Josh returns this week as we talk about Joyce Carol Oates once again DESTROYING Elon Musk in the battle of ideas, and what her observations online reveal about the true insecurities tech billionaires have now.
We then talk about a New Yorker article trying to figure out if LLMs can actually think (Spoiler: no) and the struggles facing professional AI Boosters as they sense the bubble about the burst, and we mourn a man who has lost his last Ape.

Tuesday Nov 11, 2025
This week, we take a slight break from discussing the horrors of the internet to talk about their Autumn grievances, including the shut down of local parks in order to host fireworks displays for the pleasure of influencers. We also talk about Remembrance Sunday, as Hussein tries to convince Phoebe that the poppies have become bigger and brighter, and what It might suggest about the nation’s inability to truly reflect and mourn over its past.

Friend of the show Oobah Butler returns to talk about his latest documentary, How to Make a Million in 90 days.
Live from New York, Oobah tells us about the murky financial world he stumbled upon while making the documentary, filled with bored fintech CEOs and finance guys devoid of any real ideas, and desperate to make as much money as they can through exploiting attention and hype. We also talk about why this project may have been Oobah’s funniest, but also most depressing – and what happens when a documentarian has to confront a group of people who refuse to engage with reality, while using their wealth to manipulate the world around them.

An Archive of One’s Own ft. Alexis Durante-Tierney & Helen Vogelsong-Donahue
Tuesday Oct 28, 2025
Tuesday Oct 28, 2025
This week, we talk about what the decaying internet means for regular people – especially those who rely on janky, corporate owned hosting platforms to maintain archives of their work, or cherished old memories. Alexis and Helen outline the scale of the problem, and explain why, despite its urgency, few tech companies are interested in the work of preserving and conserving our data.
We then talk about the work of volunteer and non-profit organisations, including the Accessible Archivists Coalition, working to preserve older versions of the internet, and discuss some of the strategies you can employ at home to extract your online history, and the tools you can use to preserve it for the future.

Fighter and journalist Tom Usher returns to the show this week to explain how far right politics took over Mixed Martial Arts, and the unique media strategy employed by the UFC to quash dissent and insert itself as a dominant political force in America. Tom talks about the way violence and suffering has been exploited by the Trump administration to advance its own political aims, while also creating endless spectacles and distractions for his supporters. Tom also talks about his new project, Tangible Vibe Shift, and the challenge of explaining how and why daily life feels so strange and melancholic.

This Immortal Coil ft. Hanna Thomas Uose
Tuesday Oct 07, 2025
Tuesday Oct 07, 2025
This week, we're joined by the novelist Hanna Thomas Uose to talk about her debut work Who Wants To Live Forever , published by Brazen/Hatchette.
Hanna and Hussein talk about the central theme of the novel – the desire to extend one's life, and ones time being alive – and how it reflects contemporary anxieties on ageing, the melancholy of elder millennials, and the idea of being 'useful' under capitalism. Hanna also talks about how this differs from tech billionaire's obsessions with extending their own lives, what it tells us about their own desires for power and control, and what the future might look like if Silicon Valley decided to commodify both space and time itself.

This week, our pal November returns to the show to talk about going on her first Live Action Roleplay (LARP).
She tells us about the hobby, what the LARP community looks like, and how it accommodates newbies and veterans. She tells us about the virtue of meeting your online friends in real life, and how these kinds of communities can provide a comforting, protective space, in part because of how it is deliberately removed from the social relations that mediate our online lives.
But first, Phoebe has a wonderful new Goo to tell us about.

The Last Bunnings Snag Outta Naarm ft. Cameron Wilson
Tuesday Sep 16, 2025
Tuesday Sep 16, 2025
Journalist and Author Cameron Wilson returns to the show this week to talk about his new book, Conspiracy Nation: Exposing the Dangerous World of Australian Conspiracy Theories, co-authored with Ariel Bogle.
Hussein and Cameron talk about the conspiracies, both mundane and over-arching, that have gripped British and Australian political culture, and how the platform-based internet turned fringe conspiratorial arguments into subcultures, and eventually, influential talking points in mainstream politics. They also talk about the real-life consequences of conspiracy theories, the effects on those who have lost loved ones to the messianic promises of conspiratorial cults, and what it might take to try and, at the very least, slow down the process of online radicalisation.
