Show Notes
Too much is happening at once. We've got repurposed Realdolls being pitched as AI robot teachers....or tutors, since supposedly the difference is crucial. We've got an eight-figure settlement in the case of eBay gangstalking bloggers and doing Jared Leto Joker pranks on them. We've got a wearable tech ring for being a better Evangelical Christian, but also somehow reinventing indulgences. We're grateful for Mattie Lubchansky and Josh Boerman for joining us to rejoice in it all. Check out No Gods No Mayors here! Check out the Worst of All Possible Worlds here!

Middle East correspondent Seamus Malekafzali returns to discuss the possible closure of the Bab-al-Mandab strait by the Houthis, why an $80bn Saudi defence budget Saudi can’t stop them, and how the US and Israel started something they couldn’t stop if they wanted to… and how this makes every fake Saudi arts or sports or tech washing project more worthless than usual.

We got outpaced again on the life and times of Kim Guilfoyle! But mainly we're here to discuss the Reform Candidates who repeated 1950's slurs into a boom mic (legitimate concerns!) LOUDLY AND SLOWLY, and the life, death, and bankruptcy of our old friend Character AI. Who knew the "Elsa From Frozen Tells You To Kill Your Parents" company that also has horrible unit economics wasn't going to be a viable business.

Musa joins us to discuss the recent controversies with Abu Dhabi, Man City, and why decades of underinvestment in the U.K. left us vulnerable to becoming the playthings of monarchies… also football. But first, we read an article about a perennial favourite subject: people incriminating themselves by text. Check out the Stadio podcast here!

Check out the full episode on Patreon here! Hussein tried to conduct some shoe leather journalism at the beating heart of the Holborn & St Pancras constituency: this one Blank Street Coffee franchise by the station that always has an enormous queue. Sadly he didn’t learn anything, and instead we’ve decided that whatever happens in the by-election, it’s got to be a bellwether of something that is bad for the left.

We have an opportunity to speak with Jay, a union organizer in the UK hospitality industry, about the ways in which that sector is particularly hostile to labour organizing and, unsurprisingly, owned by ghouls all the way up and down. But before that, Nate, Hussein, and November discuss Trump’s declaration about calling AI “Super Intelligence,” and the fact that he’s forced a bunch of tech CEOs to sign a half-baked manifesto about it. Jay’s union is Unite and you can learn more about it here! Get more TF episodes each week by subscribing to our Patreon here! RILEY ALERT Check out No Gods, No Mayors here!
