TRASHFUTURE

We're joined by recurring guest and friend of the show Ed Zitron to discuss Stargate, the Citrini AI report, and an article about someone's quest to make eternal Scott Adams. For lack of a better word, it is a lot.

An upcoming by-election in Gorton and Denton has the British political class confronting, and failing to learn from, the fact that at some point someone has to govern. In a war of bins versus posts, they've decided to go all-out with posting, firing up the Anti-Corbyn Machine against Zack Polanski and failing to grasp why the Green Party might actually appeal to voters. And in order to understand this, we've assembled Riley, Hussein, and November to cut through the noise. We also discuss a new podcast entitled The Rest Is Prison, which hardly needs to be explained!

We've unlocked this bonus episode! We've had a perfect storm of illness among the entire cast and it became impossible to record this week, but we'll be back later in the week with a new bonus, and will have a new free episode next week.

Riley, Nova, and Hussein chug some down some heavy metals, talk about rare earths, ChatGPT’s OTHER other detour into porn (before curing cancer), and the slow death of neoliberalism. Then, Wired does some crucial journalism: talking to Cybertruck owners who all need to find polite ways of saying they have a “getting yelled at” fetish.

Cory’s back and in studio! We talk about the financial and legal shenanigans plaguing Elon Musk’s latest wheeze, reconfirm data centres in space are utterly moronic (part of said wheeze), and check in on the latest round of mawkish sentimentality being used to extend the surveillance state. Also we learn about a dot com bubble era startup called Cab Candy, which does exactly what you think it does.

We discuss the new Epstein revelations that show that jeevacation also had a day job as a kind of nefarious Forrest Gump, facilitating or gleefully observing a huge number of the events that made our world feel so irredeemable, connecting a world of post-Soviet and American oligarchs with European aristocrats, western financiers, and basically every intelligence agency. In the second half, we talk to sociologist Paolo Gerbaudo about Ellison and friends’ acquisition of TikTok USDS and what that means for politics and social media going forward.
