Anime Sickos

How come all this fascism and tariff shit is allowed to happen? Why are so many critical US agencies being deleted? Why isn't anyone stopping this? The Sickos have the answer: We live in Corpse World, a post-function existence where the concept of "doing" has been phased out entirely. Intrigued? Yeah bitch I know it's brilliant. Listen for the full story

We return to our ongoing project to rank all game mechanics, but when it comes to the immersive sim and fighting game genres, we don't have the expertise required to make those decisions. So we had Josh Boerman from the Worst of All Possible Worlds podcast join us to help us with the imsim mechanics and our buddy Dylan (aka Jordi from Sicko Shock 2) do the fighting game ones. What's better than this: homies chilling and yapping about video games baby

Check out Josh's podcast here: worstpossible.world

It's another grab bag of bits. We introduce a new segment about the most insanely fatal "non-lethal" attacks from the Yakuza games, find insider knowledge about the grim state of radio, and invent a new coffee sensation: The Americano 2. Check it out! Play our new video game Time Force X: Mission of Lennon here! https://anime-sickos-podcast.itch.io/time-force-x

Dono from the excellent podcast Radio Free Tote Bag goes guesto mode! We yammer about how getting into synth music is just an excuse to make your room look like where Daft Punk does their taxes, Tom & Joe answer relationship questions with their perfect brains, and Dono joins us in ranking some classic game mechanics. It's fun as hell folks, check this one out.

You can listen to Radio Free Tote Bag at rftb.me or just do it the same way you listen to any podcast. Podcasts are all in the same place

The Sickos do a special unemployed version of Cog Talk where they do the unthinkable and wish they had an evil computer that took up half their time with awful job tasks. As bad as it is, just sitting around all day is worse! Plus, Tom yammers and yaps about The Bee Sting, a great novel by Paul Murray.

The Sickos continue to fill our their definitive tier list of all game mechanics, this time saying the final word on runs, consumables, joke classes, pressing the thumbstick down, and more. If you skip these episodes you're basically worse than Elon

Shit is so bad! The dumbest evil man is wrecking the country using a cadre of Nazi zoomers named after an outdated meme! Da future is grim and we are miserable! Therefore, we do the only thing we can do to keep our minds from total destruction: complaining!!!

We never thought we'd see the day: it's a posting episode. The insane repliers of Bluesky have stepped up, providing a critical mass of deranged posts without us having to log on to the odious X. We have sex poems, joke correctors, the Hawk Truth, and leaked photos of Heaven. Check it out

After the most harrowing week of fascist American leadership in our memory, the Sickos must seek the healing aura of Resident Evil 4, the platonic ideal of video game, and the real-life manifestation of Bonestorm, the game Bart wants on the Simpsons. We talk both the original and the remake. They both rule. It is fun when you kick an old old Spanish man and his head becomes deleted

The Sickos watched the unbelievable indie silent slapstick comedy Hundreds of Beavers. Here's the thing: This movie is gaming. Watching this movie is the same as Minecraft except every two minutes you see the dumbest image of your life and go haw haw! We are absolutely in the tank for this movie and will go to war on its behalf. It's the only movie with a UI. You can watch the entire movie legally and for free on YouTube right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guE0Qd8BRw0
