Wikipedia Channeled Through Mediocre "Comedians"
This podcast is basically Wikipedia and shallow anecdotes funneled through and produced by two guys who are unequally humorous (the Twins of comedy podcast duos) but both veer into cringe and shallowness far more than they don't. Speaking of cringeworthy moments, when they use terms like, "Clutch" and refer to things like a, "Flow state" just screams "Hello, fellow kids" coupled with a feigned expertise that ultimately insults the listener. I have infrequently been checking back in with this show since they began this venture, and the only thing that has changed is the audio quality and the editing kind of improved (some old episodes just cut out halfway through or are left unfinished). They still borrow the experiences of others for reference and frequently refer to Wikis and YouTube videos for their information. The recent Diablo episode really highlights a lot of what I'm complaining about. Neither of them seemed to know for certain in which game The Butcher appears, and the confessions of their personal experiences make it pretty clear that these are casual game players who only started getting more invested because of the easy-to-obtain carrot dangled by a career in content creation, where mediocrity is standard and grossly rewarded. Avoid this podcast. Go find one created by people who actually care about what they cover and have some actual authenticity. It will save you a great deal of time, and you will be rewarding more admirable efforts made in this space.Read full review »

I don’t always gravitate to nerd culture, but when I do, I sure love it when Jake and Holden take me through the gush, the minutiae, and the aftermath of those shows, games, and fads I hold near and dear.
