Gaped Britain feat. Dan Boeckner

It's the free one!

This week, Riley, Milo, Hussein, and Alice join special guest Dan Boeckner (@DanBoeckner) of Wolf Parade, Operators, Arcade Fire, and the Bottlemen (@dabottlemen) podcast to discuss a terrifying app-based labour market violation from Canada, some interesting UK political developments, and another–yes, another–British centrist political movement full of veterans of all the other failed ones.

Ive become hyper sensitive to using the word 'humans' in my technology job thanks to this podcast but sadly its often the best way to describe what im trying to say. Not sure it needs to be in marketing copy tho.

“Who actually likes Piers Morgan?” Me and my roomate we’re discussing this the other day and we are Came to the same conclusion that we had not met a single Piers Morgan fan in real life.

The worst part of a fast food restaurant is having to interact with a human to make your fucking goblin mode order, I WANT the evil McDonald's computers. If I wanted to see a human i would go to somewhere that isn't a chain

Absolutely right about no-one liking Piers Morgan. Even the insane people I know who agree with absolutely everything he says are like "Oh yeah he's a slimy little prick, an absolute worm-man but you have to admit he tells it like it is"

I’m pretty sure even Jeremy Clarkson has said publicly, going back like 15 years, that he hates Piers Morgan. The top gear guys making fun of him is the only reason I knew who he was for a long time.

Tbh I'm wondering if after crushing people's wafer thin ability to hold the gov accountable (protest, voter ID etc.), they're just starting passing stuff like making it illegal to be anti-patriotic. If only to keep the game going.

I am in favour of welcoming Canadian occupation of the UK, if it means we get regular access to maple butter.

Excuse me it was HENRY (engine number 3) that was bricked up in the tunnel (and then was only let out when he agreed to work again - which kinda just brings us full circle).
