This week, Josh Boerman from The Worst of All Possible Worlds returns to the pod to catch us up on everything happening in America, as it decides to self immolate for no other reason but to own the libs. We talk about how Everything Is Computer, and what that actually means in practice, Elon Musk stealing tricks from Mr Beast to (try) and do political corruption, and we briefly touch on the leaked Signal chat that once again proves our thesis: that everything that happens in the world is a direct cause of posting.

Ed Campbell, Correspondent and Senior Political Producer at PoliticsJoe, joins us this week to talk about the morning routine and sigma grindset required to nearly win Britain’s favourite game show, The Chase.

This is an unlocked bonus episode, originally aired on the 8th of March, 2024. Check it out on our Patreon ! -------- We're joined by the writer and film critic Hannah Strong to talk about "Eighth Grade" the 2018 film debut from musician, comedian and Youtuber Bo Burnham. The film explores the final days of middle school for a young American girl, and her relationship to her family, her social circle as well as the alternative persona she has made for herself online. We discuss why this might be one of the few successful examples of how social media can be depicted on screen, how much of this derived from Burnham's own experiences on the platforms, and whether, in spite of its successes, it really does capture the lived experiences of young Americans.

Annie explains how conspiracy theories seamlessly infiltrated the online lives of parents, exploiting the vulnerability of caring for a newborn, at a time when state support and medical care for many parents continues to diminish. We also talk about the ways parenting ‘influencers’ have changed, and why they are much more open to embracing, and marketing conspiracy theories as a way to promote their content.

Nick and Ciarán from Corner Späti come on the show this week to talk about the recent elections in Germany, and the specific ways in which posting influenced its outcome. We talk about the rise of the far-right AfD and the ineffectiveness of liberal politics to counter it, and the surprise surge of the left-wing Die Linke. We also talk about rising authoritarianism in Germany and the ways in which historical memory is abused, resulting in an increased targeting of Muslim immigrants, as well as police being given extra powers to punitively punish protesters at Palestine rallies, and arrest people for posting online.

This is a preview of a bonus episode! Check it out on our Patreon, patreon.com/10kpostspodcast. This week, we discuss whether the recent changes in the US government- along with the formation of DOGE- is sufficient evidence to suggest that the thesis of this show, "Everything is Posting" has been vindicated, and what it means for the rest of the world that we are now ruled by the forum guys and gamers. We also look back on some of the moments that took us here, and ask why, despite posting driving so many world events, mainstream media outlets still can't seem to get a grasp of what posting actually is. ------ PALESTINE AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.

This week, we watch BEAST GAMES, the game show hosted by Mr Beast in which he imprisons thousands of ordinary Americans and pits them against each other in a series of mundane games, largely for his own amusement. We talk about the financing behind the Amazon Prime show, Mr Beast's struggle to become a household name, and why the the novelty and excess required to game the Youtube algorithm doesn't quite work on a streaming platform. We also chat about Mr Beast's weird proposal picture to Mrs Beast, and why all game shows need to incorporate some element of gunge to make it truly work. ------ PALESTINE AID LINKS You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below.
