2024 Trashfuture Q&A, Part 2
The Q&A continues! And we'll have a regular bonus episode out this week as well.
You asked us questions and we answered. Hussein is out on parental leave, but we convened the rest of the cast (Riley, Milo, Nate, and November) to respond as best as possible. However, it went so long that we decided to make it into two episodes. Thanks so much for being a TF patron!

Said it before I'll say it again, come to Adelaide you dogs, I'll have you at my wine bar
Thanks to November for transing my gender further with the painting of Lady Agnew 🫡🥹
Do the show on a boat in the river between Detroit and Windsor so it's in international waters or some shit. Like a casino boat on the Mississippi
Excuse me, Riley, I was a picky eater because I grew up in Australia, and even compared to the meagre Aussie Anglo restaurants & cuisines of the 80s, my parents were absolutely sub-par cooks. Total shite. So many rubbery steaks and lamb so overcooked it's like eating hay. What else is a child with taste to do, I ask you, fancyboi.
this is improbable but an Iowa City show would be a banger, we love weird humor, collectivism, being trans, and hating one specific landlord. Also the city is 50% bars and everyone you meet will have an extremely strong opinion on which ones are good, which can be amusing
I keep wondering to myself what a Byron sexual pride flag would look like
Mister Beast of Gévaudan
love the indy slander <3 im moving to chicago in may so i can finally be in a real place
come to minneapolis sweeties (ideally during the nicest four-ish months of the year)
come to Pittsburgh, its a nice place
If you guys come to Baltimore MD I swear I will grass roots create a fan base here large enough to warrant a show.
Oxford Mississippi would be a funny place to do a show strictly for the bit.

the allegory of the picky eater was so good that i had to force myself offline to read infinite jest for 2hrs
+1 vote for Chicago show.
Working in paediatrics has made me want a butlerian jihad more than ever.
Please do a show in Seattle!!! Would make my year
agree with nate, taking private music classes as an adult is goated and based
I'm a native buffalonian, please god do not make me go to Niagara Falls
The PNW is the most England part of America (wet, socially bizarre). Also please come here.
A "BYRONIC COMMANDO" one might say
TF PNW tour 2025 I'm there
please please please please do a show in whittier i am b e g g i n g you it isnt all one building anymore but no one goes there and i want to visit it and take the train down there aaaa
November confirms what we've all always known. Podcasting, and listening to podcasts, is harm reduction
In Riley’s defence, those card readers are very easy to break because they’re stuffed full of anti-tamper measures that will kick off if you so much as breathe on them funny. I used to work for a company that made Point-of-Sale systems and there was a huge box in the back of the lock-up filled with broken card readers
Windsor mentioned, best episode ever. Come here and I can promise you 2 people would show up to the show.
Just went to Whittier Alaska in September!
rolling penny mentioned i used to work for a bakery that supplied them and owner is notorious for not paying his suppliers invoices lol
Come to seattle 💕 let’s see big Lenin and play big buck Hunter
Here in Sacramento, I'd be really interested to see what the listener map is like in different parts of California.
Russia and Indiana shaking hands across the ocean when arresting a guy for looking gay.
Seconded for a Nashville show for purely selfish reasons
Glad to hear assmilk.mov is finally getting some recognition around here
This is made three times funnier by the Patreon app interpreting the .mov as the TLD of a website
Australia is like the only place that, on average, knows how to make coffee correctly
Isn't it Byronic?
Ironically Seattle is probably most suited to a TF live show, with the whole Seattle Freeze thing (it's a real thing!). It lines up with British humor a bit >too< well.
Undx ADHD is indeed, a great way to not graduate from higher ed!
I don’t want to go to Columbus, Indiana to see y’all but I will if I have to
Seattle mentioned!!!
On the Labour ‘19 loss question - I think Johnson’s “levelling up” promise was the first time Tories had campaigned against austerity, and so the election wasn’t about austerity and cuts, and therefore it was about Brexit. May tried to make the ‘17 election about Brexit but thought that meant she could expand cuts, and people cared more about cuts and didn’t coalesce around her. Boris did the opposite and enough voters did coalesce around him because of it.
NGL, never got the appeal of Social Media. Only ever use it to keep tabs on bands/acts that I follow, so in that respect I'm not mourning the slow death of Twitter.
Speaking as someone who has never used it or its clones, Twitter was particularly awful for the world, I think, because of the combination of its appeal to elites and its incredibly eerie ability to manufacture a feeling of ersatz, insular 'community', which seems to turn a lot of people into complete freaks. It created this whole class of media and political people who were totally trapped in this bizarre mirror world where every utterance on an ultimately quite unpopular website matters, so when @pissempress2381 posts pig poop balls dot jpeg at Alastair Campbell it's somehow a 'threat to democracy', or when a celebrity posts an epic own of Donald Trump it's SURELY the end of the bad orange man. I find it incredibly surreal in a way that is really difficult to articulate to people who are that online? And now we live with the consequences; a Redditor runs the US government, and the NHS bows only to the insane whims of a certain mediocre castle-dwelling author. It's grim!
