For our final mainline episode of 2023, we're joined by friend of the show Mattie Lubchansky, resident Adams correspondent, to check in on Scott Adams, who has recently self-published a mindset book just in time for Christmas. It's a perfect gift if you're into projecting your own grievances onto other people and situations, or if you just fancy going Dark Dilbert mode this Christmas.

We then talk about a legacy post – "Charlie Brown had Hoes", go far deeper into Peanuts lore than we expected, and discuss how we've arrived at an internet where everyone has to mediate, sort through or accept lying in order to participate, and how this environment has changed the way we think about and accept information presented as the truthful.

Ok, technically this isn't quite a 'movie', but on this week's bonus, Hussein and Devon discuss a short Youtube documentary about the fall of Boogie2988, one of the first Youtubers to make a real, full-time income on the platform by playing video games and doing pranks and skits.

Economist and host of Macrodose podcast James Meadway joins us on this episode to talk about how and why economists post, and how it's changed from the blogging era to platforms. We talk about the idea of authority among economists online, whether posting has diluted the value of economic debate, and Paul Krugman's Twitter prophecy of 2013 – one that he then went on to ignore entirely.

We’re joined by Magdalene Taylor to talk about the new versions of “AI” wives and girlfriends, and what their growing popularity suggests about the way digital culture has changed the way we think about intimacy. Magdalene tells us about the different kinds of AI partners available on the market, who their target customers are, and why she thinks that, despite what tech guys may believe, they won’t replace real world desire.
