Other episodes are devoted to examining specific pieces of pop culture, such as television programs Steven Universe and The Big Bang Theory, and films including Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Star Wars.

Writing In 2014, McIntosh wrote the opinion piece, Playing with privilege: the invisible benefits of gaming while male, which addressed the Gamergate controversy that had been receiving increasing media attention and public discourse. In the piece, he sought to address the underlying problems that contributed toward sexism in video gaming by examining the inherent privileges that male-identified gamers benefit from. Taking inspiration from the famous Daily Effects of White Privilege list by Peggy McIntosh, among others, McIntosh listed 25 Daily Effects of Male Game Privilege. These included such privileges as "I will never be asked or expected to speak for all other gamers who share my gender."
