TRASHFUTURE

Look Binward, Angel

An upcoming by-election in Gorton and Denton has the British political class confronting, and failing to learn from, the fact that at some point someone has to govern. In a war of bins versus posts, they've decided to go all-out with posting, firing up the Anti-Corbyn Machine against Zack Polanski and failing to grasp why the Green Party might actually appeal to voters. And in order to understand this, we've assembled Riley, Hussein, and November to cut through the noise. We also discuss a new podcast entitled The Rest Is Prison, which hardly needs to be explained!

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

We've unlocked this bonus episode! We've had a perfect storm of illness among the entire cast and it became impossible to record this week, but we'll be back later in the week with a new bonus, and will have a new free episode next week.

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.

Panopticon :3 feat. Cory Doctorow

Cory’s back and in studio! We talk about the financial and legal shenanigans plaguing Elon Musk’s latest wheeze, reconfirm data centres in space are utterly moronic (part of said wheeze), and check in on the latest round of mawkish sentimentality being used to extend the surveillance state. Also we learn about a dot com bubble era startup called Cab Candy, which does exactly what you think it does.

histroy sent from my iphone feat. Paolo Gerbaudo

We discuss the new Epstein revelations that show that jeevacation also had a day job as a kind of nefarious Forrest Gump, facilitating or gleefully observing a huge number of the events that made our world feel so irredeemable, connecting a world of post-Soviet and American oligarchs with European aristocrats, western financiers, and basically every intelligence agency. In the second half, we talk to sociologist Paolo Gerbaudo about Ellison and friends’ acquisition of TikTok USDS and what that means for politics and social media going forward.

The Bolsonaro Method feat. Greg Foley

We’re joined by Blood Work’s Greg Foley to discuss the ongoing wave of state violence in the United States, and think about what makes this time different and altogether more worrying. Also, we look at the Labour Party shooting itself in the head rather than ceding any control to non-Morgan McSweeneys… but before any of that we look at what’s happening in a country that dealt with its fascism problem properly.

*PREVIEW* No Child WEF'd Behind feat. Dan Boeckner

Dan Boeckner joins for more CanCon as Mark Carney continues his journey from central banker to Maoist Third Worldist “death to amerikkka” insurgent leader in charge of the Hoser Mujahedeen. Also, we don’t want to be all IR all the time in the IR world we live in now, so we return to the orbs and the ongoing evidence that AI is useless and everybody except CEOs hates it.

Michelin-Starred BLEMTRO

A rare assemblage of November, Hussein, and Nate discuss the happenings of the day: Europeans deploying forces to Greenland to stave off Trump actually doing the thing; Trump's coterie of freaks claiming they're going to offer refugee status in America to British Jews; an article about an AI-powered restaurant chain where the machine not only cooks your food, but also invents your food. It doesn't sound great, if we're being honest!

Full-Spectrum Puppet Warfare feat. Séamus Malekafzali

I guess it’s another slow news day, so TF invited Seamus Malekafzali back on to discuss his favourite old French films. Wait, I am being handed a bulletin. We get into a lot this episode: bloc politics, international law and multilateralism as a European museum exhibit, and a world that seems poised to get much bloodier.

*PREVIEW* What a Pickle! feat. Abi Thorn

It’s Abi! And we’re talking about the current state of trans healthcare in the U.K. Also, we discuss the quantum leap the global fascist international has taken, the U.K. government equivocating over its ongoing presence on paedo Radio Mille Collines, and finally… a computer for the soul.

Black Bag Diplomacy ft. Jana Silverman

Professor of International Relations at UFABC Brazil and DSA International Co-Chair Dr. Jana Silverman joins us to discuss, based on history, what we can now about the recent American crimes and outrages in Venezuela. Also, this raises some questions as to the legitimacy of the FIFA Peace Prize.
