Ep 398*PREVIEW* Indentured to Barry Piss: TF Reviews 'Years & Years' Episode 3 (feat. Devon)

E

This week, we're discussing Years & Years again. We simply couldn't cram two episodes into this round because there was so much going on--we want to get rid of our arms and legs, or replace our eyes with the light spectrum somehow--and so we gave this Lib Dem dystopian vision the attention it deserves. You may recognise Devon's voice from Da YouTube Zone and the Kill James Bond podcast, because they're back on to make it even spicier.

Ep 397The Ol’ Ball and Blockchain ft. Tom Walker

E

Comedian Tom Walker joins the gang to discuss how blockchain has finally disrupted dating! Then, we look at the demons pouring cryptocurrency poison into the ears of regulators in the US and U.K., a SoftBank insurance unicorn’s underwriting technology that isn’t, and we cap it off with a reading.

Ep 396*PREVIEW* Suffering From Long '90s

E

This week, Milo, Riley, and Alice explore the recent interventions of Tony Blair and Peter Mandelson into UK political discourse about 'what needs to happen in order for Labour to win.' We also make the mistake of thinking this is the free one, until the very end of the episode where we realize it's the bonus one. Sorry about that! We are, as ever, powerful thinkers.

Ep 395*PREVIEW* Britainology 16: Dogging feat. Hussein Kesvani

E

(This is a preview of this month's second Britainology, available to all our $10 subscribers) We greatly appreciated the suggestion from twitter user @underscoreJoeyB about an episode centered on dogging--the British phenomenon of meeting in the woods for anonymous sex. We brought on Kent's finest podcaster and our cohost Hussein Kesvani to discuss it, and to prepare for it we watched a horrific Channel 4 documentary from 2013 called 'Dogging Tales.' It's a whole hell of a lot!

Ep 394Luv Bin Men, ’Ate Grooming Gangs, and I Vote

E

Luv Bin Men, ’Ate Grooming Gangs, and I Vote This week, it’s the super chaos configuration of Milo, Hussein, and Nate discussing a recent story in the Times about how a local, locked Facebook group influenced an election in Greater Manchester by basically posting nonstop about how the Labour candidate was running a grooming gang. We also talk about terrible UK local news, how to read the temperature of the nation from Facebook comments, and much more.

Ep 392Posting Through Atrocity feat. Aron Keller

E

This week we're joined by Aron Keller (@aronkeller) of the anti-occupation advocacy group Na'amod to discuss the recent events in Gaza and the communications strategies (particularly the deranged ones) of the Israeli government. We also discuss Dave Cameron's released Greensill texts and assess why he's basically one of those retired Italian construction workers who hangs out at building sites giving unsolicited advice.

Ep 391*PREVIEW* Britainology 15: The Cambridge Spies

E

During World War II and the early Cold War there were a group of English intelligence operatives who spied for the Soviet Union. All of them basically walked around with huge neon signs attached to them that said 'I am a spy for the Soviet Union,' but due to the diamond-hard class solidarity of Britain's establishment, everyone forced themselves to not notice this. We brought on Alice to discuss the Cambridge Spies and we hope you enjoy it.

Ep 390*PREVIEW* Remember When The Bin Man Was Hard?

E

Labour MP Jon Cruddas has written the best approximation of what can be considered “Starmerism’s offer to British workers.” While some elements - eg a job guarantee - are better than nothing (but even then, run their own risk of rebuilding a modern workhouse depending on the shape of the policy), even at best, their desirability and strategy for achieving them are based on a vision of the economy that nobody under 70 would recognise as realistic. So come on an annoying journey through Blue Labour nostalgia for proper jobs, when the bin men were hard.

Ep 389Where We're Shopping, We Won't Need Eyes To See feat. This Machine Kills

E

Ed and Jathan from This Machine Kills (@machinekillspod) are back to discuss another titan of the tech industry. Amazon's annual leader to shareholders has been released, and in it they advance a sort of inverse labour theory of value (who can be surprised!), with hilarious results. It's scale is now approaching a level that is hard to comprehend, so come with us across the event horizon. But first, we discuss Labour's performance in the elections and the leadership's steadfast ability to not learn anything.

E

What if Black Mirror did This Is Us? What if your kid wanted to upload themselves to their dang phone? What if a Lib Dem wrote one of the worst TV dramas to ever exist?

Ep 387May 6th: The Cops Election

E

May 6th will mark regional local elections in the UK, to include the London mayoral election. Considering that 4 of the 5 of us are based in London, this does in fact affect us. However, all polling indicates that Sadiq Khan will win again on a platform of More Cops and handing all decisions to property developers, with the remaining candidates all basically wanting More Cops. Sian Berry? Bad. Laurence Fox? Don't make me laugh. Shaun Bailey? Joke. Brian Rose? Okay, he's extremely bad also, but that man is a verifiable content machine. So, we decided on a platform of 'vote if you want to do but don't really expect much either way' and then decided to talk about Brian Rose's completely bonkers life force. Hope you enjoy!

Ep 386*PREVIEW* Eating from the Toilet to Own the Libs

E

This was supposed to be a hard-hitting episode with an interview about Russia and leftism in Russian politics, but we had a classic TF season 1 moment when the recording failed. So, here's what we were able to salvage from the episode, with a great review of the recent UK op-ed about feeding yourself slop to trigger the woke left.

E

We've been very happy that you, the fans, have enjoyed Britainology so much. In an attempt to bridge the gap between our two cultures, Nate has brought on two fellow Midwesterners (Francis Horton from Hell of a Way, a native of St. Louis, Missouri; Joe Kassabian from Lions Led by Donkeys, a native of Detroit, Michigan) to flip the script on Milo. Now it's the good-natured Midwestern oafs in the driver's seat, and we explain the name of the region itself, why ICP had such appeal to our generation, and why literally everyone has a driving-while-intoxicated story involving being thrown out of someone's house.

Ep 378Waiting for Lordstown feat. Bryan Quinby

E

“We’re bringing the jobs back!” has long been the rallying cry of the right, but what kinds of businesses are actually coming back to places like Lordstown, Ohio? We are joined by Bryan Quinby (@murderxbryan) of Street Fight Radio to do a deep dive on Lordstown Motors - a “too good to be true” electric car manufacturer that has set up shop in the town of the same name. It’s all well and good when rich people take money off one another, but what about the workers who believe their lives are getting back on track? The primary source for this episode was this report published by short seller Hindenburg Research, which also similarly exposed Nikola. https://hindenburgresearch.com/lordstown/ If you want access to our Patreon bonus episodes and powerful Discord server, sign up here: https://www.patreon.com/trashfuture *NEW SHIRTS ALERT* We are accepting pre-orders for two new shirt designs -- get them here! https://www.trashfuture.co.uk/shop We support the London Renters Union, which helps people defeat their slumlords and avoid eviction.

Ep 376Met Police Given “Two Thumbs Up” by Met Police (feat. Leslie Kern)

E

We sat down with Leslie Kern (@LellyK)--feminist geographer, academic, and author of Feminist City: Claiming Space in a Man-Made World--to discuss what it means that "a feminist city is a police free city," in the wake of a slew of misogynistic, racist, and otherwise generally brutal actions attributed to London's finest. First, though, we take a look with some satisfaction at Deliveroo's shoddy IPO performance.

E

This week, we’re joined by Sam Knight of the District Sentinel (@TheDCSentinel) to discuss a U.S. Supreme Court case that may make it even harder for union organizers to meet with farm labourers in the US.

We also discuss Prince Harry becoming the chief engagement officer at a mental health startup in the US, because why wouldn’t he.
