#1 - How Jake Paul and Logan Paul CONQUERED YouTube!

Season 7 - Episode 19 - Aired 6/25/2017

Viners like Jake Paul and Logan Paul are infiltrating YouTube! Welcome to what I like to refer to as Gen IV of YouTube - the first generation where the current YouTubers grew up watching YouTube. They've spent their childhoods watching, learning, and are now redefining the platform. But how is this new generation of YouTube gaining momentum so quickly? By taking advantage of the algorithm, and I'm showing you how.

MINECRAFT is one of the few games that beat all the odds to make History, becoming one of the World’s Most Popular Games Ever. But how did this happen?

#4 - FNAF, The FINAL Theory! (Five Nights at Freddy’s) - pt 2

Season 7 - Episode 33 - Aired 11/5/2017

Here it is...the end of an era. Three years and almost twenty theories, but I think I have it. I think I've SOLVED FNAF. When you look at the timeline of events, all the major questions of the franchise start to make sense -- Who is inside Springtrap? Was FNAF 4 in 1983 or 1987? Where is Chica in Sister Location? What's the deal with Balloon Boy? So I went back and mapped out EVERY event to create the FINAL FNAF theory...answering all the lingering questions from the series and setting things up for Scott to eventually release FNAF 6. We all know it's coming so why resist?

Sure Mario may get the girl, but Luigi apparently gets the gold. I always wondered how Luigi wound up with his own mansion. Turns out, he's filthy rich. He'd have to be to afford a home like that. But just how rich are we talkin'? I'm about to show you.

#6 - FNAF, We were WRONG about the Bite (Five Nights at Freddy's)

Season 7 - Episode 13 - Aired 4/29/2017

All this time, I've been doing lore-based theories on FNAF, trying to piece together clues about the Purple Guy, the missing children, the Crying Child, Psychic Friend Fredbear. But today, I'm tackling the series from a different angle -- an old-school angle. Today, I'm looking at the SCIENCE of Five Nights at Freddy's, to see whether n animatronic would really have the BITING power necessary to break through bone. Could the bite we see in FNAF 4 really happen? Or is there something more sinister going on in the walls of Fredbear's Family Diner?

Just fake let's plays, of a fake game, telling a very REAL and traumatic story. Be warned, today's theory covers some pretty heavy topics, including child neglect and murder.

Season 7 - Episode 36 - Aired 11/26/2017

In the modern age of gaming, it seems like indie games are king. AAA games, on a whole, just aren’t as good as the far cheaper and more challenging games emerging from indie creators. Well it turns out that this could’ve easily been predicted because it’s all happened before – and in Art no less! That’s right, Loyal Theorists, the stuffy world of Art can reveal the exact phases of how gaming has progressed, and what will come next!

Since Undertale's release, one question has plagued the fan base - Just who is W. D. Gaster? And why don't I ever find this mystery man? Many have speculated that it was just a little code that Toby Fox threw in last minute, but there is so much more to it than that. Welcome to the episode that I am probably most nervous about. By the way, sorry for all the digressions in this episode but this is a really sensitive franchise for me to cover...

FOR HONOR is the game where you can fight ferociously as one of the coolest three warriors in history: a Knight, Viking, or Samurai! But if a three-way battle like this could really take place, WHO WOULD WIN? Would it be the Viking with his Nordic machismo? The Knight with his sword & shield? Or the Samurai with his horse & bow?

KINDERGARTEN - a game filled with the nostalgia of youth. Who doesn’t love reminiscing about buying cigarettes on the playground or convincing the janitor to murder your classmates? No?

#19 - The TRAITOR of Dark Souls! (Dark Souls 3)

Season 7 - Episode 10 - Aired 4/1/2017

Dark Souls is, without question, my favorite modern gaming franchise. But doing a theory on these games requires an IMMENSE amount of explanation since every element of Dark Souls lore is hidden in things like item descriptions and design details. So today, I'm reviewing the entire Dark Souls story and setting up the pieces to unlock these games' greatest mystery -- who are you playing as in Dark Souls 3? Because when you actually put the puzzle pieces together, your character ISN'T just a nameless protagonist, but rather DOES have a lore behind him...but it's going to take a LONG time to get there. So apologies for the 2-parter, but in order to make sure everyone understands what's going on when I start getting deeper into Dark Souls Lore, I had to make sure we all had a solid understanding of the main plot and characters! And to make it better -- there's a giveaway! Huzzah!

#23 - Super Mario...BETRAYED!

Season 7 - Episode 34 - Aired 11/11/2017

Mario is Evil. Bowser is misunderstood. Boo is just a piece of fluffy cotton candy. You've heard me say it all before... okay, well maybe not that last bit. Needless to say, the Mushroom Kingdom isn't always so black and white. The characters representing good and evil aren't always so crystal clear. But there IS one man in the Mushroom Kingdom that is straight up Evil. A man that is so driven by personal greed, there is no mistaking he is pure Evil!

#24 - Sonic is Lying...AGAIN! (Sonic Mania)

Sega may not be the gaming powerhouse it once was, but SONIC will forever be a classic video game hero. But despite the loving nostalgia I hold for Sonic, his games don’t always make the most sense. Chaos Emeralds, for example, are one of the more ridiculous aspects of any gaming franchise. Or are they? The idea behind chaos emeralds is that they’re powerful battery-like rocks. As crazy as that sounds, it’s a lot closer to reality than you might think!
