Episode 50: Bullshit Jobs
An anthropologist proffers a theory about fake jobs, and two professional podcasters weigh in.
hello Chris itβs me Peter. same issue. i am relegated to humiliation on the podcast accounts.
We did this
Bari to CBS: ok, fine we'll cut him loose, but only if we can wait for @notalawyer.bsky.social to say on @ifbookspod.bsky.social that we aren't.
This month's bonus episode is about how "technically it's ephebophilia" went mainstream
that book is so bad that @ifbookspod.bsky.social made 2 episodes about it
@ifbookspod.bsky.social was right - not just one book, but one grift
His arms donβt sound like this on his podcast.
If you need a good example of βsampling on the dependent variableβ for your stats class, look no further.
Iβve always thought Iβm not smart enough to write a best-selling book, but after a couple years listening to @ifbookspod.bsky.social I realized the truth is that Iβm not dumb enough
clip of me talking at length about watches being played at my neurodivergence trial
Episode 49: The Millionaire Next Door
In 1996, two marketing professors revealed the characteristics of America's new elite class: They buy the right kind of watch, marry the right kind of wife and were born the right kind of white.
LOVE how many people are getting introduced to @michaelhobbes.bsky.social for the first time via this @volts.wtf episode.
Next: a small army of energy nerds get radicalised (complimentary) by Maintenance Phase & @ifbookspod.bsky.social. Maybe even make the jump to @fivefourpod.bsky.social...
OMG David, this is so relevant to my interests. I regularly listen to both Volts.wtf and @ifbookspod.bsky.social . Downloaded.
This month's bonus episode is about Olivia Nuzzi: her rise to the top of political media, her FaceTime sex with RFK Jr., and her awful new book.
This was simultaneously hilarious and damning examination of the shoddiness of Isaacsonβs work. Itβs something we came across multiple times in reporting our own book and factchecking it against his.
From "Democrats should abandon trans rights" to "I want to have sex with a computer." Wake up, honey, it's the worst takes of the year.
Requested a correction from @princetonupress.bsky.social. Let's see what happens.
it will but the teaser will be 96% of it
(the actual worst take of the year was Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics The Right Way but we already recorded a whole episode about that)
My favorite actress is not human
the left's new moralism will backfire
Just recorded our annual Worst Takes of the Year episode!
Episode 48: Elon Musk, Part 2
Over the course of several years, the richest man in the world lost his mind. His biographer didnβt seem to notice.
Part 2 tomorrow
weβre about to record our worst takes of the year episode. if you have a nominee for the absolute worst pundit take of the year, let us know!
Episode 47: Elon Musk
Walter Isaacsonβs definitive biography poses the question: is it ok to be a pathetic, cruel, lying reactionary if it kind of helps you build cars?
Elon Musk By Walter Isaacson
Tomorrow!
