Getting your Nation Serviced feat. Zoe Gardner
The UK can't get enough of border forces. We want to fund them in our own country and in other countries, even when those countries want visa-free regional travel. We love making everyone a cop, and we're joined this week by Zoe Gardner (@ZoeJardiniere) from Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants (@JCWI_UK) to discuss this.
However, we also have a terrible startup to review, and a great (by which we mean insane) article about why National Service would be a good thing. It's bad, folks!

Writing from the future - can attest this is a classic and it is absolutely trash here.
Certified classic this un
Haven't you guys said the name of the startup place the studio is in?
This is the best Patreon episode I've ever heard! There were parts towards the end (when even Milo was becoming extremely exercised) where I had to remind myself to breathe. I think there's a case for releasing this episode to the UnTrash people early as it's true that we don't hear about this stuff at all, and the sooner we are forced to consider it the better. Also wonderfully powerful points from Nate about the psychological damage caused to young men by the nature of the military. Zoe Gardner is Fab and I hope she will be invited back again soon. I'm going to add it to my Saturday night overnight insomnia podcast binge and listen to it again ... Thank you ...
I saw a notification from TF saying "Getting your..." and I became terribly excited. However, I was appalled to see that it doesn't end with "...dick sucked dot com is up and running". I'm not angry, just disappointed. To that end, I shall spend at least the next 6 hours NOT listening to this episode in protest.
Love the idea of Fritzl as an influencer; talk about an early adopter
