How G4 Died | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 233

Please welcome Peter Pischke to the show. Peter is a freelance journalist whose latest work focuses-in on the slow-rolling demise of G4. Founded in 2002 and mothballed about a decade ago, G4 was once a vibrant television network dedicated to video games and nerd culture. Its contemporary revival, on the other hand, launched late last year and has been an abject failure by any metric. Peter's reporting suggests the end is nigh for G4 yet again, and he takes time to go behind the scenes into their "anti-sexism" rant that went viral earlier this year in particular, which he identifies as the death knell for the company. If you're interested in the behind-the-scenes machinations of the industry, this episode's for you.
