  • Why Broligarchs Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos Are the Unholy Trinity
    Mar 28 2025

    Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture - Jeremiah 23:1.

    What happens when the world becomes little more than a plaything for three individuals stocked with ungodly amounts of wealth?

    The Jeremiad Podcast explores the dangers and ramifications of profit-driven false-prophets gaining increasing influence and power in shaping the world around them, focusing on what we dub the Unholy Trinity of modern Broligarchs: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos.

  • Modern Footbailers
    Jan 27 2025

    As Jeremiad once again takes to the field of our 'Game's Gone' series detailing the ills of modern football, today we shine the light on the players themselves.

    Modern football players are afforded a certain status in society. The Jeremiad podcast seeks to uncover the perceived issues around attitude, morality and judgement among modern footballers.

    Heathens in fancily constructed studded footwear, too many modern players wear gloves with short sleeves. This can not be right. Player power is at an all time high and has rendered virtue in short supply.

    But is it always the players fault, that their egos are elevated so far above normality? Listen to our brimming discourse in this episode of the Jeremiad podcast to find out.
