I'M FROM THE INTERNET
The Zybourne Clock (Part One)
This, my darling, is a legend. A legend many men and many women claim to have seen, understood, and known. A story about time travel which, ironically, has been largely lost to the sands of time. Until now.
This, darling, is The Zybourne Clock. The real Zybourne Clock. Johnny Cornfeld, not Johnny Fiveaces. The monolith, not the golden egg.
Buckle up, we're going to "Bookworld".
Extra special thanks to Fuego Fish from the Something Awful forums, who worked on The Zybourne Clock, for being my source on this episode. You can check out his fiction and ongoing work at http://plunderpress.com/
This week we are joined by video game expert Jeremy Kaplowitz, co-host of the Quorators podcast and co-founder of the video game satire site Hard Drive.

Duke's Bros Forever (Part One) with Vanessa Guerrero
01:20:32||Ep. 79Duke Nukem Forever spent 14 years in development. An entire generation of gamer dudes had their hopes dashed in 2011 when it finally released to mediocre reviews and backlash from players. Thanks to Something Awful's Duke Nukem Forever thread, we can re-live that fateful moment when a bunch of gamers realized that Capture The Babe is maybe a bit problematic now that they aren't teenagers anymore.In Part One we are on the eve of release, with true believers pushing back against an underwhelming demo. "Always bet on Duke" begins to take on increasingly desperate tones as release draws near.For this series we are joined by gaming expert Vanessa Guerrero from Game Grumps.https://x.com/nessguerrerohttps://www.twitch.tv/Nesguerrerohttps://www.instagram.com/snesguerreroYou 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/IFTIDukeNukeThemForeverPodDocBumper Music:Duke Nukem Forever Theme SongMegadeth - Duke NukemMotley Crue - Girls Girls GirlsAC/DC - Have A Drink On MeThe Crystal Method - Name of the GameFor 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.78.
