Do you know the story of the first time the Escapist Imploded, back in 2014? What if I told you that the Escapist, one of the most influential gaming websites and YouTube channels of all time, was founded by a visionary entrepreneur who was later ousted from his own company for defending Gamergate? And what if I told you that he was also the one who discovered Yahtzee Crowshaw, the creator of Zero Punctuation, and pioneered the modern gaming YouTube format? In this exclusive interview, Peter Pischke of CultureScape sits down with Alex Macris, the founder and former CEO of the Escapist, to reveal the untold story of how he built a gaming empire and lost it all for Gamergate. You'll learn: - How Alex Macris started the Escapist as a PDF magazine in 2005 and turned it into a multimillion-dollar media company - How he found and hired Yahtzee Crowshaw, the British comedian and critic who revolutionized video game reviews with his fast-talking, animated series Zero Punctuation - How he developed the Escapist's YouTube channel and introduced innovative shows like Extra Credits, Jimquisition, and MovieBob - How he faced backlash from the gaming industry and the media for supporting Gamergate, a consumer revolt against unethical journalism and censorship in video games - How he was forced to resign from the Escapist in 2015 and what he's been doing since then This is a rare and candid conversation with one of the most influential and controversial figures in gaming history.

Who or What is Responsible for Destroying the Western Comic Book Industry!? Welcome to this week's episode of CultureScape, where we will delve into the self-inflicted implosion of the comic book industry. In this episode, we will be speaking with one Justin World, a comic book artist and YouTube host of the Channel  @DrawandTalk  about how he got hounded and removed from his publisher for meekly criticizing # ComicsBrokeMe. But what led to the downfall of the comic book industry? How did a once-thriving industry become so broken? We'll be tackling these questions head-on, and discussing the various factors that contributed to the decline of the industry. Justin will share his insights on the current state of the comic book industry, and how it has impacted the world of comics, manga, and graphic novels. From the Marvel Cinematic Universe to DC Comics' Secret Invasion, we will explore how the industry has evolved over the years.

Why does the MCU now suck? We explore. Hint: It's not the Skrulls & it's not superhero fatigue. Welcome to CultureScape, the show that interviews the geek creators and influencers that built nerd culture. Today we have a special guest: Justin Watson, the bestselling author of the Timeless trilogy, a sci-fi thriller series that challenges the concepts of time travel and multiverses. Like Justin, the host (me) Pete loves a good time-travel story, but it seems the sort of stories being told with these classic devices are rather bad; best example being the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We talk to Justin about why he thinks the MCU is broken, and how the use of time travel and multiverses in movies like Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: No Way Home has ruined the storytelling and logic of the Marvel universe. We also discuss how other popular shows like Doctor Who and Rick and Morty have handled these topics, and what makes a good sci-fi story. Also, Doctor Who, also Stein's Gate, also Chrono Trigger, and a hundred other popular time-travel stories.
