I invited British cartoonist Bob Moran to my podcast after reading his fascinating post on X:
I find the Australian Breakdancer phenomenon really interesting.

One of the major problems that's occurred, due to the alarming shift in public consciousness that's taken place over the last few years, is that totally absurd ideas and behaviour have been cemented as intelligent…
In case you haven't seen the 'Australian breakdancer' video and because the Olympic Committee is trying to have it taken down everywhere, here it is in full.
As a cartoonist, I can relate to Bob's sentiment.
What he says here is true. The line between satire and reality has blurred so much that it is now tricky to distinguish between the two. I like Bob’s point that nobody knows whether the Australian breakdancer is a joke.
