    Everyone that made cracked.com a “name” left to do other things. “Some more news” is one, I believe some other folks run DnD channels, etc

      David Wong wrote a great book, a decent sequel, and then went batshit insane.

      I can’t remember his username, but he did an AMA on reddit, and just kept using the account for years. Just running around being completely unhinged and starting slapfights with people over the dumbest shit.

        Well it’s a pretty… bold choice to as a white guy pick Wong for a penname. While I always thought he had insightful things to say on the podcast, I’m not suprised he has some spicy takes.

        That’s actually a trilogy, I have the third book sitting next to me. It’s called “What The Hell Did I Just Read.” Pretty decent so far.

      DoB and Soren have a podcast they do together iirc, but I don’t remember what it was called. I think Swaim does stuff with IGN now and runs his own company?

        Quick Question With Soren and Daniel, it’s great.
        Cody does Some More News which features Katie regularly and is also great.

          That was the name, thank you! Gonna look up Dan and Soren’s podcast again now so I can catch up lol. Also loved Cody’s video on deconstructing Jordan Peterson, that was the first I heard of him since he left Cracked.
