Topicocalypse

This is it ladies and gentlemen. This is the final episode of the internet's only podcast. On the first part of our final episodes, we have the entire crew, spanning from all of the many decades of the podcast back together to discuss the American workforce and why so many people are leaving it. While COVID has displaced many, has it also given them time to think about their lives and what exactly they want to do with them. A recent American worker survey suggests that this is the beginning of many changes. We discuss all of this and more on this episode of Topicocalypse. If you have any thoughts on what we're talking about, please send us an email at humannequinmedia@gmail.com and we'd love to talk about your thoughts on the show. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

We're sitting around talking about shows from Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBO Max and other great outlets. You'll notice a lack of regular tv programing on here.

Welcome back Topicocalypse listeners. We have a few big announcements to make in the coming days, but for now, here's an episode that was lost in the vault. Big Dawg wants to talk about cancel culture. It's happening all over the place. Everybody from minor celebrities to absolute nobodies are having to watch what they say and not verbalize their beliefs out of fear of being the victim of a witch hunt. If the media doesn't destroy you, your friends and family certainly will. Nobody is safe in this era of the socially conscious. We talk about Joe Rogan offending Spotify workers, people disowning their families, and riots all over the country. We hope you enjoy! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

What's up ladies, gentlemen, and everybody in between. Topicocalypse returns with a different type of episodes for your listening pleasure. I had the honor of sitting down with Jon Doyle and Jason Maddison of Lost in Cult Publishing to talk about their amazing venture called [lock-on], a brand new and very beautiful gaming journal currently looking for funding on Kickstarter. This amazing product features some prolific voices from all corners of the gaming world, including John Linneman of Digital Foundry, Rishi Alwani of IGN India, Cade Onder of Screen Rant, and so many others. This first volume talks about the past, present, and future of the Playstation, "all whilst featuring thought-provoking and insightful content about current affairs and the wider gaming sphere." Not only do we talk about this amazing journal, but we also dive into a conversation about game preservation, the all digital future, and the future of the single player campaign.

Welcome back fans. We have officially returned for another episode of Topicocalypse. It's strange how in COVID-19 times everybody and their brother has started a podcast, yet, I haven't had a lot of time to maintain ours. I'm working on fixing that, but in the meantime . . . here is a brand new episode for those sweet sweet ears of yours. On this episode of Topicocalypse, we're talking the Playstation 5 vs Xbox Series X. Brett is a Sony fanboy and I am a Microsoft fanboy.

We played: Alan Wake (and American Nightmare), Quantum Break, Halo Wars (with some discussion of Halo Wars 2), Forza Horizon 4, Resident Evil VII and The Last of Us Part II.

On this episode of the Internet's only podcast, I'm sitting down with my brother to talk about some religious things that I did not know about. Justin schools me on the ida of Yawehism vs a Universal God. How do our learned and inherited perceptions of God change the way we look at spirituality? What does all of this mean?

The one shot episodes are back! Or perhaps it'll be more than one if I end up reviewing the entire series, but on this episode of Topicocalypse, we're doing things a little different. Instead of four (sometimes five) idiots sitting around a table talking about things they may or may not know anything about, I will be reviewing an episode of an anime series that is very near and dear to my heart . . . The Big O. I’ve been taking some time lately, to go back and watch the anime series I grew up with. As a novel writer, going back to my inspirations has been the key to “reawakening” my creativity, especially in these hectic times, where just stepping out your front door is like going on a walk with sorrow and depression. That being said, the noir-like world of The Big O has been a welcome distraction from the strange and terrible things going on in our society. Turning on the box-set blu ray instead of the news has proven to be the best thing I’ve done in the past few weeks. I hope you enjoy! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

What's up family? We're back with another special episode by some friends of ours. On this episode, Ryan, Kyle, Keith, and Travis are tackling something incredibly relevant today's culture. They chat about cultural narratives and the importance of meaning. Kyle and Travis bring up the exchange system of likes on Instagram. Keith breaks down how the idea of Self came about. Ryan throws out the idea that our identity is the real issue. There's a lot to this episode, so we may come back to this soon.

What's up fans? Welcome back to another episode of Topicocalypse, the only podcast on the internet. There's a lot of strange things going on in the world today, and we want you to know that we are here for your listening pleasure. On this episode, we are diving into the concept of individualism vs collectivism in the era of COVID-19. Has the concept of the individual really been set aside for this virus? What is going on with all of the social media outrage? We're joined by Brian Wegner of the Super BS Gamescast and the Big Jim Pederson to discuss our thoughts. All of this and more on this episode of Topicocalypse. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

What's up podcast lovers. We're back, and we're doing things a little different today. Instead of listening to four idiots talk about things they may or may not know anything about, we're going to play a podcast belonging to some friends of ours. Welcome to the What About This Podcast! On the first episode ever, Travis, Ryan, Keith and Kyle consider whether there is such thing as objective beauty. Together, we discuss how we judge beauty, where our ideas of beauty might come from, if taste is the same thing as beauty, and the differences between subjectivity, objectivity, and relativity.

What's up everybody? Welcome back to Topicocalypse . . . the only podcast on the internet, especially during quarantine. Nobody else is making podcasts. Weird right? If you're feeling like you're drowning in coronavirus news, we have a nice distraction for you. Brett has put together a list of the best films (in his opinion) to come out of the '90s, and we certainly do love movies here on Topicocalypse. We're talking about everything from Arnold's run in the Terminator to Sylvester's Demolition Man, The Matrix, Bad Boys, Rush Hour, and so many more great films. The '90s was an amazing time to be alive! What are some of your favorites that we didn't discuss? Send us an email at humannequinmedia@gmail.com. We would love to revisit this topic one day.

Ladies, gentlemen, and all other folks out there, welcome back to Topicocalypse . . . the only podcast on the internet. We've been quarantined, but we haven't been silenced. On this episode, we're talking about a little virus you've probably never heard of . . . the Coronavirus a.k.a. COVID-19. There's a lot of fear surrounding this virus, but very few facts (or at least none that are talked about). Between the news, friends, family, social media, and doctors, there is so much information, but very few answers to the questions people actually want and need the answers to. That being said, we have taken it upon ourselves to - for what might be the first time - do some research, hunt down some facts, and find reliable statistics pertaining to COVID-19 so that we can answer some of those burning questions being asked by both you and us. After the science and statistics, we'll walk you through some of the most talked about myths and conspiracies surrounding this virus, debunking what we can and ultimately leading to more questions. If there is something we've overlooked, or something we're wrong about, please send us an email at humannequinmedia@gmail.com. We hope you are staying safe and entertained in this time of social isolation. As always, enjoy!

It's been a big year for television and streaming services. Not only have they been at war with one another, but they've also produced a lot of really great content. In fact, we'd say that the content on streaming services was a lot better than what we were seeing in movie theaters this year. On this episode of Topicocalypse, we're going through our top five favorite shows of 2019. We explore the offerings of Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, Hulu, Disney Plus, Cable and other great outlets. What did we watch, and what did we think of it? Find out on this episode of the Internet's only podcast.

It's that time of year again! We've been listening to everything we could get our hands on since January, and now we've gathered together to discuss our top albums of the year.

On this exciting episode of Topicocalypse, we're back, and we're visiting a galaxy far far away. That's right, we combed through the news and found nothing but Star Wars. We talk Disney Plus, The Mandalorian, and our expectations for Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker. We also switch gears away from the film universe and dive into the video game universe. EA just released Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Why did they put such a late embargo on reviews? We speculate on this, and talk about where the game sits in the greater Star Wars cannon. That's right, it is cannon. We also make some Mass Effect jokes . . . so tune in. All of this and more on this action packed episode of Topicocalypse. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

On this action packed episode of Topicocalypse, we're exploring education . . . more specifically, is the pursuit of knowledge lost on modern kids? We are living in an era where the laws of the land are dictated by YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, and whiney/opinion based news (we're talking about you Huffington Post). Gone are the days when kids wanted to be engineers, police officers, and astronauts when they grow up. Instead, every kid wants to be an influencer or a professional streamer. We dive into these ideas, while wondering if this new landscape is moving us further and further away from practical knowledge or the ability to comprehend deep ideas.

What's up webheads? As you all know Spider-Man has been the topic of much debate, with Disney wanting more money and Sony not wanting to play ball. Does Disney really need the money? We don't think so, but still, we would love to see Spider-Man continue is arc in the MCU. We're breaking down the news of Spider-Man leaving the MCU, and our thoughts on other Marvel properties and storylines. Update: Spider-Man is back in the MCU.

Ladies and Gentlemen . . . and everybody in between, welcome to Topicocalypse, the only podcast on the Internet. On this episode, our resident Meme Lord Brett Crews asks if we think Americans are overworked? This gets us into a discussion about why employees are afraid to ask for time off and why employers don't cultivate an environment that encourages life outside of work. We also dive into the European model, where taking time off is mandatory. This ultimately leads us to ask, would taking some time off work make Americans happier and less hostile towards one another?

This time, we're joined by our good friend Keith Garton (of What About This fame) for a topic that only Danial so-called-nice guy would bring to the table.
