I'M FROM THE INTERNET

Jay here, we're starting to work on new episodes and people have been asking if the show was coming back so I wanted to make it official and put something on the feed.

The bad news, it's going to be just a little longer. But I didn't want to leave you empty-handed so I'm including a double minisode to end 2023 on a bang: an oral history of the year's events on Something Awful, and a life update of just what exactly I've been up to this past half a year (!!!)

For those of you who aren't fans of the minisodes, don't fret because we recorded two proper episodes with Winslow a couple months back and as soon as Producer Steve returns from vacationing in Bali he's going to be working on getting those to you in 2024.

Thanks for being there for me, I literally wouldn't be where I am right now if it weren't for this show and I'm looking forward to another year of great stories about goons and their consequences!

The conclusion to the Brigador saga. Yes this is not the usual Wednesday upload date, but Steve is understandably occupied with saying goodbye to his beloved cat Shrodinger (RIP) so Jay had to edit this one and since he still doesn't have an apartment he's going to take advantage of wifi when he can get it.

This summer's The Flash movie is maybe one of the biggest bombs of the entire superhero movie era, so what better time to revisit Something Awful's comic book subforum for some classic 2000s internet exuberant superhero fanboyism. That's just the first ten minutes, the rest is Jay giving life updates and explaining the lack of recent uploads. but don't worry, we should be back on track in a few more weeks!

I'll edit the links mentioned in the ep here this evening.

Last we left off, the developers of Brigador were left scrambling after one of their co-founders was outed as a bigot. In this episode, we cover the fallout and bring some more fun revelations to light.

The document and sources for this three-parter will be released with the final episode to preserve the surprises and reveals.

The Your Console Sucks subforum of Something Awful was kind of like the Velvet Underground of late-00s video game shitposting communities: Not a lot of people posted there, but the ones who did went on to achieve varying degrees of success and infamy in video game development and criticism. This three-parter focuses on one of the products of that wellspring, the cult military sci-fi mech combat game Brigador. And don't worry if you've never heard of it before, because the game itself is arguably the least interesting part of this whole sordid saga.

Hulk Hogan Meat Shoes. For decades, it was just a really funny shitpost from the days before the term "shitposting" existed. But thanks to recent developments in the world of lost media, we finally have proof that the meat shoes were real all along.

We got broadcast over the air in New Zealand, baby! That means the radio waves containing our voices will continue to echo through the cosmos long after our sun has extinguished, all because a year ago Jay repurposed a Twitter account about video game toilets to post about weird forums lore.

If you enjoyed listening to Hugh, give him a follow on Twitter https://twitter.com/ObjectiveRealty

He also makes music that sounds kind of like the music from LISA: The Painful RPG which is high praise imho https://wolfboy.bandcamp.com/album/sand-treks

Continuing from last week, Brewkakke has ordered a large quantity of Russian benzodiazapenes to resell to his fellow posters in Something Awful's The Crackhead Clubhouse subforum. Luckily nothing bad happens when drug addicts start dealing the thing they're addicted to, right? Buckle up, because it isn't Monday anywhere in the world right now!

We also have a guest this week, comedian Bryan Cook (@BryanCooking on Twitter) swung by for a real baptism by fire into the I'M FROM THE INTERNET extended universe.

Winslow got a pretty good interview this week too, check it out: https://canvasrebel.com/meet-winslow-dumaine/

Phenazepam is a powerful benzodiazepine drug that was invented in Soviet Russia as a way of tranquilizing mental patients and helping alcoholics work through withdrawal. So of course when Something Awful's The Crackhead Clubhouse subforum learns about it they can't wait to ruin their lives with it! Folks, there are some real rough chuckles.
