PREVIEW: Cell Block IPA ft. David Banks
Riley, Milo (now returned from holiday), Alice, and special guest David Banks (author of The City Authentic, out now on University of California Press) get into the relationship between real estate capital and the municipal deep state to answer the question: how the same twee aesthetic took over medium sized cities in the US, UK, Australia, and elsewhere, and why has BrewDog set itself up in the prison where they held Ned Kelly?

Big Paper is Watching
Riley, Hussein, and Nate look at the collision course between a rentier economy with a shrinking set of (allegedly) productive activities to support it… and realise the podcast has become de facto illegal in Brisbane for our consistent pro-hoon position, for which we make no apologies.

*PREVIEW* Eric Adams’s Long Pizza Necropolis feat. Mattie Lubchansky
This week, we've brought on friend of the show Mattie Lubchansky to discuss a whole slew of New York content. We do a close read of a frankly bonkers speech that Mayor Eric Adams gave at a Nowruz celebration, examine the breathlessly optimistic press about NYPD robot dogs that fall over after taking a single step, and discuss reports that high-priced Manhattan commercial real estate is headed for a steep decline. But, could we at least convert the office towers to residences? Well, not for the living.

Some Day a Real Use Case Will Come feat. Molly White
This week, Riley, Milo, and Alice speak with friend of the show Molly White (@molly0xFFF) about a recent presentation from Andreesen Horowitz in which they predict… a much rosier 2023 for crypto, Web 3.0, and the various other VC money-sumps that will magically resolve their structural problems any day now.

*PREVIEW* Britainology 59: Australians in Britain feat. Sanspants Radio
For this month's first Britainology, we've decided to invert the formula of our last show with Jackson Baly and Joel Zammit of Sanspants Radio: instead of Brits in Australia, we're now discussing Australians in Britain. And we cover everything from the celebrities--your Peter Andre, your Jason Donovan, your Nick Cave--to the strange cultural phenomena like the Aussie magnet of Clapham Common and the insensitively-named chain of Oz-themed bars. We very much hope you enjoy!

Britain Hates Its Children feat. Devon
This week, Riley, Hussein, Alice, and Devon talk about the latest salvo in Britain’s war on children, especially gender non-conforming ones, in all facets of life—but especially in education and safeguarding. We also react to one of the dumbest AI-related startups yet.

*PREVIEW* Checking in with Markus Braun: TF Live in Berlin
We did a live show in Berlin on March 11 and we recorded it. We discuss our best friends from Wirecard, an electric VTOL taxi company that has, so far, only created a fake airport terminal in Coventry but cannot actually fly anywhere, and much more.

Against Enshitification feat. Cory Doctorow
This week, Riley, Hussein, and Alice speak with author, activist, and friend of the show Cory Doctorow about the ongoing lawsuit against the Internet Archive—a campaign by the mega-conglomerate publishers of America which all hate free digital book lending—and why public libraries are squarely in their money-squeezing targets. We also talk about some great developments in some of the dumbest crypto / lending fraud cases, where it seems the brightest minds of the 30 Under 30 list forgot that prosecutors can subpoena your emails. We hope you enjoy!
