Ep. 4.0(c): Gully on the UK Snap Election (Pt1of3)

Our host Czar Nick Tweed talks with Distinguished Vice Czar for the Celtic Isles Gully Foyle about the upcoming UK snap election on June 8. As the UK deals with the fall out from their referendum on leaving the European Union, Theresa May appears to be running a secretive and entitled campaign with as little interaction with the public as possible. Despite this, she is the heavy favorite to win an increased majority and plunge the nation into an unplanned economy where the main focus of the government will be protecting the expectations of property owners.

Part one of a three-part interview.

Ep. 4.0(d): Gully on the UK Snap Election (Pt2of3)

Ep. 5.0(a): Retromike interviews Jimmie on Automation, Technology, and Job Losses

Host Retromike interviews jimmie on the impact of automation and technology on job losses, particularly in the manufacturing industry. This includes the tales of jimmie nearly throwing his cell phone in a phone argument with automated customer service and Mike's bizarre experience with a robot concierge. We also mock low energy loser Ann Wagner and sprinkle in a bit of Missouri politics, and we also briefly discuss why automated riot control may not be such a good idea. Also in the spirit of social justice warrior inclusion, we have our first junk poll that surveys robots on their approval of working class voters!

Czar Nick Tweed hosts the return of Averroes, AFR's Distinguished Vice Czar for Political Economy (Healthcare). This wide ranging, over-hour long tape constitutes Pts I-II of the three-part Interview.

Pt I: In this segment Czar Nick begins to debrief Averroes on the GOP health care plan/Better Care Reconciliation Act, but derails the conversation multiple times with rants on topics ranging from the detrimental effects of excessive rationalization of health care for the hospital patient to the "failed" treatment industry. DVC Averroes, being polite and humble, goes along with Czar Nick's detours.

Fear not: we promise, in Part II Nick better restrains himself and allows DVC Averroes to go deeper into the bill.

Pt II: For the most 'wonky' part of the episode, go to 35:30. DVC Averroes is given the chance to complete most of the briefing he prepared for AFR on the Better Care Reconciliation Act.

The coming Pt III will feature a discussion about how the Democrats have no coherent position on healthcare besides opposing the GOP, and how that may play out in the years to come.

Ep. 6.0(c): A Conversation Between Two Berniecrats on a Sunny Day (Averroes, Pt. III)
