011 and 2017 by a woman named Sally Clack, who performs under the name Rapper Shampagne™. Dave Courtney is in this but you'd barely know it. This film caused Nate to have an existential crisis. We do not recommend viewing the film itself.

Eleanor Janega stops by to talk about her new project on the history of The Crusades with American Prestige, and how these largely failed military campaigns against basically everyone East of the Italian peninsula transformed into the iconography of Islamophobia at home. But first, we look at more flailing from the Labour Government, a plan to sentence criminals to bins, and reflect on Scott Adams’ ass.

Tech reporter Mike Isaac rejoins us to talk about the antitrust trials against Meta and Alphabet currently winding their way through the US justice system… but we enjoy a pretty significant detour into the world of the paint mafia. Also discussed is a startup “reinventing banking” to help ordinary people invest in high risk private capital projects with their pension funds, the great burrito bust out, and xAI’s wild turn as a white genocide guy.

For this week’s free one, we’ve got returning guest Tim Faust on to talk about Make America Healthy Again (citations needed), Diamond Joe having cancer, the intensely evil cross-partisan urge to institute Medicaid work requirements in the US, plus a visit to the developing paradise of Neom. It’s all here for the taking, folks.

Note: there is a part at the beginning of the episode that will sound like we left in an editing mistake, but we assure you……….it’s intentional.
It’s Riley, Milo, Hussein, and November, checking in with Jan Marsalek (to an extent), hearing about an orb that can tell if you’re a chatbot or not, and reviewing Janice Turner’s absolutely bananas article about ‘the lanyard class.’ Apparently we did too much corporate CYA training and now the only recourse is to do full fascism. Or something?

Dan Boeckner’s in town, so he joins us to talk about the ongoing trade chaos, the new plan by the Charter Cities Institute to make a sparkling tech enabled immigration detention centre / San Francisco competitor on a very controversial Navy Base, and finally we look at the just-released immigration white paper, where Sir Keir Starmer KC Human Rights Lawyer and Saviour of Sensible Politics comes juuuuust close enough to quoting Enoch Powell to raise an eyebrow.

Notes on the Crises’ Nathan Tankus returns to talk to Riley about 100 days of DOGE, and the catastrophic risks those broccoli haired little rascals pose the entire global financial system, in addition to the moral depravity of the whole enterprise. In the first half, Riley, Milo, and Hussein discuss yet more in the “AI will replace the human soul” file, and call a winner in the interim Starmer-Trump 2025 capitulation contest… but finals are still all to play for!

We review the recent spate of local elections that has everybody deciding retroactively that the Labour Party was always full of dangerous liars who could not be trusted to govern the country - if only someone had figured this out sooner. To start, though, we also look at the spate of religious and spiritual experiences people are attributing to AI, and Riley updates his favourite little bit of OSINT.

Luke Savage rejoins the gang to talk all about what Mark Carney’s government will actually bring Canada - the short answer is “more of the same shit that didn’t work the last four times it was tried.” Will this stop us making revolutionary jokes about Carney? Only time will tell, signs point to no. Also - we look at the rise of Hardman Labour, and read a truly horrifying exposé on Meta’s rules governing use of their chatbots.

We ring in the Carnation Revolution (more on that later), discuss the moral panic du jour in the U.K., and then cross stateside to discuss the group chat leaks of our close personal friend Mark Andreessen. Can’t believe all his courtier suck ups turned out to be snakes.

We return to U.K. shores to look at the state of national party politics in advance of local elections, and think of who would win in a capitulating contest between Starmer and Trump.
