    49 The Fandom Grievance—Grifters

    If you have an internet connection (which you do, otherwise you’re reading this in the far future via gravitational waves or sophons or something), you’re probably aware that a significant portion of any fandom is wet garbage on a hot day—and we’re not just describing the smell at your local convention. And as we’ve been pointing out for the past several decades here on Bullshido, where there are sad, pathetic losers, there are the people who make their livelihoods preying on them by validating their garbage opinions. No bro, it’s not your fault nobody invites you to the panel discussion, “they” are out to get you.In this episode, Phrost and Jack discuss a few examples of these people, such as “The Critical Drinker”, explain the history of the weaponization and monitization of nerds, incels, and related losers, and try not to cut back on the profanity… and fail at that, and then fail at bleeping it out in the audio, because fuck it.

    48 Aaaaaaahhhh (yes, that’s the title of this one)

    This may be the most overtly political episode of the show, so feel free to skip it if that’s not your thing. If it is, LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE. 5 STARS. FOR JUSTICE or whatever.In this episode, we cover:* The attempted assassination of former President Trump and associated law enforcement/security failures * The susceptibility of the American public to hero narratives * Just how stupid the “sport” of two dudes slapping each other is * Phrost predicts Biden will drop out “within 72 hours” (which he did) * Cancel culture, and the revival of 20+ year old Bullshido forums threads * Jack keeps Phrost from getting himself canceled by bringing up the “hard-R” and being wildly wrong about it.This wasn’t supposed to be an actual podcast episode, but we decided to release it anyway because it’s been a week. As we’re typing this, it just won’t stop. We don’t even want to talk about politics this overtly, but damn… Full video available for contributing members on the forums and patrons on Patreon.https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-48-raw-108593334?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

    47 Into the Manosphere

    Not exactly a deep dive, kind of shallow… just the tip, really.In this episode, Phrost and Jack do a short dive into the “Manosphere” —the corner of the internet that targets emotionally vulnerable dudes (mostly younger), and exploits that vulnerability to sell them garbage supplements, “how to get a date” programs, and much worse.Show NotesNotable, if not noteworthy people mentioned in this podcast include:* Leeja Miller * Andrew Tate * Sneako * Nick Fuentes * Aiden RossAlso, in this episode you might notice Phrost or Jack reference “Drake”, who was in fact not the (alleged) groomer/Canadian hip hop star, but actually Drake_2112, one of our Twitch subscribers hanging out with us while we recorded the epsiode—which we do live, on Thursdays, semi-weekly, on Twitch.tv/Bullshido.Video of the show available to subscribers on Twitch, supporters on Patreon, or contributing members on our forums right here. Audio version available on nearly all platforms.

    43 Dungeons and Dragons and Viruses

    Of all the podcasts we’ve done, this one definitely went the furthest off the rails. Dr. Jason Goldsmith (MD, PhD) and attorney Dante Bradley, join us to discuss the massive drama and BS in the… *checks notes* world of Dungeons and Dragons. For those of you who haven’t heard about D&D since the 80’s, the game has grown in popularity to ridiculous levels in the past decade with hundreds of podcasts, several live streams like Critical Role with millions of weekly followers, pop culture references in shows like Stranger Things, and a big budget movie staring Chris Pine. In the middle of all this, the parent companies that makes the official game, Wizards of the Coast (owned by Hasbro), attempted to milk that cash cow a bit too hard, triggering the biggest nerd meltdown since Gamergate.This meltdown and the reasons behind it are what we actually do discuss for the first part of this episode before derailing into the latest on the subject of vaccines, boosters, pandemics, and the endless BS coming from every direction on that topic as well, because we fuckin’ do what we want around here.Host: * Phrost: @PhrostGuests:* Dr. Jason Goldsmith (MD, PhD, WRX STi) @SifuJason * Attorney Dante BradleyLinks:Washington Post: The OGL Controversy ExplainedListen here below or look for The Art of Fighting BS podcast wherever you find podcasts (iTunes, Google, Spotify, etc.) Full, unedited video available to VIP members or Patreon supportersEpisode:Bullshido · 43 Dungeons and Dragons and Viruses
