The Trashfuture Podcast Ltd FY24 Pension Allocation Call
Riley, November, and Hussein review some of TF Ltd’s strategic investments in the Humane Pin and the Apple Vision Pro, before moving on to look at the replacement of more humans in creative roles with ChatGPT in the UK entertainment industry, the desire of UK armed police officers to be treated like their American counterparts, and finally a reading on the inner life of Masayoshi Son… as we of course do at every pension fund allocation meeting.

Genuinely a bit too excited to hear of another Skies of Arcadia fan. Incredibly charming game.
Feels a bit weird to mention Corb Lund singing "i wanna be in the cavalry" without mentioning that the song is about ending up starving to death after eating your own horse.
Well, the reprise is at least. The first performance is super upbeat, surely nothing bad will happen!
My house is also 1/3 Napoleonic Empire in the form of the Bee kitch my wife loves
the fun thing that wasn't mentioned in the Labour goes to North Carolina kerfuffle is that the Labour staffer who posted the LinkedIn notice is Sofia Patel, Head of Operations, last seen fighting and losing a council by-election in what had been an extremely safe Labour seat in east London. https://www.onlondon.co.uk/newham-two-by-elections-one-dent-in-labours-dominance/
It's always nice when the show returns to its roots (in this case, Mr. Masayoshi Son). Perhaps a certain Australian money farmer can come back for a cameo appearance soon?
Britain having the same conversations about policing that America has had for the past fifty years
Never thought I’d hear a Corb Lund reference on TF and yet here we are
Riley really does have strong parasocial relationship with Masayoshi San
I’m really tired of hearing about the US election on this show. I feel like I’m pretty disconnected from the actual state of the race as an online leftist in the States, I don’t want to hear extremely online British leftists opine on it.
incredible! the TV director AI from Idiocracy has approved Ow! My Balls! for another season
Thank you for mentioning the Spy Cops stuff in this context, every time I bring it up with a friend or whoever they've either never heard of it or simply forgot it amongst the billion other bits of UK minutiae news bollocks
The true crime podcast Hussein described sounds like the exact same thing as My Favorite Murder
it's so upsetting that the state broaster is genuinely doing the same kind of low effort meta-game slop than patreon opportunistic grifters, jesus
Hoy shit Corb Lund on TF. My worlds collided.
Shout out to WGGB who’ve been calling ITV on this shit long time
“they needed a fourth arrow: an actual arrow” killed me 😭😭
Coppernation street
I think the comissioning editor AI should make that doctor who episode about "the Weakest Link and Big Brother but they kill you" real
Writing to the pension fund for clarification on whether "hyperbaric time chamber" is a typo in the minutes or does Riley not know what the hyperbolic time chamber is?
Masayoshi Son: you'll have to forgive the odd mix of styles but I refuse to go entirely NapoleoneeEeeEeEese
The military has stricter rules of engagement than cops, they'd never go for it
i have in fact seen a dick in a mousetrap. good times, good times.
ugh, so sorry to hear about the creeping americanization of british policing. and 40:30 🎯
Tell Trashfuture "Alberta Says Hello"
i knew i would find another albertan in the comments after the corb lund reference 😤
@postoctobrist
Reverse bomb disposal robot is an incredible bit
I don’t know if it was a farmer but they stumbled upon possibly up to 20 million tons of lithium in Arkansas last week
Bible on the dash is a fun corb Lund song
Riley was spittin
november's comparison of how AI has ended up to inventing the bomb squad robot to be on the OTHER side of the controller is so incredible lol
I saw an actual Neom branded product at Gatwick recently and no one from Trashfuture was there to join me in pointing and shouting. To my knowledge. But I can now share that Neom has manifested as a dinky little hardshell backpack.
Multiple American soldiers who served in the occupying forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, who went on to careers in American law enforcement have quit those careers in disgust, and one off the reasons they usually cite is the complete lack of accountability of police officers who do stupid shit, and the complete lack of any willingness to prosecuteoffciers who commit crimes up to and including murder in even the most egregious cases. These former soldiers, who were kicking down doors in Fallujah and shooting kids suspected of wearing suicde vests consider American police to be loose cannons with zero checks and balances.
CORB LUND MENTIONED
The description of him almost killed me! 🤣
Skies of Arcadia mentioned
Riley's pop culture references are always so fascinating.
the peoples joker mentioned!
The title of this gave me PTSD flashbacks to note taking during investment committee meetings
Also from experience, Sharia equity funds are very difficult to manage, very high tracking error, would not recommend
I feel confident without dialing into the conference call that you all are investigating in the proposed US strategic cryptocurrency reserve
