The Phileas Club 209 - something happened in Hungary


Contributors:

Patrick does podcasts for a living and hails from France (and often Finland) with his wonderful wife and two kids.


Dan was born in a small city and moved to bigger places until he found his home in Mexico City. Far from the cows and the ranch, he has worked in advertising, taught classes, and enjoys making podcasts—even if it sometimes feels like podcasting will never catch on. He’s also a tech enthusiast and an AI skeptic—not because he doesn’t know how to use the latest digital toys, but because he uses them constantly, and his main job is fixing the things the robot overlords don’t (yet) know how to solve.


You can find him as DanCampos on Bluesky and X, or just google “Noticias de Tecnología Express” or “Churros y Palomitas” and you’ll see his face.


And finally the Bruce "Title-less" Woodward produces the show.

Every week, The Phileas Club gathers a panel of guests from different corners of the globe to tear apart the headlines. This isn't a dry recitation of events; it's a living room conversation that spans continents. You'll hear firsthand accounts of what's actually dominating the discourse in their home countries-from serious political shifts and cultural debates to the bizarre local story that's captured everyone's attention. Hosted by NotPatrick, the discussions are as unpredictable as the news itself, often weaving between insightful analysis and lighthearted, silly tangents. The result is a unique lens on current affairs, where international perspectives collide, sometimes with heat, always with a human touch. By focusing on the people behind the news, this podcast transforms global understanding from a concept into a series of compelling, relatable dialogues. It’s for anyone who finds traditional news coverage too distant and wants to feel the texture of what's happening elsewhere, served through genuine conversation and occasional friendly chaos. Tune in to hear the world argue, explain, and laugh its way through another week.
