I'M FROM THE INTERNET

Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden (Chapter 1 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa) (Part One)

Ep. 39

This 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.

    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!Bumper Music:Nine Inch Nails - March of the PigsPig Destroyer - The Torture FieldsSlayer - Killing FieldsPink Floyd - Pigs (Three Different Ones)Fear Factory - Acres of SkinYou can review and comment on the document for expanded show topics at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p-tyrzJOXF0m4lIrL49EW-1jIveX-4j2y14UNrnYG_Y/edit?tab=t.0You can review this episode's document with sources (and pictures) at https://tinyurl.com/IFTIBushmanHogBloodDocFor 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.
