TRASHFUTURE

Phoebe Gates went to How To Rule The World class at Stanford, where apparently she learned to admit to potentially criminal activity in Slack. Repeatedly. Also, the network school moves countries, a FarmVille with perma-death, and Mark Zuckerberg has a go at manifesto writing.

We talk about the death of Jason Arday and the culpability of our rotten-to-the-core media industry in bringing it about… and also a truly infuriating article about how a 17th century academic might not fit in at a modern “Pronouns University.”

First of all: mea maxima culpa for having trusted the hated professional news media about a certain fictive elf's grave. We're endeavouring to do better. And in that spirit we've brought on Gareth Dennis, host of Railnatter on YouTube and the Trainsatlantic podcast. Somehow, Gareth has the ability to make Andy Burnham do what he tells him, and we're discussing the future of Great British Railways, plus a deeply cryptic AI-for-British-Rail pamphlet, and our theory that we can only save the UK economy by building Ultra-Manchester (which includes a Mound).

Riley speaks to Foxglove’s Donald Campbell about the campaign to prevent Palantir from working with the NHS, but before we get to that, we have to talk about… fictive elven graves. And real Bronze Age burial sites. And a man in Texas who’s willing to move heaven and earth in order to view anime.

We've brought on friend of the show and writer Ben Fogel to talk about the hard-right turn in Latin America, and the list of freaks is a mighty one: the gradient scale of Bolsonaro failsons, the Peruvian dictator's daughter, the fast food restaurant family crime syndicate, and many more. November is still recovering from an illness but thankfully we have Mattie in detention onsite.

Prayers up for our beloved Nova who remains unwell, but Devon is in the hot seat today filling in as we discuss how you can’t trust maps anymore, a report on the state of reports, and the future of education in a certain grafting market trader’s utopia. But first, we look at the outstanding white boys who are ushering in a new era of vibes in Britain.

Too much is happening at once. We've got repurposed Realdolls being pitched as AI robot teachers....or tutors, since supposedly the difference is crucial. We've got an eight-figure settlement in the case of eBay gangstalking bloggers and doing Jared Leto Joker pranks on them. We've got a wearable tech ring for being a better Evangelical Christian, but also somehow reinventing indulgences. We're grateful for Mattie Lubchansky and Josh Boerman for joining us to rejoice in it all.

Once again, it seems like tariffs are going to slice the North American auto industry into ribbons while it simultaneously tries to make buying some of the only good cars in the world illegal. Victoria Scott from Tran Girlismo takes us through the decline of the American auto industry (for non freaks) and the rise of the American auto industry (for freaks) augurs the wheels coming off the broader American project. Also November’s back and we look at some of the early days of living in Greatest Manchester.

Friend of the show and Silicon Valley anthropologist joins us to discuss the cultural weirdness that has taken over Silicon Valley - what do you do to get noticed when your only route out of the permanent underclass is to make the same product everyone else is making? Go Crazy! Also, we look at the parade of old friends back from the dead - Quibi (sort of), Neom (a little bit), and Jan Marsalek (for real).

Jensen Huang sold his leather jacket for charity… and we look at exactly what that charity is and does. Then in the second half, Nathan Tankus is back to discuss the ongoing plot to create an imperial presidency by Touching the Money like never before.
