41. Magick Is Real (and Praxis)
01:28:00Magic is the art of illusion and sleight of hand. Magick (pronounced "muh-gick") is the term for discussing real world sorcery among those whose know The Art. Today's episode falls squarely in the latter, as we explore a short-lived thread dedicated to spellcasting and fortunetelling in the leftist shitposting subforum of C-SPAM. What qualifications do we have in the world of metaphysics? Well, Winslow makes tarot decks and Jay read The Dresden Files in college so we won't be summoning homunculi any time soon but we're certainly summoning up trouble with this episode!Bumper MusicAmerica - You Can Do MagicThe Lovin' Spoonful - Do You Believe In MagicSantana - Black Magic WomanOlivia Newton John - MagicThe Cars - MagicScreamin' Jay Hawkins - I Put A Spell On YouYou can review this episode's document with sources at https://docs.google.com/document/d/14tx0ydfP9RO_Its70z8qlu7o2dbz7uwm0FDVRGg_LxU/edit?usp=sharingFor inquiries, contact the show directly at IFTIpod@gmail.comCreated and Hosted by:Winslow Dumaine - www.winslowdumaine.com/Jay Brandstetter - linktr.ee/jaybrandstetterPO Box 2750Ventor City, NJ 08406Produced and Edited by:Steve Brown - linktr.ee/killhamsterIntro and Outro music is "in failure" by steveisbroke off of their album "steve and his week of wonders", used with permission. https://steveisbroke.bandcamp.com/album/steve-and-his-week-of-wondersThis program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.

Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden (Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa) (Part One)
01:12:21This episode is canon. When crowdfunding blew up in the early 2010s, it seemed like a new golden age of media was upon us: dormant franchises were given long-awaited spiritual successors and small creators were given resources to chase their dreams and make media that would never be greenlit by a studio. One of these early success stories was Barkley 2* and today we're going to talk about its creation and how Kickstarter allowed a humble Something Awful goon the opportunity to create The Greatest Game of All Time.*The Magical Realms of Tír na nÓg: Escape from Necron 7 - Revenge of Cuchulainn: The Official Game of the Movie - Chapter 2 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGaBumper music:Aphex Twin - Bucephalus Bouncing BallRun DMC - BounceQuad City DJs - Space JamKurtis Blow - BasketballYou can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/Barkley2PodDocFor inquiries, contact the show directly at IFTIpod@gmail.comCreated and Hosted by:Winslow Dumaine - www.winslowdumaine.com/Jay Brandstetter - linktr.ee/jaybrandstetterPO Box 2750Ventor City, NJ 08406Produced and Edited by:Steve Brown - linktr.ee/killhamsterIntro and Outro music is "in failure" by steveisbroke off of their album "steve and his week of wonders", used with permission. https://steveisbroke.bandcamp.com/album/steve-and-his-week-of-wondersThis program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.38.

Ponygoons (Part One)
01:09:39My Little Pony. Three little words that can have wildly different connotations across the internet thanks to wildly unexpected popularity and fandom of 2010's My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. In this week's episode, we learn about the origin of the phenomenon and how Something Awful reacts to some of their own going against the flow and assuring everyone "no, really, it's a good show!"This week we're joined by Mike Carrozza Linktr.ee/mikecarrozza @mikecarrozza on Twitter and instagram Comedy album: Cherubic Podcasts: Am I The Bolcast? and We Didn’t Get a RoseYou can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/PonygoonsPodDocFor inquiries, contact the show directly at IFTIpod@gmail.comCreated and Hosted by:Winslow Dumaine - www.winslowdumaine.com/Jay Brandstetter - linktr.ee/jaybrandstetterPO Box 2750Ventor City, NJ 08406Produced and Edited by:Steve Brown - linktr.ee/killhamsterIntro and Outro music is "in failure" by steveisbroke off of their album "steve and his week of wonders", used with permission. https://steveisbroke.bandcamp.com/album/steve-and-his-week-of-wondersThis program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.36. The Maremma Scenario
01:41:23Dogs are great! But not every dog is right for every person, and nothing illustrates that better than The Maremma Scenario. Don't worry, nothing bad happens to the dog but I can't say the same for everyone else in this saga.We recorded this one last September so please excuse any temporal continuity errors.You can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/MaremmaPodDocFor inquiries, contact the show directly at IFTIpod@gmail.comCreated and Hosted by:Winslow Dumaine - www.winslowdumaine.com/Jay Brandstetter - linktr.ee/jaybrandstetterPO Box 2750Ventor City, NJ 08406Produced and Edited by:Steve Brown - linktr.ee/killhamsterIntro and Outro music is "in failure" by steveisbroke off of their album "steve and his week of wonders", used with permission. https://steveisbroke.bandcamp.com/album/steve-and-his-week-of-wondersBumper music:Masashi Hamauzu - Salmon's ThemeButthole Surfers - Jingle of a Dog's CollarThis program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.35. Secret Pheromone Extraction Method
01:19:09It's been a long wait, and we return bearing a terrible secret. The secret pheromone extraction method may not actually help you attract FEMALES but it does make for a fascinating case study in how misinformation spreads online. This week, I really wish The Mengele Effect had a different name and diva cups make their first appearance.You can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/GoonCumPodDocFor inquiries, contact the show directly at IFTIpod@gmail.comCreated and Hosted by:Winslow Dumaine - www.winslowdumaine.com/Jay Brandstetter - linktr.ee/jaybrandstetterPO Box 2750Ventor City, NJ 08406Produced and Edited by:Steve Brown - linktr.ee/killhamsterIntro and Outro music is "in failure" by steveisbroke off of their album "steve and his week of wonders", used with permission. https://steveisbroke.bandcamp.com/album/steve-and-his-week-of-wondersThis program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.
