Hello November Kelly fans! I’m a writer and journalist who has been listening to TF and Kill James Bond for a while, and I wanted to know more about who November is and how she became the person she is today. I spoke to her and a bunch of people close to her, and here’s what I learned.

We’ve brought on our friend and long-suffering literary correspondent Nish Kumar to discuss Matthew Goodwin’s new book that he wrote using AI while cribbing a stupid meme from the Joe Rogan Experience: “suicidal empathy.” The hits are all there, but Goodwin can’t bring himself to go full Camp of the Saints, and instead just pads his word count with the help of computer and winds up writing white grievance Fanon instead.

We speak with astrophysicist and journalist Adam Becker about a new development: what if you could outsource even more aspects of your childcare, namely children’s play, to an LLM-connected device? What if your stuffed rabbit espoused Dengism? What if you wound up with an ancap Labubu? All this and more, on this week’s episode.
