It's all over local news too - look at this bullshit. I've made a personal rule: if the headline writer doesn't respect me enough to pull this trick, I'm not reading.

A headline from Yorkshire Live. "Not Whitby and Scarborough - pretty seaside town with 'best beach in Yorkshire'"

I knew Dropout was entering the mainstream, but this is quite the cast for their first overseas live show. Jenny Eclair in particular is, like, a huge get. Looks cool as hell!

The big thing right now is AI websites trying to create transcripts for podcasts, and when you make a podcast you get a bunch of hits from these sites. Today I found myself on this one, whose homepage has a truly incredible "Quote of the Day" feature.

Quote of the Day: “The topics and opinions expressed in the following show are solely those of the hosts and their guests and not those of W4CY Radio its employees or affiliates.”

Behind the scenes at WtMG looks basically how you'd expect.

A desk with two computer monitors. One displays the WtMG key art while the other has Discord open. Riley is scared to open any other program in case it breaks. The desk also has a keyboard, a microphone, a cup of tea, and a pair of sunflower earrings.

I think given that it's a Lorne joint, plus Peacock already having next-day streaming, the intent is to make this a hit on both sides. That said, as far as marketing goes I enjoyed this random fox hanging out. I think there's lots of stuff being thrown at the wall right now to see what sticks.

Watched Die My Love yesterday. Jennifer Lawrence gunning for Most Actress, killer cinematography and editing, and a manic pace kept up throughout (with the occasional moment to breathe). Let down by the ending imo, which veers into a strange melodrama that breaks with the rest of the film. Good tho!

What's that account that posts journalists trying to rephrase things to avoid repetition? Because the otherwise very good profile on the Mountain Goats in GQ has this absolutely excellent one

Philadelphia, though, immediately feels light and fresh. It is a two-show day, so the bus arrives at World Café Live—a nonprofit venue that’s part of the University of Pennsylvania’s WXPN radio station—just before 8:30 a.m. It is show No. 1,001 in the station’s Free at Noon series, a gratis lunchtime gig.

We see here that the donut brand is Sandy Pony Donuts, an independent chain with a location in Annapolis, MD - so that would suggest that's where we are. But they have a few other locations in different states - could be a hint to the contagion spreading?

The woman is wearing scrubs of some kind, so she could be the school nurse. Her whole outfit is very pink, which I would venture is a traditionally bright and happy colour - this is a fun contrast with her grim expression and the disgusting things she's doing.

The flags on the far left of the shot are interesting, because as well as the obvious US stars and stripes we have the state flag of Maryland. We already know that the show takes place in New Mexico, so whoever this is they're removed from the main action.

I have finally come up with a piece of podcast art I like for this new project, so let me now unveil a teaser... Radio Go! is a comedy show set inside a radio station, melding sketches and improv into the silliest thing you'll hear all day. Episodes start in September!

The name of the show, Radio Go!, in yellow on a lilac background. The letters are different sizes and slightly rotated at random, because the show is wacky, you see.

I am the world's finest screenwriter.

Scene 1. Customs at a US-Canada border. Beep. Beep. Beep. Then:
TSA AGENT #1: Excuse me, ma'am.
We see a woman from the back. A hand is placed on her shoulder.
TSA AGENT #1: Would you come with us?
She looks up. It's TATIANA MASLANY.
TSA AGENT #2 (V/O): Tatiana Maslany?
Cut to:
Scene 2. Back office. TATIANA with her luggage. Unbothered.
TSA AGENT #2: You don't have any documents?
She shakes her head. His partner:
TSA AGENT #3: Then how can you prove who you really are?
Tatiana stands - the agents flinch slightly. Goes around to her suitcase. Unzip, grab, slam. An Emmy. In her hand.
TATIANA: Google me.
Cut to:
Scene 3. Airport gate. TATIANA walks out with a smile, scot-free. Packing the Emmy into her bag and in no hurry to do so, she speaks into her collar.
TATIANA: President Putin, I am in position.
