Dunking Your Head into the Quizbowl ft. Ed Campbell

Ed Campbell, Correspondent and Senior Political Producer at PoliticsJoe, joins us this week to talk about the morning routine and sigma grindset required to nearly win Britain’s favourite game show, The Chase. We talk about ice bowl dunks, getting evicted from your apartment for leaving too many banana peels on the floor, before moving onto Ed’s experience on The Chase. Ed gives us an insight into how the show works, the strategy he developed to take on each potential Chaser, and an exploration into the fan communities of quizzers who study the game show as if it was a science.  Follow Ed on X and Instagram at @Edcmpbl  Watch the PoliticsJoe podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/@PoliticsJOE ------ PALESTINE  AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.

Based in LA, you may know him from his acting roles in Kid Cannabis and Project X, or as a former co-host of the podcast Struggle Session. We talk to Jonathan about his early experiences trolling on forums, his early introduction to cinema via rental stores, and the ways the industry has changed as a result of streaming services determining what films get made and distributed.

[UNLOCKED] 10k Film Club: "Eighth Grade" ft. Hannah Strong

This is an unlocked bonus episode, originally aired on the 8th of March, 2024. Check it out on our Patreon! -------- We're joined by the writer and film critic Hannah Strong to talk about "Eighth Grade" the 2018 film debut from musician, comedian and Youtuber Bo Burnham.   The film explores the final days of middle school for a young American girl, and her relationship to her family, her social circle as well as the alternative persona she has made for herself online. We discuss why this might be one of the few successful examples of how social media can be depicted on screen, how much of this derived from Burnham's own experiences on the platforms, and whether, in spite of its successes, it really does capture the lived experiences of young Americans.   Purchase Hannah's Book: 'Sofia Coppola: Forever Young' here: Sofia Coppola: Forever Young'   --------  ------ PALESTINE  AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.

Parents' Evening ft. Annie Kelly [PREVIEW]

This is a preview of a bonus episode. Find the rest, and our entire backlog, at patreon.com/10kpostspodcast Writer, researcher and co-host of QAnon Anonymous Annie Kelly returns to the show as we talk about the long tail of QAnon, and its lasting remnants on the ‘mainstream’ internet – in particular, in parenting content.  Annie explains how conspiracy theories seamlessly infiltrated the online lives of parents, exploiting the vulnerability of caring for a newborn, at a time when state support and medical care for many parents continues to diminish. We also talk about the ways parenting ‘influencers’ have changed, and why they are much more open to embracing, and marketing conspiracy theories as a way to promote their content.  Listen and subscribe to QAnon Anonymous: https://t.co/YWYEp5SGIV Read Julian Feeld’s piece in Jacobin: https://jacobin.com/2025/02/qanon-legacy-conspiracy-trump-patel/ ------ PALESTINE  AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.

Springtime In Germany ft. Corner Späti

Nick and Ciarán from Corner Späti come on the show this week to talk about the recent elections in Germany, and the specific ways in which posting influenced its outcome. We talk about the rise of the far-right AfD and the ineffectiveness of liberal politics to counter it, and the surprise surge of the left-wing Die Linke.  We also talk about rising authoritarianism in Germany and the ways in which historical memory is abused, resulting in an increased targeting of Muslim immigrants, as well as police being given extra powers to punitively punish protesters at Palestine rallies, and arrest people for posting online.

A Regrettable Victory Lap [PREVIEW]

This is a preview of a bonus episode! Check it out on our Patreon, patreon.com/10kpostspodcast. This week, we discuss whether the recent changes in the US government- along with the formation of DOGE- is sufficient evidence to suggest that the thesis of this show, "Everything is Posting" has been vindicated, and what it means for the rest of the world that we are now ruled by the forum guys and gamers. We also look back on some of the moments that took us here, and ask why, despite posting driving so many world events, mainstream media outlets still can't seem to get a grasp of what posting actually is. ------ PALESTINE  AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.
