The Outliers

Ok kids we almost lost this episode to technical difficulties. But it was salvaged. So keep that in mind if ya hear some pops and fades... On the menu this week: Delayed video games, some Shenmue 3 impressions, streamers and their influence on smaller games, then we close out with some good ol' Marvel MCU stuff and whats going on with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

We are back! And officially kicking off 2020 with one hell of a show! Last week we weren't able to post an episode because of some serious health issues going on with one half of the team. And we do apologize for that. First time in 150 episodes! This week we're making up for time lost with a huge show starting off with Jay and Silent Bob Reboot Roadshow recap, a dive into CES tech and Alienware's Concept UFO and some new Samsung Galaxy S20 details, and we wrap with some long overdue impressions and take ways from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

The holidays are just about over and it's time to bring in the new year! We have a unique list of 2019 things that left an impression on us, a look at some of the greatest anime over the last decade or so, and we wrap it up with the story of Chelsea FC's road to the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final. Happy New year everyone, see you in 2020!

We're back and we're live and its time to talk about The Game Awards 2019! Lots of big reveals and winners this year so we're diving in to all the latest news with takeaways, impressions, and more from the show!

Happy Holidays everyone! It's gonna be a throwback week to some more classic Fanmob content. Going through some old files and found this DC Animation gem with our former co-host Jumma Jahdid. We're covering Wonder Woman, Batman, Justie League, Aquaman, and all sorts of great animated superhero movies. This was our 3rd podcast episode we ever recorded from back in 2012, so the audio quality is not the same as our usual stuff, but it is more listenable and is definitely very informative blast from the past!

This weeks episode is a great discussion on representation in media. We focus on video games and go from there. Unfortunately we had a serious snafu and had to cut the episode shorter than usual. Still, this one is some good stuff.

While everyone is on candy overload from Halloween we're over here celebrating The Fiend's big win at Crown Jewel! Following up with our last episode we pick up with the conclusion of WWE's Crown Jewel event and discuss the aftermath. Lots of gaming news in the back half of the show with Death Stranding reviews, Telltale's The Walking Dead, Red Dead Redemption 2 coming to PC, and more. Wondering what is up with Deadspin and Kotaku? We are too. So we got you covered!

Happy Halloween everyone! We're bringing you some local scares this week with San Jose's most haunted places just in time for All Hallows Eve. And in keeping with the fright night theme we take a deep dive into the WWE's immortal slasher The Fiend! Will Seth Rollins pull it off and end The Fiend once and for all at Crown Jewel? It's time to break it all down with The Knowledge as the anticipation builds for their next match!

Both Outliers have seen Joker and the verdict is in: GUILTY. Of what you ask? Find out on this weeks almost-swallowed-up-by-Skype episode! Since it's the spooky season we have a festive rec in the offerings up front in the form of #inktober. So many great artists are producing amazing art for the yearly art challenge and we are there to see it all. Couldn't get by without mentioning Blizzard and the recent mess they are in. Its also the beginning of the fall anime season too! So much goodness to cover during fall, don't miss it!

We're starting the scary season off early this year! This week's episode started off with a couple offerings that were... seasonally appropriate. But we ended up recording an hour long, in depth discussion on the horror movie genre and where so many of the movies you love fit in to that broad swath of fear based entertainment. It's all about scary movies, books, Junji Ito manga and more.
