In this episode of Regular Features, Log's been playing the hip new rocket propelled grenade Final Fantasy 16. Steve's been caught dumping aspartame into all your favourite sugar free drinks. And Joe's found a prudish new sponsor who'll take us from curse... to worse!

533: Pardon Clive's Pepsi

A melted community of stock pumpers and meme-makers obsessed with Palantir, the company founded by Peter Thiel and nursed to maturity by the CIA. In this episode we explore the history of Palantir including its work with ICE, the military industrial complex and various police forces. Then we dive into the PLTR subreddit where people are worshiping Alex Karp, the company's CEO, and encouraging others to invest in a company known for mass surveillance and using AI to enhance drone assassinations. Our guest is Katie Notopoulos, who wrote an article for Fast Company titled "How Palantir stock developed a weird, passionate, meme-crazy fan base".

An online community convinced they can change their race by watching and listening to youtube videos called "subliminals". The "Race Change To Another" or RCTA crowd have more tangible counterparts in figures like Oli London, a person who first garnered media attention for getting a bunch of plastic surgery to resemble a male K-POP star, and has since become a right wing talking head at the center of the anti-trans panic. A cursed episode for sure.

Premium Episode 222: Race Change To Another, Subliminals & Oli London (Sample)

Hey, you know how a demure Helen O'Connell asks Dean Martin how he likes his eggs in the morning (in the hit song "How D'ya Like Your Eggs In The Morning"), and how it should be pretty obvious to everybody that she's coyly inviting him to stay the night?

But then a horny and oblivious Dean Martin keeps replying with "I LIKE MINE WITH A KISS" and "REALLY DON'T CARE ABOUT EGGS, JUST GOTTA GET MY FREAKIN KISSES" and later, "I WILL TRANSFORM INTO AN ANGRY MONSTER IF IT'S JUST EGGS AND WE DON'T ACTUALLY SHAG BTW".

And then people in the 1950s were like, damn that guy's cool. Let's nickname him "The King of Cool" for that. Let's put him in a Rat Pack for that. It's just something to think about!

In this episode, Steve shares his favourite scene from hot kitchen drama The Bear, Joe remasters a beloved racket-and-ball sports series, and Log attempts to get his texts read out on 6 Music. Gav is there, making sure we all behave.

Thanks!

behind!

536: Squash My 6 Music Bear

Are you ready to be premonition pilled? In the second episode of the Spectral Voyager, we take you on a journey through several devastating disasters - Aberfan, 9/11, the Titanic, plane crashes - and the people that seemed to dream of them before they happened. In fact, there were so many cases of these dreams and visions that a national bureau was created in the U.K. to catalog them, with a tragic ending. We also interview science writer, author, and precog expert Dr. Eric Wargo about the possible scientific explanations of the phenomena. So join Jake and Brad to find out if we can dream the future… or if it’s all just coincidence and hindsight bias.

297 - Who's Got the Juice

In 1989, in the bustling seaport of San Pedro, California, Jackie Hernandez began to experience strange phenomena in her newly rented bungalow.  Lights would turn on and off.  Objects would move.  A heavy breathing could be heard rattling in the attic above her laundry room.  After a neighbor experienced the activity herself, she encouraged Jackie to reach out to a team of Ghost Hunters she had recently seen on TV.  What would follow was a year-plus long investigation that included everything from full-figured apparitions, to dripping ectoplasm.  Jake and Brad provide a comprehensive look at either the best evidence of a poltergeist ever captured on video, or perhaps the first ‘found footage’ horror movie ever made.

In past QAA cryptid episodes, we typically find a creature thought to be real, but then is later debunked by modern science.  For this week’s Spectral Voyager, we thought it would be interesting to do the opposite:  Start with a creature once believed to be a myth, until scientists were able to actually prove its existence.  The Giant Squid has fascinated Jake since he was a young boy, and he, Brad, and Julian will pour through the animal’s legendary sightings dating all the way back to the fifteen hundreds.  Follow us along on the nearly five hundred year journey to prove the existence of one of the greatest mysteries the ocean has to offer us.  We’ll also be exploring the Mokele-Mbembe in Brad’s “Cryptid Corner” – a potentially prehistoric reptile that might very well haunt Lake Tele, deep in the jungles of Africa.
