Easy Allies Wiki


Huber Hype is a weekly show created and hosted by Michael Huber where he talks about the things he's most passionate about. This includes video games, comic books, films, television series and more.

The show originally began as Huber Syndrome but it went back to its roots as a nod to the original GameTrailers show, Huber Hype.

History[]

Huber Syndrome[]

The first episode of Huber Syndrome premiered on April 12, 2016 shortly after the launch of Easy Allies. According to him, The Huber Syndrome, or just The Syndrome, refers to the inability of turning off your mind about the things you love or some piece of media you're currently hooked on.

On July 9, 2016, Huber premiered the first stream of the sub-show Talking Syndrome. Every Saturday, he discussed the week's episode with the community and occasional guests. After 49 episodes, Talking Syndrome ended on September 2, 2017 with a discussion on Game of Thrones Season 7.

Huber Syndrome filmed the last episode in Jones' garage on January 24, 2019 in a special Garage Farewell episode. He reminisced about the last three years in the garage before the big move into the new studio the following week.

The first episode in the studio debuted on January 31, 2019. The show was filmed on the main stage without a green screen for a few weeks before returning to the dynamic backgrounds on March 14, 2019.

In August 2019, it was announced during the Phase 4 Announcements[1] that Huber Syndrome would be going on hiatus while Huber worked on a limited series titled Huber's Prison of Love. The show premiered on December 4, 2019 and wrapped up on January 29, 2020.

On February 13, 2020, Huber Syndrome returned after close to a six month hiatus along with a new show logo. However due to the global pandemic, the show shifted from the studio to an at-home production just a few weeks later on March 26, 2020.

Easy Allies officially returned to The Studio as a group on June 10, 2021.[2] The date coincided with all of the Allies being fully vaccinated and COVID-cleared as well as the first day of E3. The first episode since returning to The Studio featured Huber, Brad, and Isla discussing the Elden Ring reveal trailer from the Summer Game Fest kickoff.

In March 2023 during EZX 2023, it was announced that Huber Syndrome would be going back to its roots under the name Huber Hype. The final episode of Huber Syndrome premiered on April 5, 2023 discussing the games of April. The first episode of the new Huber Hype premiered on April 17, 2023.
