For a while we have struggled to come up with anything to add about All The Horrors: after all, you live here too! That's when it hit us: that's the point. You live here too!

You live here too!!

Anime Sickos ·

2026/01/28

Aaron and Vince from Kame House Party join the Sickos to talk about Dragonball Daima, a new Dragonball anime we somehow barely heard about. Turns out it's great! A little cartoon devil from Halloween turns all the Dragonball characters into muppet babies so they can sell more anime figures. There's a hollow earth where robot bugs make you do puzzles. It's great.

242: The Chair Company Episode

Anime Sickos ·

2026/01/14

The Sickos go absolutely nuts over our favorite guy Tim Robinson and his unbelievable new comedy/thriller show The Chair Company. To watch this show is like watching a master martial artist transcend his physical limits and learn how to shoot energy beams. Students of comedy must understand what he is doing here...this is an all-time talent at work

Uh oh! Computer parts cost a million dollars now and Crucial is just straight up not making products for consumers anymore!

Plus, Tom goes nuts about how he set up a household media server (and you can, too!)

Anime Sickos ·

2025/12/17

For too long the noble podcaster, the last moral profession left on earth, has been subject to countless indignities and hateful vexations. Tom and guest co-Sicko Riley Hopkins thus present The Podcaster's Bill of Rights, a list of 19 inalienable rights that restores dignity and respect to the honorable "podcaster." This shit is the law now. The Second Amendment is we get to have a gun

Tom's Record Club: Bergtatt by Ulver

Anime Sickos ·

2025/11/26

UNLOCKED FOR NON-PATRONS: We get lost and die in the pitiless troll-infested woods of ancient Norway as we discuss the black metal classic Bergtatt: Et Eeventyr I 5 Capitler by Ulver. This band was a group of fuckin teens trying to recreate the otherworldly, ice-cold brutality of their country's folk traditions and somehow they kinda got there. Tom is famously a metal disliker, but Josh's passion for the stuff paired with his endless metal fun facts made this a worthwhile listen! Check it out!

Anime Sickos ·

2025/11/05

It's been four years since the Sickos covered One Piece, and a lot has happened since then. Tom and Guest co-Sicko Marquez are current on One Piece and ready to yap about all the latest developments in this incredible comic book. A lot of it stupid. A lot of it is goofy. But mostly? It kick ass and make us cry. We know this may hold little appeal to non-One Piece fans, but for the fellow freaks this episode is a rip-roarin delight

Anime Sickos ·

2025/10/29

Ed Zitron, the guy on the internet who is always saying that this AI shit is a stupid grift that makes no financial sense, goes guesto mode. Turns out this AI shit is a stupid grift that makes no financial sense! Plus, we talk about the fraught psychosexual politics of a world made up of living cars, and gasp over Ed's very passionate opinions about Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

235: The Tatami Galaxy Episode

Anime Sickos ·

2025/10/22

Tom and guest co-Sicko MinovskyArticle sing the praises of the incredible 2010 anime The Tatami Galaxy. If you watch one anime in your life, I recommend this one. This is an anime that feels like a novel, that revels in the richness of language, that understands the abyss of anxiety, and that will make you a genius to watch. This is the kind of show that tricks you into thinking anime is good

Anime Sickos ·

2025/09/10

Tom joins Casey Toney and Mike Migdall from GUTTER to experience a new dimension in stupid bullshit your chair can do at the movie theater: "4DX," an insane gimmick in which your seat violently jostles you and sprays water in your face. It is so, so stupid and distracting and is also the single best time you can have in a movie theater. Hear Casey and Mike on GUTTER: https://www.gutter.show/

229: The Sickos Eat Eleven Insane Sandwiches

Anime Sickos ·

2025/08/06

The Sickos are tea sandwich guys now. We made, ate, and reviewed 11 insane sandwiches with such inexplicable ingredients as "onion, mayo, and parsley," "radish, butter, and parsley," and "salami, mayo, and grapefruit." It sounds like these would suck ass but tea sandwiches are bugged and somehow roll back around to being great. Listen to our sicko sandwich journey.

Patrick Cosmos goes guesto mode! We discuss his new album Future National Sports, how weird it is to self-promote independent art in hell times, the idiotic appeal of being a vinyl guy, and what it's like to constantly have to go to physical therapy all the time.

227: Posting Sucks Now

Anime Sickos ·

2025/07/16

Folks, we have been trying for ages to get enough raw material for a classic posting episode but it just isn't happening. The well is dry. The thing about the posts is that now, they suck ass. Everyone is stuck in a rhetorical quagmire, nothing new is being introduced into the ecosystem, and the freaks who previously provided goofy spectacle are now very scary as they are all now allowed and encouraged to publicly engage in Nazi thought. We hate it! Thanks to Cohen Edenfield for being this
