Hosted by: Scotty B In this sharply observant episode, Scotty B takes aim at the growing tension between creativity and clout in the cosplay world. What started as a personal, fandom-driven art form has increasingly become entangled with influencer culture, branding, and the chase for internet fame. Scotty asks the critical question: Are you in it for the craft—or riding the wave of exposure, likes, and viral moments? He unpacks the allure of attention and the slippery slope of tying your value to audience size, while also reflecting on what’s lost when cosplay becomes just another content strategy. This episode challenges cosplayers to reconnect with their why . Whether you’ve been feeling burned out, unseen, or swept up in algorithmic expectations, this is your reminder: cosplay isn’t a popularity contest—unless you make it one.
