Golf Cooperation Council feat. Séamus Malekafzali 30.06.2026 1j

We’ve got some serious issues: Iran is too real of a country to ignore, and Saudi Arabia is becoming a real country in that it suddenly can’t find $300m to fund the LIV Golf tournament in Louisiana. Because something happened regarding the thing that it uses to make all its money from? We also dig into Israel’s occupation of Lebanon as “means of thwarting a peace deal” and as default function in a state run by people who need a war happening to stay out of prison. But don’t worry, we keep it really optimistic. Get more from Séamus here! And also check out the Turbulence podcast here! Get more TF episodes each week by subscribing to our Patreon here!

(700) Days of Starmer 23.06.2026 1j

I can’t believe he’s gone… he had so many relaunches left in him. We reflect on the premiership of Keir Starmer and ponder what awaits this country under Burnham, before reading the poem that proves AI generated art is just as worthwhile as anything done by a human.

Dan Davies, friend of the show and author of The Unaccountability Machine: Why Big Systems Make Terrible Decisions—and How the World Lost Its Mind, joins us to discuss Burnhamism.

We’ve brought on our friend and long-suffering literary correspondent Nish Kumar to discuss Matthew Goodwin’s new book that he wrote using AI while cribbing a stupid meme from the Joe Rogan Experience: “suicidal empathy.” The hits are all there, but Goodwin can’t bring himself to go full Camp of the Saints, and instead just pads his word count with the help of computer and winds up writing white grievance Fanon instead.

We welcome Gareth back to the show to discuss something he recently discovered: a planned private city of a million people? in Cambridgeshire? Supposedly called Forest City One, and built entirely out of wood? Obviously this is never going to get built, but there are some... tendencies represented here.
