How Comedy Drowned in a Radioactive Cesspool of Corruption and Depravity

2026 · 83 min · Documentary, Comedy

We continue our exploratory investigation into the depths of the comedy world, trying to figure out how and why it got so degraded and destroyed. Picking up from where our last exploration left off, we examine the current state of the comedy sphere, while probing the invisible techno algorithmic undertow that shapes our inner thoughts and outer behavior. We also consider humanity's innate and deeply subcortical instinct to belong to a group, and the amygdalar fear factory in our brain which influences us to stay with and protect that group. Comedy.

Continuing our investigation into how our current comedy era got to be so wonderful. They say that power doesn't corrupt, it reveals. Once a guy like Joe Rogan, the Comedy Czar, grabs hold of the reins of power, he can wield his power in any number of directions. We examine humanity's innate instinct to migrate, and where we head when there is nowhere else to go. How can the nature of subjective reality be leveraged and exploited. The complex psychological mechanisms behind the current comedy era. The powerful cult behind the destruction of everything that was ever good. Hyperreality, classic reality. And the cycles.
