197: The Severance Episode

Anime Sickos ·

2024/07/31

Unbelieveable! The Sickos discuss an actual anime: the 2022 Apple TV+ live action thriller Severance starring Adam Scott. This shit is so good. We basically just go nutty over how much we love this show. Some spoilers but we leave the finale and the big twists unrevealed. Also we got a fun sketch with the Worst of All Possible Worlds boys. It's a banger

Anime Sickos ·

2024/07/24

The Sickos discuss Joe's recent layoff, and how getting laid off is fine, and it's easy to get a new job, and there WILL be a future, and you can depend on it, and it's easy and smart to feel confident in the future, and it's all going to be so normal.

Anime Sickos ·

2024/07/17

A.J. Ditty from the Worst of All Possible Worlds podcast goes guesto mode! We learn how to act, why seeing your parents shot in the face would make you get all A's in acting school, visual novels, Elden Ring, and the joy of writing lore-heavy serialized interstitial skits to stick in the middle of your chat podcast.

194: The Sickos Examine the Perfect Pilot

Anime Sickos ·

2024/07/03

Sitcom pilots tend to suck ass. They have to do boring exposition and the characters haven't settled into a rhythm yet. Well what if we told you there existed a perfect comedy pilot. There does: the pilot for the 2005 Comedy Central series Stella, an episode so good it could have come from season four.

193: Best in Slot Jokes

Anime Sickos ·

2024/06/19

Comedy is an endless playground of creativity and innovation, but some jokes are so good that nothing could ever be better in its niche. We call these "Best in Slot" jokes and most of them are from 30 Rock, The Simpsons, and Venture Bros. Listen to us talk about them!

Anime Sickos ·

2024/06/12

Remy Siu, creative director of the excellent narrative game 1000xResist, goes guesto mode! We discuss how he & the game's writing staff put together a frankly staggering work that you WILL buy and play, how MMOs were more fun when they made zero concessions to the player, how to use lore for good instead of evil, why only geniuses appreciate Vinland Saga's farm arc, and generally jaw about art and process in a way that you will love.

Anime Sickos ·

2024/05/29

We've had too many high-concept episodes lately that require lots of thought and prep, so we just turned the mic on and had an hour of organic jawing. Just two buds hanging out folks. I think I heard somewhere that people like this sort of thing. Well, I sure hope it's true.

189: The Sickos Complain About AI

Anime Sickos ·

2024/05/15

This AI shit sucks so bad folks. We expand on what we found so distasteful about generative AI art and how much it would suck ass to see it expand into mainstream media. The joy of great art comes in contemplating the choices that went into it and what those choices represent. AI makes no choices and sucks ass. Listening to this episode is equivalent to a 4-year degree

186: Crawfish Comic Goes Guesto Mode

Anime Sickos ·

2024/04/03

Shevvy from the incredible comedy sensation Crawfish Comic goes guesto mode! We go nuts over how much we like Shevvy's work, and they explain the ethos and philosophy that leads to comics where a whale says "im a whale and even i think this is crasy." Culture today is a diseased mutant thing and Crawfish Comic is a beacon of purity and it kicks ass, this ep rules

Anime Sickos ·
