<p>SomethingAwful.com is one of the foundational websites of modern internet culture: the earliest memes, inside jokes, and modes of communication that grace and plague the internet today can trace their roots back to the sprawling forums of this illustrious website.</p><br><p>Hosted by Jay Brandstetter and Winslow Dumaine, this podcast dredges up the most notable threads from the depths of the forums. We delve into the absurd architecture of Groverhaus, explore the very beginning of 4Chan, the early days of master poster Dril, examine the discovery and ruination of Chris-Chan, and recount the day when the despised owner of the website, Richard “Lowtax“ Kyanka fought the disgraced filmmaker Uwe Boll in a boxing match, and more. We’re diving into the archives so you don’t have to.</p><br><p>Winslow Dumaine is a comedian and illustrator out of Chicago. He’s opened for Kyle Kinane, Dave Ross, and Sam Tallent, and toured with Derek Sheen. His debut work of fiction is <em>The Tarot Restless,</em> a hand illustrated deck of tarot cards and a book of short stories. His next work is a cooperative tabletop card game called <em>RESTLESS</em>, the discord for which is available <a href="https://linktr.ee/Winslowdumaine" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a>.</p><br><p>Jay Brandstetter is an internet historian and online content creator out of his hometown of Jacksonville, Florida. In addition to a lifetime of firsthand research on the Something Awful forums and elsewhere, he created the popular Twitter account "crazy ass moments in Something Awful history", has over 100,000 views on YouTube, and over 3 million on TikTok. His ongoing work is The Greymuzzle Archives, a series of long-form interviews of elder members of the furry fandom.</p><br><p>This program is not affiliated with or sponsored by Something Awful LLC or Jeffrey of YOSPOS.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
