| 4/13/26 | ![]() Sickfluencers: Help, hype, or fraud panic? | Sickfluencers are everywhere right now — but what are they actually doing, and why has it turned into such a political flashpoint?In this episode, Martha Tipper digs into the row over social media creators who post tips on claiming Personal Independence Payment (PIP) — from step-by-step guides to broader advice on navigating a system many people say is notoriously hard to “crack”.A new report from centre-right think tank Policy Exchange claims this kind of online coaching could fuel economic inactivity and put more pressure on the health and disability benefits system — and the report’s sponsorship by Reform UK’s Robert Jenrick has only cranked up the heat.But there’s another side to it: plenty of people with genuine — and often invisible — disabilities say this content is a lifeline, especially when legal aid and specialist support are hard to access, and rejection rates are high. So is this really about fraud… or is it about a benefits system that’s confusing by design?We also look at ideas being floated for reform — from means testing to more in-person assessments, and even vouchers or other targeted support — and why the practical reality may be messier than the headlines.Plus: what the DWP says about fraud levels, and why “people getting advice on the internet” might be the least shocking part of all this Hosted on Acast.

| 4/10/26 | ![]() BNW Preview: Michael Pollan | For Episode Nine, Evgeny is joined by Michael Pollan, journalist, author, and one of the leading voices exploring the human mind. Drawing on his new book A World Appears, Pollan makes an impassioned case for consciousness as something precious, private, and increasingly under threat. Together, they explore how social media and AI are not just competing for our attention, but beginning to shape attachment, emotion, and even our sense of self.The conversation ranges from chatbots and “AI psychosis” to meditation, psychedelics, and the idea of “consciousness hygiene” - the habits and practices that might help us protect our inner lives. Pollan also reflects on why writing is a form of thinking, why boredom and mind-wandering matter, and how experiences of ego dissolution, art, and nature can deepen our understanding of consciousness. The episode ends on a wider question: whether the real challenge is not only understanding consciousness, but learning how to practise it. Hosted on Acast.

| 4/9/26 | ![]() Revisit: The case for preserving London’s nightlife, with Fabric co-owner Cameron Leslie | With the recent closure of Corsica Studios, it felt like the right moment to revisit this episode — because the big question hasn’t gone away: can London actually keep its nightlife alive, or are we slowly watching it get priced and policed out of existence?There will be no major clubs left at all in the UK by 2030 if venue closures continue at the current rate, according to the Night Time Industries Association.
