We're pretty clear what a cursed object is, but what makes a post a cursed post? Dan Hancox and Kasia Tee from Cursed Objects join Phoebe & Hussein to make the deciding call, featuring bourgeois beans on toast, surveillance vines, and large farm animals.

This week we're joined by Rebecca Jennings, senior correspondent at Vox covering the internet, fame and money, to discuss youtube and tiktok millionaires and how they see themselves. Endlessly profiting off a bizarre and broken financial system, these people nevertheless bristle when described as 'grifting', and seem to genuinely believe that they're virtuous creators helping the less fortunate.

Returning guest P.E Moskowitz, author of the excellent newsletter Mental Health and forthcoming book Rabbit Hole, joins us once again to talk about 'Therapy talk'- the specific, stilted way that people online use the language of wellness to justify cutting people out of their lives, using phrases like 'holding space' and 'at capacity'.

We're joined this week by Bryan Quinby (@murderxbryan) to talk about his memories in the posting mines, and all the guys that he's discovered as part of his new podcast series called GUYS .--------We discuss what makes a kind of 'guy' and the surprising nuances over who is and who isn't a 'sex guy'. We also talk a lot about Bourbon guys - people who want to be respected in the same way as wine guys but likely never will. Hussein also finds out that he is a kind of 'guy' as well.--------Listen to GUYS here: https://sites.libsyn.com/458346--------You can support Brian's work, here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/bryan-quinby-of-55320815--------Subscribe to Phoebe's Substack newsletter, here: https://phoeberoy.substack.com/

This week, we're joined by Hayley Johns and Lynette Greenaway, chair and vice-chair of the Yoga Teachers' Union. What follows is a long and pleasant chat about building solidarity, and above all how to make headway unionising a workforce that do not traditionally see themselves as workers, let alone workers deserving of the kind of protection that a union can provide.

This week, we're joined by Journalist and Author Chris Stokel-Walker to dissect the recent congressional hearing as part of the ongoing effort to ban TikTok, where multiple geriatric congressmen and women "grilled" the CEO of TikTok, Mr Shou Zi Chew, about various petty gripes and misapprehensions about how technology works. But, hidden within the deluge of baffling questions and supervillain monologues were a number of genuinely interesting questions that bear further discussion.

This week, we're joined by Journalist, activist, and author Cory Doctorow to talk about AI art. How much of this is genuine innovation and how much is just a hype cycle relitigating old copyright debates? But first: Remember when that person accidentally trained their algorithm to show them a spooky woman and got spooked by it? It's LOAB!

This week we're joined by Tim Grierson, U.S. critic for Screen International, Host of Grierson and Leitch, and vice president of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, to investigate how the website Rotten Tomatoes works, and the effects that judging a piece of art on a scale of 1-100 for a vague notion of 'good-ness' has had on film criticism and films as a whole.

This week we're talking to Head of External Engagement at the Good Law Project, Ellie Mae O'Hagan, about the most common anti-refugee and anti-asylum seeker arguments and narratives, and how to counter them. Effective use of language is just one tool in an arsenal that should include being generous with your time and resources, but knowing the most common pitfalls will help.
