Thanks, Wonga! feat. Oscar Rickett

from TRASHFUTURE · host TRASHFUTURE

It’s a busy start to September, and now that we’ve all renewed our dhimmi permits, we can enter the no-go zone of Whitechapel to record and episode. This week, Riley (@raaleh), and Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Nate (@inthesedeserts) joined journalist and writer Oscar Rickett (@oscarrickettnow) to discuss his work reporting on ayahuasca entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley and, more importantly, on the demise of predatory UK usury magnates Wonga. Hussein (@HKesvani) dialed in from exotic Vancouver, fatigued and red-eyed from another night of gaming. You can read Oscar’s piece about ayahuasca in the Guardian here: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/aug/31/ayahuasca-tourists-risk-death-henry-miller-colombia You can commodify your dissent with a t-shirt from http://www.lilcomrade.com/. You can also purchase useful kitchen implements from our socialist cookware sponsor, Vremi (https://vremi.com/).
