THE SOCIAL MELTDOWN episodes

  • 20 years left if we're lucky...Your two favourite prophets have returned to chart the end of days!

    Experts say the collapse of civilisation isn’t coming — it’s already underway. So we decided to loosely base a show on the expert doomerist sub reddit r/collapse. It's democratically moderated by people with the right qualifications and temperament to pass on the verified info about civilisation unravelling. People take comfort in the sobering pessimistic facts, they make the days count.


    From nuclear war to climate-triggered volcanic mega-eruptions, the next two decades are looking… spicy.


    Dylan Evans (chronically online gen z/milennial / internet treasure/ showbiz royalty on Merseyside) ) and Graeme Smith (elder millennial/ queer/ ex pat scouse/ national broadcasting's best kept secret) dig into the headlines and research that suggest humanity might have about 20 years left, max. But don’t panic — or do, but also remember to take time out to p*ss your pants laughing.


    This is your emergency broadcast, only with better microphones and worse coping mechanisms.

    🎙️ In this episode:

    • How many ways can civilisation collapse? (Spoiler: loads)
    • How the sub reddit r/collapse is taking a sensible informed approach to the gradual end of times.
    • The bit about how all the mega volcanoes might be planning something.
    • And whether it's still worth buying nice clothes


    📉 Doom. Lols. Facts.

    Graeme and Dylan are documenting the downfall so you don’t have to.

  • EPISODE ZERO: grow your baby in a bag because childbirth is like toothache.

    In this 10-minute mini pilot, Dylan Evans (UK TikTok star and showbiz royalty on Merseyside) and Graeme Smith (award-winning LGBTQ+ podcaster and national radio voice of reason) give you a flavour of what happens when two longtime work mates from Liverpool start spiralling.

    It’s messy. It’s honest. It’s got jokes. It may or may not include a rant about some weird but compelling issue from the depths of their FYPs. On this occasion it's the baby in a bag. The future of fertility.

    Think of it as the amuse bouche before the algorithmic abyss.

    !!! WARNING THIS EPISODE MAY TRIGGER CLOSET ROYALISTS!!!

    The Meghan and Harry TV interview was about the last thing the royal family needed after all the Prince Andrew nonsense. Can the Monarchy survive this latest storm?
