Sing Hallelujah, Pay Pigs and Prayer Warriors. The horseshoe of "it's so over" has swung up into "we're so back" territory and Big Soy Naturals is back in new form. Virgil is clicking on less viruses and Kenny is following even less directions as your they-devils help you navigate the world of meeting your partner's parents, telling lies, dating AI Chat bots, and finally maybe putting a lid on the "if Kenny autistic, why cool with friends?" debacle.

Pay Pigs and Prayer Warriors, get ready for a raunchy, irreverent and feminist take on f*****g! From the minds over at Fartstool Ports, two they/thems give you the hottest takes on sex and dating through the lens of everyone's favorite bad bitch: Andrea Dworkin! Together they take on their sworn nemesis, Call Her Daddy. Comparing both the words of a late scholar and a fully alive Blonde Woman, Call Them Stigmas seek to get at why heterosexual women put themselves in positions to be hurt by men who don't see them as fully realized individuals.

Diversity win, pay pigs and prayer warriors! This drone strike was launched by a gamer. In the final part of our Drone Strike series, Kenny and Virgil talk about how, as their recruitment numbers plummet, the US Department of Defense has made modern relationships with Silly-con Valley. Breaking down the summits with Google, to the hands shaken on university campuses and in start-up open plan offices, your They-Devils reflect on what led us here, and what we can expect to come hurtling at us, piloted by an Xbox Controller.

Gamers rise up! Today, Kenny and Virgil finally talk about a video game. In the 2000s, the military was facing a crisis: teens thought the military and dying in an imperialist war effort was cringe. And in the midst of a PR crisis, a national disaster and Ludacris’ birthday, the game America’s Army was born. A game meant to train your child for the War On Terror from the comfort of your home. Your favorite they-devils take a look on how the game was made, how it was played, and what exactly, the military was trying to say to the youth of America in the wake of 9/11. note: our website is going through a redesign ! soon you will find all our citations and a bunch of other mind expanding content there Join our Discord!

WE HAVE A DISCORD NOW! JOIN THE BIG SOY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/eeY2h4dY Okay, about the actual episode…Video games were so crucial for George Bush and his friends to accomplish their mission during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Part 2 traces the origins and justifications of the War on Terror, and connects the post-Cold War scrambling for new wars by defense contractors, US officials, military leaders and right wing intellectuals to the rise of video games as a pedagogical method and recruitment tool. note: our website is going through a redesign ! soon you will find all our citations and a bunch of other mind expanding content there.

There is a pipeline from video games to the US military and it goes forward and backward and side to side, just like the buttons on your Gameboy Advanced. In this first installment, we look at the history of video game development and learn that when there was only one set of footprints in the sand, that was when the eternal war machine was carrying you, dear gamer. We come very close to accusing Activision of doing 9/11, but we show some restraint. note: our website is going through a redesign ! soon you will find all our citations and a bunch of other mind expanding content there.
