Twitch streamer LivPosting returns to talk about her experiences in the job market, and how she almost got a job with a Zoomer-only consulting firm making millions of dollars from teaching Raytheon executives how to say "yeet." Also, is a phone box in rural Winchester the new world epicentre of the BLM movement? According to one brain poisoned conservative columnist, it is! Local hi-jinx abound.

In a preview of the most recent Britainology, brought on Riley to discuss a phenomenon as eternally British as bad weather itself: the legend. Who are British legends? What makes them act this way? How do you create a taxonomy of figures to distinguish between the Essex Geezer, the Entrepreneurial Legend, the High Street Hard Man, and Tim Westwood? Well, we gave it our best go.

It sure is good that the UK government is giving out funds to help the arts! And it sure is weird that they’re funneling money into Tory donors and their friends from school, to include multi-billion pound interests getting more money than entire cities in the North East! Whoever could have predicted this? To discuss it, we brought on friend of the show, actor, and YouTube star Olly Thorn (@PhilosophyTube) to discuss it with Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum).

We did it again. We found an extremely criminal "tech" company -- this time, a notional Tesla competitor that makes trucks. One catch: they don't work! However, to involve the incredible financial chicanery that went into it, we brought on friend of the show Quantian1 (@quantian1) to discuss it with Riley, Milo, Hussein, and Alice.

Blogger, information freedom activist, and sci-fi writer Cory Doctorow joins the gang to discuss the outcome of US anti trust hearings, what's so empty about the idea of "surveillance capitalism, and a start up that was genuinely conceived of by a precocious nine year old.
Also, the UK government rolled out an RPG character maker to get everyone back employed during the pandemic, so this podcast is brought to you by a sports agent, a hotel porter, and three boxers!
Check out Cory's book via his Kickstarter link - we will update these links when the audiobook is released! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/doctorow/attack-surface-audiobook-for-the-third-little-brother-book

This week, we're talking Dilbert and Scott Adams. Why? Well, for some reason all five of us liked Dilbert as a kid. Also, it just so happens that friend of the show Aisling McCrea (@ambientGillian) just published an article in Current Affairs about Dilbert's strange appeal. So, let's talk about it. Let's talk about Scott Adams' promise that he can make you no-touch cum. Let's dilb out.

In this unlocked episode of Britainology, Nate and Milo are discussing the 2005 film Green Street Hooligans, in which an American played by Elijah Wood goes to Britain and gets inducted into a football firm, learning a lot about himself along the way. Is it a good movie? No. But does it accurately portray football hooliganism? Also no.

Yes. It happened. We’re laughing. We don’t have any high hopes for a positive impact, but we’re laughing because Trump has covid and it’s not looking good for America’s fattest, oldest, and dumbest president. Also, since Riley was on holiday, he let Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Nate (@inthesedeserts) run this episode themselves. You will probably appreciate Riley’s contributions to the show after hearing this -- but we hope you enjoy!

This week we bring back historian, podcaster, and certified big guy Patrick Wyman (@Patrick_Wyman) to discuss the terrible 2013 Michael Bay film Pain & Gain. What can we learn about America's descent into fascism from this film? As it turns out, a hell of a lot.

Why is the line detached from the material reality of so many people? Why is the line divorced? Why are there so many zombie companies, and why does it seem like the financial movers and shakers are fine with government stimulus to basically non-functional entities? Well, to answer big important finance questions, we have Barrons journalist Alexandra Scaggs (@alexandrascaggs) to investigate, alongside Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum).
