droincore is a safe space to wonder about how we relate to ourselves, to others and to the world. droincore is DIY, radical but also cosy... it's a conversation that tries to bring some difficult subjects into honest and open thinking. things like how we masturbate, where fascism hides in cinema, identifying with queer, understanding consent, divesting of privilege, and taking care of each other outside of capitalist trappings. stuff like that. droincore holds no authority over anything – it ...

time for a big podcast! luckily for listening peoples this one contains a variety of voices, as we look across a range of comedians in order to explore satire, offense and responsibility. how do we decide if controversial material is appropriate? how can we use irony responsibly? what place does satire have in our hyper-consumerist culture? this po…

this episode is all about cynicism, about how it has its claws in us and looking how its used by some texts/art in interesting ways... and by others in less interesting, more dangerous ways. we talk about cynicism as influenced by the rise of neo-liberalism and the massive expansion of accessible, consumable culture. we talk a lot about Alan Moore'…

this podcast is gettin' all ideasy about Susan Sontag's 2 essays "Against Interpretation" and "On Style". in proper droin style, its a jumbly stumble thru different points of interest like a citytour with no landmarks, but this podcast is all about how to use style and content as a single totality, so hopefully its pretty appropriate for our droin …

this podcast is a bit of a new thing - its our droiny take on the UK general election something a bit like gonzo writing on the subject - an impressionistic rush from the beaten path, giving an idea of what it felt like to see the election from here. there's a short intro, and then the piece itself, Grossly Political, which is accompanied by Tik To…

this podcast is all about consent, specifically around sex. it might be a sensitive issue for some; hopefully this is still a safe space for talking, but there is a trigger warning at the start of the podcast. we're mainly exploring how issues around consent can be a lot subtler and slippery than we might assume, and why that might be, especially c…

we've got a podcast about videogames today. how very cool. this isn't a podcast particularly for gamers, or non-gamers. it's about how dominant videogames tend towards an optimization for the sake of 'convenience'. it's a call to engage more critically with videogames, and a push to find games with innovative systems that challenge the dominantly p…

this week is all about now - this particular part of the year, when we are drawn into winter; when autumn releases us from its breathy, colourful whimsy and we move towards darker and colder times. ceremonies that mark this moment have long been practiced across the world, and can provide a stable means for each of us to ready ourselves for the new…

the (inadvertantly) longest droin so far is a luxurious stroll. this time we share a bit of gossip about a brand new netflix show (because this is a contemporary podcast once in a while). and then: sampling in hardcore tekno/techno as a layering of texts which, through recontextualisation, creates new meanings and commentaries. that's a serious con…

do not be shocked that your monday was droinless - we're just trying out tuesday to see if it's more of a droincore day. this episode is a little different. no in-depth discussion of a large idea, but instead a tribute podcast to that wonderful bird, the grouse. it's a shout of defiance against grouse shooting, and a silly meander around other thin…

the most ambitious droin yet. we revisit taoism to explore how it can be a helpful aid to as we try to remove ourselves from systems of oppression. it's taking taoism for a short excursion outside of winnie the pooh into self-care and politics. this week's music is It Ain't Over Til the Fat Lady Turns to Pixels by Spongebob Squarewave. Spongebob & …

this week is all about taoism and winnie-the-pooh. due to *not-wanting-it-be-long* and *digressing-into-other-things*, we really only talked about the tao as simplicity, the uncarved block, p'u. so we kept it appropriately simple, let's say. featuring a Bear With Very Little Brain and the ruler of the universe. there's also a short story to enjoy. …
