Ooshies Fever: The Supermarket Toy Turning Parents Feral

Mon, 31 Aug 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Woolworths just ran one of the most successful marketing campaigns in Australian retail history. It was free, plastic, and aimed squarely at six-year-olds.

This week Alex and John dig into Ooshies: the blind-bag Disney toys that took over Australian supermarkets, gave Woolworths' share price a boost, dented Coles', and turned primary school playgrounds into trading floors. We'll get into the psychology behind blind-bag toys (it's the same intermittent-reinforcement mechanism that makes slot machines addictive), the $30,000 rare-donkey eBay listing that wasn't quite what it seemed, and why it's parents, not kids, actually driving the spend.

Send this one to the friend in your life who's currently a few hundred dollars deep chasing a rubber Wolverine.

Your Rust Belt Town Just Got Data Centred: Deal With It

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 19:00:00 GMT

There's a data center planned for Utah that was originally supposed to be twice the size of Manhattan. Even after intense local pushback chopped it in half, it's still incomprehensibly massive.

Alex and John try to picture that (they can't), then get into why old Rust Belt towns are trading steel mills for server racks and getting a fraction of the jobs they were promised. Tax breaks, diesel generators, a 24-hour hum nobody asked for, but hey, John gets to pester ChatGPT with nonsense hypotheticals.

The Viral Hit That Proves AI Music Is Out Of Control

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Fenix Flexin swore up and down he freestyled "Rubberz." He didn't. This week: how an AI-generated rap song landed on the Billboard Hot 100, racked up 35 million Spotify streams, and got taken down by a producer who noticed the file name still contained the AI music platform they used. facepalm

Alex and John pick through the wreckage. The mumble-rap-to-Morrissey pivot nobody saw coming. The Andrew Callahan interview where Fenix can't even remember his own "freestyled" lyrics on camera. What it means when a guy with a decade of real releases decides two prompts and a "generate" button beat writing an actual song. Plus: Pitchfork's first zero-out-of-ten in years, the Fawaz/Madonna cover mess, and why Spotify's new AI labeling rules protect almost nobody.

TikTok's Live Shopping Boom Is Changing The Face Of Retail

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 19:13:25 GMT

TikTok Shop is quietly building the biggest impulse-buying machine in retail history — a live, algorithmically-fed home shopping channel on track for $112 billion in sales this year alone. Alex and John trace live shopping back to the QVC playbook of the 1980s, work out why parasocial trust converts better than any ad ever could, and confess their own TikTok- and Facebook Marketplace-fuelled purchases. Also: why eBay is panicking, why Australia still can't get TikTok Shop, and the hashtag #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt that explains it all.

Why Every Bus Stop In London Is Selling Nicotine Now

Mon, 03 Aug 2026 18:00:00 GMT

This week Alex and John go deep on the nicotine pouch revolution that started in Sweden, jumped to America and has now completely taken over British train stations, McLaren merchandise and apparently Tucker Carlson's entire personality. They get into what is actually in these little white pillows (spoiler, not tobacco), why a Swedish company sold to Philip Morris for sixteen billion dollars, why teenagers on TikTok have turned pouching into a personality and why Tucker Carlson had to be told by his own sponsor to stop making claims about what Zyn does for a man's stamina.

Also covered, why Australia just banned the entire category, why France did too, whether wet bagging is cool or deeply embarrassing and whether either host would actually put one in their gums for the sake of content.

Screensavers, Ringtones & Answering Machines: A Eulogy for Dead Tech

Mon, 27 Jul 2026 18:00:00 GMT

Screensavers used to be a whole universe — toasters with wings, mazes drawing themselves, flying stars you could stick your face in. Then one day they just... stopped. This week Alex and John dig up three pieces of tech that were once completely unremarkable parts of daily life and are now totally gone: screensavers, ringtones, and answering machines. Along the way: the accidental birth of the flying toaster, why Jefferson Airplane nearly sued a screensaver company, the Berlin-founded ringtone empire that gave the world Crazy Frog, a $4.4 billion industry that vanished in five years, and the case for the answering machine as the original social media platform.

There's Something Missing In The World's Most Liveable Cities

Mon, 20 Jul 2026 19:00:00 GMT

The 2026 EIU Global Liveability Index has dropped, and Alex and John have a combined 60+ years living in this year's top 10 — which makes them uniquely qualified to ask: is "liveable" actually the same thing as good?

This week: why the famous rankings are secretly a corporate tool for calculating executive danger pay, what the criteria hilariously refuse to measure (fun, weather, goth scenes, the price of cigarettes), and why the world's "best" cities, New York, Paris, Berlin, aren't anywhere near the list.

Bonnie Tyler Is Gone. The Power Ballad Went First.

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Bonnie Tyler has died, and with her goes something bigger than one Welsh voice with a rasp.

Total Eclipse of the Heart is seven minutes of zero-irony emotional maximalism, the kind of song everyone on Earth knew without ever choosing to, and nobody makes anything like it anymore.

So this week Alex and John tear up the episode schedule to ask the big question: what actually killed the power ballad?

Along the way: Jim Steinman, the leather-gloved rock opera maximalist who wrote it for a Nosferatu vampire musical (really), the gloriously unhinged music video, the uncredited male vocalist you never knew was on the track, the 1995 Nikki French eurodance cover that fooled a generation, why hair metal bands were contractually obligated to get sentimental, and how irony, algorithms and the death of the school disco slow dance quietly murdered the most sincere genre pop music ever produced.

Turn around, bright eyes. This one's for Bonnie.

Ozempic Pt.2 - The Economic Shock: Shrinking Bras, Dead Snack Aisles & Denmark's Mortgage Miracle

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 18:12:18 GMT

One in eight Americans is on a GLP-1, and the ripples are turning up in the strangest places. Victoria's Secret is selling fewer big bras. Secondhand sites are drowning in suddenly-too-large wardrobes. The checkout impulse aisle — a $6 billion monument to your eroded willpower — is dying.

In part two of our GLP-1 deep dive, Alex and John follow the money through the collapsing snack economy: why cinemas and theatre bars are in trouble, how Nestlé is pivoting to three-bite meals, what happens to cruise ships when "all you can eat" stops being a selling point, the uncomfortable questions around kids and prisoners on the jab — and why the humble Gila monster is the unlikely lizard behind it all.

1 in 8 Americans On Ozempic. And It's Just Beginning

Mon, 29 Jun 2026 19:10:09 GMT

30 million Americans are quietly getting thinner, and it's not through discipline or willpower. It's a weekly injection derived from the saliva of a Gila monster lizard. Welcome to the Ozempic revolution.

In part one of a two-part series, Alex and John dig into the GLP-1 drug phenomenon that's reshaping bodies, brains, and culture at a speed no diet trend ever has. From the Danish pharmaceutical company that accidentally broke its own stock exchange, to the celebrities suspiciously crediting "lifestyle changes" for dramatic weight loss, to the uncomfortable question of what these drugs mean for the body positivity movement, this is way bigger than weight loss.

They also revisit the original cutting-edge weight loss technology: Light and Easy frozen meals, a bag of South Australian marijuana, and absolutely no self-control.

Topics covered: Ozempic, Wegovy, semaglutide, GLP-1 drugs, weight loss drugs 2024, body positivity, Novo Nordisk, celebrity weight loss, Lizzo, Mindy Kaling, Megan Trainor, Wegovy ads, food culture, diet culture history

Don't Praise The Machine is a weekly comedy podcast about the ways culture is shifting, hosted by two old friends from opposite sides of the world.

The Tattoo Plateau: How The Ink Ran Dry

Mon, 22 Jun 2026 20:00:00 GMT

This week Alex and John trace the full arc — from Ötzi the Iceman's 5,300-year-old tattoos to the Gen Z vs millennial style split, the mainstreaming of ink in professional life, and the industry that's now growing faster than tattooing itself: laser removal.

Also discussed: how you rebel against your parents when your mum is already covered in tattoos, why the tattoo removal industry is worth $1.86 billion a year, and whether John will ever get one.

Michael Jackson: We Chose Music Over Truth

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 20:00:00 GMT

Alex saw Michael Jackson perform live in 1996. He was 14, obsessed, and desperately wanted to be one of those lucky boys he always saw by Michael's side. As the years went on, he became very glad he wasn't.

With the MJ biopic crossing a billion dollars at the box office and two active lawsuits still pending against his estate, Alex and John ask the question nobody in a theatre queue seems to be asking: what exactly are we all agreeing to ignore?

In this episode we cover the decades-long pattern of behaviour, the 1993 Jordan Chandler settlement, the evidence presented at the 2005 trial, the Australian boys, Leaving Neverland, and the $16.5 million payout to the Cascio family that almost nobody knows about.

And underneath all of it: the uncomfortable truth that his music is so woven into the fabric of our lives that the world has quietly decided the evidence just isn't worth looking at.

Steven Bartlett, Wine, & The Over-Optimized Trap

Mon, 08 Jun 2026 19:00:00 GMT

This week on Don't Praise the Machine, we're asking the question nobody in the productivity space wants to answer: is optimization culture actually making your life worse?

When a clip of Steven Bartlett went viral, explaining how three glasses of wine with friends "ruined him for three days," the internet didn't push back on the sobriety. They pushed back on the measurement. The Whoop band. The sleep scores. The idea that a normal Thursday night had become a biometric failure.

We dig into whether treating your life as a quantifiable system to be hacked and continuously improved is quietly destroying the things that make life worth living. Friendship, spontaneity, and the occasional loaded fry.

If you've ever felt guilty for enjoying yourself, this one's for you.

Rebel Wilson's Defamation Disaster — A Lawyer Explains

Mon, 01 Jun 2026 19:55:16 GMT

Rebel Wilson , star of Fat Pizza, Bridesmaids, and now defendant in her own defamation trial — is back in an Australian courtroom, this time on the wrong side of the lawsuit.

We break down the full saga: a Bondi Beach hives incident, an Outback debutante ball musical, nasty websites, a Ghislaine Maxwell comparison, and PR staffers privately texting that their own client is completely unhinged.

Joining the breakdown is a practicing Australian barrister who has been quietly calculating his own defamation exposure since agreeing to appear on this episode — and deploying the word "allegedly" as a legal shield throughout.

⚖️ Topics covered:

Rebel Wilson's defamation history & previous court win
The Charlotte vs. Rebel lawsuit explained
How Australian defamation law actually works
Why this case could cost Rebel millions
The wildest cast of characters in recent celebrity litigation

🎙️ Don't Praise the Machine is your survivor's guide to the cultural apocalypse.

Kid Rock: Rap-Rock Rebel to MAGA King

Mon, 25 May 2026 19:00:00 GMT

How did a guy who used to jump around in a white fur coat screaming "Bawitdaba" end up advising the Pentagon and hanging out in MAGA’s highest circles?

While his massive 1998 breakthrough album Devil Without A Cause pitched him as a raw, trailer-park, anti-establishment hero, the actual research reveals a slightly different story. From growing up on a wealthy Michigan estate with horses and orchards to commanding a massive modern cultural movement, we trace his bizarre 30-year journey through Nu Metal, Lynyrd Skynyrd samples, legendary tabloid drama, and full-blown political royalty.

It turns out Kid Rock and Donald Trump share a very specific, unique superpower and it’s exactly why their paths crossed.

Pack your bags, throw up the devil horns, and let's learn about the no.1 American Badass together.

Why Is Hollywood Obsessed With Business Stories?

Mon, 18 May 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Hollywood has a new favourite hero, and it is not a warrior, a wizard, or a spy. It is a founder, a CEO, a disruptor.

In this episode, we name and explore a brand new film genre: the capitalist procedural. From startup biopics to corporate origin stories, business movies have quietly taken over cinema and streaming, and we want to know why.

We break down what defines the genre, why studios keep greenlighting these films, and what it says about our culture that we are now paying to watch board meetings, product launches, and Series B funding rounds play out on the big screen.

Has hustle culture replaced the hero's journey? Are we using business stories to inject meaning into capitalism? Or have we just run out of ideas?

Topics covered: capitalist procedural, business movies, startup films, Hollywood trends, cinema culture, film genre, hustle culture, founder mythology, cultural criticism, film analysis

How Banksy Became the Establishment's Favourite Rebel

Mon, 11 May 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Banksy built his reputation as an anonymous, anti-establishment street artist, spray-painting subversive stencils, dodging the law, and thumbing his nose at the art world elite. So how did he end up with Brad Pitt, Christina Aguilera, and Westminster City Council singing his praises?

We trace Banksy's full arc: from punk origins in early-90s Bristol, to A-list celebrity collector, to a Reuters investigation that may have finally unmasked the man behind the mask, and revealed something far more ordinary than the myth.

We ask the uncomfortable question: is Banksy actually toothless? And has he always been?

Financial Journalist Tom Maloney Explains Prediction Markets

Mon, 04 May 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Prediction markets have exploded to $25 billion traded in a single month — but what exactly are they, and why should you care? Bloomberg journalist Tom Maloney joins the show to break down how platforms like Polymarket work, who's getting rich, and the deeply weird world of betting on elections, missile strikes, and Kim Kardashian's bar exam. From soldiers allegedly insider trading on military operations to people threatening journalists over their bets, this episode explores whether prediction markets are the final boss of financial nihilism.

Paid Virality Machine: How Clippers Took Over Your Feed

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 19:00:00 GMT

We pull back the curtain on the Clip Economy — the hidden industry where streamers pay teenagers thousands of dollars a month to flood TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts with manufactured viral content.

We break down how Andrew Tate pioneered the paid clipping model, how figures like Clavicular and Gymskin rose to fame through coordinated clip campaigns, and why context is dying in the age of the algorithm.

In this episode:

→ What the Clip Economy is and how it works

→ How streamers industrialized virality with Discord servers and affiliate links

→ Why short-form content is designed to strip away context

→ What this means for your media diet

Inspired by Charlie Warzel's Rise of the Clip Economy (The Atlantic) and Deon Nash's exposé on manufactured viral content.

Pamela Anderson: From Blonde Bombshell to Earth Mother

So how did she end up quoting Dostoevsky and giving spiritual speaking tours in Australia, selling skincare and preaching slow living at 58 yeard old? We break down the one of the most audacious celebrity rebrand of the decade — the Pamverse in full.

The Infuriating Genius of Keinemusik

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Keinemusik are the Berlin electronic music collective who've built a global empire playing Afro house in front of pyramids, eating on stage and checking their phones — and somehow it works. They are both genuinely impressive and strangely irritating, and we want to explore why. We dig into what Keinemusik actually are, why they've become such a massive cultural phenomenon, and whether there's anything left of the countercultural roots of club music in a world of €2000 a seat VIP tables and clout-chasing iPhone videos.

The $200m Aussie Radio Death of Kyle & Jackie O

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 17:00:00 GMT

After 27 years together, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O — Australia's most dominant commercial FM breakfast duo — have finally parted ways. Jackie has declared she can no longer work with Kyle, who has been stood down for serious misconduct, and their $200 million, 10-year KIIS FM deal is now in tatters.

We look back at how they built their partnership in Australian media, how they commanded eye-watering salaries that prime ministers and premiers couldn't afford to ignore, the failed Melbourne expansion that quietly began unravelling the whole machine, and what their spectacular split means for legacy commercial radio, and where the industry goes from here.

Why on earth are the world’s most famous people haunting GoFundMe?

We’ve seen a string of tragic headlines lately, from James Van Der Beek to Eric Dane, but in the wake of the sadness comes a strange new reality: your famous heroes are asking you to help them out financially. Is this a genuine community safety net for those slipping through the cracks of a broken healthcare system, or have our parasocial relationships just turned even stranger?

We ask the question more broadly: when is it okay to ask, what makes us feel we should give, and is there a better way of doing both?

Why Hollywood Men Wear Fake Packages

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 19:00:00 GMT

We watched 28 Years Later and noticed something strange: the "naked" zombies aren't actually naked. Turns out 80-90% of what you see on screen is completely fake. From White Lotus to Euphoria to Pam & Tommy, Hollywood actors are wearing carefully crafted prosthetics instead of the real thing.

Why the sudden shift? We investigate the rise of intimacy coordinators, the on-set rules that changed everything, and the surprising industry behind Hollywood's most realistic fake body parts.

Discover how one Australian lawyer-turned-intimacy coordinator revolutionized filmmaking, why major productions now budget thousands for prosthetics, and what directors like Danny Boyle look for when selecting the "perfect" prosthetic for their alpha zombies.

It's a fascinating look at how modern Hollywood balances artistic vision, actor comfort, and legal protection—all while keeping audiences fooled.
