About This Podcast

Founded in 2019 by Bryan Arivett and Joshua Hargis, Sacred Icon was originally centered around the Halo franchise only, but in time began to cover all forms of entertainment. If you're nostalgic for the gaming days of old, then chances are you've come to the right place. The podcast officially ended August 2025, but the entire library remains here as a testament to the hard work and passion of everyone involved. Thank you for joining us on this Great Journey. Keep it Sacred!
