We open with a sobering follow-up: the future is less about AI toast (though Red Dwarf predicted it) and more about a soul-stripping "infrastructure of meaningless" after an AWS outage proved how fragile the internet is. Corporate overlords, like Elon Musk, are taking note: he finally addressed Starlink's use by Asian scam syndicates, but his attention is mostly on superintelligence, which Wozniak, Prince Harry, and 800 others want banned. Meanwhile, Meta, despite pouring $27 billion into data centers, suddenly cut 600 AI jobs, and Amazon is preparing to automate a half-million warehouse positions, offering drivers AR spy glasses and suggesting a new "Help Me Decide" AI tool to automate the exhausting micro-decision of which air fryer to buy. This dystopian fever dream peaked when Suzanne Somers' widower revealed he built a full-on robotic AI twin of the late actress. Predictably, Tesla stock tumbled, and the crypto grift continued with the pardoning of Binance founder Zhao, leaving SBF to ponder his failed check-bounce in jail.Speaking of soul-crushing, Disney's latest nostalgia raid, Tron: Ares, tanked harder than anticipated, proving not every Gen-X intellectual property is a worthy cash cow. But fear not, there's still great TV to be had: we recommend the clever dramas Slow Horses and The Diplomat Season 3, the high-stakes culinary nightmare Knives Edge: Chasing Michelin Stars, and the surprisingly excellent Gen V (which you must watch before the next season of The Boys). We also got our fix with the Pluribus trailer, Bullet Train, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, and the deliciously low-stakes reality shows Come Dine With Me, Hotel Costiera, and The Celebrity Traitors UK/Canada. Sadly, we must mourn the end of Food Network's The Kitchen. Yet, no matter how good the show, you still have to deal with Ticketmaster, which is still lying about "fighting bots" while cornering the secondary market.In the world of Apps & Doodads, OpenAI dropped its "Anti-Web" browser, ChatGPT Atlas (a data mule in disguise), and a new app now fakes your vacation photos (perfect for burned-out users). X is poised to sell "rare" usernames for millions (with a terrible subscription catch), while some clever hacker figured out a $60 mod to disable the privacy light on Meta's Ray-Ban spy glasses. Fellow podcast host Dave Bittner joined us to agree that the new Hall of Presidents format is better without the political posturing and confirmed the joy of old-school, purple-ink-smelling Spirit Duplicators (and we checked out a Star Wars fan film trailer for the AT THE LIBRARY section). Don't forget your Tilly Hat! Finally, R.I.P. Soft Cell's musical force Dave Ball, aged 66; the hits still hit.Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

"Aberdeen Calling!"   On 10 October 1923, the BBC opened its seventh station: 2BD Aberdeen.    Its station director R.E. Jeffrey was fresh from the success of Rob Roy - a drama he'd produced and starred in - and in later years he'd head up BBC drama, with contributions arguably including radio's first sci-fi and first sitcom (not at the same time - Red Dwarf was a while away yet).   Our experts include author Gordon Bathgate (whose book Aberdeen Calling is recommended - link below)... academic Dr Aleksandar Kocic of Edinburgh Napier University on why the BBC doesn't really do local radio in Scotland... plus notes from Prof Tim Crook on R.E. Jeffrey's later career... and much more.   We recreate for you Aberdeen's opening night - hear the songs and some of the voices. We look at the challenges of the weather, and the shrinking nature of BBC local radio - both in 1923 and in 2025.   Thoughts on any of this? Email me: paul at paulkerensa dot com. And see the below links for more on this marvellous tale...   SHOWNOTES: Original music is by Will Farmer.  Gordon Bathgate's excellent book Aberdeen Calling: 100 Years of the BBC in Aberdeen is available for your bookshelf: https://amzn.to/42mDDuJ Dr Aleksandar Kocic's thesis - 'What perceptions of local radio by its journalists and listeners tell us about its role and future' - is here: https://dspace.stir.ac.uk/handle/1893/35995?mode=full Graham Stewart's website Scotland On Air has more on the 2BD Aberdeen story here: https://wiki.scotlandonair.com/wiki/2BD Prof Tim Crook's article on R.E.

As astronomers find more and more planets around other stars, the big question we want to know is: are they habitable, could there be life there?   The vast majority of stars in the Milky Way are red dwarf stars, and most of the planets in habitable zones have been found orbiting these cooler, less massive stars.

Costs are falling, ranges are increasing, and adoption is growing across the UK and beyond. But despite this progress, the EV transition is still battling misinformation, cultural resistance, and outdated narratives that slow down change.The problem isn't just about technology, it's about how the story is told. From charging infrastructure myths to debates over grid capacity, the way we talk about EVs has a direct impact on how fast people adopt them. To accelerate the shift, the industry needs clear communication, positive examples, and a willingness to challenge entrenched scepticism.In this episode of Transmission, Ed is joined by Robert Llewellyn - actor, writer, and founder of Everything Electric - to explore how storytelling, education, and culture are shaping the clean transport revolution. Together, they dig into why better narratives matter just as much as better batteries in driving the shift to zero-carbon mobility. Over the course of the conversation they discuss:⚡ Why EV myths still dominate the conversation and how to challenge them.⚡ The role of media and storytelling in accelerating adoption.⚡ How charging infrastructure is developing faster than public perception.⚡ Why the grid can cope with electrification and what still needs work.⚡ What's next for EV culture as the transition goes mainstream.About our guestRobert Llewellyn is an actor, writer, presenter, and the creator of Everything Electric, one of the world's leading channels dedicated to electric vehicles and clean energy. Best known to many as Kryten from Red Dwarf and host of Scrapheap Challenge, Robert has become a driving force in the public conversation around electrification and sustainability.

Casual Trek - A Star Trek Recap and Ranking Podcast

The ‘mystical pregnancy' trope is a bit of an overused one in genre fiction and Star Trek visits that well so many times we had options for which ones to highlight here.The episode you all knew was coming is Star Trek: The Next Generation's “The Child” where Troi gets pregnant with a cosmic entity. We also see puppies and the Enterprise dealing with a horrendous disease as a B plot.Star Trek: Voyager had so many episodes for this trope, but we picked “Elogium” where Kes' body accidentally jumpstarts its mating process in some of the most grotesque ways possible. Oh, and Neelix wants everyone to know he was a bad boy before he met Kes.Finally Enterprise's “Unexpected” has Trip head over to a freaky alien ship where he helps with their engines but gets mpregged in the process. You dirty dog, Trip! 00:03:41 What Non-Star Trek Thing We've Been Enjoying: Jaws and Exorcist novelisations, Super Mario Kart World (and not having a summer cold)00:13:08 Star Trek: The Next Generation “The Child”00:40:34 Star Trek: Voyager “Elogium”01:12:11 Enterprise “Unexpected”And stick around to the end for a horrifying bonus feature!Pedants Corner:The ‘modern' V is from 2009, so it's 16 years old“A New Start” from Degrassi High was actually in 1989 and while it did air, they had to remove the characters fighting their way through anti-abortion picketersJarvis Cocker took the piss out of Michael Jackson in 1996, one year after ElogiumTalking points include: Donna Troy's Zombie Baby, Prometheus, V (old and new versions), Legion of Super-Heroes, Super Mario Kart World, GoldenEye, do NOT ask about Avengers issue 200, weird X-Men pregnancies, Charlie's top tip for karaoke, PUPPIES!, Ian & Barbara, the crew as Wesley's parents, Degrassi's abortion storyline, Space: 1999, Charlie brings back that old ZX Spectrum/Commodore 64 rivalry, 1995 Michael Jackson is a rough sight, Michelle Pfieffer, Star Wars Episode One, Red Dwarf, “The Writer's Barely Disguised Fetish”, Barbarella, Legz Akimbo, Prometheus, Battlestar Galactica (the new one), Attractive Doctors Who, Dune, mpreg, whether Chris Claremont has ever done an mpreg (he hasn't), Quasar, Farscape, Quantum Leap, Chat Out of Hell, .
