700 Miles an Hour Into Your Ass feat. Justin Roczniak
For this week's bonus, Justin Roczniak of the Well There's Your Problem podcast joins the assembled cast of Riley, Milo, Hussein, and Alice to discuss the formal and total shuttering of HyperLoop. Because it was never a real thing, but it sure did make a lot of annoying people and related billionaires claim we didn't need high-speed rail!
(Editor's note: there were some serious issues with the audio files which were assembled into this episode, so if it sounds a little funny... that's why)

Not the first time Butlerian Jihad has come up re: AI.
consider the following: XLBD/LS (xl bully dom/little sub)
What a turnaround at the end lol
It's time to lock away the old net like it's cyberpunk
John taliban sequel?
During peak covid I saw a guy in a puppy play mask walking through town. Absolute king shit. But why would you drink a pint of beer through a straw? Get a nice tiki or mixed drink, so much better through a straw.
We are building the underground bully xl atmospheric rwilroad
nono you misunderstood the plasma powered vaccuum train, they strap a blood boy to the front like fury road
Anyway when will Mark Ames start the new magazine for expat dog fanciers, The eXile Bully?
Firstly, love the account name. Secondary, dog ban panics are frequently racially coded. Thirdly, the focus on breeds has a strong wiff of Social Darwinism. Fourthly, but can anything about dogs not be eugenics? My understanding is that all existing breeds are only a couple of centuries old. And that they were all deliberately bread. That every dog is a product of eugenics?
The only non-eugenic dog breed is the feral chihuahua. They’re not eugenic because they are the way they are because of their own sexual preferences (and survival abilities), not the whims of humans.
Very disappointed that there are 1.5 hosts of the show familiar with the rich, original lore of Warhammer 40K and not one of them reached for a lazy comparison to the orks when vibes-based train travel came up. LNER even paint their trains red, presumably to make them go faster.
I would like to know more about ork public transit.
I would totally support AM radio Trashfuture.
The Bully XLs will create a more equitable society in the Austin Hyperloop
fun to guess when you recorded this based on the extremely funny tunnel news from this week *not* covered here
There is in fact a parody Russian Harry Potter knock off called Tanya Grotter that can't be published in English because jkr c&d'ed it

If I recall correctly, the money for California High Speed Rail got there in the first place through a different series of baldfaced lies. Specifically, there had been funding for a rail link from Chicago to Minneapolis through Madison, and Scott Walker got elected by promising to take that money and put it into the roads. (The federal funding bill specifically forbid this and the money went to Cali). Nonetheless, the good people of Wisconsin struck a blow against their three most hated enemies: Illinois, Minnesota, and especially Madison
Nay Liam :(
To autistically miss the point of the Paul Walker jokes the main reason the crash happened was the fact the car was on 10 year old tyres. Even if they don't wear very much tyres do age out and get too hard which is probably what caused the crash. So if you buy a car with old tyres, put new ones on asap so you don't die in a fireball like Paul Walker.

Brogan BamBrogan? Wasn't he the guy who recorded "Drinking in L.A." in 1997?
patreon cut out my feed at "Aaron Swartz was forced to suicide by --". coincidence?? i think NOT
they got his ass for inventing Reddit [but jokes aside yeah it's so tragic]
I'd kill for more John Taliban
The anticipatory pause Riley leaves after 'DP World'...🤌
LOL. This is what ChatGPT came up with. "Precision Steering: The Rozniak Touch Justin Rozniak, a maestro of automotive enthusiasm, would appreciate the 911's steering precision." "the 911 is more than just a sports car – it's a symphony of speed and agility, especially when it comes to conquering corners with Justin Rozniak-like finesse."
I swear I've heard Justin say, "a symphony of speed and agility," before
Alice from WTYP did come but not Alice from trashfuture
P. G. House of Wode
We have a segment on this podcast, it's called : Audio Quality third. * shake hands with [incomprehensible noise] *
speaking of right of way for rail, I was taking a peek at the proposed map for the Windsor-Quebec (politically enhanced Montreal-Toronto route but w/ever) High Frequency Rail project and the disused/upgradeable path they put forward looks like a horrorshow, like passing in the middle of villages and in cuts in people's backyards, just seems like a way to make sure there's as much of a local opposition as possible. Someone should look into that, I just find it odd like there's the French model where you find a bunch of farmers and pay them off to do land swaps and acqusition to build in greenfield and use heavy earthworks to do the rest, the German model where you heavily upgrade existing tracks to reach higher speed, and then the Canadian approach which is like ... heeyyyy you know that dirtbike track behind your house? wellllll it was an industrial rail spur 75 years ago and we have the land title here so! we're going to put down a here high speed electrified double track railroad and we're *sure* you won't mind

Serious problems with the audio on a podcast with 2/3ds of WTYP? Not possible
We must imagine the producer happy
The good 2/3 of WTYP reminding me of how great that first episode was.
Yay Liam! Non-negotiable. Also Yay Devon!
Welcome to There's Your Trashfuture. It's a podcast about shit tech. Without slides.
There are slides; we’re just not allowed to see them.
I love that Roz laughs at every single one of his jokes
aw, come on. I think that little chuckle after he reads a fact is just the sound of disappointment and exasperation. He really gets going with the gallows laugh towards the end
I didn't read the episode title before I started playing the ep so I got jumpscared by Roz lmao
Alice inventing “Scotland Bully: XL Drift” is worth this month’s fee alone
you're telling me that this episode of 66% of WTYP was a production disaster and has bad audio??
50% ( Devon is a cool and valued member of Wtyppod too!.)
oh HELL yeah
