Today would have been Fredrick Brennan's 32nd birthday. He died in his sleep last month, so here's Fred's partner to memorialize the 8chan founder who realized he was wrong, got out, and did what he could to take down the monster he helped create.

His family wanted to keep the news private until now for personal reasons, so we recorded this a couple weeks after his death but are only releasing it now that the news has officially broken. Don't worry, there's no crying in the episode. Unfortunately, the audio quality is really bad because due to the circumstances Jay didn't get to record in his usual spot. I'm sorry that one of our most historically significant episodes is also one of our worst-sounding ones, but given the circumstances I hope you will forgive.

CONTENT WARNING: This episode deals with drug addiction, abuse, and death. If that's going to ruin your day, maybe pass on this one because this is a real human trainwreck of an episode.

Phenazepam is a powerful benzodiazepine drug that was invented in Soviet Russia as a way of tranquilizing mental patients and helping alcoholics work through withdrawal. So of course when Something Awful's The Crackhead Clubhouse subforum learns about it they can't wait to ruin their lives with it! Folks, there are some real rough chuckles.

We also have a guest this week, comedian Bryan Cook (@BryanCooking on Twitter) swung by for a real baptism by fire into the I'M FROM THE INTERNET extended universe.

The indie gaming world has exploded in the past decade, and many successful indie game developers have called the Something Awful forums their homes. Dragoon Entertainment is one of them, and while their degree of success is debatable it is undeniable that they made SOMETHING.

Living in the age of streaming video and wireless internet, it's easy to forget that not that long ago is was a relatively common occurrence for people to pirate cable television with physical cables. In 2006, poster Pimpsolo found one such cable running across his property and into his neighbor's house, and when the cable company refused to do anything about he took GOON JUSTICE into his own hands with explosive results..

Martin Random was the handle of a well-known teller of tall tales in the early days of the Something Awful forums, and while I personally am not a fan of him or his writing a minisode seems like the perfect excuse to talk about one of his less scatological and more far-reaching stories. Today we talk about Martin Random's made-up stories about working as an agent in the Secret Service and witnessing all the quirky goings-on amongst 2006 America's favorite bunch of war criminals.

People being mad about chili recipes on the internet is a long and storied tradition in the world of posting. This is a unique case, though, because regardless of your opinions on using onion soup mix and six whole squirts of tobasco sauce as seasoning for a pot of chili its the really tryhard edginess that pushes this one into the annals of goon history. Don't worry, even the goons aren't having this one and we get maybe one of the all-timer dunks on a poster to end this mini-saga.

Producer Steve is back from his vacation so hopefully we'll have a proper full episode for you next week. Also, Winslow lost his job last week so if you haven't checked out his store already, give a peek because if nothing else his stickers are really funny http://www.winslowdumaine.com/shoplander

Steve on vacation abroad for the new few weeks so full episodes will resume when he returns. While he's away we're going to be putting out some smaller self-contained mini episodes so each week you can still get a small bite of Something Awful content. Jay''s apartment flooded and he's this close to throwing his laptop through the window and running away like the end of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest so please pardon the lack of usual editing bells and whistles as well as the relative brevity.

Do you ever look at your old drawings from when you were a kid and wonder "how the hell did I come up with that"? Well, a Something Awful poster with a name that I am unwilling to print in the show notes did that, and thankfully scanned and shared it with the Goons so they could as well. Buckle up because pain is the curse of consciousness and planet Earth is in for a world of hurt.

Sorry for the late upload, life has been pretty hectic here at IFTI so our next full episode had to be pushed back a week. Luckily Winslow stepped up and we have our first Winslow Presents episode of the show, where we take a break from talking about Something Awful and the Goons to read something from his archives. Today he's reading a rambling, pages-long run-on paragraph from a trucker's manifest explaining why they are no longer allowed to deliver to Walmart. Jay also discusses some of current works-in-progress.

Tune in next week for your next regularly-scheduled episode!

A break from format, instead of one continuous saga we read a grab bag of funny and weird posts with commentary and discussion in between. This grab bag is themed around goons talking about their misadventures in relationships, dating, and sex so this is definitely an IFTI After Dark episode.

In summer of 2011, Something Awful's fitness subforum hosted a thread obsessed with the concept of a diet low in carbohydrates not only as a way of losing weight but as a miracle cure for everything that ailed them. Then in fall of 2011, a previously healthy 21 year-old goon was prescribed statins by his doctor due to eating nothing but peanut butter, eggs, bacon, and hot dogs for weeks at the encouragement of the low-carb thread.

This episode is not an attack on the concept of a low-carb diet, it is a case study in the Goon tendency to let their geeky love of optimizing and minmaxing spill over into other aspects of their lives with disastrous results. And you better believe the low-carbers have some incredibly funny and unique takes on vegetarians!

The deceptive allure of the mystery box is something everyone has to learn to innoculate themselves from at one point or another. For most of us it is a metaphorical mystery box that confounds. like a TV show that keep stringing you along season after season without providing answer. But for an unfortunate few goons in the summer of 2010 it was a literal mystery box that was dangled in front of them like Lucy holding the football in front of Charlie Brown and assuring him that this time she would really let him kick it.

In 1966, an El Paso fertilizer salesman named Harold P. Warren created a movie called Manos: The Hands of Fate.

In 1993, the comedy program Mystery Science Theater 3000 released an episode dedicated to Manos that enshrined it in the pantheon of bad movies and created generations of fans.

Then in 2011, a Something Awful poster named Ben Solo found the pristine workprint of Manos: The Hands of Fate at an estate sale and kicked off a years-long odyssey of trying to get the film the restoration and preservation it deserved while fending off bad actors that wanted to turn his discovery into their payday.

Tune in next week for the conclusion of this story!

For our first real episode, we discuss one of the most-requested stories from the Twitter account: The story of a bored mid-20s Californian who decided the cure for his mental illnesses and the ennui of comfortable middle-class life was quitting his job and walking across America coast-to-coast in the middle of summer with little preparation and ignoring the guidance of experienced backpackers telling him that he was ill-equipped and the route would likely kill even an experienced long-distance hiker. To keep a sustainable weekly release schedule, for the time being,we're going to be splitting episodes in two so tune in next Wednesday for the exciting conclusion to Muerte's saga!

In our inaugural episode, hosts Winslow Dumaine and Jay Brandstetter introduce themselves and their internet bona fides. Jay gives a broad overview of the Something Awful forums, their historical significance, some baseline knowledge of the forum's culture and inner-workings, and a breakdown of each of the major subforums with some teaser of stories to look forward to in future episode.

The show's typical format is going to have each episode focus on a particular story or saga from the history of the Something Awful forums, so be sure to tune in next episode for your first taste of the show proper!

Living in the age of high profile remasters and rereleases, it can be easy to forget how difficult it used to be to get old games. In the late 1990s a Thai woman named Sarinee Achavanuntakul launched a website that would give a generation of gamers access to thousands of classic titles for free, despite the best attempts of the video game industry's lobbying group to shut it down. If that wasn't cool enough, she's been spending the past couple decades fighting to make the internet a better place for journalists under the Thai monarchy. A feelgood episode for this Thanksgiving week!

If you pay attention to the internet, you're probably really sick of hearing about Elon Musk. While his many public failures and embarassments have been making headlines throughout the 2020s, in the 2010s a slightly more respected Elon Musk bankrolled an internet satire startup helmed by former The Onion leadership. It was called Thud!, and there's a reason you've probably never heard of it.

After a year of teasing, we're finally going beyond the Something Awful forums to talk about all the rest of the old internet. Horse eBooks was a Twitter spambot in the early 2010s that developed a following due to the hilariously nonsensical fragments of text it would post. Behind the scenes, a creative director at Buzzfeed was seeing the opportunity to promote himself by destroying something beautiful.

Hard to believe, but there used to be a time on the internet when content theft was broadly frowned upon. One such thief was Eric Bauman, a high school student whose personal website grew to a vast and profitable content aggregator on the backs of many uncredited and uncompensated artists and comedians. Next week you'll learn all about misplaced Yiddish Cups and his failed television pilot, for now you'll get to see just why almost every funny person online in 2006 hated this dude.

Force equals mass times acceleration. Many tragedies could have been prevented if the people involved remembered this simple secondary school equation. This is one of them.

A summer camp building a zipline for their campers accidentally creates a Nothing But Trouble-esque bonestripping machine. Now they need to fix it, but they don't have a lot of money left over. Lives are hanging/zipping on the unqualified crowdfunded engineering advice of the Something Awful forums.

It can be hard to remember that there used to be a time before usernames. When figures in pop culture were named Kurt and Bill instead of MrBeast and Big Balls. This week, we go back to that time to learn where Richard Kyanka got the name Lowtax from and revel in the dramatic irony.

A leased sports car. A strip mall office. Mangosteen juice. This Scarface-esque montage of glamor and success is tragically cut short by the hammer-like punches of German filmmaker Uwe Boll and the decade of bad business and life decisions that followed. The ending is a bummer, but there's light to be found in a community coming together to right the wrongs of its founder.

This week we are joined by combat journalism expert Robert Evans, host of the podcasts Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here.

It's 2016. You work at a Murphy Bed store. You have to go to an after-hours the party the owner is throwing for his business partner. And then she makes everyone watch her sing a four minute long story song in a racist accent. For you, this was just a bad evening. For Jennifer Murphy, this is going to be the rest of her life.
