THE SOCIAL MELTDOWN
Based (very loosely) on the r/collapse subreddit — where calm, well-educated people document the slow death of civilisation and only the qualified and well balanced are allowed to post— The Social Meltdown is a weekly glance at the chaos. Climate dread. AI hallucinations. Tech cults. Influencers crying in ring lights and UNHINGED politics.
Dylan Evans has millions of followers and the quick witted reflexes of someone raised inside the algorithm. Graeme Smith has a national radio show and a stack of podcast awards — which sounds respectable until you hear what he does with this.
Sometimes it’s dark, usually it’s funny…sometimes it’s wholesome… because you’ve got to make the most of these final days.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
