Now, the games generally focus on bringing down these bad leaders - and they do a great job. I've learned a LOT and it follows many of the lessons we've learned throughout our own history on the subject.

#9 - The Hidden Code of Unus Annus (Markiplier & CrankGamePlays)
Season 10 - Episode 45 - Aired 10/24/2020
When Markiplier and CrankGamePlays put up the channel Unus Annus, they had two big rules. 1. They would be uploading daily for 365 day. 2. After those 365 days, the channel would be deleted and disappear forever. That is a BIG play. All that work just to have it disappear? It is a bold and simple premise for a channel... except nothing is ever that simple, is it? Therosits, I have watched and analyzed all of the uploads on the channel and I've come to one BIG conclusion. There is something SECRET hiding in the videos of Unus Annus. A secret that someone has been trying to tell us since the beginning. A secret that, just maybe, could save Mark, Ethan, and Unus Annus before the clock runs out.

Season 10 - Episode 37 - Aired 8/29/2020
Epic Games, the creator of Fortnite, has come out swinging recently. First it was at the Google Play Store, now it's out for Apple's App Store too. Sure, Epic Games says it's about them banning Fortnite from their stores, but I think there is something much BIGGER going on. What exactly? Well, it's written plainly in their own legal documents - they want to open their OWN app store and to do so, they need to break down the monopolies already dominating the markets.
#19 - Ellie Is NOT Immune! (The Last of Us Part 2)
Season 10 - Episode 31 - Aired 7/18/2020
The Last of Us franchise is a story of humanity trying to survive in the face of a virus turning people into fungus creatures that are not quite zombies. We learn early on in the first game that Ellie is immune, perhaps even the only immune person there is. This makes her invaluable to those trying to find a cure. Except, I think she may not be immune. The second game shows a lot of evidence that something else may be going on with Ellie. Something that may tell us the future direction of this story and the future of Ellie.

With all the pushes going on in media, like the MCU and James Bond, it's good to know that Five Nights at Freddy's is still going strong and coming out with new stories for me to theorize about. One of my favorite FNAF characters is the little plush monster himself, Psychic Friend Fredbear. He, and the other monster toys found throughout the FNAF franchise, are FULL of secrets.
