TRASHFUTURE

Wes World ft. Sasha Baker

Journalist and professional Wes Streeting Watcher Sasha Baker joins us to discuss all things Streeting, as he seems to be more and more likely to be inflicted on us as the next Prime Minister of the UK. But first, May We Meet You?

PREVIEW: I Feel Like Margin Call ft. Ed Zitron

FULL EPISODE ON https://www.patreon.com/posts/i-feel-like-call-143560320

Ed Zitron returns to discuss all things AI bubble - specifically OpenAI's uncertain balance sheet, the potential government backstop of data centre construction, and the very real and material constraints (such as gas turbine production) on building god via Nvidia Blackwell chips. Also we get sidetracked and stunlocked by the new tranche of Epstein revelations at the very outset.

Building an Agentic Temple feat. Dr Eleanor Janega

Dr J joins us to discuss Peter Thiel's cooked eschatology, as well as the supremely attainable goals with which Elon Musk stands to make himself a trillionaire. It's all plausible and it's all real, and we of course have nothing but positive things to say about it!

Bill Ackman Exclusion Zone feat. Rob Smith

The Parasocial Bookie feat. Emiliano Mellino

Emiliano Mellino joins us in the middle of a riff about how we should be able to kinetically engage swans with lethal force to talk about how the employment tribunal system in the U.K. is fundamentally broken. Before that, we review the death of Neom and a16z’s newest innovation in the field of American Dynamism: more addictive gambling!

PREVIEW: The Derek Zoolander Economic Institute For Kids Who Can't Maintain Currency Value Good ft. Ezequiel Bistoletti

A few old friends stop by - Palmer Luckey, Shaun Maguire, and Eight Sleep... then we take a deep dive into the mind of the Irreverent Troop MP who loves Flags and is Serious About Flags and The Boats, Mike Tapp.

Then in the second half, Riley is joined by Ezequiel Bistoletti - professor at the University of Buenos Aires and host of the YouTube series Demolishing Political Myths to talk about the Libertarian Bailout King, Javier Millei.

Yes it's a long title but Nova said it and I thought it was funny.

The Day After The Day After Tomorrow ft. Séamus Malekafzali

Séamus - now host of the Turbulence podcast about the post-American imperial age - joins us to talk about the ceasefire in Gaza that wasn't, as well as the whole-of-government effort to rehabilitate football hooliganism. Also, we look at a fun new way to get carbon dioxide into your body.

*PREVIEW* Ingest Lead, Follow, or Get Out of the Way

Riley, Nova, and Hussein chug some down some heavy metals, talk about rare earths, ChatGPT’s OTHER other detour into porn (before curing cancer), and the slow death of neoliberalism. Then, Wired does some crucial journalism: talking to Cybertruck owners who all need to find polite ways of saying they have a “getting yelled at” fetish.
