*PREVIEW* Hannibal l'Equity feat. Ethan Shone Oct 19, 2024

Show notes

For this week’s bonus, we speak with friend of the show and openDemocracy journalist Ethan Shone (@EJShone93) about the… corporate proximity to Starmer’s Labour and its recent investment conference. With all the documented malfeasance, fines, violations, and general contempt of the public, it comes across like new marketing on old (but dumber) Blairism. It is 2005 forever. You are always listening to “Gasolina” by Daddy Yankee. Things can only get greyer.

Druidfuture Oct 15, 2024

Show notes

Riley is on holiday and we’ve convened the remaining cast of Milo, Hussein, Nate, and November to discuss recent trends in the US election, plus a weird hagiographic article by none other than the arch-villain Laura Kuenssberg on the topic of Keir Starmer’s first 100 days. And somehow, somewhere, a druid gets involved.

*PREVIEW* Flowers for Algernonce feat. Hesse Deni Oct 11, 2024

Show notes

We are joined by Hesse Deni (@ZeroSuitCamus) of the Seeking Derangements and Movie Mindset podcasts to discuss A VERY ROYAL SCANDAL, another installment of British TV movies dramatizing the Prince Andrew Newsnight interview…but this time with an inexplicable voice. No, literally, what is going on with the way they’ve depicted Emily Maitlis’ voice? It’s a baffling assembly.

The (Data) Centre Cannot Hold feat. Paris Marx Oct 08, 2024

Show notes

Paris Marx of Tech Won’t Save Us joins the gang to discuss his new limited series, Data Vampires, all about how data centers (shock horror) really aren’t all they’re cracked up to be, and instead just act as gigantic drains on the resources of the localities in which they are based. Also, we discuss one year of western media and political cover for Israel’s actions in Gaza and its neighbouring states, and reflect on the people who revel in making “humanity” a more contingent condition than ever.

*PREVIEW* Kinds of Keirness Oct 04, 2024

Show notes

As the Labour-taking-bribes scandal runs on into its second month (out of god knows how many), we look at how it’s actually intimately connected to the private sector bonanza we saw at party conference. We also take a look at Rachel Reeves rewriting UK borrowing rules to take investment into account as something other than a cost (good), and how this is likely to be used to fund further private sector giveaways (bad). Also under discussion: Meta’s drive to put its glasses on everyone (bad if it works) and OpenAI’s gargantuan new funding round (funny).

The Anatolian Candidate feat. Mattie Lubchansky Oct 01, 2024

Show notes

We admit it: we went too early with the Eric Adams story a couple weeks ago… and circumstances have developed not necessarily to the Mayor’s advantage… so No Gods, No Mayors’ Mattie Lubchansky (and Riley Quinn and November Kelly) join the gang to discuss details of the Very Unfair, Biased Eric Adams Indictment Witch Hunt, where a simple country mayor is persecuted only for his love of the boat cruise of the Bosporus and Turkish YIMBYism. Also, we discuss recent events in Lebanon and then read an article about a hyper-secure island for billionaires off the coast of Miami.

*PREVIEW* Britainology 90: Withnail & I Sep 29, 2024

Show notes

Thank you to the fan who commented that we should continue to explore Richard E. Grant's career. As such, we've watched the 1987 film WITHNAIL & I and.... enjoyed it? But it's very hard to escape the notion that 1987 Britain conjuring 1969 Britain looks indistinguishable from 2024 Britain in terms of vibes, aesthetics, degree of shitness, you name it. We hope you enjoy this!

*PREVIEW* Balthasar Speedboat MMXXIV: Horse-Flavoured Wine feat. Aidan Jones Sep 27, 2024

Show notes

No plot, just riffs, and it's friend of the show Aidan Jones joining Milo and Riley to discuss a number of things. But primarily Australian coffee and the natural wine fad that drives Riley up the wall, mostly because the wine tastes like a horse-barn by design? Or something?

Howard Zyn Presents: a People’s Cigstory of the United States feat. Matt Bors and Ben Clarkson Sep 24, 2024

Show notes

Matt Bors and Ben Clarkson are back on the pod to talk about A.I. and right wing animation. Also, Neom influencers, Labour MP’s loving bribes, and Tucker Carlson’s come to Jesus moment that Zyns… are soy.

*PREVIEW* Seven Crimes for Seven Brothers ft. Mattie Lubchansky Sep 20, 2024

Show notes

Mattie joins a recently re-Miloed gang to discuss how voters on both sides of the Atlantic only want delivery, and don’t care about scandals - whether it’s all of Eric Adams’ friends getting their phones seized by the FBI, or jillionaires playing dress up with the Labour Front Bench (and the Observer article that blithely describes all the shenanigans the party undertook in the run up to 2019 to play said game of dress up).
