We’re back in the saddle for another episode of delightful modern existence. The full cast of Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice @AliceAvizandum discuss a $100m-valued emoji service, the sudden disappearance of pro-EU groups post-Brexit, a Rafael Behr classic column from 2009, and an extended riff about the weird Xbox tween boy simulator called--and we are not joking--'Project Milo.'

In a preview of this week's bonus, Katie Halper (@kthalps) of The Katie Halper show and Rolling Stone's Useful Idiots Podcast joins Milo, Riley, and Alice to discuss a terrible start up, and then give us a "Who's Who" of the also-ran's who are fighting it out to lose to our boy Bernie Sanders in the United States.

There’s a general election coming up in Ireland, and rather than just having us attempt our worst Irish accents, we’ve brought on comedy writer Michael Fry (@bigdirtyfry) to discuss it with Riley (@raaleh), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice @AliceAvizandum. However, we have to discuss a haunted water cooler app and an op-ed about market-based solutions for our incipient societal meltdown. You will enjoy this, we promise. Do not ask us to explain the title.

If you live in a city (or use the internet at all), you've seen ads for supposedly high-quality mattresses like Casper or Eve. They don't make mattresses—they just market them—and they're losing money hand over fist. In this week's episode, Riley (@raaleh), Hussein (@HKesvani), Nate (@inthesedeserts), Alice (@AliceAvizandum) and special guest Tristan Cross (@tristandross) discuss this extremely durable business model — and a close-read review of some of the bonkers new Tory MPs. You will love it.

And on the pedestal, these words appear: 'bung a bob for Big Ben to bong for Brexit.' This accursed phrase has melted our brains, and you get to hear it happen in real time on a preview of this week's episode. It's a mass gathering of Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), Alice (@AliceAvizandum) Olga (@rocknrolga), and special guest Soweto Kinch (@sowetokinch)... and things get weird. We hope you'll love this episode as much as we hate being alive after reading the material that went in to it.

This week, we’re talking Iran escalation and Donald Trump’s genius strategy of galvanizing a nation, but there’s a little more nuance than normal. So, Riley (@raaleh), Hussein (@HKesvani), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice @AliceAvizandum join special guest Séamus Malekafzali (@Seamus_Malek), who’s a writer and analyst working in Beirut. This one will stimulate the logic center of your brain more than a thousand Ben Shapiro podcasts. Hope you enjoy!

It's the chaos configuration of Riley, Milo, and Alice on the preview of this week's bonus episode (Nate and Hussein were busy being boring lames). We're talking about the assassination of Qassem Soleimani and the tragic hilariousness of America's constant self-sabotage when it tries to do imperialism. We also talk about yams in Vancouver for some reason. Guess what: it's not good, folks!

Since the election result, you’ve heard all sorts of cries for Labour to get more racist. To discuss her recent article about why this is a terrible idea, writer and researcher Kimberly McIntosh (@mcintosh_kim) joins Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice @AliceAvizandum. What are ‘Labour heartlands’? Why is class in Britain apparently tied to what you or your parents were doing in the 1970s? And why does London not count as working-class (unless you’re a whippet in a flat cap)?
You can read Kimberly’s recent article here: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/dec/17/traditional-working-class-labour-minorities-heartlands-white-voters
