Tech journalist and friend of the show Chris Stokel-Walker returns to talk about the Online Safety Act, and why its roll out now means you can’t brew Kombucha without submitting your passport details to Reddit first. Chris talks to us about the politics of the Online Safety Act, what it means for the future of internet access, and how it sets a path for future governments to be more authoritarian with online regulation. In the second half of the episode, the lads talk about Trump’s recent posts on Truth Social, in which he officially becomes a stan in the Sydney Sweeney hive, and why sometimes it’s nice to take a long melancholic walk on the roof of your house by yourself.

Mattie returns to the show to talk about her early memories on the internet, and how it shaped both her work, and her posting.
We talk for a surprising amount of time about Labubu, digging into its lore, as well as working out how to spot a fake one. We then talk about about Mattie’s latest graphic novel, ‘Simplicity’, which examines cults, communities and what it means to go and find yourself.

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.
You can read about November’s experience on the LARP, here: https://novemberkel.ly/2025/07/06/wing-and-a-prayer/

Sociologist and political economist Will Davies joins the show to talk about his recent forays into Faragist TikTok, and what it tells us about Britain’s online habits, and how it’s influencing contemporary politics. Will talks to us about how the For You Page became the dominant organisational system for using social media, and how this has created an anti-social environment. He also explains how online induced paranoia seeped into the real world, convincing people that they are being scammed and persistently lied to, resulting in an angrier, more confrontational politics that nobody, including Nigel Farage, knows how to contain or control in the long term.

Can you believe it's already been 5 whole years since we first got together on a sunny July morning in Lockdown to talk about Eric Garland's game theory thread? We can't, and we needed to be reminded by instagram to even realise. So, to celebrate, we gathered questions from our loyal listeners, and today we're finally getting to the bottom of: What kind of poster would Yukio Mishima be if he were still around? What kind of posts do we miss the most? How has the show changed now that we're both parents, and if we entered the babies into a baby contest, what would they win? All this and more!

Rebecca returns to the show to talk about her recent attempts to reclaim her attention from screens and notifications, and whether it’s truly possible to build an attention span at all.
We discuss the developing literature and research around attention, and what is meant when we talk about focus, delve into the great debate on declining literacy rates & whether we are heading toward a ‘post-literate’ society, and whether the small, but growing number of people trying to better manage their time online might be an effective starting point to challenge the algorithms.

Four app billionaires sequester themselves in a mountaintop mansion as online misinformation brings the world to its knees. How will this affect their friendship, and more importantly, their net worths?

This week, we're joined by friend of the show and returning champion Eleanor Janega, as well as her 'We're Not So Different' podcast co-host Luke Waters, to talk about Hildegard of Bingen, a 12th century Benedictine Abbess. Known for her religious visions, and the writing, sermons and music that emerged from them, Hildegard is often considered a polymath, and as one of the founders of german scientific natural history.
We talk about Hildegard’s place in high medieval society, the breadth of her writing - from religious commentary to linguistics and natural science - and of course, whether she had the spirit of a Poster.

This week, Hussein and Phoebe catch up on stuff happening online. They talk about Catturd (pronunciation TBD) ending his friendship with Elon Musk over politics and what this tells us about how the verification system is going.
They also talk about addressing their screen time for the sake of their kids, and remembering what’s truly important in the world, which, of course, is a deep dive on why Joyce Carol Oates posts so well and the power of simply asking people to explain why they think the things they do.

Miles returns to the show this week to talk about why so many people are starting to treat Chat GPT as a deity, and are willing to sacrifice their friendships and intimate relationships so they can worship the computer. Miles talks about the people who have lost their loved ones to LLMs and the work it takes to bring them back from the brink, why tech companies are unwilling to stop this from happening, and the ways that religious organisations are forced to compete with AI on matters of textual interpretation and issuing spiritual guidance.
