Huge props to the artists, and everyone else, in the creation of this massive episode. It was a fascinating journey!

Jason Youngberg

Good review. But why no mention of the "Satanic Panic" which is still happening in different forms today?

My only comment I take from Deadwood: "I don't like the Pinkertons."

It's always nice to hear about the history of a cultural form, and be able to see the dynamics underlying it. Love the video. And.... can you please please please choose a different intro music for the games videos? This section is sonically grating, comes on really suddenly at a high perceived volume, and always has me scrambling to hit forward buttons so I don't have to deal with it. I'm sure there are lots of people who are stimulus-sensitive who are put off by it.
