To mark out the end of 2025, and usher in the new year, we’re joined by our friends Alex Ptak and Jeremy Kalpowitz from The Quorators podcast.

We talk about some of the memorable moments of being online, including the last Bored Ape owner, Bryan Johnson’s endless erection experiments on his son, and Elon Musk’s Grok constantly declaring itself a fascist whenever it’s programmed to remind people how cool Elon is.

We also talk about the dominance of AI generated slop, how it’s influenced global politics at the highest level, and what it means when the most powerful people in the world constantly believe that a large woman is breaking glass bridges with a boulder.

For our annual Holiday episode, we roll in the big TV, sit back, and watch as a magic Santa causes several terror attacks across international waters, in order to unite the Jonas Brothers, as they head home for Christmas. We talk about the stranger moments that occur in the film, the mystery of the “Bonus Jonas” brother, whether the Jonas Brothers put out a Christmas movie as a means to address post-divorce allegations.

This week, writer and journalist Imogen West-Knights comes on the pod to talk about shrimp farming, the joys of looking after small, low-maintenance sea creatures, and what it’s taught her about caregiving. We talk about the slightly shady, online-based Shrimp economy, the community of shrimp owners, centred around the subreddit r/shrimptank, and how looking after shrimp has affected her real-life relationships.

Jacob returns to the show this week to talk about his new book, GILDED RAGE: Elon Musk and the Radicalisation of Silicon Valley.

Jacob explains how the post-2008 economic environment allowed the tech industry to amass an enormous amount of wealth and political power, using access to cheap credit and government contracts to embed themselves into democratic institutions. He then explains how the ascendance of culture wars, addictions to posting online and deep seeded resentment led to the formation of a violent, reactionary politics that now dominates much of the Western world, and could threaten the very concept of democracy.

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.

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.
