E422 - Burnham After Reading ft. Phil McDuff

Sun, 17 May 2026 06:00:00 +0100

Student of Why Labour is Like This Phil McDuff joins us as we wade through the predictably hilarious fallout from the 2026 Local Elections. Plaid, GPEW and, sadly, Reform all had a pretty good night all told. But there was still plenty of fruitless political flailing to be seen in Keir Starmer's AI-generated speech to save his career, as well as the hapless buffoon(s) who intended to challenge his leadership.

E421 PREVIEW - The Grinding of Isaac ft. Sinan

Tue, 12 May 2026 06:00:00 +0100

David has been wronged in some way by Alasdair, and therefore made him and Jamie (re)watch the latest and greatest Star Wars film. Sinan also joins us as we descend into madness. This is JJ Abrams' badly written world and we are all trapped here.

E420 - The Fray After Tomorrow ft. Sinan

Wed, 06 May 2026 14:12:40 +0100

This year's local elections are about to be upon us, so we thought we would sit down with our good friend Sinan to look at where all the players currently sit, only to discover that Labour and the Tories both appear to have started smoking the cigars they used to try and kill Castro. We also learn about Dr. Eggman's latest innovation in getting the computer to stop lying.

E419 - Ballroom Crits

Fri, 01 May 2026 06:00:00 +0100

We report on partyliament, where the fun never stops - at least until some brutal killjoy dares to ask "why does everyone voting to make our laws smell like a pub carpet?" at which point the music stops and the knives come out. Also we read an article about the terrifying scourge of left wing political violence, written by a man who knows less than nothing about anything.

E418 PREVIEW - Barnsley Rubble

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0100

The north is levelling up again, this time thanks to AI and Cyber and other such concepts. It's definitely going to revitalise things and not just extract even more wealth to hand to clowns who work in tech, the government pinky swears. Also, and I'm quite sure this won't effect the previous thing I mentioned at all so don't worry, AI isn't making anyone any money and the whole house of cards is teetering on the brink of calamity. Finally, to take a break from The Bottomless Slop Fountain That is Wrong About Everything, we check how centrist journalists are coping with the fall of Sir Keir Starmer.

E417 - Breakfast Epiphanies

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0100

It's yet more fallout from the Mandelson scandal, son. Also the goverment announced a 33% increase in Almost Nothing for children. Then we read an absolutely infuriating article that has everyone feeling tons of sympathy for the plight of their social betters. Plus CoC and the return of Heat Madness, which seems to come around earlier every year.

E416 PREVIEW - Independence Delay

Sun, 19 Apr 2026 14:39:38 +0100

We hate to be the bearers of bad news but the revolution isn't as imminent as it seemed. Also David has a scotpol roundup. And then we catch up with the world's Realest Country™ as they caper and prance on the world stage.

E415 - You Break It, Dubai It

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 11:41:04 +0100

Today we take a look at Rachel Reeve's latest move to build confidence with the worst type of Briton: The Dubai Influencer. We also discuss Mark Zuckerberg's latest effort to build a machine in his own pale image. And for the main course, we dine down on a plate of "drill baby drill never works...but it could work for us," and do the number thing at North Sea gas.

E414 PREVIEW - Team Fortress Europe

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0100

As the world held its breath last week, hoping America wouldn't blow up the earth, we watched Gerard Butler's latest "masterpiece" Greenland 2: Migration. No we didn't think it deserved a sequel either.

E413 - Smears and Present Dangers ft. Juliet Jacques

Sat, 11 Apr 2026 06:00:00 +0100

Pod favourite Juliet Jacques joins us as we run through Sam Altman's latest efforts to prevent being rotated along an inconvenient axis. And for our main topic we bring ourselves up to do date with the latest sackings and resignations from the Labour Party in the wake of Mandelson's ejection back in February.

E412 - Tom Clancy's Meal Deal Six

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 11:14:38 +0100

We're running the gamut on this episode, from the high stakes of America's incredible and completely realistic plans to win the war with Iran, to the lowest possible stakes of Matt Goodwhinge complaining that his latest book wasn't written by a robot. Then we wrap up with an exciting article about how the humble supermarket, much like friendship, is magic.

E411 PREVIEW - Take Your Work To Car Day

Sat, 28 Mar 2026 07:52:40 +0000

It's time for the Great British Tradition of Beige Dinner, as we provide you with a plate of news nuggets. We're playing all the hits: yank horrors, British racists, Labour painting themselves into a corner, and a completely ridiculous bit of tech that will never catch on. All the stars are here! Also there's Comment or Commentariat.

E410 - Saving Private Finance

Fri, 27 Mar 2026 09:26:02 +0000

A global finance market that's going so well, some people at Goldman Sachs are happy a war is on so people aren't looking? That sounds good! It's Real Finance Hours as we discuss private finance and also an automotive monument to hubris and epic bacon.

We finally talk about Operation Enduring Shambles or whatever tier one operator name the US Department of Warfighting has given to their ongoing mission to reclaim the warcrimes highscore while simultaneously riding the stock market around like a hobby horse and firing sixguns into the air. Plus, the government can't get any houses built. Plus ça change.

E408 PREVIEW - Serfing The Web

Tue, 24 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Guess which two letters we're talking about tonight? That's right, it's your favourites again: A and I! I am so tired. But you can rejoice becuase your next job could finally be in cyber! Imagine working for an autocorrect, which is itself working for some dork who shouldn't be trusted with a computer. It's like fiverr but there's an LLM in between you and the person hiring you, which I'm sure we can all agree will only make things more efficient. Also we hear about an AI for babies - spoiler alert, it's terrible.

E407 - Squirrels Just Want to Have Funds ft. Josh Boerman

Thu, 19 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Are you tired of hearing about AI constantly, as if it was the only thing anyone in power cares about and they're all determined to cram it into every aspect of your life whether you want it or not? Well then buckle up, as we're joined by Josh Boerman from The Worst Of All Possible Worlds to talk about AI again. But first, if you have a half a million quid to burn then you can join a very exclusive club that Liz Truss is setting up. Also Rachel Reeves would very much like it if you'd tip your savings into the Howling Vortex of Wealth Extraction, for the good of the economy. Growth growth growth!

E406 - A Jury Of Your Keirs

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 06:00:00 +0000

Join us for a delightfully whimsical tour through the wreckage of the British state. We've got absolutely no money for anything and the government couldn't care if you live or die - but on the plus side at least your energy bills are skyrocketing, some twerp is trying to force ID cards on us yet again, and jury trials are being replaced with one posh guy deciding he doesn't like the cut of your jib.

E402 - Royal Flushed

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 06:00:00 +0000

This week's news roundup is more exciting than usual, as the government teases us with the idea that society's upper echelons are not immune from the consequences of their actions. Also, and stop me if you've heard this one, but the Americans might be starting a war in, get this, the middle east. Then for our main topic, we discuss why councils can't provide even a sliver of public services because Everything Must Go.

We're drawing on local reporting by https://bsky.app/profile/danhollandnews.bsky.social for this episode, so go give him a follow!

E377 PREVIEW - Milfs & Boon

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 06:00:00 +0000

We all noticed Amazon Web Services exploding last week and taking half of the internet offline but if you thought it was bad that you couldn't look at cat videos then spare a thought for god's sleepiest soldiers. Also in sports news, the UK Government have played an absolute blinder. Finally we read from the book that Rob left us and get very mad.

E372 - Pish in Place

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 08:13:31 +0100

This week, Rob introduces us to whichever numbered relaunch's flagship Labour policy the Pride in Place scheme is, which is DEFINITELY a brand new idea which has never been tried before and CANNOT be shattered by that one trick we do, and is ABSOLUTELY built on a solid understanding of community.

E371 - Boring Kitty

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 06:00:00 +0100

It's the movie that shows you how cool and rebellious posting on Reddit is, and that the best way to defeat capitalist institutions is to enter the shiny casino and watch the line. Would it surprise you to learn this is a Rob Pick, and why he's normally banned from doing this?

Watch the Dan Olsen/Folding Ideas video about the aftermath; it's way better than this trashfire: https://youtu.be/5pYeoZaoWrA

E370 PREVIEW - The Wrong March

Nigel Thistledown has outcompeted us in the marketplace of podcasting, but thankfully a new life awaits us in the shipyards! Also, we check in with the unparalled success and good judgement displayed by the Labour Party, and a little light whitewashing of the growing fascist movement in Britain.

E369 - In Arnolds' Field

Thu, 18 Sep 2025 06:00:00 +0100

Come with us to a small, derelict field just outside London where - thanks to a truly horrific combination of incompetence, malevolence, and greed - local citizens suffer what they must while everyone with power and money passes the buck or pretends the underground cancer fires aren't anything to worry about. In any normal country, there would be public hearings, major reforms, and a well-funded cleanup job. But this is Britain.

E367 - Operation oMAHA

Thu, 04 Sep 2025 14:20:28 +0100

Mon, 25 Aug 2025 15:45:26 +0100

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0100

Chaos reigns as we round up some current events and then read an article by one of the worst people Britain has ever produced, which is a real achievement when you consider what British people are like. Also there's the unwelcome return of heat madness.

E361 PREVIEW - Circular Reasoning

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 06:01:00 +0100

It's part two of our adventure into the fabulous world of Moral Ambition and we learn about all the ways wealthy liberals are planning to save us. Also comment or commentariat is back, thanks to Labour finding new ways to annoy everyone.

Fri, 08 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0100

Join us for the first of two episodes on the latest way for people with too much money to make themselves feel better about the end of the world: Moral Ambition.

Dan's on to talk about the report he co-authored with Tom Mills and Tom Chivers - Our Mutual Friend: The BBC in the Digital Age, which posits wild ideas like "what if the public broadcaster was actually run by the public".

E356 - Great British Ennui

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 09:20:21 +0100

Are you excited to hear about how Labour are going to lower your energy bills with Great British Energy? Well don't be. Unless you're yet another middleman, hoping to socialise your risks but privatise your rewards - in which case you have reason enough to get yourself down to big tesco for some paper plates and cocktail sausages. Also (say it with me), AI is the future of the nation.

E355 - A Bit of Reeves and Mortgages

Thu, 17 Jul 2025 07:21:25 +0100

The government is finally Big Banging Money In Your Pockets! Or, it's 10,000 mortgages and financial deregulation hiding in a trenchcoat. You decide. Also: we think of the children, and liberals have advice for Mamdani's campaign.

E354 - Hot Off The Press ft. Mic Wright

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 13:04:07 +0100

Fri, 27 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0100

After discovering a new frontier of horrors which only the AI obsessed tech industry can bring about on the first of this months bonus episodes, we decided to boldly go to an even worse depth of the problem. Also, Pabour Larty.

Content warnings (seriously, it gets heavy) - mental health, suicide, AI bringing humanity to new lows

E350 PREVIEW - The Worst of Thames

Thu, 26 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0100

It's a wonderful day to pretend it's a week ago (when this was recorded). Think of all the possible futures you could live! Mayhaps one where the water is nationalised, peace reigns in the middle east, and AI doesn't exist - anything is possible if you just pretend it is!

Content warnings for: depressing chatbot questions (seriously), domestic abuse, suicide

E349 - Action Manager

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 07:57:53 +0100

Remember the inquiry into grooming gangs that didn't support the right wing's racist assertions on who was responsible? Well the government is having a do over until they get the result they want. We also read an article about Britain's Bestest Prime Minister ever.

Content warning for discussion of sex trafficking/assault and racism

E348 - Bad Nauseum

Fri, 13 Jun 2025 08:06:27 +0100

The strategic defence review got published and was over 100 pages long so obviously Rob read it to discover wonderful new frontiers in boondoggling. Also, Alasdair takes us on a brief visit to the worst country in the world (america) before swinging back to the other worst country in the world (britain) for David to hold a big magnifying glass over Labour like it's a big ant hill.

E344 - Butter Emails

Fri, 23 May 2025 12:00:00 +0100

We tick the DWP boxes and seriously apply for a real job in the growing political entertainment complex, clear up what the Supreme Court ruling means in praxis (obviously), and enlist as Blade Runners.

We discuss the Definitely Not Racism Speech, but honestly most of the episode is a long game of Heat Madness or Gasleak as we reskill into writing wikis.

E341 - Chopaganda

Fri, 09 May 2025 06:00:00 +0100

Tonight's top story: Labour sucks. But before we get to that, can we interest you in hearing about how Labour sucks? Or if you're in the mood for something different, we can regale you with last week's local election results - spoiler alert: Labour sucks!

E336 - Trotsky Cross the Mersey

Fri, 18 Apr 2025 06:00:00 +0100

The British state's long history of betraying workers isn't new, but does often revolve around Liverpool. Come learn about why Labour freaks get so mad when they talk about Militant, something in history that has NO PARALLELS WITH TODAY. So that's good.

E335 - War Andor Peace (Part 3)

Tue, 15 Apr 2025 06:00:00 +0100

You were beginning to doubt we'd actually drop a third episode, and yet. Due to some scheduling issues we actually had to record what would have been Parts 3 (discussion of Episode 7) and 4 (Episodes 8-10) together and it was just easier to make it a long one, so here you go!

We've got one more of these to get out covering the final arc, which you will have in advance of season 2 starting next week, though please don't get excited about the idea of us doing this all over again for the new season, because we've got no current plans to commit to that much extra stuff and I (David) don't want season 2 to be work before it's entertainment.

Also, we changed up the format of this one from the last and we'd really appreciate some feedback on what you think of it, so please let us know, especially if you're a patron who can let us know easily and simply in the discord (hint hint, join the patreon at http://patreon.com/praxicast )

This time we're joined by Phil McDuff to talk about his article in Novara detailing exactly that topic - how convenient!

CW - Suicide, Torture, Slavery, Border Abductions, The American Prison System

I'm not going to try and be funny about this one or anything considering the subject matter - Rob read the report about the Manchester Arena Attacks and we asked TF's/WTYP's/KJB's/NGNMs' November Kelly to discuss some of the contents of that report and the circumstances around the attack (plus some other news and CoC)

E328 - War Andor Peace (Part 2)

Wed, 19 Mar 2025 18:35:00 +0000

Okay, hear me out.

First off, this was re-recorded a couple weeks ago because i'm extremely good at backing up audio files from 2 years ago entirely in line with the professionalism this podcast is known for.

Secondly, there's some audio issues in this that I can't get rid of, no matter how much I try (remember when I said this was recorded 2 weeks ago?), sorry about that.

Point III: This isn't this weeks normal episode, that's still to come, and the rest of these will be additional free episodes just like originally promised.

Fourthly, we used my near 2 year old notes for this and if i'm being entirely honest I reckon it shows, but for the next one (yes, we're actually doing all of these and finishing it) I've got a revamped set of notes ready so it should be a bit slicker.

Anyway, enjoy the much awaited sequel to the running joke that you lot have been haunting me with for far too long.

Welcome to Britain, we've got more daft ideas from another academy headteacher who hates children, all our local councils are on the verge of bankruptcy, and our prime minister is keen to start world war three, but at least we can make life unbearably miserable for people half the world away. The sun never sets on our trail of destruction!

E275 - Little Chef on the Prairie

Fri, 19 Jul 2024 06:00:00 +0100

Once upon a worknight dreary, while I doomscrolled, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious wiki of Warhammer lore—
While I listened, podcast yapping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of Labour MPs rapping, rapping at my landlord's door.
“’Tis false hope,” I muttered, “tapping at my landlord's door—
Only this and nothing more.”

WE ARE GOING UP TO TWO PREMIUM EPISODES ON PATREON A MONTH, THIS MONTH! THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO BE A PATRON, IF EVER THERE WAS AT ALL.

E273 - A Labour of Loathe

Wed, 03 Jul 2024 23:49:21 +0100

On the eve of the election, we find ourselves once again asking the question "how did it end up like this" and immediately responding to ourselves with "liberals", this time through the lens of one of the most banal interviews ever conducted of a political heavyweight from Change UK, a party that you can definitely still vote for in the election after it's founding maybe 6 whole years ago. Also, we give our thoughts on why engaging with the entire process of the electoral system in TYOOL 2024 is pointless unless you want to maybe make a labour candidate sad, because it otherwise offers nothing else in the way of material betterment.

To do this, and look into the mind it was birthed from, we of course got Reel Politik's very own Jack to assist us. (you can check out Reel Politik here: https://www.patreon.com/reelpolitik)

E230 - Jim Davidson’s Big Broke Britain

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 06:00:00 +0000

It's a kind of two-for-one bargain-bin episode, but filled with the absolute worst the UK and its political classes have to offer; the journalist urge to make everything about Britain (no matter how deplorable that is), followed by a long interview with the distilled essence of centrism - sorry, the rational middle way. It's one of those blood pressure episodes.

The fates conspired to scupper this week's recording, so our crack team of paramilitary plasterers raided the vault to retrieve an ancient relic:

Unlock the full episode to hear us talk about CashApp - you've probably seen 10,000 ads for it on any of the things you watch on YouTube - and how its growth *allegedly* relies on a series of rap-based crimes and fraud. Also an update on Britain's Favourite Family that isn't the royals, finally putting a stop to burger paper littering, and Alan Sugar gets it in the ermine neck.

We've talked about enough Labour Party rebrands, so to shake things up we delved into the cutting edge world of Concept Conservatives in an effort to pin down the nature of the unfathomable, barely corporeal, shrieking entity which is this country's dismal future. Also we did comment or commentariat.

ANNOUNCEMENT: We're taking next week off because Episode 200 is literally the next episode somehow and that means we've earned a week off and we're so glad you agree. We'll be back on Thursday 11th May with a very special Episode 200!

PATREON: We bang the drum every week about this and we're so very thankful to everyone that's joined us on the discord through patreon so far, but we would love to have even more of you join us, so please consider subscribing at patreon.com/praxiscast for premium episodes which contain more of our terrible content, discord access so you can tell us why the content is terrible, and even terrible bonus clips that were too terrible to be part of the final cut of the episodes!

E198 - Thurrock Unaccountable Council

Thu, 20 Apr 2023 06:00:00 +0100

Possibly due to severe financial mismanagement and being bad at maths, this pod also has to run on a skeleton crew. We talk about the latest attempt to foist number-awareness on the British, but most of it is taken up with the truly spectacular investment strategies of Thurrock Council. Turns out: bankruptcy bad.

Episode 196 PREVIEW - Behrly Coherent ft. Sinan - Part Two

Usually Rob writes the preview blurbs, but due to a comedy of publishing errors it's been left to me to come up with something at 2 am the night before release. Honestly I'm not even sure people read the preview blurb - write in if you do - but, for the sake of giving it a good old try...

The whole crew is back together! After a delightfully whimsical tour of the never-neverlands that our tech overlords can't stop trying to cram us into, we turn back to Britain and our increasingly incoherent rage. Rob's read the new government anti-social behaviour strategy; turns out that being young, poor, or in a park will become even more of a crime.

E181 - This Episode Will Be Remembered - Pentiment ft. Josh Sawyer

Thu, 12 Jan 2023 08:42:31 +0000

Happy new year one and all! We're back in 2023 and rather than start with Britain we thought we'd ease into it and talk with Friend of the Pod Josh Sawyer, Studio Director at Obsidian Entertainment and Game Director and Narrative Director for the recently released game Pentiment. We talk about the inspiration for the game, the role of (bad) history and storytelling in videogames, and more!

Spoiler warning for the last third of the pod - You get a heads up.

Pentiment is a narrative adventure game set in 16th century Bavaria where you play as artist Andreas Maler, who investigates the murder of two of his friends over a number of years, with the whole game spanning a 25 year period. Get it here while it's hot, and also on your Xbox gamepass, Steam and other places.

Thu, 13 Oct 2022 08:00:00 +0100

After an even longer wait, in this fourth episode of Black Thoughts James dives into a discussion of the politics of language, and how political wars are waged on the left using politicised language - and genuinely good desires - for individual gain.

Content warning: this episode features mention of suicide and problematic language. In particular, ableist language is directly discussed.

This episode makes reference to the essay "Exiting the Vampire Castle" by the late Mark Fisher, first published in The North Star in 2013 and since republished on Open Democracy here: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/opendemocracyuk/exiting-vampire-castle/.

E156 - Pesto Elysium ft. Sinan Kose

Thu, 11 Aug 2022 06:00:00 +0100

Once again we dragged Sinan back to review some of the UK's finest literature; this time high-octane political thriller about tax rebates on dividends paid to pension funds. Yes, that's right: we've read Robert Peston's The Whistleblower, a story of a man so addicted to the scoops he's forced to drink champagne with lobbyists.

PraxisChat 2 - Barrister Strike with Hannah Webb

Mon, 18 Jul 2022 14:43:32 +0100

In our second Praxiscast interview we talk to Hannah Webb, practising criminal barrister and co-chair of the Haldane Society of Socialist Lawyers, about the ongoing strike by barristers in the criminal courts, the pressure and hideously low pay faced by (young) barristers, and what the decade-long cut to legal funding has done to your chances of getting a fair trial with a court staff that's had a good night's sleep for once ...

Please note that there will be no regular Thursday episode this week because recording on a Tuesday during max heat madness is not something we are prepared to do, nor something you'd want to listen to. So accept this instead.

Thu, 23 Jun 2022 07:00:00 +0100

On this episode of the Mick Lynch Academy of Public Relations Podcast, we bask in the tears of the many factions of crying melts, flustered journalists, and ever more worried societal betters, over the RMT strikes, and a loooooong list of other potential strikes coming to an industry near you! Not only that, but have you ever wondered why the buses are just about the worst kind of public transport experience you could possibly have? Rob tells us why, as we journey back to when time began: Thatcherism.

E146 - Retrial of the King ft. Jordan

Thu, 16 Jun 2022 06:00:00 +0100

After a brief catchup with the Most Exciting Man in UK Politics, we read a truly incredible tale of how the CIA came to hire and then deeply regret hiring the worst human being alive, and also how they're good at passwords. David couldn't handle the truth this week, so we brought in Friend of the Pod Jordan, from Comradio!

Everyone is (mostly) here! Swiftly sidestepping the flagshagging of the past weekend, we take a look at the state of people pretending novelty sized credit cards for the country are real, the half baked but still dangerous secretive court hearings around the Sarah Everard Vigil arrests, a fun new free*** to play game and our main topic of, what if we did the 2008 crash again but dumber and less people were getting rich over it?

We watched Jamie's Food Revolution, an absolutely terrible show where righteous saviour of the poor and hungry and relatable cockney geezer, James Trevor Oliver MBE OSI, travels to West Virginia in the good old US of A to tell everyone that letting your kid eat McNuggets is tantamount to negligent homicide.

E143 PREVIEW - Accidental Pacifism

Thu, 02 Jun 2022 04:05:35 +0100

We're all here! Rob dialled in from the US to make this episode happen, making this probably our most ambitious episode yet. I can still say that without worry because it's an incredibly low bar to clear and will probably remain as such.

Since Rob's been off having fun and other intolerable things like that, we give him a crash course in the discourse of beergate, before he counter attacks with the state of Army Recruitment (it's bad, which means it's good).

E142 - We’ve Got Tony Blair at Home

Sun, 29 May 2022 13:00:00 +0100

Rob's back so you're all invited to dive head-first into the empty concrete pool of Wes Streeting Thought, right after a detour through the absolute shambles that is "partygate" (not a gate) and a new tourist attraction in the North. Also we reinvent bin collection.

This is last week's episode, we just didn’t get it out then, but it’s here now! As we waited for Rob to return from his transatlantic journey the remainder of us visited the miseries of electrocops (volunteer wing), the extended meltdown of Jordan Peterson, the cursed soul of eternal Blairism, and the unhinged ramblings of the paper that the money is supposed to listen to. This week's actual episode will follow shortly!

Chasing desperately after Rob, we take a trip to USpol to scry the posting wars of the future, talk about the depressing subject of deportations to Rwanda, and cover some more energy market shenanigans, before moving on to the main topic...

Special guest Lilah (@leechwaifu), an organiser and member of renters union Acorn joined us to talk about landlords and the hell that is renting, only to be confronted with the hell that is an honest landlord that the papers have deemed fit to give advice to others. The content is exceptionally cursed this week, you have been warned.

Then, enjoy a trip back to two weeks ago, where the full cast is joined by Adam from We Don't Talk About The Weather (@WDTATW_Podcast) to discuss the mind of the Kwisatz Hackerach - Paul Mason, a man who has once again wrote a medium article to subtweet a guy he made up, just to show that he can.

From the end of the pandemic, to the beginning of a war, and the beginning of a war, and the beginning of a war (and the quiet walkbacks of these), we navigate via the green future of freeports towards a pathetic piece of tory leadership fantasising, and why you'd better get used to hearing more of it.

E119: Jack Ryan’s Amazon’s Rainbow Six presents Ubisoft’s Jim Halperts’ Ninth Echelon by Tom’s Clancy

Thu, 30 Dec 2021 12:08:31 +0000

The Cultural Committee convenes again, this time because Rob and James half remembered a series of books they read in their youth; a bad idea then and an even worse one now. It’s the Tom Clancy Extended and Unending Universe, a litany of bad books, crap games, awful movies, and worse understandings of reality.

Hello from the past! We recorded this episode a couple of weeks ago, mostly skipping over the news to bring you tales of financial chicanery from that most holy place, the Vatican City. Unfortunately, we get interrupted by a cursed idea which then turns out to be a real thing already, and go off on an extremely stupid tangent.

E112 - A Hat On Borrowed Time

Thu, 09 Dec 2021 12:00:00 +0000

This week, while the media is obsessed with some party they were (assumedly) unusually not invited to, we take a look at government policy - some in it's infancy, and some in process; there's both types of thinking - blue sky, and blood red seas. (It is a bit heavy in places, especially around the Nationality & Borders Bill, so be warned)

Not to worry though, it's not all heavy government policy, it's also light and baby brained liberalism too! The Guardian's brave new frontier of progressive alliance support gets a look in, and a man in a fedora has opinions about a specific age group.

E111 - Class and Punishment ft. WDTATW

Thu, 02 Dec 2021 16:59:47 +0000

We brought Adam and Huw back to talk about "neo-traditionalist" / hard schools where discipline, punishment, and being a little robot are the most appreciated qualities, and how that says a lot about society. Also your pension is getting into the casino, the bottom of the Med is littered with F35s, and the UK doesn't really need those medical labs, right?

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 08:27:19 +0100

Rob's lost his mind again, this time off the back of a small piece posted by one of our patrons about an armoured vehicle that hates its occupants. Join us, why don’t you, as we explore military procurement and more galaxy brained thinking from the same people who brought you the F35 and stupid carriers. Also some of us watched an interview with a top bloke, and there’s good news from Skynet: the first autonomous killdrones are ready to get up close and personal.

Episode 83 - Ask Not For Whom the Scot Pols

Fri, 04 Jun 2021 07:17:24 +0100

Despite our dire warnings, our last episode on ScotPol was well received, so once more join David, James, Jamie, and special guest Elijah for their evaluation of the 2021 Holyrood Election results. Has anything changed? Will the SNP and Scottish Greens team up? And what has become of Willie Rennie's hopes and dreams? We also break the first seal on the Forbidden Question, and talk about Scottish Independence.

Episode 82 - Chances with Wolves ft. Dan

Thu, 27 May 2021 08:39:34 +0100

Brand new Friend of the Pod Dan joins the pod to talk about the sorry state of treeplanting in the UK, a little rewilding, and how he's doing his own bit for nature. Plus we've got Home Office immigration raids that don't do anything, snitches, the bean counters take over covid aid, and the latest goings-on in Bitcoinland - this time it's a real trustworthy coin called Tether that's just fine. Don't worry about it.

Episode 78 - Trawling Through Misery ft. Dr Eleanor Janega

Thu, 06 May 2021 07:00:00 +0100

There is an election today (probably, depending on where you are and when you read this), and we will largely not be talking about it on this episode.

Instead, we're joined by the wonderful Dr. Eleanor Janega to NOT talk about Justified, but to talk about yet more Higher Education meddling by the tories to force you into STEM subjects, a death cult that enjoys chocolate, a cursed book which everyone except Rob hopes is never released, and the plight of communities around Britain's coasts which have been decimated by the destruction of the fishing industry.

Fittingly, we also wheel out AI Starmer, for a very frank conversation about his position.

We explore the critical question facing treatboys everywhere; what if the corporate behemoth you've invested all your fantasies in suddenly turns woke and takes the racist toys away? Well, you put on a big strop in the papers and we (and you!) get to read all about it. Also we don't even mention wallpaper or John Lewis once, we've declared victory in Iraq, and speculate on who's next after Boris.

Aarjan and Nikita from LEFT/OVER join the pod to discuss the chill response to an old guy dying, the British Gas fire and rehire, and the latest not-at-all-fash hirings from the Home Office. Also we explore the Crown Estate, why you can't pick mussels in Scotland, and the monarchy teams up with DC Comics - it's property all the way down!

Mon, 29 Mar 2021 08:00:00 +0100

We finally did it. By popular - and thoroughly misinformed - demand, we recorded an episode all about Scottish Politics in the run up to the 2021 Holyrood elections, and on the day that the ice lolly wielding veteran of Holyrood, Alex Salmond, declared he was setting up a new party so that he can be terrible in a whole new way.

If you don't know your scotpol, do not fear, as we'll hold your hand through the tedious labyrinth of pointless parties, bizarre photo ops, and piles of dead ideology, all under the watchful gaze of The One Question.

Fri, 05 Mar 2021 14:27:16 +0000

Do you like planes? Do you like ships? Do you like never amounting to your potential amid a raft of wonderful promises and a lot of effort being put in by others?

Then you'll love the Queen Elizabeth class carrier and the F-35, the boat that sinks in warm water and the plane that kills more of it's own pilots than any other demographic!

We take a look at the wild boondoggling that these projects have been endemic with and the total failure the whole thing has been, among some other little pieces of news, some food discourse (where we re-affirm our position as a pro chocolate orange podcast), and Kiethment or Kiethmentariat.

Also, Stream Alert! David & Rob will be on Sinan's stream on the day of release at 7pm at twitch.tv/SKTheCrusader to talk about Kieth and all things Labour, so join us in the chat!

We left the topic of this episode in your hands dear listeners, and proving that democracy doesn't work once again, you selected Star Trek, wherein we debate over what kind of utopia the Federation is, because it's definitely not communist, dissect some of the extremely immediately post 9/11 content that is still very much pervasive in the series, and admit that we all know what the holodeck is really for.

Episode 47 - Flat Cap on a Whip-It

Thu, 20 Aug 2020 14:30:37 +0100

It's a full tour of Britain (well, except Wales) as we open the door to ScotPol, discuss the delightful and varied (alleged) crimes of Tory MPs and Lords, report from the increasingly unhinged fronts of the terf wars, and end on a delightful note of Comment or Commentariat.

Also, the podcrew went and did a bunch of libel etc. during the recording so it took a bit to get this one out. See if you can spot where it occurred.

Episode 45 - Come Play, My Lord ft. Josh Sawyer

Tue, 21 Jul 2020 18:32:45 +0100

The PiP Cultural Committee is back in session to discuss vidja games, representations of colonialism and political conflict overall. We're very excited to be joined by Josh Sawyer, lead designer of such classics as Icewind Dale II, Fallout: New Vegas, and Pillars of Eternity. Most recently he was the narrative designer for Pillars of Eternity 2, set in a fantasy world where colonisation is part of the narrative. Who better to talk to as we discuss "why must there be politics in the shooty-shooty-stabby-stabby"?

Like the chat? Why not pick up Pillars of Eternity 2 and grapple with colonial representation yourself?

Episode 44 - Cancel the Pizza Party

Sat, 11 Jul 2020 12:44:20 +0100

You, the listener, are cancelled. You’re all cancelled. The Cultural Marxists are back after a brief technical failure to open your Epstein Brain, feel very bad for JK Rowling’s menshies, and take you to a small business tyrant for a 10-quid-off pizza dinner. It’s a cavalcade of positivity as we end with a heaping helping of Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 43 - Socialists vs. Space Marines

Sat, 20 Jun 2020 08:11:43 +0100

Both weebles and anglosphere political systems wobble, but they won’t fall down. In this episode, David, Jamie, James, and Seb talk about the police as space marines, and statues as the Inciting Incident. Then they speculate on the potential for uprisings in the US and the UK, and how far we’re into the cool zone. Also there’s space marines.

Mon, 15 Jun 2020 20:12:37 +0100

There’s way too much news and revolution going on at the moment, so we called in Hussein Kesvani (@Hkesvani) to help us out. Rowling’s TERF tirade, swimming statues, heroic traffic lights, and Very British Culture Wars. You want it, we got it! Also we discuss clipboards at sexparties, and finish with a delightful dessert of statue-only Comment or Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 41 - The Old World Is Dying

Mon, 08 Jun 2020 00:59:05 +0100

First thing to note is the time of recording on this episode was Wednesday 3rd June, so things have... escalated a little since then.

Rob, Natalie, Elijah and James (not that one, or that one, or even that one) talk about the US reactions to the murder by cop of George Floyd, why Britain isn't any more progressive in how it handles race, and why civil disobedience is a proven method of effectively forcing change.

Episode 40 - Martin Scorsese's Polar Express Cinematic Universe

Thu, 04 Jun 2020 18:55:02 +0100

We completely ruined the news episode we were trying to record simply by being ourselves. It was a shambles from start to finish and could not be saved on the editing table.

As reparation for that, here's the long awaited second part of our cultural series wherein we examine the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including how Tony Stark is a liberal hero and how the seeds of eco-fascist propaganda have been right there the whole time.

Episode 39 - Electoralism

Tue, 19 May 2020 22:41:15 +0100

In our first fully unplanned episode, James posits the question of electoralism - a viable tool for the left? David, Jamie and Seb try to answer this but as always it descends into... anarchy?

Episode 38 - The Bonfire of our Sanities

Sun, 10 May 2020 00:04:38 +0100

It’s back to the satanic news mill for our crew of beaten-down, isolated podcasters as they lifted their infected eyes up to the heavens and see the End Is Nigh. Doesn’t matter whether it’s the supposed end of ‘rona lockdown, the Forensic Haircut now leading Labour, or the gibbering madness of political sketch writing, the crew is losing sanity points by the bucket. Soon, they shall swim out to that brooding reef in the sea and dive down through black abysses to Cyclopean and many-columned Y’ha-nthlei and live with Michael Gove.

Also, Comment or Commentariat is back!

Episode 37 - Afterberner

Mon, 04 May 2020 15:58:51 +0100

In 2020, a crack podcasters unit was shadowbanned for the crime of supporting Bernie and Corbyn. These men promptly escaped from maximum security Twitter jail to the shitposting underground. In this episode, still wanted by the government, they discuss the failure of the Bernie movement to capture the Dem nomination and draw transatlantic comparisons to Labour, before it got a sweet haircut.

It’s the EU pod takeover you definitely didn’t vote for! To take your minds off the ‘rona, three dirty foreigners come together to close your pubs, supplant your royal family, and make you listen to an extended discussion about the Euro(zone). Elijah and Rob are joined by special guest star Merijn to discuss the origins and problems with the ‘common currency’, try to explain the Greek debt crisis, and how hardworking northern ants shouldn’t pay for lazy, corona-infected southern grasshoppers.

OUTRAGE at our schadenfreude over capitalist parasites losing their investment properties. BE AMAZED at our callous lack of preparedness and research.

Episode 30 - Title Redacted - Bloomberg NDA

Sat, 29 Feb 2020 12:59:46 +0000

It's time to gaze across the Atlantic again to the very extremely real country that is the USA, and bask in the complete failure of the melts in the Democrats to fight off an unelectable and divisive socialist in the arena of democracy.

Not only is it good for laughing at the meltdowns, but there are some good lessons to be had from the campaign, and we take a little look at what the Bernie Campaign has done differently from Labour during the Corbyn era that seems to have worked better.

Also, some Comment or Commentariat.

Mon, 17 Feb 2020 10:00:00 +0000

In this episode we unleash the dragon of chaos to celebrate the recovery of Jordan Peterson, discuss the rat problem infesting the former colonies, behold the new cabinet of bloodless monsters appointed by BoJo and discuss the utter scandal of Windrush and the deportations. It’s bleak, but solidarity and love forever, comrades!

We recorded this episode a few days before the Iowa Caucus, so if you'd like to travel back to a time before ratty pete's app blew up, this is the episode for you!

A Big Structural Episode (emphasis on Big) sees Elijah, James, Rob, and Jamie go over the entirety of the US democratic primary campaign until now, specially summarised for Limey Listeners who don’t have the chutzpah to follow New York Times writers on Twitter. From the esoterica behind the mystical “Eye-Oh-Wah Caucus” and the Democratic selection process, to a rundown of the current candidates and their respective hives of scum and villainy, to a Greatest Hits of the absolute clown-shoes campaigns some of these cretins are running, we’ve got it all.

Its our first cultural commentary episode, and it's Star Wars.

David (@SanitaryNaptime), James (@anarchonbury) & Jamie (@WizardCubes) try to piece together what the narrative is of the Skywalker Saga as a whole, both in good and bad faith, a wider discussion on the importance and power of narratives within society, and of course the tragedy of the Colombian Grebe.

Episode 25 - Segway to Davos

Sat, 25 Jan 2020 18:48:44 +0000

Four very professional podcasters waste your time for an hour and a half(ish) [Ed note:nearly two hours]. Rob (@CountRthe), Elijah (@KlezmerRouge), Ben, and Jamie (@WizardCubes) talk about the news, the Labour leadership contest, make discoveries in pronunciation, and depress themselves with the Davos conference. Includes the ever enraging Comment Or Commentariat and facts about vampires.

We’re back with season 2 of Podcasting is Praxis; it’ll be grittier, darker and probably all downhill from here - a perfect mirror for reality.

David (@SanitaryNaptime), Rob (@CountRthe), Jamie (@Wizardcubes), and James (@BrovineOfBored) talk Iran, discuss the Labour leadership election, and Rob loses his mind at Polly Toynbee’s middlebrow garbage. Also, we start scoring Comment or Commentariat to find out whomst among us is the greatest connoisseur of trash takes!

Elijah, James, Matt & Jamie take a look at some of the last things to come out of the winter election, and think back to some of the dumbest highlights of the whole long and painful time, and then the collective has a bit of a think about who, as individuals, we'll be voting for.

Episode 20 - Transforming Ignorance

Fri, 06 Dec 2019 07:00:00 +0000

Content Warning: TERFs, Transphobia

In this episode, Natalie, Matt and James run David through a few aspects of the challenges and barriers that society - and some of the worst in it - puts up for people who aren't cisgender. They also explain the type of help that's actually available, and how it's woefully incapable of operating at anything close to the necessary capacity.

One of the reasons we're keen to do these types of episodes - and there will be more down the line - is to confront our ignorance, listen to some people with a bit more knowledge, and engage with it. It's about trying to make ourselves more rounded people, and better allies to others. We hope that if you're in a similar position to David, you come out of this episode feeling more confident in your understanding of a subject you may know very little about: the struggles that trans people go through.

Also in a first for this podcast, we talk Scottish Pol- no wait, don't go! James gives us a good rundown of how they see transphobia taking hold within the Scottish political establishment across a multitude of parties, a topic they will expand upon in more detail on another episode...

Episode 19 - Jo Swinson's Gritty Reboot of the Tufty Club

Polls! Polls? Polls.

Rather than have a big obsessive panic about number go up, number go down, we take a look at what MRP actually means, and the reasons that polling is a bit pointless until the only poll that matters; the exit poll.

Also, we take a brief look back over the Climate Change debate, a fun jaunt into the CUKTIG Manifesto Pamphlet and enjoy the fightback against media bias through twitter antics that have forced Jo Swinson to carefully avoid denying allegations that she's a squirrel murderer (again, we live for this) (also, RIP Richard Miller)

Thu, 28 Nov 2019 16:00:00 +0000

We're on a roll!

In part one of our first ever two part episode, we cast our minds back to when Johnson and Swinson lived out their personal nightmares on live TV.* We also chat voter registration and the baffling state of the BBC turning full propagandist, before pivoting hard left towards the Labour Manifesto.

When we recorded this we originally intended to just run for the usual one episode length, but it turns out that when you give a load of socialists good policies to get out there, we don't shut up, so that's why you've got a two parter.

Join us for a look back at some of last week's highlights in election hell, including our takes on the first election debate, laughing at Jo Swinson trying to go full Welcome to City 17 as some sort of complaint, and a complete failure among us to grasp exactly how Lib Dem policy even exists.

Another week of news, another series of self-owns, including the Brexit Party collapsing in on itself, the Lib Dem's making sure they follow the lead of another protest vote party and doing the same, Johnson attempting to appear as if he didn't fall out of a spacecraft and Swinson fully embracing the death of humility.

In this episode, Michael, Seb, Chris and our guest Alicia talk about what's involved in campaigning, how to navigate the kinds of questions that come up on the doorstep, how to contribute if the doorstep isn't your thing, and just generally why it's a good thing to do!

Episode 9 - A Smooth Brain Bouncing Around a Frictionless Skull

Mon, 21 Oct 2019 20:14:42 +0100

We're back!

Sorry for the late release, but we're back with an almost full episode. We recorded this before Parliament's Super Saturday, so we've just chopped out the Brexit update, so instead, we've got some of the lesser reported parts of last week's news, as well as an article in which Toby Young starts with a fair point and ends with brain spiders, Comment or Commentariat, and a bunch of promises on our part that we really hope aren't hollow!

On this week:

Sam - too good for twitter

Episode 8 - What if the planet, but on fire?

Fri, 11 Oct 2019 01:21:30 +0100

We did it, we finally got some time and a break in the news to do a climate change episode! Hooray! Come join Natalie, Rob, Matty, James, and Dan for a wonderful adventure into the burning hellworld that is our planet.

As well as a look at how capitalism ruins everything it touches, there's a dip into climate activism - from the mass engagement of Gen Z with FridaysforFuture, to the mass engagement of Extinction Rebellion activists with the police - a raft of potential solutions to climate change including the idea of the Green New Deal, and in place of Comment or Commentariat, a game of Capitalist or Supervillian (but I repeat myself)

Episode 7 - Atomic Kitten Malthusian

Thu, 03 Oct 2019 22:59:08 +0100

To cap off Conference Season, it's unfortunately time to cover the Tories. Join us for a look at the absolutely baffling lack of new ideas, and the horrifying doubling down on some of the older stuff.

On this week's episode, Jon makes his first appearance alongside Alasdair, Jamie, Rob & David, not just for the conference, but for some coverage of the news (there's good stuff this week!), an article that combines bootlicking with being horny on main, and Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 6 - A Spectre is Haunting Progress

Fri, 27 Sep 2019 03:45:47 +0100

In this week's episode, Alasdair (@SA_Ballistari), David (@SanitaryNaptime), Ben (smart man who doesn't use twitter), Seb (@PCSocialism) and Xander (@xjmaw) tackle Tom Watson's narrowly avoiding being dissolved in acid, the aftermath of the Supreme Court ruling on the prorogation of parliament, the collapse of Thomas Cook a la every other mega conglomerated business like Carillion, Joris Bohnson's relationship with an American business woman that is bad, but not for the reason everyone is saying it is; and the big topic this week, Labour conference, with all the extremely good stuff that's been coming from The World Transformed fringe manifesto and the actual conference itself. Main highlights there are the Green New Deal (https://www.labourgnd.uk/) and all the actual policies that were announced by all our favourites from the Labour Party. We also follow up with another article that further sends Alasdair into the realm of the mad god, and another round of Comment or Commentariat, with some of our favourite friends of the show.

Episode 5 - The Swinter of Our Discontent

Sat, 21 Sep 2019 15:15:48 +0100

Rob and Elijah join a further expanded cast with Seb and Kirby on an unfortunate expedition into just what Lib Dem policy actually is, have a meltdown over a terrible article, and play another game of Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 4 - A Parcel of Prorogues

Fri, 13 Sep 2019 20:18:59 +0100

BONUS EP!

We delve into the proroguing of parliament, ponder an extremely brainspider infested article about the supremacy of Jo Swinson's Lib Dems and do some Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 3 - Judged On Your Record

Fri, 13 Sep 2019 00:56:48 +0100

Content Warning: DWP & Poverty experience

The group talk about the experiences of one of our own surviving a changing welfare system in the UK under the yoke of austerity and Tory rule.

Not going to lie to you, this one does get a bit heavy at points. We cover a long decline in standards of welfare, with a lot of first hand accounts from Fargle in his debut on the podcast. The ministers responsible, the aims of the system and the struggles present in it.

It wouldn't be a socialist podcast if we didn't put some sort of hopeful slant on it though, and we touch on a potential solution in the long term, and cover some individual coping techniques and support services available to anyone in need, including an aid document by the Something Awful UK Megathread's incredibly cool and good Ferrosol.

Also making their debut on the podcast is Natalie (we finally got a woman on, patriarchy rest in piss), and Rob, our very own unelected Brussels Bureaucrat!

Episode 2 - Mr BoJo's Wild Ride

Fri, 06 Sep 2019 03:25:03 +0100

After an eventful week in parliament, and the probable imminent death of the tories, we're back to bring you a round-up of the comedy of errors. Parliamentary procedure, terrible speeches, and unity in opposition all get a look-in, followed by an awful article written by our favourite jauntily-angled former tory, Rory Stewart - and of course, a trip to the hot take mines for another game of Comment or Commentariat.

Episode 1 - Eternal Brexit of the Smoothest Mind

Fri, 30 Aug 2019 21:34:44 +0100

In our opening episode, the content we want to do is held hostage by the news and we’re left with no choice but to talk about Brexit, a little of the fun that it’ll bring for us all, and the hyperthunk brains that have brought it to us.
