What happens when Disney magic meets Final Fantasy? This week we dive into Kingdom Hearts, a game where Donald Duck and Goofy wield magic and swords, but we're asking the real question: what if they rolled up as a biker gang instead? Imagine Mickey leading “The Magic Kingdom MC,” Cloud as the brooding alcoholic mechanic, and Maleficent running a rival gang called "The Heartless Hog Crankers". It's part game review, part fever dream, and entirely not enough talk about a crackhead Goofy in a bandana.Super Garbage Day DiscordSuper Garbage Day PatreonB-Ross's Twitch StreamVanfernal's Retro Stream ShowSuper Garbage Day YouTubeSupport the showShow Links: https://linktr.ee/supergarbagedayHosted by: B-Ross, Vanfernal, and Mr. Miller Produced and edited by: B-Ross Email us at: supergarbageday@gmail.com

In April this year the UK Supreme Court ruled that the legal definition of a “woman” excludes trans women. Then — apparently celebrating her years-long TERFdom — JK Rowling tweeted an image of herself on a yacht, smoking a cigar, and captioned it with “I love it when a plan comes together.” The question we're looking at today is: was it Rowling who changed or was it the world that changed? Matt Bernstein joins us to trace Rowling's radicalization journey, and discuss how we've ended up with a bunch of British women who want to brand themselves as liberal, but are socially regressive in basically every way.Our guest Matt Bernstein can be found online @mattxiv.

When fitness influencer Ashton Hall's absurd morning routine went viral a few weeks ago, I was… moved. The hours-long skincare, gym, and journaling ritual felt like an American Psycho-inspired metrosexual fever dream — one peppered with shocking misogyny and profound loneliness. Hall's viral moment felt like a tipping in point in “alpha male” influencer culture, or the content ecosystem of men teaching boys what it means to be men. The further down the rabbit hole I went, the weirder it got — and between scammy financial incentives and an authoritarian take on gender, I began to understand why so many of these influencers are Trump supporters, and how they're teaching their viewers to follow suit. Most disturbing is the message that underpins almost all alpha male content: a life well-lived is one lived alone. COME SEE A BIT FRUITY LIVE! Tickets are on sale here.
