GALLUP NEW MEXICO MENTIONED IN THE FIRST TEN SECONDS OF THE NEW FOLDING IDEAS VIDEO

LET'S GO

[theworstofallpossibleworlds]

Hi guys! thanks for keeping me company at work, Whit's endless summer has been a delight and the interstitials kind of make me wonder if you'll ever do anything more long form like that?

We do have some plans to do a long-form project but, we'd like to do it right and, unfortunately, doing it right costs money. It would probably have to be self-financed and, while we're getting closer to the point where we could afford it, we're not quite there yet. The best thing anyone can do to help us make that project a reality is a) be a podcasting network that wants to throw sacks of cash at us, b) support the podcast on Patreon, or c) tell your friends about the show! The more people know about us, the closer we can get to making that long-form project and some other really cool stuff we have in the "break glass in case of financial windfall" folder.

TWOAPW #168: THE NOSTALGIA CRITIC

Hellloooooo, we’re The Worst of All Possible Worlds, we remember it so you don’t have to! We all remember Doug Walker, you know, that guy with the glasses, the tie, and the plain white background because they clearly couldn’t afford a better set? Well, wouldn’t you know it, he created a character called the Nostalgia Critic, a loud, obnoxious, Looney Tunes-adjacent blowhard who got famous for being very mad about Batman having a credit card. But does he have anything to say about our current critical landscape or do his over-the-top antics make him look like a groundhog on meth? Let’s take a look at: The Nostalgia Critic.
