I know we're not great about content warnings, but seriously if listening to someone breathlessly describe skewering animals with a mail-order spear would ruin your day skip this one. But remember: ultimately, it's for the environment.

Being a nerd means sometimes you're in the right place at the right time to be on the cutting edge of an emerging field. In the early 2010s unmanned aerial vehicles were taking off, and one enterprising model rocketry nerd was in the right place at the right time to ride them to hog heaven. Or hog hell, depending on how you look at it. Lots of (invasive) animal death in this one!

An underdog story. A high-energy funny fat guy. A camera. Cinematic empires have been forged from these tools from generations. Tony Tango may not have broken the mold, but its production certainly broke a few forum threads! Also, a surprise return of merfolk to the IFTI universe.

It's our first (but certainly not last) foray into the world of Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games! This is a more personal look at the communities that form in these games, and the culture clash that can occur when a person talks about their top-level WoW raiding on the same forum they talk about their real-life struggles

We've reviewed the lost texts and learned about the original Zybourne Clock. Now we explore its legacy and transformation from an object of mockery to an affectionate and relatable artifact of what the internet used to be.
Extra special thanks to Fuego Fish from the Something Awful forums, who worked on The Zybourne Clock, for being my source on this episode. You can check out his fiction and ongoing work at http://plunderpress.com/
This week we are joined by video game expert Jeremy Kaplowitz, co-host of the Quorators podcast and co-founder of the video game satire site Hard Drive.

Much like the Zybourne Clock itself, our concluding episode on the topic and interview with Fuego Fish has run into unforeseen production delays. In the meantime, here's an episode from our Patreon bonus show about a figure in early furry and webcomic history.

This, my darling, is a legend. A legend many men and many women claim to have seen, understood, and known. A story about time travel which, ironically, has been largely lost to the sands of time. Until now.
This, darling, is The Zybourne Clock. The real Zybourne Clock. Johnny Cornfeld, not Johnny Fiveaces. The monolith, not the golden egg.
Buckle up, we're going to "Bookworld".

From the publisher's feed
The Internet changed everything. Every single aspect of modern life, whether it is commerce, fashion, war, dating, porn, religion, agriculture, art, or crime, was revolutionized when the Internet…
Hosted by Jay Brandstetter and Winslow Dumaine, this podcast explores how the culture of the Internet was created, how it changed its users, and how those users went on to influence the Internet we use today. With a combined five decades of experiences on different sides of the Internet, our diverse and insightful takes on the subjects are neither hopelessly blackpilled nor blindly futurist, but fresh, strange, and informative.
Jay Brandstetter is an internet historian and online content creator. In addition to a lifetime of firsthand research on the Something Awful forums and elsewhere, he created the popular Twitter account "crazy ass moments in Something Awful history".
Winslow Dumaine is a comedian and illustrator out of Chicago. He’s opened for Kyle Kinane, Dave Ross, and Sam Tallent, and toured with Derek Sheen. His debut work of fiction is The Tarot Restless, a hand illustrated deck of tarot cards and a book of short stories. He also created The Restless, a card game set during the final days of human extinction. If you want to know more about his game development and follow along with his future projects, join Winslow’s Discord here.
