TRASHFUTURE

The garbagemen Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani) are joined by leftist journalist and author Hannah Jewell (@HCJewell), whose new book 100 Nasty Women of History came out last week! We talk with her about labour organising and feminism in the digital age AND in history (both!), and also a bunch of other dumb internet nonsense. DUMB INTERNET NONSENSE includes, but is not limited to, the Bin Laden files, the Antifa attack that wasn't (or at the time of recording, was not to be), liberal morons sanctimoniously reinventing philosophy, and the antinatalism of the British royal family, and whatever else I can't remember. Like and subscribe fools! (PS: we've had to cancel the show next week due to scheduling issues - but stay tuned in January!)

Another half sode this week pals... but this time, it's due to technical issues. My computer ate the second half. This was an episode we - Riley (@raaleh) and Milo (@milo_edwards) recorded with comedian Phil Wang (@PhilNWang) last month, and we bullshit for a while about a few dumb inventions and other fun nonsense! We recorded this episode last month, just before Hussein (@HKesvani) joined up full, so expect to see more of him in the coming weeks as we start recording afresh.

Half ‘sode this week with your boys – Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@milo_edwards), and Hussein (@HKesvani), sit down with Ryan Broderick (@Broderick), deputy global head of news at Buzzfeed and host of the Internet Explorer podcast to get a run down his experience hosting a Russian futurism conference (spoiler alert it sucks and nothing works). Short ‘sode this week because Ryan had to run in the middle because the GODDAMN NEWS never sleeps. We were gonna do a smart episode I swear. We just got way too stupid. In other news we’re having our very first LIVE SHOW in London at the Betsey Trotwood on November 14th with… Riley, Hussein, and Ryan Broderick (from this very show!), joined by friends of the show Pierre Novellie, Alex Kealy, and Olga Koch. We’ll be doing a mix of stand up and “show,” and at £7, you can’t afford NOT to go.

Riley (@raaleh) Milo (@milo_edwards) and Charlie (@cfppalmer) - we promise the triumphant return of Hussein (@HKesvani) next week - talk with writer and journalist and Novara senior editor, Eleanor Penny (@eleanorkpenny) about... *klaxons* sex robots! We focus especially on the Ibsen that is sex robot dialogue, the philosophical issues with robotizing women, and reading through/owning the milquetoast apology by the company that made that rape-able alliterative robot (Frigid Farrah... remember that? Fuck). Milo also tells us about a bizarre show he heard on LBC where a racist shouts about how much he hates the film Ghost.

Riley (@raaleh) Milo (@milo_edwards) and, guest host Pierre (@pierrenovellie) conclude our marathon recording session with Matt Zarb-Cousin (@mattzarb), talking about Fixed Odds Betting Terminals (FOBTs), the digital slot machines gracing every betting shop in this geohell of ours... and how they're being beaten. We also talk about a brilliant new kitchen gadget with one moving part and zero moving brains.

No Hussein (@HKesvani) or Charlie (@cfppalmer) this week; instead Riley (@Raaleh) and Milo (@Milo_Edwards) are joined by Pierre Novellie (@pierrenovellie)... and Matt Zarb-Cousin (@mattzarb), an actual smart person (!) who shows for the second half of Part I, and all of Part II - which is out tomorrow. We talk about Perkbox - a company we may have started beefing with on twitter (we see you Perkbox) for giving bosses seeking employee engagement an alternative to "just pay them more, idiot," and Hampton Creek, a $1.1bn technology platform that exclusively makes weird mayonnaise.

The garbagemen (@raaleh, @milo_edwards, @cfppalmer) sit down with Hussein Kesvani (@HKesvani) to talk about Bullshit Jobs - people taking abuse on Twitter for Virgin Rail while Rome burns. We also talk about a compurerised denim jacket you have to charge before you wear, and try to parse an article about a new kind of search engine without a search functionality. Like, share, subscribe, and send us nice letters if you can find our address.

Riley (@raaleh) Milo (@milo_edwards) and Olga (@rocknrolga) sit down for what is probably the least coherent episode we've ever recorded. We talk about the Bodega, which is a stupid start up that invented a vending machine in order to spread poverty around the world, and about the Inspiration Trust's newest kid jail in Great Yarmouth, which requires you to shit in a bucket while making full eye contact with a teacher. Because of respect. STREET respect.

Aidan (@AJ_Taco) joins (@raaleh) Riley and Milo (@milo_edwards) to chat real estate in London, the world's Worst Thing. Aidan has a show and a blog called The Abersham Flat (http://theabershamflat.blogspot.co.uk/), detailing his experience living on the fringes of London housing, with an insane con man pretending to be his landlord. It's absolutely fucking wild. It's one of the last Edinburgh episodes before we start recording again.

Holy wow it's another Edinburgh episode. This week we sit down with returning guest Alex Kealy to discuss... The SMALT. Perhaps the dumbest product yet for the biggest non problem yet. And then, after the break we read choice selections from a book called Little Wins: The Huge Power of Thinking Like A Toddler, by Paul Lindley, the founder of Ella's Kitchen. Like all the best business books, it reminds us the secret to entrepreneurial success is to be so wealthy and well connected before you even try that you're basically guaranteed to succeed even if you constantly trip up over your own dick. Paul, please come on the show.
