MINISODE ALERT! The era of bad audio is over, but I've managed to salvage one other clip we did a while ago on net neutrality to tide you over until we release a new full episode (in this, the new good audio era) tomorrow.
Alex Kealy (@alexkealy) sat down with Riley (@Raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani) to talk net neutrality, and the convo is so dang scintillating, Nikki (@NikkiS4) - mental health advocate and relationship advice columnist - jumped in with takes out the grill.
Full chaos episode with Reel Politik arriving tomorrow!

AUDIO WARNING. Riley (@Raaleh) fucked up royal and the entire episode recorded on the native laptop mic, rather than the very good mixer... so this is a rough, ready, TRASHFUTURE LO FI EDITION for your listening (dis)pleasure. I promise it'll be fixed up next week, as I'll have fired myself as producer.
The boys (including @Milo_Edwards and @HKesvani) are joined by guest host Olga Koch (@rocknrolga) to speak with journalist and Wales expert Elena Cresci (@elenacresci) about dumb internet shit - including Zoella's expensive advent calendar, a fan-submitted dumb app, and work out how we'll finally save our dang down payments. Hussein talks at length about Sausage Roll Jesus.

And sorry again about the audio!

It's a TRASHFUTURE/Reel Politik mash up bonus weekend episode, as Jack Frayne-Reid (@coplandresident) calls up Riley (@raaleh), Hussein (@HKesvani) on Skype to chat bollocks about music, discuss the implications of James Bridle's great Medium post on Youtube Kids weirdness, and intelligence analyst Eric Garland's disturbing new revelations about Russia in the context of the recent wave of crime and corruption in elite circles.
An incredibly hung over Milo Edwards (@milo_edwards) hops on the call later on and stays as long as he can hold his head upright.
Reel Politik (@reel_politcast) is a great podcast we all listen to regularly here on the TRASHFUTURE, and if you're not listening then you're a goofy. While you're at it, follow us on twitter (@trashfuturepod).
We recorded this episode entirely on Skype, and something is a little tinny with Riley's audio (soz!)
James Bridle's post is here, and worth a read if you haven't already: https://medium.com/@jamesbridle/something-is-wrong-on-the-internet-c39c471271d2

Milo (@milo_edwards) and Riley (@raaleh), with Alex Kealy (@alexkealy) subbing in for Hussein (@HKesvani) and Charlie (@cfppalmer)... talk to Maya Kosoff (@mekosoff), tech features writer for Vanity Fair! She was sent a wifi coffee cup called Ember that comes with a charging coaster you're not allowed to get wet... So it was immediately clear to everyone she had to come on. We also talk Tiffany "Everyday Objects," Facebook's interest in our nudes, and Twitter's interest in Nazis.

The garbagemen Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani) are joined by leftist journalist and author Hannah Jewell (@HCJewell), whose new book 100 Nasty Women of History came out last week! We talk with her about labour organising and feminism in the digital age AND in history (both!), and also a bunch of other dumb internet nonsense.
DUMB INTERNET NONSENSE includes, but is not limited to, the Bin Laden files, the Antifa attack that wasn't (or at the time of recording, was not to be), liberal morons sanctimoniously reinventing philosophy, and the antinatalism of the British royal family, and whatever else I can't remember.
Like and subscribe fools!
(PS: we've had to cancel the show next week due to scheduling issues - but stay tuned in January!)

Another half sode this week pals... but this time, it's due to technical issues. My computer ate the second half. This was an episode we - Riley (@raaleh) and Milo (@milo_edwards) recorded with comedian Phil Wang (@PhilNWang) last month, and we bullshit for a while about a few dumb inventions and other fun nonsense!
We recorded this episode last month, just before Hussein (@HKesvani) joined up full, so expect to see more of him in the coming weeks as we start recording afresh.

Half ‘sode this week with your boys – Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani), sit down with Ryan Broderick (@Broderick), deputy global head of news at Buzzfeed and host of the Internet Explorer podcast to get a run down his experience hosting a Russian futurism conference (spoiler alert it sucks and nothing works). Short ‘sode this week because Ryan had to run in the middle because the GODDAMN NEWS never sleeps. We were gonna do a smart episode I swear. We just got way too stupid.
In other news we’re having our very first LIVE SHOW in London at the Betsey Trotwood on November 14th with… Riley, Hussein, and Ryan Broderick (from this very show!), joined by friends of the show Pierre Novellie, Alex Kealy, and Olga Koch. We’ll be doing a mix of stand up and “show,” and at £7, you can’t afford NOT to go.

Riley (@raaleh) Milo (@milo_edwards) and Charlie (@cfppalmer) - we promise the triumphant return of Hussein (@HKesvani) next week - talk with writer and journalist and Novara senior editor, Eleanor Penny (@eleanorkpenny) about... *klaxons* sex robots! We focus especially on the Ibsen that is sex robot dialogue, the philosophical issues with robotizing women, and reading through/owning the milquetoast apology by the company that made that rape-able alliterative robot (Frigid Farrah... remember that? Fuck).
Milo also tells us about a bizarre show he heard on LBC where a racist shouts about how much he hates the film Ghost.

Riley (@raaleh) Milo (@milo_edwards) and, guest host Pierre (@pierrenovellie) conclude our marathon recording session with Matt Zarb-Cousin (@mattzarb), talking about Fixed Odds Betting Terminals (FOBTs), the digital slot machines gracing every betting shop in this geohell of ours... and how they're being beaten.
We also talk about a brilliant new kitchen gadget with one moving part and zero moving brains.

No Hussein (@HKesvani) or Charlie (@cfppalmer) this week; instead Riley (@Raaleh) and Milo (@Milo_Edwards) are joined by Pierre Novellie (@pierrenovellie)... and Matt Zarb-Cousin (@mattzarb), an actual smart person (!) who shows for the second half of Part I, and all of Part II - which is out tomorrow.
We talk about Perkbox - a company we may have started beefing with on twitter (we see you Perkbox) for giving bosses seeking employee engagement an alternative to "just pay them more, idiot," and Hampton Creek, a $1.1bn technology platform that exclusively makes weird mayonnaise.
