I'M FROM THE INTERNET
Minisode: Martin Random Goes To Washington
Martin Random was the handle of a well-known teller of tall tales in the early days of the Something Awful forums, and while I personally am not a fan of him or his writing a minisode seems like the perfect excuse to talk about one of his less scatological and more far-reaching stories. Today we talk about Martin Random's made-up stories about working as an agent in the Secret Service and witnessing all the quirky goings-on amongst 2006 America's favorite bunch of war criminals.

01:14:48||Ep. 60Resuming the Danganronpa Let's Play saga, we're working through the cases and we touch on the different extant fandoms and communities that helped popularize Danganronpa. For this series we are joined by horror and anime expert Vanessa Guerrero from Game Grumps, who are currently playing through the Danganronpa series.https://x.com/nessguerrerohttps://www.twitch.tv/Nesguerrerohttps://www.instagram.com/snesguerreroThe document with expanded show topics is available for review and comment at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p-tyrzJOXF0m4lIrL49EW-1jIveX-4j2y14UNrnYG_Y/edit?tab=t.0You can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/SADanganronpaPodDocFor 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.59. Let's Play Danganronpa! (Part One)
01:24:32||Ep. 59When Something Awful poster Orenronen began translating the relatively obscure Japanese visual novel Danganronpa in 2011, it was considered too weird to get an official English localization. Over a decade later, Danganronpa is a multimillion-selling franchise and one of the most successful visual novel franchises in the west. It's one of the most impactful sagas to come out of Something Awful and also our first foray into the Let's Play subforum, so why not pay tribute to both by doing an exploration of the plot of Danganronpa in tandem? Jay has played the entire game and a good chunk of the sequel, now he just has to summarize an infamously complicated and weird story from a different language and culture in an audio medium.For this series we are joined by horror and anime expert Vanessa Guerrero from Game Grumps, who are currently playing through the Danganronpa series. https://x.com/nessguerrerohttps://www.twitch.tv/Nesguerrerohttps://www.instagram.com/snesguerreroThe document with expanded show topics is available for review and comment at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p-tyrzJOXF0m4lIrL49EW-1jIveX-4j2y14UNrnYG_Y/edit?tab=t.0You can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/SADanganronpaPodDocFor 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.58. Something Awful References in Video Games (Minisode)
01:12:55||Ep. 58The summer of gaming is drawing to a close, so here's a fun look at the times Something Awful showed up in commercial video games over the years. It's a good glimpse at how Something Awful was viewed as a comedy gaming site during its height and how many people in the games industry read the front page. The Zybourne Clock episode is coming up so this has some fun foreshadowing for that as well.The document with expanded show topics is available for review and comment at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p-tyrzJOXF0m4lIrL49EW-1jIveX-4j2y14UNrnYG_Y/edit?tab=t.0You can review this episode's document with sources at https://tinyurl.com/SAGamingRef1PodDocFor 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.57. Returning From 100,000 Hours of Probation
01:06:12||Ep. 57100,000 hours of probation is one of the worst punishments the administrators of Something Awful can mete out to problem posters. This episode, we talk about what it takes to be banished to the Phantom Zone for almost three presidential elections and one recent newsworthy example of someone returning from their 4,166 days of exile.You 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/100kProbeSAPodDocFor 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.Show Announcement - Potential Big Changes in 2025

01:03:54||Ep. 56Sans Undertale! Now that I have your attention: Somebody who worked on Undertale was a Something Awful poster.

Goons Cancel Scott Cawthon By Accident (Part Two)
47:30||Ep. 55Resuming from last week: a discussion about shitty indie game developers in the Rapidly Going Deaf subforum of the Something Awful forums is about to unearth Scott Cawthon's political donations, and just ten hours later it would become a trending topic on Twitter.

Goons Cancel Scott Cawthon By Accident (Part One)
49:05||Ep. 54The children's horror game series Five Nights At Freddy's turns 10 years old this month, and what better way to celebrate than continuing this show's accidental running theme of game developers being shitty people? You might have heard that Scott Cawthon, the creator of Five Nights At Freddy's, is a Republican donor who stepped out of the public limelight when his political donations were brought to light. What you might not know is that the Something Awful forums were where these donations were originally dug up.

UNLOCKED: Dave Barry: 90s Influencer (Patreon Bonus Ep)
01:07:55||Ep. 53Steve's on vacation so enjoy another freebie from the Patreon vault! We're talking about syndicated newspaper humor columnist Dave Barry and his early internet exploits. On the one hand, he's probably the reason I know about Mr T Ate My Balls. On the other hand, he's a Libertarian who got teased off of his own Usenet fan group for ranting about his computer being Jewish.Check out Producer Steve's new album at https://soundcloud.com/killhamster/sets/method-to-the-sadnessAnd his Defcon track: https://soundcloud.com/killhamster/rogue-projectYou can review this episode's document with sources (and pictures) at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gYdbRTHX1YfKeAhcYyUwr8ormO5wKLjgrXgpgGGr9HY/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.
