TRASHFUTURE

This week, Nate and Milo discuss the phenomenon of remembrance poppies and the ways in which they've become a symptom of Britain's deeply unwell state. Solemn icons of the human cost of war? Hell no, slap that shit on a pizza and consume it, with honour.

We speak to Phil Jones (@philjones7771), author of Work Without the Worker, about microwork and how AI is fake, and most of it is just tiny tasks done by workers in the global south and dressed up as technology. We get deeper into how exactly how this practice developed, how its economics are rooted in overproduction, and how boosterish liberal institutions cheer-led the whole process.

Rob and Dave of the Praxiscast join the gang to discuss a U.K. success story in making beer, but more importantly, in making extremely annoying publicity stunts. Also, we return to the New York Times which appears to be doing Client Journalism for the Bored Ape NFT people.

This week, Milo and Nate speak with British Army veteran, leftist organiser, BJJ enthusiast, and all round comrade Joe Glenton (@joejglenton) about Britain's relationship with its Army and the different types of nutters who serve in it.

This week, Riley, Milo, Hussein, and Alice discuss The Hut Group--an attempt to make British Amazon with direct sales of health goods, financed with SoftBank capital--and its yoked fifty-something founder. We also discuss the Owen Paterson affair in all its cynical splendour. And, of course, there’s a new song. Hope you enjoy!

Facebook and Google haven't done anything new of note since 2007. It's just market capture and worse and worse services. However, Facebook is now Meta or something, and in this bonus episode Riley, Milo, and Alice seek to understand. Also we talk about hitting an ape with a hammer.

The gang talks to academic Maria Norris (@MariaWNorris) about Prevent, the government’s star counter terrorism policy now getting fast tracked through a softball review. We answer the question: “why do children regularly end up in counterterrorism databases for talking about Fortnite in school?”

This is it. The end of the series. Some of the worst, twee-est, most Lib Dem writing you'll ever encounter. We watched it to the end, and we brought on Street Fight Radio's Bryan Quinby (who recommended this series in the first place!) to discuss, along with our special Y&Y correspondent, Devon. Hope you enjoy!

We've got Joe and Francis back to discuss the Midwest--a reverse Britainology, if you will--and we're discussing 24-hour diners, terrible fast food jobs, and the cultural weight of professional wrestling in the Rust Belt / Greater Midwest. Hope you enjoy!

Good lord, the Gen Xers of Britain are a special bunch. And man, do they love to reminisce in the YouTube comments. To discuss this phenomenon, and the culture surrounding it, we brought on TF techno expert Riley--as well as George, the creator of the UKRaveComments (@UKRaveComments) twitter account--to discuss.
