PREVIEW Mega Dukes feat. Patrick Wyman

Mar 07 2025 10 mins

It’s time for another examination of historical parallels with lessons for our own time - today Patrick Wyman joins the gang to discuss the late Byzantine empire… a state with such a self referential, cosseted elite that they found themselves sprinkling imperial procession routes with rose water while their entire society crumbled from the outside in. Also, getting caught red h

It’s a Pilled, Pilled, Pilled, Pilled World ft Julian Feeld

Mar 04 2025 71 mins

QAA’s Julian Feeld joins us to discuss how Q-Anon has metastasised into mainstream political thought in the global North, and will usher in a whole new era of traumas and catastrophes that will in turn produce yet wilder political tendencies that will continue metastasising. Also, Starmer’s forensic diplomacy lasts all of 45 minutes, the dissociative border patrol, and Miguel A

PREVIEW The Honourables feat. Gareth Dennis

Mar 01 2025 9 mins

NOTE: There's a slight issue with some echoes in this recording. We're trying to get it all fixed and will update if we can, but we don't want to delay the episode! Thank you for your patience, as ever.. Gareth Dennis returns to discuss infrastructure, growth, and the new airport runways that are about to festoon this island with promises of imaginary growth. But first, we

PREVIEW Britainology 100: The Life in the UK Test (feat. Trashfuture)

Feb 27 2025 10 mins

It's a Britainology episode, except it's every member of TF on this one, so in a sense it only makes sense to give the show guest billing. And Milo has created a suite of test questions to determine whether or not we know enough of the actually-relevant details about the UK. Let's just say that the final scores... are something of a surprise to us. Get the full episode on our Patre

Bastards of DOGE feat. Quinn Slobodian

Feb 25 2025 68 mins

Quinn Slobodian joins us to discuss his new book, Hayek’s Bastards (subtitle subtitle) - which traces the syncretic relationship of scientific racism, techno-solutionism, and the quest to destroy the cathedral to Neoliberalism’s crisis of mission in the 1990s.

PREVIEW Reversed Stomach Syndrome ft. Nina Eichacker

Feb 21 2025 10 mins

It’s a goons rights bonanza, with Devon subbing in for November to talk about the ongoing wave of gig economy apps for ex-Navy SEALs to turn random people into clouds of pink mist on behalf of crypto influencers who want to look richer than they are… also we check in on Humane, and read a column by Rafael Behr. In the second half, Economist Nina Eichacker joins Riley half to ta

We’re Going to Cherish It feat. Seamus Malekafzali

Feb 18 2025 64 mins

We talk about the Trump plan to bring stability to the Middle East by building hotels and casinos on top of the mass gravesite of an ethnically cleansed Gaza, and how it’s differences from the Biden plan are largely in its aesthetics. Also, the art of the deal in Ukraine, another cushy job in venture capital for an unqualified natsec goon (democrat), and what do you call a group

PREVIEW Museum of Future 9/11s

Feb 14 2025 9 mins

We go back into the whimsical world of flying cars, and Dubai’s plan to make them largely mandatory by 2026. Also - Riley invents a historical Euro-board game called Shadow Doge, ordinary Americans are given formal permission by the President to get their skin reversed by cartels, and fraud is legal again the world over.

Worst Case Scenario ft. Nathan Tankus

Feb 11 2025 82 mins

Nathan Tankus explains exactly what Musk and his little gremlins are doing at the treasury, and how this could have some pretty enormous implications for the national and global economies. Also - the killing of a sacred duck (in Venice), the spending of a sacred $30 (on eggs, by an A.I.), and the theft of a sacred suitcase (this is the last Miguel Arruda for a while, we promise…)

PREVIEW Can The Nephew Speak feat. Jathan Sadowski

Feb 07 2025 9 mins

Jathan Sadowski joins the gang to talk about DOGE and the destruction of mass produced, population scale knowledge in favour of the mythical folkways of Uncle Knowledge. Also - Silicon Valley putting out cash prizes for stochastic terrorism, Starmer gets the PartyGate treatment for his voice (?) coach (???), and our favourite Portuguese politician Miguel Arruda ACTUALLY makes the g
