In 2024, a video game podcast was recorded about history. This single piece of recorded audio, while seemingly benign, would have untold ramifications across the media landscape for the next century. In this text, we will be exploring those ramifications and comparing what media looked like before and after Left Trigger Right Trigger's History episode (LTRTH). Before we dig in, let's look at the episode itself. Here are the pertinent details:
David looks back. Giovanni sees the present. Greg can't see back far enough.

Greg here, hat in hand. I'd like to apologize for misusing the word toyetic. I used it as if it meant "toy-like" or "possessing the properties one might expect in a toy" but it actually means "potentially marketable as a toy." I made a mistake! Sometimes mistakes are made during the heat of the crucible of a podcast recording. I will strive to do better. Anyways!
In this episode, Giovanni delves the electronic ocean, David puts things on his reader device, Greg wants to make little doodads....OF HELL.
If you'd like to show your appreciation of this heartfelt apology, consider going to our Patreon where you can support us for as little as $1/month. Or let us know how you feel in the comments of your preferred podcatcher of choice.
