![Jagmeet Me in Temecula feat. Luke Savage]()
October 20, 2019
We’re putting this episode out early because it’s the day of the Canadian federal elections and we want to encourage all our Canadian listeners to go vote for the NDP. Here's a link to where your nearest polling station is located: https://www.elections.ca/scripts/vis/FindED?L=e&PAGEID=20
To discuss the Canadian elections, the US Presidential primary, and some terrible journalism, we have the full cast of Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) joined with Canadian journalist, podcaster, and friend of the show Luke Savage (@LukewSavage). It’s one for the ages, folks.

In a preview of this week's bonus episode, we've done a deep dive into the work of the king of the airport books: Malcolm Gladwell. Riley, Milo, and Alice join Felix Biederman (@ByYourLogic) of Chapo Trap House (@chapotraphouse) to discuss the horror and the banality of the truest of thinkers. Hope you enjoy!

![No Platforming the Platforms feat. Nick Srnicek]()
October 14, 2019
What is platform capitalism? And why is it that Amazon seems to be transitioning from online bookstore to perpetually-expanding defense contractor? This week’s episode features Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) in discussion with author and academic Nick Srnicek (@n_srnck). Nick’s previous books include “Platform Capitalism” and “Inventing the Future: Postcapitalism and a World without Work.” He joins us to discuss a particularly non-HIPAA compliant app and his own work into the (monopolistic, bad) platforms that dominate our economy today.

![Young Justin’s Fancy feat. Rob Rousseau]()
October 7, 2019
Canada may be America’s slightly saner neighbour, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t completely bananas in its own right (or, as they say in Quebec, bananes). This week, @robrousseau of the @49thparahell podcast joins Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Nate (@inthesedeserts) to discuss Canadian party politics, the emergence of a new far-right party, why liberal media still wants to platform extremists, and why Justin Trudeau can’t seem to stop donning blackface.

![Kafka’s Union Jack feat Ben McLeay]()
October 3, 2019
Here's a preview of this week's bonus, which features Riley, Milo, and Alice speaking with Ben McLeay (@thomas_violence) of the Boonta Vista (@boontavista) podcast. We discuss a horrible startup called Stockwell (you'll love this one) and a Spectator article with the most profound Brexit manager-calling energy. We almost entitled this episode ACCENTFUTURE because, as you can imagine, it got weird.

![Brexit Won’t Let Me See the Kids feat. Tom Kibasi]()
September 30, 2019
Last time we had @IPPR’s Tom Kibasi (@TomKibasi) on the show, he correctly predicted a bunch of things regarding the politics behind Brexit. We needed to consult the oracle once more, and as such we reached out to Tom to come back on and reassure us about the future. Well, sort of. This week, hear Tom discuss the stat we’re in with Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Nate (@inthesedeserts).

![MIT Media Lab After Dark (Part 1)]()
September 23, 2019
So, what was MIT’s Media Lab actually researching with all that Epstein money? And why is it a Venn diagram of all the worst things in America in the last 40 years? Fronted by a neocon who helped the Contras and the Iraq War, headed by a bitchin’ surfer rave enthusiast tech idiot, and full of people inventing cursed SkyMall products. This week, Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Hussein (@AliceAvizandum) discuss this and so much more.
