Nasubi, Reality Show Torture Victim | Case File #129 Sep 15, 2022

Show notes

He spent over a year in a tiny room, naked, surviving off of only what he won through magazine sweepstakes. He predicted how life basically became for everyone. He’s a Japanese amateur comedian whose real name is Tomoaki Hamatsu. In the late 90s, he won a raffle to be the contestant on a game show titled “Prize Contest Life” where he had to live in a tiny room by himself, completely naked, no contact with the outside world, and only a rack of magazines to read. The rules of the game were that he wasn’t allowed to have any food, clothing, or anything else unless he won it through a sweepstakes in one of the magazines. What ensued was 15 straight months of a man slowly losing his sanity live on television as Nasubi struggled to win enough food through magazine contests to stay alive. He also ended up being the world’s very first video game live streamer, true reality tv celebrity, set multiple world records, served as a biting satire of modern consumer capitalism, and predicted our modern world of celebrity obsession and the attention economy. -- Join our Discord server! https://bit.ly/deepcutsdiscord -- Pick up some Deep Cuts T-Shirts and other merch! https://bit.ly/deepcutsmerch -- Get the official Deep Cuts shoulder patch! http://bit.ly/deepcuts_patch -- Listen to our album, a 9 song rock opera about the rise and fall of Napster! https://open.spotify.com/album/63C5uu1tkzZ2FhfsrSSf5s?si=q4WItoNmRUeM159TxKLWew Learn more about your ad choices.

McKamey Manor, House of Legal Torture | Case File #124 Aug 10, 2022

Show notes

McKamey Manor is a "haunted house" where guests are tortured, beat up, and nearly drowned, and it has a waitlist of over 20,000 people. In the late 90s and early 2000s, an amateur haunted house enthusiast, Russ McKamey, started hosting "haunts" in his backyard. Over the years he began to attract attention as these haunted house experiences became more and more extreme. By the late 2010s, he started to become nationally known for the fact that McKamey Manor had somehow devolved into an 8 hour torture session where guests consented to being beaten up, drowned, covered in bugs and snakes, and pushed to their psychological breaking point. But, despite the fact that everyone involved is a consenting adult, many thing McKamey Manor should be shut down. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we explore the disturbing world of McKamey Manor. -- Get the Mystery Treehouse Simple Code Hybrid Album and Comic! https://bit.ly/simplecodecomic Watch the Simple Code Comic Album Video Trailer! https://bit.ly/simplecodetrailer -- Join our Discord server! https://bit.ly/deepcutsdiscord -- Pick up some Deep Cuts T-Shirts and other merch! https://bit.ly/deepcutsmerch -- Get the official Deep Cuts shoulder patch! http://bit.ly/deepcuts_patch -- Listen to our album, a 9 song rock opera about the rise and fall of Napster! https://open.spotify.com/album/6INdubx1dAEKNwuoWzs9Oo?si=z4ljoBAYTFqRXKWVzvWEfg Learn more about your ad choices.
