TRASHFUTURE

We speak with Will Davies, reader in Economics at Goldsmith's University and author of the book Nervous States. We discuss mental health and capitalism, why everyone's crazy, and the Cool Kids Centrist Philosopher AC Grayling getting pissed on twitter and going beast on his stationary bike.

Something of a sleepy week in British politics, a time in which nothing happened of any real significance. This episode features (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) discussing these banal developments with London-based journalist (and host of Red Hacks podcast) Joana Ramiro (@joanaramirouk). Parliament didn’t get prorogued, the government didn’t suffer landmark defeats, and Low Tax Chloe didn’t make some of the worst memes in human history. We also also talk about the weird incel logic behind Apple's Siri. It’s a great, normal time to be a resident of this island, folks!

We all have Epstein Brain, or at least Riley, Milo, and Alice do. But first, this episode covers our reflections on London and which bits of it suck, a review of the Duke of Westminster's app that lets council tenants decide how they want to get kicked out, then finally we realise everyone's favourite prince couldn't possibly be involved in Epstein shit! He said so!

It’s a truly classic TF lineup this week with Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) discussing Dominic Cummings supposed genius, but mostly recoiling in horror at an app that’s going to record everything that goes on inside your house, scan your face for fear, and grass you out to the cops. It’s not good!

It's another lovely week in the British summer of, uh, impending fascism? On this week’s bonus, Riley, Hussein, and Alice are in discussion with writer and journalist Kieran Yates (@kieran_yates) on the topic of terrible internships, terrible models of home ownership, and much more. Did you know that Hussein has Trashfuture on his CV? Maybe everyone should put it on their CV, even the listeners. You’ll love it, folks!

Why is it that British dads all want to go to war? Why is it that, despite having grown up during a period of unparalleled peace and stability, people over 50 want to relive Dunkirk and embrace the Blitz Spirit? Maybe because they’re all deeply bored and lazy people. To discuss this (and much more), we’ve brought on Francis Horton (@ArmyStrang), cohost of What a Hell of a Way to Die (with our own Nate (@inthesedeserts)). Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) also discuss the Amazon being on fire and a terrible, terrible NY Post article about monogamy. You will love it.

We took Trashfuture on the road, opening up the start of of the Birmingham Transformed festival. The cast was Riley, Hussein, Nate, and returning guest Soweto Kinch (@sowetokinch). We talked about a high-tech eugenics platform and a news site that might as well be the QAnon Onion. You'll love it as much as we did, friends.

What a whirlwind week it’s been. For starters, Jeremy Corbyn gave the Lib Dems and CUK/TIGs an offer they would normally not be able to refuse, but instead refused because (as we knew all along) they hate mild social democracy more than they hate Brexit, despite being the “Stop Brexit Jeremy” parties. We discuss this, as well as WeWork’s recent initial public offering. Riley (@raaleh) dug up their S-1 filing and talks it over with Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum). We live in a great economy, and as such this episode is extremely positive.

We did it. We drove from London to Edinburgh with all our equipment in tow, climbed a fucking medieval staircase in a downpour, got soaked to the damn bones, and then played a (sold out!!!!) show at the Edinburgh Fringe. We only had a 50 minute time slot, so this was a short one. Thank you so much to all the fans who came out in the garbage weather to see it.

This show was a blast and we think you'll really enjoy it! Get the full thing here on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/29164609
