Dan Boeckner’s in town, so he joins us to talk about the ongoing trade chaos, the new plan by the Charter Cities Institute to make a sparkling tech enabled immigration detention centre / San Francisco competitor on a very controversial Navy Base, and finally we look at the just-released immigration white paper, where Sir Keir Starmer KC Human Rights Lawyer and Saviour of Sensible Politics comes juuuuust close enough to quoting Enoch Powell to raise an eyebrow.

Notes on the Crises’ Nathan Tankus returns to talk to Riley about 100 days of DOGE, and the catastrophic risks those broccoli haired little rascals pose the entire global financial system, in addition to the moral depravity of the whole enterprise. In the first half, Riley, Milo, and Hussein discuss yet more in the “AI will replace the human soul” file, and call a winner in the interim Starmer-Trump 2025 capitulation contest… but finals are still all to play for!

We review the recent spate of local elections that has everybody deciding retroactively that the Labour Party was always full of dangerous liars who could not be trusted to govern the country - if only someone had figured this out sooner. To start, though, we also look at the spate of religious and spiritual experiences people are attributing to AI, and Riley updates his favourite little bit of OSINT.

Luke Savage rejoins the gang to talk all about what Mark Carney’s government will actually bring Canada - the short answer is “more of the same shit that didn’t work the last four times it was tried.” Will this stop us making revolutionary jokes about Carney? Only time will tell, signs point to no. Also - we look at the rise of Hardman Labour, and read a truly horrifying exposé on Meta’s rules governing use of their chatbots.

We ring in the Carnation Revolution (more on that later), discuss the moral panic du jour in the U.K., and then cross stateside to discuss the group chat leaks of our close personal friend Mark Andreessen. Can’t believe all his courtier suck ups turned out to be snakes.

We return to U.K. shores to look at the state of national party politics in advance of local elections, and think of who would win in a capitulating contest between Starmer and Trump.

Alex Scaggs of The Hedge (https://theehedge.substack.com) joins us to talk about the economic chaos unleashed on the world by… Fed Chair Paul Volcker between 1979 and 1982. This episode tries to make sense of the ongoing American trade war with much of the rest of the world - going into the history of the American grand treat bargain, how the character of manufacturing has changed, and the psychiatry of why the guy from Cantor Fitzgerald wants you to stop sending emails and start hitting the girder with the big hammer.

404 Media’s Jason Koebler joins us to discuss the hot new book Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams, where a senior Facebook executive confirms, very gratifyingly, that all the worst things we knew about Facebook were - in fact - true and on purpose.

This week, Riley interviews disability activist and Manchester Metropolitan University professor Dr Lucy Burke about upcoming Labour policy changes to enact even more cruelty against the disabled under the guise of ‘combatting benefits culture.’ The combined gang of Riley, Hussein, and November also discuss the non-America news, particularly regarding countries actually defending themselves against right-wing takeovers? It is, somehow, possible.

Also, the degeneration of the state into personal enforcement fiefdoms, and the likely eventual Democratic leadership response (“we would do the black bagging much better”).

Riley, Nova, and HK discuss the Labour Party’s planned campaign of social murder against the disabled in the UK - including a deep dive on the ongoing poster-to-policy pipeline around the recent (and not so recent) attacks on the Motability charity - that is described as “not austerity, because it’s half of what Osborne did.” Also, finance a burrito (US edition), the podcast discusses a new morning routine, and Quibi’s Meg Whitman returns from her ambassadorship to Kenya (???) to a board seat at Coreweave.

It’s time for another examination of historical parallels with lessons for our own time - today Patrick Wyman joins the gang to discuss the late Byzantine empire… a state with such a self referential, cosseted elite that they found themselves sprinkling imperial procession routes with rose water while their entire society crumbled from the outside in. Also, getting caught red handed in the metaverse, the Shawinigan Cocktail, and butter is churned into guns.
