Tour de Moon (100% Real)

It's the free one!

It’s the True Chaos Configuration of Milo, Hussein, and Alice, and we’re discussing the Festival of Brexit–a bizarre idea that seems to be at least competently executed, much to our surprise. However, it includes a techno festival called Tour de Moon with an intensely 2000s website that has to be seen to be believed. We also talk about sanctioning Abramovich, and much more.

The Russian soldier who just finished downloading Elden Ring before being sent to Ukraine is the most dangerous one, because he’s the only one with anything to live for.

Abramovich doesn’t really have any links to Putin nowadays but he does fund illegal settlements in the West Bank so fuck him lol

3:00 I don't remember "victims of communism" including people who died by accident in communist countries, but the Black Book of Communism did include anybody who died in a war against communism, including all the Goddamn Nazis in the Great Patriotic War.

I'm a Nottingham Forest fan and our owner is an actual 1970s James Bond villain. Greek shipping magnate, also owns Olympiakos, and a few years ago was being investigated for transporting huge amounts of heroin across the globe. Seem to remember some people went missing. Obviously awful but also...a proper Chad

That New Republic article about “The Ghost Ship” he had a hand in was genuinely chilling, an actual psycho

Cannot stress enough how much my life was taken over by the fucked vibes of the cursed Olympic mascots, see the one called wenlock was named after the tiny fucking village my school was in, and OH BOY did my school have a fucking god complex about its tenuous connection to the Olympics

my headcanon is that the 'Moon' is because someone on the planning committee was really into r/wsb and figured that brexit britain to the moon was a relatable joke

i spent the whole month wondering what would happen between Riley and Alice since from a microscopic perspective they seemed to have radically, irreconcillable position differences on ukraine (respectively, Radio War Nerdian realist tankie-ism vs. radical neo-neo-con liberal nato-ism) that I imagined some actual podcast fracture might have to be hashed out or else completely papered over, but from what ive seen, Alice naturally has a comparable position to Riley's except that she's three percent more hostile towards russia while Riley's really salient tankie-ism is really a micro-local issue regarding canadian politics that does not necessarily have to yield to realities of european Great Game politics on the ground in eastern europe. So in that way there is no intra-pod conflict Still funny to imagine that they decided for this episode to tie up Riley in their basement for the Crime of supporting the Vagner Group

On another podcast (not in the TF family, but hosts have appeared on TF) they just didn't talk about Hong Kong because of line differences. We believe in our podcast professionals.
