We also covered subconsciously emulating your heroes’ trick book, seen here via the same Kenny section and Ryan's part in Sci-Fi Fantasy's 'Endless Beauty'.

I talked to Ryan Lay about video parts that vibe and video parts that punish for Quartersnacks. Here's Ryan on the former via Kenny Reed in New Deal's '7 Year Glitch'. 🎥 — quartersnacks.com/2025/09/five...

One of my favourite things I’ve ever written was that Nick Boserio skates like Indiana Jones running away from the giant boulder. Revisiting that story on account of this line, from Hayley Wilson’s new part, encapsulating it perfectly. — quartersnacks.com/2022/09/five...
