Top Dogs is a weekly released furry podcast that talks about all things furry. It is recorded in VRChat in a customized world built specifically for the podcast. Video episodes are hosted on YouTube while the audio episodes are available on all major podcast platforms on their RSS feed (audio episodes are released every Tuesday and video episodes every Wednesday).

Background and history

Started as an idea by FictionBoi to have a podcast show primarily located on the social platform of VRChat. He then reached out to several other people including Coltyn, Whiplash Wolf, Conrad Husky, and J'ron.

Together they published the first episode of Top Dogs on May 23, 2022. Towards the end of June, Conrad Husky decided to step down from the team. In his absence, we decided that team members from the production team could be featured on the show as a "rotating seat" to discuss topics they are particularly passionate about.

However, the team felt that a third permanent podcaster/host would still be needed so on August 28, 2022, Stream Arcadad made his debut on the podcast.

Season 2 of the podcast started on January 10th, 2023.
