TRASHFUTURE

For this month's first Britainology, we're joined by music journalist and genre aficionado Dan Hancox, the author of 'Inner City Pressure: the Story of Grime.' But we're not talking about Grime today (that'll come later!)—rather, we're talking about a genre close to Milo's heart, the Essex-born-and-raised '90s/'00s subgenre Garage. Which Nate has absolutely no point of reference for whatsoever, despite being the exact right age to have been a fan...if only he were British.

This week, Riley, Milo, and Alice join special guest (and beloved friend of the show) Paris Marx of the Tech Won’t Save Us podcast for a discussion about Apple Vision Pro. Yes, the ridiculous snowboarding goggles that let you see pop up ads everywhere, the next iteration of Google Glass (but worse, and weirder). Our message to you is: bully anyone wearing these things.
