In this episode, Josh and Sean tackle digital security, automation, and the growing frustrations with service providers. They examine how capitalism and technology shape daily life, displace jobs, and create systemic stress. 

The discussion also covers the closure of vegan restaurants in London, rising rents, and the broader impact on cultural spaces like the Prince Charles Cinema. They explore consumerism, the commodification of culture, and the struggles of independent businesses. 

Highlighting activism and community resilience, they address economic disparities, the exploitation in the food industry, and the urgent need for systemic change.

Enjoy the ride!
