5New to podcasts? It's like talk radio, but whenever you want it. And no commercials. '''On The Tropes''' is a show that focuses on one trope per episode, breaks it down, and then a list of favorites is made. If you're into video games, its brother show '''On The Rocks''' reviews video games, video game tropes, and the appropriate accompanying booze. So grab your phone, give it a download, and be a little less bored on your drive to work or walk to class!

773Almost thirty years ago, the governments of the world banded together to enact a secret plan: to study and catalogue storytelling conventions and motifs. The goal was to discover certain patterns, the so-called “tropes”. In controlling story-telling itself, these corrupt governments would control the world. And so “On The Tropes”, a term coined by project head Professor Gary Goldstein, was born.
774
775They soon realized that none of the scientists of the era possessed the massive levels of bravery and intellect required for the study. Having no other option, the government leaders turned to their only possible course of action: dark science, and even darker sorcery.
776
777Six male children were chosen and developed in secrecy throughout their lives. Using an array of scientific, philosophical, mystical, and some say evil methods, the scientists achieved a remarkable result. The six men were gifted with powers of comprehension and wisdom heretofore unseen since the days of the Egyptian priests. Rebelling together against their dictatorial creators, the six men released storytelling from its totalitarian chains as they became the six hosts of On The Tropes:
778
779* '''Nick Fulton''': dashing emergency physicist, playboy adventurer, and your divine host.
780
781* '''Kyle Fulton''': his brother, gifted with creative powers unseen since a young Gene Roddenberry walked the Earth.
782
783* '''Mike Truax''': a young captain of industry, appropriately known to the Western world as “the most critical man alive”.
784
785* '''Themos Politis''': half mad scientist, half champion of the people, and half Adonis.
786
787* '''Cir L’Bert Jr.''': an urban mystery-man whose steely gaze can turn even the strongest heart to pure molten gold.
788
789* '''Jake Kellogg''': George Lucas' inspiration for both the Stormtrooper and Han Solo.
790
791After stealing the powerful cosmic technology of the On The Tropes Studios, the magnificent six escaped into the wilderness. Now, they have returned with a newfound purpose: to use the knowledge and powers they have accrued from On The Tropes to free mankind from fear and ignorance forever.
