Ten Thousand Posts

Woke Finder Generals ft. Pope Lonergan

Added 2021-05-14 00:41:58 +0000 UTC

Comedian, writer and all around cool guy Pope Lonergan joins us on the pod to talk about what's going on in the current "war on woke", and in particular, why there seems to be so many old, divorced people such as uhm, Laurence Fox, trying to build a career off the back of it, only to find themselves struggling to keep up with the media cycle. As a result, they keep doing weird, kind of outdated posts, and then get mad when you point that out. Sorry for the bad news, Grandpa!

We also talk about Hussein getting cancelled by GB News for the crime of pitching a TV show to Andrew Neil, and about Dominic Cummings emerging from his gaming cocoon in order to post increasingly erratic blogs that Britain's biggest media brains keep thinking is smarter than it actually is. Why? Because the blogs are long and journalists have low attention spans - a brilliant feature of an institution designed to report on government corruption and scandal.

Ten Thousand Posts is a show about how everything is posting. It's hosted by Hussein (@HKesvani), Phoebe (@PRHRoy) and produced by Drew (@Drewtopia_). Follow us on Twitter at @10kpostspod and send us bad posts when you see them!
