Welcome to the Gaming Roundtable podcast, your premier destination for all things gaming and entertainment. In this episode, the panel comprising Brian, Taylor, Crono, and Mark, embark on a journey through the latest buzz in the gaming world. We kick things off with a deep dive into Bungie's latest controversy. With plagiarism allegations confirmed, we discuss the implications on Bungie's new venture, Marathon, and what this means for the gaming industry at large. As fervent listeners of the gaming scene, we unpack the potential legal and commercial ramifications for Bungie and explore whether Marathon can still be a success story. Shifting gears to the DC Universe, we dissect the much-talked-about Superman trailer that has fans buzzing. With the Snyderverse drama now a thing of the past, what does the future hold for Superman under James Gunn's vision? We share our thoughts and hopes for the new era of the DCU and how it might just reinvent the superhero landscape. In the world of game reviews and industry politics, we shed light on the controversy surrounding "No Rest for the Wicked." How do review bombs affect indie developers, and what role does media coverage play in shaping public perception? As we navigate through these thorny issues, we offer insight into how developers can mitigate negative campaigns and maintain their creative integrity. Throughout the episode, we also share updates on the latest gaming releases, including new details about Borderlands 4, and anticipate what lies ahead in the gaming calendar. Tune in for a comprehensive discussion that's both entertaining and enlightening, whether you're a casual gamer or a die-hard fan.

Katie is a creative force, tech innovator, and passionate advocate for underrepresented voices in storytelling. With a career that spans Hulu, HBO Max, DC Universe, Dollar Shave Club, and more, she has been instrumental in building and launching some of the most iconic and disruptive brands in entertainment and media.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 15, 2025 is: impervious im-PER-vee-us adjective Impervious describes that which does not allow something (such as water or light) to enter or pass through. It is also used formally to mean “not bothered or affected by something.” Both senses of impervious are usually used with to. // The material is impervious to water. // The mayor seems impervious to criticism. See the entry > Examples: “All of this ups the already sky-high stakes for ‘Superman,' which relaunches the DC Universe under the direction of Gunn and Peter Safran. The film is the studio's best hope at fielding a billion-dollar blockbuster in 2025, but even the Man of Steel isn't impervious to box office Kryptonite.” — Rebecca Rubin, Variety, 17 Jan. 2025 Did you know? Finding your way through some words' etymologies can lead to surprising discoveries of origins that seemingly have little to do with their modern-day meanings. Impervious, which entered English in the early 1600s, is not one of those words—its history is entirely straightforward. The Latin ancestor of impervious is impervius, which adds the prefix im-, meaning “not,” to pervius, meaning “passable or penetrable.” Pervius in turn comes from per, meaning “through,” and via, meaning “way.” Impervious, it follows, describes things that don't allow a way through something, whether literally (as in “asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces that are impervious to rain”) or figuratively (as in “impervious to criticism/pressure”). The opposite of impervious, pervious, entered English at around the same time, but it is much less common.
The official trailer for “Superman” is finally here!

In this second installment of "IP State of the Union: Billion-Dollar Character Acquisitions," IP Goes Pop!® co-hosts Michael Snyder and Joseph Gushue explore goodwill—the invisible yet invaluable asset fueling iconic franchises. They break down how studios leverage brand loyalty and cultural impact when acquiring legendary IP, where the goal extends beyond box office numbers to long-term equity through merchandise, theme parks, and fan engagement. The hosts analyze three major franchises: Star Wars (examining whether George Lucas's goodwill continues to pay dividends as Disney shifts toward streaming), the DC Universe (discussing Warner Bros.' struggles despite owning Superman and Batman, and James Gunn's new vision), and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter (questioning whether public controversies and mixed expansions threaten the brand, and if HBO's upcoming reboot will revitalize or alienate the fanbase). Whether you're a casual moviegoer or die-hard fan, this episode transforms how you view the business of pop culture.
