EP232 | GAMING FOR CALM, BRAIN ROT & JUDGE JERRY'S BIRTHDAY BOLLOCKING by Topicopedia Podcast published on 2026-10-27T13:30:05Z This week on Topicopedia, Ste and Nicole are joined by Naomi (aka Nemo) and Sheree from Beyond the Cosy Hideout, and we're mixing absolute nonsense with something genuinely important. The girls are taking on 60 hours of gaming throughout November, including a massive 24-hour livestream starting at 1pm on 14 November, to raise money for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably). Alongside their friend Helen, they're using their love of gaming to raise awareness of mental health, disability, friendship and the importance of checking in on people who might be struggling. But don't worry — we haven't suddenly turned into a sensible podcast. Elsewhere this week: - Nicole's spider empire expands into 3D-printed accommodation. - We argue about people blasting videos on public transport, irritating influencers and the TV licence. - Judge Jerry delivers a spectacularly savage verdict on a birthday friendship disaster involving weight loss, jealousy and a very unfortunate comment. - Follow Fast or Scroll Past: Brain Rot Edition takes us through NPC livestreams, Skibidi Toilet, AI slop, rizz, delulu and virtual influencers. - Naomi and Sheree go head-to-head in Meme of the Week, including a grandma tattoo with a rather unfortunate side effect. - And we finish with another collection of jokes that probably shouldn't be told in polite company.
