AI won't end the world...but it could fuel the far right. Cory Doctorow explained just how fragile the AI bubble really is, and why its collapse could have consequences far beyond Silicon Valley. And if that bubble bursts, who will pay the price?
Protect Our Women' until those women disagree... Reform's party conference saw disturbing scenes of physical and verbal assualt towards activists, while party leaders appeared to back their members. Nish and Coco discuss the rise in political violence surrounding the group...
Nothing says "fight the system" like joining it.... Nish loses it at Tom Watson and his contradictory politics: from critic of the establishment, to working alongside them.
Call them career moves, call them what you like, but the hypocrisy is certainly doing laps.
After austerity, Brexit, Covid and a Liz Truss lettuce, Nish asks how much responsibility the Conservatives bear for making people want out of the Union. Will Hayward explains the rather crappy situation...
What is 'end times fascism' and why is it the most dangerous story ever told? We're joined by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor to unpack the unholy alliance peddling this narrative, and to ask how we can stay grounded. Spoiler: the answer might be gay porn and soup... listen now!
Do we think any of the Red Pill Podcasters have actually seen the Matrix? Jury is out. 📞💊🐰 And if they're Agent Smith, are Coco and Nish our Neo and Morpheus?

Just going to leave this here... some 'best bits' from our conversation with anti-corruption expert Robert Barrington. Ring any bells?
Transparency International wrote to the Grenfell Inquiry urging them to include corruption in their terms of reference. So why wasn't this covered by the investigation?

As political standards slip and voters become increasingly willing to back leaders they know are corrupt, Britain could be staring down the barrel of a very familiar problem.
But just how far down are we?
Watch the full converstion out now.
This week we spoke to Robert Barrington about the state of our ‘Corrupted Kingdom’. Why are we scared to use the ‘C’ word, and how can we make sure we don’t follow in the footsteps of our friends across the Atlantic? Our government isn’t out and out corrupt…yet.

Listen to Natasha Devon, author of The Nuance Drought, on @podsavetheuk with @mrcodydahler and @cocobyname.
This is an insightful conversation about critical perspectives, false binaries, and burning everything down...

In a world of AI slop and fake news, are we surprised that Count Binface...isn't...actually a bin? For Coco, the illusion has well and truly gone... Join her and Cody muddling through the latest madness in this week's episode, out now.
Nish thinks we're missing who's really being radicalised by social media - forget under-16s, it's Gen X... do you agree?
All this and more in our special episode tomorrow full of bloopers and bonus bits!
As we wait to see where Burnham's government stands on some key issues, like trans rights and the genocide in Gaza, we wanted to take a look back at some of our previous guests and what they've had to say. The common theme seems to be strict stances, but blurred lines...
Why are nationalist movements across the world wearing MAGA hats? And is private equity actually good for society? (Spoiler: doesn't look like it x) We've learned a lot from our guests about the way the world works: here are just a few moments that stuck out to us...
