*PREVIEW* Tales of the Spite Cube: TF Live in Brisbane feat. Aidan ’Taco’ Jones Jan 06, 2023

Show notes

For this week's bonus, here's the live show we barely remember. It was our first show of the tour in Australia, we were jet lagged to the end of the earth, Milo was out sick with tummy trouble, and we were joined with special guest and friend of the show Aidan 'Taco' Jones to discuss... a spite cube. And a niche kind of Australian vehicle theft where you tell everyone exactly what you're about to do. This show took place at Good Chat in Brisbane on November 7, 2022.

Savoury Vapes Rising: Community Justice is Served (A Trashfuture New Years) Jan 03, 2023

Show notes

Riley, Milo, and Alice ring in the new year by looking at the Economist’s rosy predictions in an alternate universe where Britain magically becomes fine due to the power of positive thinking and sharp dressing. We also look at some developments in Scotland, and Labour’s plan to give every homeowner control of Trident to deal with the rampant issue of young people loitering. Finally, we round off by looking at a new Yacht Neom DLC.

*PREVIEW* Balthasar Speedboat 447: Reddit Fraud Edition feat. Tom Ballard Dec 31, 2022

Show notes

We're joined by friend of the show and comedian Tom Ballard. No theme, pure riffs, comedians talking, and also Riley divulging a story about trying to buy used streetwear and being robbed by a Redditor. Embarrassing stuff, folks!

We Wish You a Polycrisis feat. Dominik Leusder Dec 28, 2022

Show notes

Riley, Milo, and Alice festively discuss some Christmas presents granted by the news, including the arrest of the dread pirate Bankman Fried and Elon Musk posting himself into penury. Also, Dom Leusder joins Riley in the second half to talk about the concept of “polycrisis” that appears to now be inescapable, to attempt a more firm definition of a nebulous, but useful, concept.

*PREVIEW* Britainology 52: The Big Christmas Dinner Dec 27, 2022

Show notes

For this month's second Britainology, Nate and Milo discuss the mandatory food selections for British and American Christmas dinner, critique Christmas music and both countries' approach to it, establish that the existence of Black Friday in Russia posits the existence of Russian Thanksgiving (antisemitic), and much more.

*UNLOCKED* Britainology 23: Alan Partridge Dec 26, 2022

Show notes

This month's unlocked Britainology involves Milo forcing Nate to watch an incredibly awkward episode of I'm Alan Partridge and then helping him talk him off the ledge. We also explore how Partridge is not all that exaggerated a version of a British radio DJ, replete with some Richard Madeley and Jeremy Vine all-time classics. [If anything seems weirdly out-of-date, just remember that this was originally released on September 21, 2021].

Show notes

All riffs, no theme, pure vibes, first dates with criminals on the run, you name it. We've brought on comedian Alex Haddow to chat with Riley and Milo in this week's bonus. Hope you enjoy!

Oh Sovereign, My Sovereign feat. Quinn Slobodian Dec 20, 2022

Show notes

This week’s free episode is all about William Rees Mogg and James Dale Davidson’s book “the sovereign individual,” which describes a wonderful world in which fifty rich men live in armoured citadels and everyone else scrapes a living off the land. Do not become addicted to water, my friends!

*PREVIEW* The Ballad of Landmine Steve: AI Week Part 2 feat. Callum Cant Dec 16, 2022

Show notes

Callum Cant from Autonomy and Fairwork joins the gang for Part 2 of AI Week, where we go in depth about what the fair introduction of AI to workplaces might look like. Fairwork is starting the research process to answer this question, and we’re looking at what they intend to achieve and what the answers may be. Here’s a hint: it starts with an “O” and rhymes with an “Blorganised Labour.”

John Henry Mnemonic: AI Week Part 1 ft. James Vincent Dec 13, 2022

Show notes

The Verge’s James Vincent joins Alice and Riley (and Hussein shortly thereafter) to discuss language models - specifically ChatGPT, and how it fits into OpenAI and Microsoft’s plans. We ask - what is its “fluent bullshit” good enough to disrupt in a world that increasingly relies on paying people for bullshit jobs?
