Avatar frontman Johannes Eckerström joins Loudwire Nights to tease the band's next studio album, dive into their tour with Metallica and more.

In dieser Folge wird geschwitzt – nicht nur wegen der Hitzewelle, die ganz Deutschland lahmlegt, sondern auch wegen der heißen Themen, die wir wieder auf den Tisch bringen. Wir starten mit der Frage, wer eigentlich in der Jury von “Let's Dance” sitzt – und warum uns Detlef D! Soosts Online-Auftritt körperlich schmerzt. Außerdem ziehen wir einen überraschenden Vergleich: Ist Aiman Abdallah der deutsche George Clooney? Zumindest ein bisschen Fernseh-Glanz darf ja sein.Jumbo Schreiner feiert sein Comeback in unseren Herzen und auf Social Media. Wir analysieren seine Karriere, sein Content-Game und klären, warum „XXL“ für ihn mehr Lebensgefühl als Größenangabe ist. Und apropos Grenzerfahrung: Lebt Jenke eigentlich noch oder experimentiert er heimlich weiter? Auch “Super Size Me” darf nicht fehlen – wir diskutieren, warum die USA kulinarisch komplett entgleisen.Unsere neueste Geschäftsidee kommt in Form einer Fitness-App, bei der man einen Avatar levelt. Sport trifft Gaming – und das Geld druckt sich quasi von allein. Ganz anders fühlt sich „Adolescents“ auf Netflix an. Die Serie hat uns schwer getroffen und zeigt: Wir sind offiziell zu alt für diese Generation. Der Kultur-Schock ist real.Wir blicken auf Tom Cruises Karriere zurück, der nun mit einem Ehren-Oscar geehrt wird – von „Top Gun“ bis Scientology, wir lassen nichts aus. Währenddessen startet „Drachenzähmen leicht gemacht“ im Kino, und das Internet explodiert wegen der neuen „Harry Potter“-Besetzung. Nostalgie trifft auf Casting-Kontroversen – wir sind mitten drin.Dom liest immer noch das gleiche Buch und fragt sich, warum das so lange dauert, während Dennis sich wünscht, dass Bücher endlich Platz für Notizen bieten. Ob das eine Marktlücke ist? Vielleicht. Auch kulinarisch wird es kontrovers: Nudeln auf der Pizza – ist das genial oder einfach nur falsch? Die Küche wird dann endgültig revolutioniert mit unserem Lifehack: Pizza von unten anbraten. Ein Game Changer.Zum Schluss wird es absurd – und biologisch: Dennis wurde bei McDonald's übers Ohr gehauen, während wir parallel entdecken, dass der Telegram-Gründer über 100 Kinder durch Samenspende gezeugt hat. Ist das noch Privatangelegenheit oder schon Wirtschaftszweig? Bei 80 bis 150 Euro pro Spende, bis zu dreimal die Woche, stellen wir die Frage: Ist Masturbation bald steuerlich absetzbar?#PodcastDeutschland #PopkulturPodcast #SatirePodcast #LetsDance2025 #DetlefDSoost #AimanAbdallah #JumboSchreiner #SuperSizeMe #FitnessApp #AdolescentsNetflix #NetflixEmpfehlung #TomCruise #HarryPotterCasting #DrachenzähmenLeichtGemacht #PizzaHack #FoodDebatte #McDonaldsFail #Samenspende #TelegramSkandal #StartupIdee #NotizenImBuch #GenerationZ #BoomerContent #Kulturkommentar #Sommerhitze #DeutschlandBrutzelt #Ehrenoscar #FilmPodcast #BookProblems #PizzaVonUnten #DigitalSatire #GameChangerSchaut euch einfach den Podcast direkt auf YouTube an und lasst nen Like und nen Abo da!Die Bros auf Social MediaIG:https://www.instagram.com/brokrastinieren?igsh=dXZtdnptdW14MXJm&utm_source=qrYT: https://youtube.com/@Brokrastinieren?Si=OYqKD0GvIrrqF-HuTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@brokrastinieren?_†=8j06FwPCVWq&_ґ=1h

50 años nada menos acaba de cumplir el escualo asesino con el que Steven Spielberg aterrorizó a media humanidad. Cinco décadas desde el estreno de “Tiburón”, la película que lanzó la carrera de su director, se convirtió en la más taquillera de la historia hasta entonces y de alguna forma cambió el cine comercial. En este episodio salimos de pesca para contaros como fue el rodaje de aquella película. También recordamos al compositor James Horner, el autor de la música de películas como “Titanic”, “Braveheart” o “Avatar” que falleció hace ahora 10 años cuando se estrelló la avioneta que él mismo pilotaba. La última película que rodó John Wayne, “El último pistolero” es el western que Jack Bourbon nos trae esta semana y hemos charlado con el actor Alex Monner que ha estrenado película este viernes: “Los bárbaros”.

A lot of movies have made over $1 billion at the worldwide box office, but how many of them deserve to be listed amongst the best films of all time? Using the S to D Tiermaker scale, we rank the Top 50 highest-grossing movies of all time based on how good of a movie we think it is.Is Avatar actually an S Tier movie? Is Fast & Furious 7 already the way down in D tier? And where do all of the Star Wars films rank?In this conversation, the hosts delve into a variety of blockbuster films, discussing their box office performances, cultural impact, and personal opinions. From the highs of Spider-Man and Titanic to the lows of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Transformers: Age of Extinction, the discussion covers a wide range of cinematic experiences.

(0:05:24) Kev: Can’t great good stuff (0:05:26) Kev: It’s it’s always surprises me how like affordable and easy it is to get into chickens if you have the space for it (0:05:32) Codey: He was like, it was so funny because we were texting about it. And he was like, he was (0:05:39) Codey: doing the whole like, back in my day, they used to be like a dollar each. And now they’re (0:05:44) Codey: $4, I guess. When you buy them, and he was like, it’s just so like, why is it selling? (0:05:45) Kev: Haha, yeah. (0:05:50) Codey: They used to be so much less expensive. And I was like, yeah, 100%. Um, but it’s fun. (0:05:52) Kev: Well, general gestures at the world, I guess. (0:06:00) Codey: So that I’ve also been doing (0:06:02) Codey: actual gardening at my house. (0:06:04) Kev: No, what’s growing? (0:06:04) Codey: So I have a bunch of peppers coming up, (0:06:08) Codey: some romaine, some kale, some tomatoes, and then I planted. (0:06:13) Codey: So all of those that I just mentioned (0:06:15) Codey: were like starts already. (0:06:17) Codey: So they were already like a little seedling. (0:06:20) Codey: They already have stuff going on. (0:06:20) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:06:23) Codey: But I had these zucchini seeds that weren’t ready, (0:06:28) Codey: like weren’t started. (0:06:30) Kev: I know. (0:06:30) Codey: And so I put those, and they were, (0:06:32) Codey: actually, a little old. So I was like, I don’t know if this is gonna work. So I put the seeds in the ground, and low and behold, they are a bump in. So I actually need to thin those. Yeah, they actually, I actually need to thin those. And then in game news, I beat Breath of the Wild. And I started Tears in the Kingdom, and I did not get very far. I fell to the, to the ground, and then (0:06:42) Kev: life sprung forth. (0:06:52) Kev: Yo, congrats, okay. (0:07:03) Codey: immediately tried to make a wagon out of, because it’s like, there’s like parts all over the world. And there’s like, clearly, what are wagon parts. And I got almost all the way, and then I messed something up. And I like tried to shake it off. And it just broke the whole thing. (0:07:09) Kev: Yeah, yeah. (0:07:18) Kev: Oh, ha ha ha ha! Yeah! Yeah! (0:07:21) Codey: I haven’t really gotten back into that. (0:07:25) Kev: Oh, too disheartening. (0:07:26) Kev: Uh, um, okay, well, alright, there’s a lot here, so let’s back up one sec. (0:07:32) Kev: Okay, birth of the wild, what are your overall thoughts? (0:07:36) Codey: I really liked it. I think the story was don’t don’t look too hard at it, you know, like (0:07:41) Kev: Yeah, that’s correct (0:07:43) Codey: It’s pretty see-through, but it was a solid game. I had a lot of fun (0:07:46) Codey: I still have so much that I could do if I wanted to 100% it but I (0:07:51) Codey: Do not want to do that. So I’m not gonna do (0:07:53) Kev: Yeah, understandable. (0:07:56) Kev: Yeah. (0:07:57) Codey: Maybe it’s something I’d go back to later, but I just have I’m in this like (0:08:02) Codey: Purge mode where I’m like, I need to get through things. So I’m like purging my book (0:08:06) Codey: shelf. Like, I’ve been going through books that are on my bookshelf instead of buying (0:08:06) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:08:11) Codey: books this year and getting rid of a lot of that. I’ve been just going through like boxes (0:08:11) Kev: Mm-hmm. That’s good (0:08:18) Codey: that I’ve had for forever and I just need to get rid of them. So yeah. (0:08:20) Kev: Yeah (0:08:22) Kev: Yeah, okay (0:08:25) Kev: Understandable, okay, uh tears of the king. All right, you know what? (0:08:28) Kev: I think it’s probably for the best you take a breather because tears the I mean (0:08:32) Codey: Yeah. (0:08:33) Kev: There’s a lot new and like it’s sequel worthy (0:08:37) Kev: But it’s still you know, the the breath of the wild skeleton is there, right? So (0:08:38) Codey: Yeah. (0:08:40) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:08:42) Kev: That’s a lot of breath of the wild at once and here’s the kingdom just like the predecessor is beefy (0:08:47) Kev: So, you know what, it’s probably for the best you take. (0:08:48) Codey: I think that’s the thing is like I started playing Tears of the Kingdom and I was like (0:08:56) Codey: I can see how this is going to be the same but also I’m not emotionally ready for these (0:09:01) Codey: changes like there was so much that like powers are different and I’m just struggling and (0:09:02) Kev: Yep. Oh, yeah. Yep. (0:09:09) Codey: so I yeah I needed to take a step back but yeah we. (0:09:11) Kev: Understandable, but it’ll be there when you’re ready. It’s good. It’s a thumbs up as well. (0:09:18) Codey: Yeah we’ve been doing a lot of stuff around the house and I’ve been trying to get rid (0:09:19) Kev: But yeah, I’d take a breather because it. (0:09:27) Codey: of a bunch of my specimens. I have like bugs that are that I caught like on my own that (0:09:32) Codey: I don’t actually they’re not part of anything that I just wanted to go through and I’m so (0:09:38) Codey: I’m finally starting to go through some of those so that my partner and we can have my (0:09:45) Codey: My partner and my roommate can have a freezer again. (0:09:48) Kev: Hmm (0:09:48) Codey: Everyone wants to be with the weird bugs early until they realize it means no freezer space because your freezer is all bugs. (0:09:56) Kev: that’s good good stuff (0:09:58) Codey: So yeah. What have you been up to though? How’s the pup? (0:10:04) Kev: oh the pup the pup is is he’s got healthy six seven months old he’s I mean he’s full size (0:10:11) Kev: he’s gonna be a little guy forever he’s toy variety of poodle but he still is energetic (0:10:12) Codey: Yeah. (0:10:16) Kev: and chaotic as always um still very much puppy um yeah um but uh but he’s yeah he’s a lot of fun (0:10:25) Kev: and still a lot of work, a lot of energy. (0:10:26) Kev: but it’s good. (0:10:29) Kev: Let’s see, other thing, non-puppy things. (0:10:32) Kev: So, I got Kyle and his late birthday gift to Switch 2 on just Friday. (0:10:40) Kev: That was a wild ride because, so the week, Switch 2 is a week out now, basically. (0:10:48) Kev: And I heard people, you know, I didn’t hear any horror stories of PS5, like, oh, it’s not available anywhere. (0:10:54) Kev: I heard everyone was getting it fine and so on. (0:10:56) Kev: And then later in the week I heard, “Oh, this is now the fastest selling console of all time ever.” (0:11:06) Kev: And then when Friday came and I got my paycheck, I was like, “Okay, so where do I get my Switch 2 for Calvin?” (0:11:12) Kev: And, “Oh, oh, it is now sold out everywhere. Oh, and so I’m sweating here.” (0:11:18) Kev: And then I reached out to someone who’s never done me wrong. (0:11:24) Kev: me wrong, someone all reliable. (0:11:26) Kev: you know I heard it was going in and out at stock in some places so I called (0:11:29) Codey: - Ah, yeah. (0:11:35) Kev: my local Costco and sure enough they got him so I was like well you going to (0:11:40) Kev: Costco and so I picked up you know my like switch to and four dozen eggs and (0:11:46) Kev: lemonade you know as one does at the Costco (0:11:48) Codey: Yeah, Costco. Costco also one of the only corporations that did not back off of their queer and diversity stuff when the new administration came in so great, great business to support. (0:12:00) Kev: Yup, yup, yup, Costco generally one of the better ones, not as horribly monstrous as (0:12:11) Kev: other corporations, um, you know, there’s still corporation or whatever, but generally (0:12:17) Kev: I hear good things, um, but anyway, so yeah, so Costco’s great, their food court’s still (0:12:22) Kev: great, um, that I got to switch to at Costco, it came in a bundle, I, I, I drew to Costco, (0:12:28) Kev: There was a discount. (0:12:29) Kev: You get a… (0:12:30) Kev: You get the Switch 2. (0:12:31) Kev: You get the Mario Kart World and a year of the Nintendo Online, the expansion, the better (0:12:37) Codey: live or whatever oh (0:12:40) Kev: one. (0:12:41) Kev: I forget the final price, but it is at a discount, all the stuff all together. (0:12:46) Kev: So that was nice. (0:12:51) Kev: And yeah, so we fired it up, Calvin played a lot of Mario Kart World with Calvin, I see (0:12:56) Kev: for myself, um, it, Mario Kart world is, you know, (0:13:00) Kev: interesting. Like now, now I can understand the process on the stuff Al said. (0:13:05) Kev: So like the Grand Prix is the biggest change because, um, you know, (0:13:09) Kev: in, in all the other Mario karts, it’s okay. Here’s your four courses. (0:13:12) Kev: You run three laps in them or whatever, right? That, that’s just how it is. (0:13:16) Kev: Okay. Now here, it’s not so much like you’re driving to, (0:13:21) Kev: I mean, you are kind of driving to the next track technically, (0:13:23) Kev: but really that’s just part of the Grand Prix. Like instead of three laps, (0:13:28) Kev: There’s three sections and the first section is… (0:13:30) Kev: Okay, drive to, you know, the next track or first or part of it or whatever, so (0:13:36) Kev: It’s less lab continuous laps around a single track and more just going across this entire island in bits and chunks (0:13:45) Kev: So yeah, that is different (0:13:49) Kev: Overall it’s solid. It’s Mario Kart. What can I say? (0:13:52) Kev: But but yeah, it did (0:13:55) Kev: One thing I will say that the huge cast and roster is actually it’s pretty awesome (0:14:01) Kev: just (0:14:02) Kev: Yeah, like cow cow is great actually (0:14:06) Kev: Yeah, and just other random weirdos and losers like the fishbone or pianza (0:14:11) Kev: And even the the main roster that you know the named characters they they have their costumes and a lot of those costumes (0:14:18) Kev: They’re pretty good. I won’t lie (0:14:22) Kev: You get Luigi dressing up like a like a was they called the gondolas in Venice and like one of those guys the gondola (0:14:28) Codey: Oh yeah, yeah, Donna Lear, yeah. (0:14:30) Kev: Yeah, there you go. That’s the word (0:14:33) Kev: Yeah, you get biker characters and just oh, it’s fun (0:14:37) Kev: There’s it’s it’s a lot to see and do (0:14:42) Kev: So yeah, oh, that’s good and the switch to in general (0:14:47) Kev: Holy moly that the technical upgrade is very not just palpable like it’s it’s it’s clear like night and day (0:14:56) Codey: I would hope so. It’s been like 5 years, right? (0:14:57) Kev: And not (0:15:00) Kev: Yeah, no, it’s been almost ten (0:15:04) Codey: Oh my god. (0:15:08) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:15:08) Codey: That’s… I blinked. (0:15:12) Kev: 2016 or 27th, I can’t write the double check but one of those two that’s almost 10 years (0:15:14) Codey: Holy heckaroo. (0:15:18) Codey: Oh my gosh. Yeah, so it sure as heck better be an improvement. (0:15:21) Kev: Yeah, it is (0:15:23) Kev: But what’s nice is you don’t like cuz you know, there’s the whole switch to upgrades for all these games or whatever (0:15:28) Kev: You don’t even have to get it (0:15:30) Kev: I mean it’s like my brother Calvin, he played Splatoon (0:15:32) Kev: And so one of the first things he did was like (0:15:34) Kev: Okay, I’m gonna play Splatoon 2 or 3 or whatever on the new Switch (0:15:38) Kev: And oh yeah, you can see right away (0:15:40) Kev: Dang, look at those frame rates (0:15:42) Kev: They’re real now (0:15:44) Codey: as with the like switch copy, the old copy, it’s backwards compatible. Yeah. (0:15:47) Kev: Yeah, with his Switch copy (0:15:49) Kev: Yeah (0:15:50) Kev: Yeah, it’s backwards compatible (0:15:52) Kev: And he didn’t get an upgrade pack or whatever (0:15:54) Kev: Just running on the better hardware (0:15:57) Kev: like you can do the games just there (0:16:00) Kev: they just run better so very very cool but but yeah so switch to it’s it’s it’s (0:16:07) Codey: Yeah, good that good that you got one. So I was last week (0:16:12) Codey: Last weekend was go fest. I believe question mark (0:16:16) Codey: Yeah, last weekend was yeah last weekend was go fest and so a bunch of us were running around, New York City (0:16:17) Kev: this weekend I i heard (0:16:23) Kev: oh oh new york city go fest yes okay (0:16:23) Codey: and (0:16:25) Codey: friend of friend of the pod Chris Rivate (0:16:29) Kev: - Yeah. (0:16:29) Codey: Was trying to find one man (0:16:34) Codey: And he could not find one (0:16:35) Kev: Yeah. (0:16:37) Codey: He went to some targets. He went to the Nintendo store. He went he couldn’t I don’t know if he’s found one that by now but (0:16:40) Kev: Yeah. (0:16:41) Kev: Yeah. (0:16:42) Kev: Ooh. (0:16:44) Kev: Yeah, ooh, they didn’t have the Nintendo Store. (0:16:46) Kev: That’s rough, ‘cause the Nintendo Store (0:16:48) Kev: generally is pretty stocked with these things. (0:16:48) Codey: Yeah (0:16:50) Codey: Well and my partner’s uh (0:16:52) Codey: The building he works in is right is like the Nintendo building. Basically. It’s like right there (0:16:58) Codey: And he said the week before like all leading up to it (0:17:01) Codey: They had like 30 stations where you could play switch to out like just on the sidewalk (0:17:05) Kev: » Yeah. Oh, that’s cool. (0:17:07) Codey: Um, and yeah, and and those were all gone because i’m assuming they probably still (0:17:15) Codey: Uh, but yeah, it was it was crazy. Um, so many people would switch to stuff and and Pokemon people and (0:17:25) Kev: that’s that’s cool that’s cool but hey um I like I hope chris finds it soon um I i know they’re (0:17:32) Kev: actively trying to you know they’re trying to feed the machine and get restocks everywhere (0:17:36) Kev: I don’t think this is a ps5 situation where it’ll be gone for a year but you know fast to selling (0:17:43) Kev: cons of all time like holy mackerel I don’t think anyone expected that it’s it’s there’s demand for (0:17:48) Kev: it I guess um 10 years yep um (0:17:55) Kev: yeah that’s that’s good I mean overall thumbs up what can I say you know um prices it is what it (0:18:01) Kev: is but you know it’s it’s still good like in a vacuum um oh oh you know what i’m going back (0:18:07) Kev: to mario kart world first because I just remember two other thoughts I want to add first of all um (0:18:10) Codey: Okay. (0:18:11) Kev: so the race is now 24 people in a race right which is kind of insane um but this actually (0:18:18) Kev: had some upsides because the tracks are now really wide generally speaking (0:18:24) Codey: - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, okay. (0:18:26) Kev: which you know there’s still turns that are unforgiving and you’ll fall off or whatever (0:18:30) Kev: but like the golden like the golden mushroom you know the one you can just spam and go go go go (0:18:36) Codey: Mm-hmm (0:18:36) Kev: like that one’s really good now because you can actually just stay on the track instead of just (0:18:40) Kev: flying off in his space yeah so I i actually like that part of it um and then one of the new modes (0:18:40) Codey: You’re not gonna bump off of things yeah (0:18:48) Kev: it’s called knockout rally um I think I like it better than the standard grand prix it it feels (0:18:56) Kev: so how it works is you have your 24 racers and they give you like an eight section chunk of the map (0:19:03) Kev: like okay here’s point a here’s point b c yada yada yada and so every checkpoint the bottom (0:19:10) Kev: four people are eliminated from the race so you start at 24 and at the end of it you’re it’s the (0:19:16) Kev: top four racing for first place of the overall thing um and that’s a fun mode I guess because (0:19:21) Kev: Because as you get towards the end, it feels a little less chaotic and more like the… (0:19:25) Kev: Classic Mario Kart, which is nice because you get a taste of both ends of the spectrum. (0:19:33) Kev: Because yeah, let me tell you, the 24 racers, it’s insane because if you’re in first place or dead last, it’s caught anywhere else. (0:19:42) Codey: Yeah. (0:19:42) Kev: It’s it is blink and you’re 10 places back. It’s insanity. But um… (0:19:46) Codey: Yeah, I used to play track media and it had a thing like that. (0:19:51) Kev: Oh! (0:19:52) Codey: Yeah. (0:19:53) Kev: Yeah, it’s good. I like it a lot. (0:19:55) Kev: Good stuff. Um, I don’t know. Yeah, switch to like I said overall thumbs up Mario Kart. Good stuff (0:20:02) Kev: Alright, let’s see other than that like so that was Calvin’s thing my own things (0:20:06) Kev: I’ve continued to play unicorn overlord the strategy game with a million layers of strategy (0:20:11) Kev: I don’t think I mentioned it so that you can adjust the logic of your your actions, which is insane to me (0:20:19) Kev: So like you’ll have an let’s say an archer, right? They fire an arrow (0:20:22) Kev: oh well, you can set conditions on (0:20:25) Kev: the attack like okay use an arrow on people in the back row or people only flying units or people that have health so on and so forth. It’s just more and more layers on complexity like good complexity of stuff you can do. It’s insane. It’s for crazy weirdos like me. I love it so much. It’s called Unicorn Overlord. It’s on Switch, PS5, Xbox. It’s on all sorts of things. I found it for cheap on Switch like 30 bucks. It’s on the (0:20:55) Kev: It was a $60 full price game when it came out, but it’s it’s cheap now. It’s it’s so good. And I reached the what I forget the name of the place. I reached the country of the beast people. It’s a whole country of like can have human anthropomorphic beast people. You got werewolf people, the bear people, owls, what else? Foxes and cats. I don’t remember. It’s a whole zoo of (0:21:25) Kev: beast people, which is really fun. I don’t know like and they’re you know, they’re kind of their own variation of classes. Like the bears are huge. They have a huge shield and a huge hammer. Oh, I love it. I like it’s it’s fun. It’s a lot of fun. It’s it’s flavorful. But yeah, Unicorn Overlord is good. It’s great for a freak like me. Another than that, the big one in line with the Switch 2. We got back the interwebs. I have internet running in my (0:21:55) Codey: Yay! (0:21:55) Kev: house and recording. I’m catching up on stuff. Zen la zone zero had its big 2.0 update while I was gone. And I floated that it’s a lot of stuff. It’s Zen la zone zero. I’m into it. And you know, it’s for me. But but oh my gosh, so much stuff to catch up on. And then that’s true for like all the other stuff that you know, my usual online haunts and whatnot. But um, but yeah, it’s nice to have that. At least I can watch videos at home now. But yeah, that’s (0:22:25) Kev: That’s what’s going on with me a lot of stuff. I guess works busy. Oh, oh, you know what minor little golf clap for myself here (0:22:34) Kev: so I (0:22:36) Kev: The company I started a couple months ago in February (0:22:40) Kev: My role is now sales engineer (0:22:43) Kev: So I am technically part of sales team a salesperson making sales or should be I made my first sale (0:22:49) Kev: It’s a little one, but it is a first sale. So yeah a golf clap for me. I did a thing (0:22:55) Kev: So yeah, there’s that. Okay. All right, Kevin’s done. All right (0:23:00) Kev: Let’s let’s get into it. All right next stuff. All right, what do we what do we got here? (0:23:04) Codey: Yeah, next is, “I Know What You Released Last Month,” so this is the every month we have a segment at the beginning of the first episode of the month or something which we’re doing it now. (0:23:20) Codey: We just talked about things that came out last month. So this is stuff that might have slipped under our radar, might have been on your radar, but you also have not noticed that it came out. (0:23:30) Kev: Yeah, I see one at least one (0:23:32) Codey: Um, so these are these (0:23:34) Codey: are the things so we oh I do see one too. So we have ratopia to pixellia franamon ea (0:23:40) Kev: That’s okay, okay (0:23:44) Codey: pixelshire or ea being early access pixelshire dole octown early access of life and land 1.0 (0:23:53) Codey: fantasy life I the girl who steals time and battle country do any of these jump out to you (0:23:58) Kev: Okay (0:24:00) Kev: Well, I got one ratopia. It’s a good game. We did the Kelly and all the nepsilon it you go listen to it (0:24:07) Kev: So that’s a thumbs up from me. Um (0:24:09) Kev: The fantasy life I’ve talked about that. I played the DS once good game gonna get the sequel eventually. I’m (0:24:17) Kev: Not yet, but I will get it. But the big one that I missed I didn’t realize it was out cattle (0:24:24) Kev: cattle country (0:24:26) Kev: Good mood, you know (0:24:29) Kev: I want to do that (0:24:31) Kev: So yeah, I’ll be looking at that. I didn’t realize it was out (0:24:35) Codey: - Mm-hmm. (0:24:36) Kev: What about you anything catch your eye (0:24:39) Codey: Of Life and Land caught my eye. (0:24:41) Codey: So that’s a game that I’ve been wanting to play, (0:24:43) Codey: but it’s a terrible time, terrible time to come out. (0:24:47) Codey: So anything could come out for the rest of the year (0:24:51) Codey: and it would be a terrible time. (0:24:51) Kev: No, it’s gonna be so we’re gonna need I know what you released last year (0:24:53) Codey: It’s just gonna be a bad time for me. (0:24:58) Codey: Yeah, and then I can go, it’ll be at the end of the year (0:25:01) Codey: and that’s when I will just have it. (0:25:03) Codey: I will have all the money (0:25:05) Codey: and a big fat job with all those jobs that still exist. (0:25:07) Kev: You go (0:25:09) Codey: Ha, ha, cry. (0:25:14) Kev: Man (0:25:14) Codey: And I’ll have so much money (0:25:15) Codey: and I’ll be like, oh, what can I spend money on? (0:25:18) Codey: No, so, okay. (0:25:19) Kev: Well, I (0:25:20) Codey: Yeah, that, but what? (0:25:21) Kev: Just I just want to add on on that note (0:25:24) Kev: so the company I work for their headquarters is actually in China and (0:25:30) Kev: Our products are manufactured in China with steel from China (0:25:35) Kev: And again, I started this and (0:25:37) Kev: February right like right early February. So like too much jobs into my or two weeks into my job (0:25:44) Kev: You know things happened and then I was like, well, I might be screwed (0:25:49) Codey: Yeah, it’s just up in the air. (0:25:52) Kev: Yup, no, I say that so much jokingly so far it’s okay (0:25:56) Kev: I did not felt shaky security or anything but still the the timing of that was oh (0:26:02) Kev: That was that was wild. Huh? Anyways, but like I said general (0:26:05) Codey: Yeah, it’s a great time to work in conservation, tell you what. (0:26:08) Kev: Oh (0:26:13) Kev: It’s it’s general gestures at the world, right? (0:26:18) Codey: We are here for escapism. (0:26:22) Kev: Yeah, oh, yeah, I want to escape there’s a bandit (0:26:29) Codey: You want to be a bandit? Is it bandit like Bluey’s dad? (0:26:34) Kev: no not that bandit you know we had um momo con in atlanta one of our big cons that one’s very (0:26:41) Kev: like anime focused for whatever reason they brought uh the voices of bandit and chili (0:26:45) Kev: I didn’t go see them but they were here and like dang that was a good get they were they’re like (0:26:52) Kev: the the headlines they’re like top of billing of the the guest list yeah yeah they would be um (0:26:54) Codey: they would be. We have right now, we have a convention near us that has a giant reunion (0:27:04) Codey: of people from Twilight. There’s also Dante Basco, who plays Zuko in Avatar. He has some (0:27:06) Kev: Oh! (0:27:13) Kev: Yo. Yo, we… (0:27:15) Codey: other roles, but my favorite role of his was Rufio and Hook. But yeah, that’s there’s some (0:27:23) Codey: good names in it. (0:27:25) Kev: Yeah, MobileCon was strong this year. They had some good names. I think they also had some Avatar people, um… (0:27:32) Kev: I know, but yeah, but Band and Chili were another like, “Oh, here’s the ones we were highlighting on. Here’s the, like I said, top building and a little guest list or whatever.” (0:27:41) Kev: Um… (0:27:42) Kev: Ah, Louie’s so good. (0:27:45) Kev: We, we gotta, we still have to do a greenhouse episode of How We Talked About It, and I’d love to do it. (0:27:46) Codey: I just need it back. (0:27:49) Codey: Oh my gosh, I’m not ready to cry. (0:27:51) Kev: Just… (0:27:53) Kev: Well, now we… (0:27:56) Kev: Yeah, there’s a lot of episodes that get emotional reactions, more than you’d think. (0:28:04) Codey: - Yeah, there was one that just like out of nowhere, (0:28:06) Codey: hit me and I was just sobbing. (0:28:07) Kev: Alright, which one? (0:28:10) Codey: No, I’m not, wait, it’s a great way for the greenhouse. (0:28:12) Codey: I’ll tell you not on the, yeah. (0:28:13) Kev: Alright, we’ll stay on the greenhouse, okay? (0:28:15) Kev: You know, look, it’s not my number one, but any time they show an older, bluey, I just scream. (0:28:16) Codey: We’ll do a greenhouse sometime soon without that. (0:28:24) Codey: - Yeah, yeah, yeah. (0:28:28) Codey: With the tree and the camping and the, (0:28:29) Kev: Alright. (0:28:30) Kev: Oh, that was a good one. (0:28:32) Codey: that was a good one. (0:28:34) Codey: So that is what released last month. (0:28:35) Kev: Alright, you know what else was good? (0:28:39) Codey: Are you gonna talk about the wholesome directs? (0:28:40) Kev: I was, because that was… (0:28:42) Kev: Yeah, oh yeah, okay, well yeah. (0:28:43) Kev: But that was the stuff that came out. (0:28:45) Kev: Was there any, you know, I’m going too fast here. (0:28:47) Kev: Is there anything else you wanted to talk about on the stuff that came out? (0:28:49) Codey: - No, no. (0:28:50) Kev: Okay, now, I mean, I’d have to… (0:28:53) Kev: I don’t remember all these names off the top of my head (0:28:55) Kev: So maybe a missing one, but I mean either anyways, but yes wholesome direct that was also good Cody (0:29:00) Kev: Do you have any thoughts on the wholesome? (0:29:02) Codey: So, uh, the question that I’ll pose specifically was did I have anything that you guys didn’t say I didn’t listen to last week’s episode yet (0:29:10) Codey: I’m sorry, so (0:29:10) Kev: That’s fine. No, that’s fine. I’m usually a couple weeks behind myself. (0:29:13) Codey: But (0:29:14) Codey: but also I just um, I just like (0:29:20) Codey: Watch the first like I watched the whole host and direct but a lot of it was I was just like I (0:29:26) Codey: Expected that yep. Okay. Yeah, I’ve heard this is coming out. Okay, this this is to be expected (0:29:30) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:29:32) Codey: The only thing that I was super stoked about and I wrote a note down and I put underlined an exclamation point (0:29:38) Codey: Was leaf-blowing games (0:29:40) Kev: Yeah (0:29:42) Kev: So I’m like (0:29:42) Codey: Um, yeah (0:29:44) Kev: Powerwash simulator has established a genre like it’s wild but here we are (0:29:51) Kev: It’s it’s just that satisfaction of I don’t know clean like sing something becoming clean. I guess like I (0:29:59) Kev: Guess that’s I mean I so one of my little habits quarks. I am infamous for (0:30:08) Kev: adjusting like (0:30:10) Kev: If I’m just standing by some are just like waiting for something or whatever and I see like a dusty area I will start (0:30:17) Kev: dusting that thing cuz I (0:30:18) Codey: Yeah, I do stuff like that too. And then it’s really awkward when I’m doing it. And I’m waiting for my friend to get like ready to go do something and then I’m like cleaning up their house and they’re like, Oh, I’m sorry. Am I dirty? And I’m like, No, I just need to do this. (0:30:20) Kev: That’s that’s (0:30:29) Kev: Yeah (0:30:38) Kev: Yeah (0:30:40) Kev: Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah, so it’s no I’m not trying to shame or do anything just I can make like there’s an opportunity to make a dust (0:30:47) Kev: Bunny here, and that’s that’s that that’s a good one (0:30:48) Codey: Or like, I’m sorry, I looked and this plant, uh, like I checked it and it desperately needs water. So I don’t say that. Oh, that was a big. (0:30:56) Kev: Yeah, oh (0:30:59) Kev: Okay, you know that that one might be a little harder like I could see it cuz you know that that one’s like (0:31:06) Kev: Active care of a living thing right like the dust thing that that just happens passively (0:31:11) Kev: But like I get it and I’m like I’m this. Oh, that’s that’s rough. But um (0:31:17) Kev: But yeah, but it’s the same thing. Yeah, just just chicken something offer, you know (0:31:22) Kev: Hi, yeah, you know what hydrating a plant that is a good one right like seeing the water (0:31:26) Codey: Yeah and like you can, especially like I know how to, I’ve had a lot of these plants like I (0:31:26) Kev: Go in and the soil absorbs it (0:31:32) Codey: go to a friend’s house I see their pothos is looking kind of sad and then I can also first of (0:31:37) Codey: all pop those you can just water the crap out of those they’re fine but like or a monstera or (0:31:42) Codey: something and I you can check the soil you can just dip a finger into the soil and if it is bone (0:31:46) Codey: bone dry just pour a little water and just give her a little love. Especially as grad students like (0:31:50) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:31:53) Codey: we usually have so much going on like (0:31:55) Kev: Yeah (0:31:56) Codey: it’s good to just like take care of something for someone so yeah that (0:31:58) Kev: Yeah, yeah for sure yeah, absolutely I get that and like us (0:32:03) Codey: leaf-blowing game though so it was funny because like I was listening to this (0:32:04) Kev: Yeah. Oh, yeah (0:32:09) Codey: while I was the wholesome direct in the um in the museum that I worked in and (0:32:14) Kev: Uh-huh (0:32:14) Codey: people that were working in the museum were like what are you freaking out (0:32:17) Codey: about I’m like this is a leaf-blowing game and like someone was like what do (0:32:21) Codey: you mean and then someone else started explaining they’re like yeah it’s like (0:32:24) Codey: Like, it’s like– (0:32:26) Codey: like, leafblowing, or, like, there’s a power wash one. (0:32:29) Codey: But, like, why don’t you just, like, get one in real life? (0:32:33) Codey: Why don’t you just go get a leafblower? (0:32:35) Codey: And I’m like, first of all, that’s money. (0:32:36) Kev: It’s money. (0:32:37) Codey: Second of all, I can’t– (0:32:38) Kev: Yeah! (0:32:42) Codey: like, it wouldn’t take me that long to leafblow my yard. (0:32:45) Codey: And then it would be done. (0:32:46) Kev: Yeah (0:32:46) Codey: And then I would have nothing left to leafblow. (0:32:49) Kev: Yeah, yeah (0:32:50) Codey: So I also actually have a leafblower already. (0:32:53) Codey: But we– (0:32:55) Kev: Yeah (0:32:56) Codey: Yeah, this is different. (0:32:57) Codey: Like, I can power wash a children’s playground (0:33:01) Codey: as a Stegosaurus, and I can try and get the soccer ball (0:33:03) Codey: to go up the slide and get extra points. (0:33:05) Kev: Yeah, that’s true man, so you know, I live in an apartment so I get even less leaf blower powerwash opportunities or whatever, but (0:33:07) Codey: Like, that’s just– that’s just fun. (0:33:10) Codey: That’s just pure fun. (0:33:21) Kev: The one thing I’ll do on I don’t even do it out of like generous and most times I do out of spite or impatience (0:33:29) Kev: There’ll be shrubs or trees that are just they’re just growing way too long (0:33:33) Kev: Like actually interferes (0:33:35) Kev: Like I need extra clearance for walking or I have more of a hassle for me to go under so I’ll go out and trim him up and oh there we go (0:33:36) Codey: Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm. (0:34:02) Kev: I can now walk without having to bend. (0:34:05) Kev: That’s why leaf blower simulator exists for these exact reasons. (0:34:09) Codey: It’s intruding on public space. (0:34:11) Codey: They needed to take care of it and they didn’t. (0:34:35) Kev: Let’s start with updates to games that exist going from old to new. (0:34:40) Kev: We are going to start with Critter crops. (0:34:44) Kev: The witchery born. What a name for an update. (0:34:48) Kev: The witchery born. (0:34:48) Codey: Yeah, that’s a pretty, pretty, like, metal name, yeah, exactly. (0:34:51) Kev: Metal. (0:34:56) Kev: It’s a very cute, cozy art style on critter crops. (0:34:59) Kev: It’s very adorable. I love it. (0:35:01) Kev: called the witch reborn you know it’s the fear street (0:35:03) Codey: Yeah. (0:35:05) Kev: three three four um it. Mm hmm. (0:35:09) Codey: Yeah, so this one adds a new vendor, (0:35:12) Codey: which I’m assuming is the witch, a new grimoire, new UI. (0:35:16) Codey: It adds new turn by turn combat and different customization (0:35:21) Codey: options. (0:35:22) Codey: But I think the biggest thing for y’all, for you and Al, (0:35:25) Codey: and probably for our audience, is complete controller support. (0:35:30) Codey: And they say, quote, this one was a doozy to. (0:35:33) Codey: Implement. Unfortunately, it’s not perfect. (0:35:35) Codey: So we recommend not swapping back and forth between joystick and mouse and keyboard. (0:35:42) Kev: Are there people who do that? (0:35:44) Codey: I thought that’s a choice. (0:35:49) Kev: You know what, that’s fine. Let those people- I think those people deserve it, if that’s what they want to do. (0:35:54) Kev: Let them- we’re introducing updates to make their lives more miserable. (0:36:00) Kev: Freaks! (0:36:04) Kev: I’m kidding. Obviously there’s- I’m sure- I look- I don’t mouse and keyboard at all in general, so… (0:36:10) Codey: Or maybe your controller’s dead. (0:36:11) Codey: Maybe you have ADHD and you forgot to charge it. (0:36:12) Kev: Yeah. (0:36:15) Codey: Can’t relate, but– (0:36:15) Kev: Yeah, look, the obvious use case is you need to type something, you know, a thing pops up, well… (0:36:20) Codey: Oh, true, true. (0:36:22) Kev: Just keyboard away, like, yeah. No, I’m sure it exists, but… (0:36:24) Codey: Multitasking. (0:36:28) Kev: Yeah, alright, but that- that- like, I’m just looking at this big list, um… (0:36:33) Kev: That- that’s a lot of stuff, um, like, holy mackerel, that is- they just had a truckload of updates on their little steam blurb, (0:36:42) Kev: like, revamp combat, that’s huge, holy mackerel. (0:36:46) Codey: » Mm-hmm. (0:36:47) Kev: Um, good for them, um, and controller support, yeah, that’s a big one. (0:36:48) Codey: » Yeah. Go for them. (0:36:51) Codey: So this is technically their 2.0 update. (0:36:53) Codey: So it’s already out, it’s 1999, (0:36:55) Codey: it’s only on Windows. (0:36:57) Codey: So this just adds some new content and updates some things. (0:37:03) Codey: No, sir. I’m not sure if you heard the dog. (0:37:06) Kev: I might want to play this. This game is so cute. I’m just looking at this art style. It’s it’s (0:37:11) Codey: I think when we initially looked at this, (0:37:11) Kev: adorable (0:37:14) Codey: of the art style was not my favorite. (0:37:16) Codey: But it’s growing on me. It’s growing. (0:37:17) Kev: I (0:37:18) Kev: like it and these these (0:37:21) Kev: Everything’s kind of bouncing cute. I look just look at it people to go click on the link in the show notes. It’s good one (0:37:28) Kev: That’s critter. Yeah, it’s 2.0. You’re right (0:37:30) Kev: Um, I buy will likely especially now has controller support. Yeah, this one’s on my list now (0:37:36) Kev: officially oh (0:37:39) Kev: All right, um, what do we have next? (0:37:44) Codey: Next up is Travelers Rest, so they have a new thing called Pet Party, (0:37:54) Codey: which is an expansion, not an expansion, a DLC question. (0:37:58) Kev: I have pet parties at home. It’s called lucky wants to just jump on me and lick my face a lot and man (0:38:04) Codey: So this is the 0.7, 0.1 update, so this is still in early access, still earlier on, and they basically (0:38:11) Codey: we just added a pet. I think he had a cat before, but I’m (0:38:14) Codey: going to have a dog, dog will follow you around and it’ll (0:38:17) Codey: dig things up. And when you see like the little they dig and (0:38:22) Codey: there’s a little symbol, you can also dig and you can get stuff (0:38:25) Codey: out of the ground. It also adds the artifacts table. So you (0:38:31) Codey: might uncover some archaeological things. And then (0:38:35) Codey: you can use the artifacts table to make them into things to (0:38:39) Codey: decorate your home. So I think the dogs are cute. (0:38:44) Codey: They have a lot of options for it. Also, yeah, also in the (0:38:48) Kev: Yeah, this is Saint Bernard, that’s wild. (0:38:53) Codey: building. So you get these in the from a new building with (0:38:57) Codey: new NPCs, they’re called the buildings called the burrow is (0:39:01) Codey: basically an animal shelter. They have like a red panda in (0:39:05) Codey: there. They have some other stuff that currently you cannot (0:39:10) Codey: get, but it it there it would be nice. It would be (0:39:14) Codey: nice to get some of this stuff. Yeah. (0:39:16) Kev: Yeah, I can’t have a breadband in real life, so you know I’d like one virtually (0:39:22) Kev: That they have a dog with a cone on it (0:39:24) Kev: I don’t think I’ve seen that before in a game or you know one of these cottagecore games so props to them for that (0:39:30) Codey: I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in a game. (0:39:33) Kev: You might be right I don’t think I have either (0:39:36) Codey: I can’t believe Sims hasn’t done that yet. (0:39:38) Kev: Yeah, I’m surprised Sims hasn’t done that for people (0:39:45) Codey: I wonder if that’s a choice you can have. (0:39:46) Kev: You (0:39:49) Codey: And then, you know, I wouldn’t be surprised. (0:39:49) Kev: Know (0:39:51) Kev: Yeah, yeah, I don’t I’m never surprised by anything in Sims. I was just like yeah sure I believe they’d do it (0:39:58) Kev: You know I’ve always been a little hard on travelers rest because it’s you know so (0:40:04) Kev: Star Dewey, but man they’ve really made this game robust. They’re supporting it law is strong like good for them (0:40:13) Kev: Yeah, it’s impressive. I you know to the tip of my head (0:40:16) Kev: Cuz that’s a that’s good work (0:40:20) Kev: Is it is it changing my mind? Maybe a little I’m impressed (0:40:23) Codey: Well, it’s not at 1.0 yet, so you’ve got some time. (0:40:27) Kev: It is not one but you know what yeah, that’s right that that is my general bar (0:40:32) Kev: So what you know, but you’ve caught my interest, you know 1.1 drops. Maybe I’ll pick it up. Remember (0:40:40) Kev: All right, you know what is past 1.0 pixel. Yeah is we talked we actually mint (0:40:46) Kev: Didn’t we mention it? Yeah (0:40:47) Codey: Yeah, so it came out last month, and they have now brought out Steam Deck and controller support and key rebinding support. (0:40:59) Codey: And here, Al has a comment. (0:41:05) Codey: Al, not on the pod, but he commented, “Both of these should have been there at launch.” (0:41:10) Codey: Quote. (0:41:10) Kev: You know what, yes, and you know what, I’m going to say that as a blanket statement for any game on a PC. (0:41:11) Codey: Yeah. (0:41:18) Kev: Like, okay, maybe not every, there’s like, I’m sure there’s a 1% like, this game does not need a controller, but if your game could use a controller at launch with controller support, please, please. (0:41:30) Codey: Yeah, so this is what Al said, and I am going to retweet, share, like, subscribe to this comment. (0:41:37) Codey: Quote, “I am not going to stop complaining when games launch without even the most (0:41:41) Codey: basic controller or remapping support. It should be built into games from the very first time (0:41:47) Codey: you do any key mapping in the first place. It is not just for Steam Deck users, it is an (0:41:52) Codey: accessibility feature. Granted, they did add both within two months, but they should have been there (0:42:00) Codey: version.” Yeah. (0:42:00) Kev: yep yep and you know what like I for those early access or betas like I you know I can get it you (0:42:07) Kev: know how to control support but if you do 1.0 you’re crossing that line you you gotta do it just (0:42:08) Codey: Yeah. (0:42:13) Kev: come on you gotta look a little professional right like and I get it can be hard I get it that can (0:42:19) Kev: be worked the what was it the the other critter crops they said that was hard and you know what (0:42:24) Kev: they’re probably right but you just (0:42:27) Codey: - Oh yeah, you’re basically like releasing your game (0:42:31) Codey: or just some people, but like for some of your base. (0:42:38) Codey: But if there are people who are reliant on controller (0:42:42) Codey: support or keyboard remapping to be able to play a game, (0:42:46) Codey: period, then you’re basically limiting, (0:42:51) Codey: those people can’t play your game at launch. (0:42:53) Codey: And so everyone else is gonna be off playing it (0:42:55) Codey: and enjoying it. (0:42:57) Codey: They’re going to be Squidward in his house, looking at SpongeBob and Patrick running around, having fun. (0:42:58) Kev: Mm-hmm (0:43:07) Kev: That meme is so good (0:43:08) Codey: I love that meme. I post that meme all the time. (0:43:11) Kev: So, I mean really, you know like I mean you and me are roughly in the same age (0:43:17) Kev: Group, right? So, you know those first two seasons spongebob that we know when they kind of defined a large part of our brain and life (0:43:25) Kev: and vocabulary on but (0:43:28) Kev: But the memes are very strong from spongebob. That’s such a good one (0:43:28) Codey: - Yeah, they are, they’re endearing. (0:43:34) Kev: Yep, oh (0:43:36) Kev: But okay. Well that all said it is out on pixalia. Um, so good for them for finally getting it out (0:43:44) Kev: You know just a few warning to you know using our (0:43:49) Kev: Influencer power here on all these games that clearly listen to us (0:43:53) Kev: Game devs listening to us put your put your controls report at once (0:43:57) Codey: - I mean, I will, I’ll jump on a high horse. (0:43:59) Codey: I think that like these games are geared (0:44:02) Codey: for neurodivergent folks towards like, (0:44:05) Codey: they are for people who are different. (0:44:06) Kev: Yeah. That’s a good point. (0:44:10) Codey: And so it’s something that like, yeah, (0:44:13) Codey: like not having that out at the jump is like kind of weird (0:44:19) Codey: to exclude basically your biggest fan base. (0:44:22) Codey: It’s like, if they were like, oh, (0:44:24) Kev: Mm hmm. Mm hmm. Yeah. (0:44:24) Codey: we’re going to make a new harvest moon. (0:44:27) Codey: game but you can only be a boy and then a month in suddenly you can be a girl and you can be (0:44:33) Codey: a different race and you like so I it’s it’s 2025 y’all we are past this I thought (0:44:42) Kev: Yeah. (0:44:44) Codey: but yeah good on them for getting it out ASAP but uh just to be warned else um please have this out (0:44:52) Codey: like after Trump (0:44:56) Kev: All right, what do we got next? (0:45:00) Codey: Next up, sorry, next up is Lightyear Frontier. (0:45:03) Codey: They have their new ELC slash what it called, (0:45:08) Codey: just content update. (0:45:09) Codey: Yeah, it’s just content update. (0:45:11) Codey: It’s the shipping gear update. (0:45:13) Codey: It just adds a lot ton of new content. (0:45:18) Kev: settings and things. (0:45:18) Codey: So yeah, settings, there’s modular building, (0:45:21) Codey: there’s new tools, there’s new types to cross and mounds. (0:45:26) Codey: There’s mech, there’s health. (0:45:28) Kev: health? What do you mean adding mech health? There’s an inn already? (0:45:30) Codey: And your mech, yeah, it’s true. (0:45:36) Codey: New minerals to the game world, a day length setting, (0:45:40) Codey: a setting where you can auto hide the heads up display, (0:45:43) Codey: which is super dope, adding a quick deposit accelerator (0:45:46) Codey: in storage contract menus, (0:45:48) Codey: 100% love whenever you add quick deposit things. (0:45:52) Codey: You don’t have to click a button a million times. (0:45:55) Codey: Um, I mean, it seems like, uh, it’s, it’s, uh, yeah. (0:46:00) Codey: It’s an update that kind of fixes a lot of the small little, yeah, yeah, um, yeah, they (0:46:04) Kev: they’re literally changing physics in the game that’s there’s several bullets on physics (0:46:12) Codey: also have, uh, some changes to physics and some bug fixes and they have a new roadmap (0:46:17) Codey: and the new roadmap, um, includes, so in development, so we’re still in early access for this game. (0:46:24) Codey: The things that are in development, so they are happening, um, are (0:46:30) Codey: more mech customization, more ruins and lore, biome, building pieces, um, in exploration (0:46:37) Codey: stuff they’re thinking about doing, but, uh, is not quite on the horizon, is mech powered (0:46:44) Codey: resource hauling, so I guess your mech’s carrying resources for you, new hazards and terrain, (0:46:51) Codey: and then some other things for consideration, if I see controller support in here, I’m gonna (0:46:56) Codey: can lose it. Um, multiplayer. (0:46:58) Kev: Hahahaha at least (0:47:00) Codey: Or expanded automation, uh, creative mode, fast travel, mod support. Okay, cool. (0:47:07) Kev: Mm-hmm. Well, I’d say yeah (0:47:11) Kev: Yeah, do you think road map should have at least target tentative dates? (0:47:16) Kev: I feel like they should because I don’t know that that feels like the map part to me, but (0:47:23) Kev: That’s just like a general statement like a month (0:47:26) Kev: You know, because they list all this, but there’s no dates or anything. (0:47:28) Kev: You know, again, I know that work is hard. They’d probably be wrong anyways, but… (0:47:35) Codey: It’s nice to give people some idea because

La nanotecnóloga y divulgadora Anna Morales nos habla de la ciencia detrás de ficciones como 'Avatar'

(June 17,2025)Big changes are coming to Disneyland: ‘Monsters' is out, ‘Avatar' is in. Disney rides have come and gone. Faced with paying hundreds of sex abuse claims, LAUSD authorizes up to $500MIL in bonds.

Avatar is a film that hardly needs an introduction, as it is currently the highest grossing movie of all time. It's an incredibly impressive feat to remain so dominant even 16 years later, not to mention the technological achievement needed to create a film that still looks great today. Does it hold up as an artistic work? Listen to our review to hear what we think!    Cinema Spectator is a movie podcast hosted by Isaac Ransom, Juzo Greenwood, and Cameron Tuttle.

A CLASSIC ROCKER FINDS OUT HE HAS A LOVE CHILD FROM THE 80's, some insane Movies announced and A wild list of celebrities and how they caught their significant others cheating… it's like celebs are just like us guys!CRAP ON FRIDAY Rick Moranis has been gone way too long. Even those new "Ghostbusters" movies didn't lure him back to Hollywood. But I am quite excited to announce that he WILL return to once again play Dark Helmet in "Spaceballs 2"!!! Bill Pullman will return as the hero Lone Starr, too. And Mel Brooks will be back as Yogurt . . . and, presumably . . . President Skroob. (He played both characters in the original.) Josh Gad co-wrote the script, and he's expected to be in it, too. Pullman's son Lewis Pullman has also been cast, along with Keke Palmer . . . but there's no word who they're playing. There's also no word on any other returning cast members. Obviously, John Candy, Joan Rivers, and Dick Van Patten won't be back, since they're no longer with us. Mel released the first teaser yesterday. There's no footage, since filming hasn't begun yet. It starts with a text crawl that makes fun of all the "Star Wars" prequels, sequels, sequels to the prequels, prequels to the sequels, and TV spin-offs. Then it lists all the "Dune", "Jurassic Park", "Avatar", and Marvel movies, plus DC's TWO attempts to start a cinematic universe . . . and just about every other overdone franchise you can name. Then, after a quick appearance from Mel, we get a shot of Rick Moranis' cracked helmet, and the tagline: "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." Which sounds like a possible title but it's spaceballs and mel brooks so it could be anything. Here is Mel making his announcement. Jerry Seinfeld Proposes ‘Live-Action Sequel' to 'Bee Movie'Jerry Seinfeld has people buzzin' with this idea!The comedic genius posted about the possibility of a “live-action sequel” to his 2007 animated hit Bee Movie.“Bee Movie, which came out nearly 20 years ago, is #4 on Netflix,” he wrote on Instagram showing a hand holding a tennis ball with a honey bee on it. The next slide was the movie's poster, an image of Seinfeld's character Barry B. Benson similarly straddling a tennis ball.“Today, my friend Spike Feresten, one of the writers on the film, was playing tennis and this happened."He continued, “Clearly a sign. Time for a live-action sequel..?" DreamWorks' Bee Movie, which Seinfeld produced, co-wrote, and starred in along with Renée Zellweger, has become a cult favorite since its release.Bee Movie also featured the voices of Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Chris Rock, Kathy Bates, Megan Mullally, Oprah Winfrey, and several celebrities appearing as animated versions of themselves, including Larry King, Ray Liotta, and Sting.Saint Louis' own Nelly and Ashanti are putting their lives on TV for all to see. They announced an upcoming reality show called Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together.A show synopsis says Nelly and Ashanti "rekindle their love, navigate the ups and downs of being newlyweds and new parents, and juggle their careers."The eight-episode series will air on Peacock starting June 26th.A DNA Test Connects Billy Idol To A Son He Didn't Know He HadDetails on the lovechild Billy Idol didn't know he had until a few years ago have surfaced.Idol's daughter, Bonnie, shared in the new doc, 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead', "My husband just surprised me with a DNA test as a Christmas present [a few years ago]. Then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I'm like, who is this? This Brant. His info reads, 'New York, 1985, looking for my biological dad.' I was like, ‘What?'"Brant, Idol's lovechild, grew up believing his dad was someone else until a different DNA questioned his mother's claims about his father. After confronting his mom, she told Brant, "Well, it's pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol."Fans have done the math and calculate that Brant was conceived during Idol's wildly successful 1984 'Rebel Yell' tour.Idol has whole-heartedly accepted Brant as family, saying, "I really enjoyed being a dad. I always wanted a boy and a girl, and I finagled my way into a boy and a girl. I actually had a son that I didn't realize, who I fathered on the Rebel Yell tour without knowing it. So I somehow finagled this as well."Brant was at Idol's Walk of Fame ceremony back in 2023.Prime Video Will Soon Show Double The AdsAmazon Prime Video is about to double the number of commercials shown per hour on its ad-supported membership level. An Adweek report got the news from an Amazon spokesperson about the amount of commercials going to "four to six minutes per hour" from the two to three minutes that Prime users are used to. In 2024, subscribers who had ad-free access were forced to pay an extra $3 a month to maintain the status. Jay-Z Loses $1 Million NBA Finals Bet Jay-Z is out $1 million after losing a bet on the NBA Finals. Jay placed a bet prior to the series, banking on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the championship in five games. After Wednesday night's Thunder loss to the Indiana Pacers, OKC can't win the series unless they do it in six or seven games. Jay-Z would have won $3.5 million if the bet had cashed in. With a net worth of $2.5 billion, we're sure Jay-Z will be alright. Ok you guys remember Spinal Tap? The Album cover debate with the label and why it became an all black cover or as Nigel would say NONE MORE BLACK? It was because the original had a woman on all fours with a dog leash on and it was deemed sexist…. To which Nigel replies “Whats wrong with being sexy? Well get this, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album yesterday, and it's causing a lot of controversy. It's called "Man's Best Friend", and the cover has Sabrina on all fours, in front of a man who's pulling a handful of her hair. A women's advocacy group in Scotland called it "regressive", saying it reduces women to, quote, "pets, props, and possessions," and promotes "an element of violence and control." Sabrina's fans are defending it as SATIRE, and a commentary on how badly women are treated. And some are pointing out that the first single, "Manchild", actually makes FUN of men. HERE IS A CLIP OF THATMeanwhile, in the new "Rolling Stone" cover story, Sabrina talks about being criticized for the sexual imagery in her stage show. She says, quote "It's always so funny to me when people complain. They're like, 'All she does is sing about this.' But those are the songs that you've made popular. Clearly you love sex. You're obsessed with it." She adds, quote, "I truly feel like I've never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity. I'm not just talking about me. I'm talking about every female artist that is making art right now." Pope Leo isn't even the most famous guy in his family. The "New York Times" researched his family tree, and found out that he's related to a bunch of celebrities. The link is an ancestor from about six generations back. He name was Louis Boucher de Grandpre, and he was born in Quebec.And because of him, Leo is distant cousins with Justin Bieber, Justin Trudeau, Angelina Jolie, Hillary Clinton, Jack Kerouac, and Madonna. It's interesting that Leo would be related to Madonna, given that the Catholic Church has condemned her several times . . . most famously when she released her "Like a Prayer" video in 1989. A few years ago, Madonna reached out to Pope Francis, asking to meet with him to discuss "important matters." She told him, quote, "I've been ex-communicated 3 times. It doesn't seem fair." If you've ever wondered how the creators of "Friends" came up with the character of Joey Tribbiani . . . we might just have the answer this morning. Joey Lawrence claims Matt LeBlanc's character was based on HIS character Joey Russo from "Blossom". Lawrence says, quote, "Joey Russo was so successful that when they were creating 'Friends', they wanted a 25-year-old version of that." Supposedly, Matt's character wasn't even originally called Joey, but they changed it because the "Blossom" character was so successful. Joey even claims that Matt was sent to tapings of "Blossom" where he would, quote, "sit up in the audience with a yellow notepad and take notes on how I portrayed Joey Russo." He says they wanted Matt to bring the "innocence" of Joey Russo to Joey Tribbiani, so the character could, quote, "get away with his womanizing." I guess the Grammys were sick of hearing about whether Beyoncé deserved to win Best Country Album for "Cowboy Carter". So, they just announced a major change. For next year's Grammys, the award formally known as Best Country Album will now be called Best Contemporary Country Album . . . and they will also be adding a new category: Best Traditional Country Album. There's a lot to unpack here. And one year after Beyoncé wins makes the timing of this all the more clickbait-y. According to the Grammy website, "traditional country music", quote, "adheres to the more traditional sound structures of the country genre, including rhythm and singing style, lyrical content, as well as traditional country instrumentation such as acoustic guitar, steel guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, piano, and live drums." Where "contemporary country music", quote, "remains reminiscent and relevant to the legacy of country music's culture, while also engaging in more contemporary music forms." Someone tweeted, "Morgan Wallen and Post Malone better not be in the traditional country category at the Grammys, because in what world are they traditional country?" Wait, hold up. When Morgan collaborated with Alvin and the Chipmunks, that wasn't traditional country??New in Theaters: "How to Train Your Dragon", "Materialists", and "The Life of Chuck" There's nothing like a good breakup story. Here are seven times a celebrity found out their partner was cheating in an unconventional way: 1. Demi Moore learned that Ashton Kutcher was having an affair in 2011, from a Google Alert. When she called him on it, he admitted it right away. Her response was, quote, "Are you [effing] kidding me?" 2. Britney Spears started dating lawyer David Lucado in 2012. But in 2014, her father found out there was paparazzi footage of David kissing another woman. He bought it to prevent it from being released, and Britney broke it off. 3. Kourtney Kardashian dumped Scott Disick in 2008, after finding texts on his phone from a contact called, quote, "my wife." They did the on-and-off thing until 2015, when photos emerged of Scott with another woman in France. 4. Elizabeth Hurley found out Hugh Grant was cheating on her in 1995, when he got arrested for GETTING IT ON with Sunset Boulevard prostitute Divine Brown in his car. They didn't break up until 2000, and they're still friends. 5. Laura Dern found out Billy Bob Thornton was being unfaithful when the news broke that he had ELOPED with Angelina Jolie in 2000. She was away making a movie, and she never saw it coming. 6. Eva Longoria's marriage to NBA star Tony Parker ended in 2010, after she found inappropriate texts with another woman on his phone. 7. This one's ancient history, but it was a HUGE tabloid story back in the day: In 1958, actress Debbie Reynolds was missing her husband, Eddie Fisher, because he was supposedly away on tour. So she decided to give her friend Elizabeth Taylor a call . . . and who answered Liz's phone? Eddie FREAKIN' Fisher. (!!!) Eddie left Debbie and married Liz, but that only lasted five years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

For decades, writers and filmmakers have imagined worlds where characters can do things like watch a double sunset (on Tatooine, of course), or stand among the sand dunes of Arrakis, or gaze at the gas-giant planet Polyphemus from the moon Pandora. But even as works like Star Wars, Dune, and Avatar have enticed us with their fictional renditions of planets beyond our reach, astronomers have slowly begun to compile a set of scientific truths about the actual exoplanets. In this episode, Jacke talks to author Keith Cooper (Amazing Worlds of Science Fiction and Science Fact) about the realities beyond imaginary planets. PLUS Jacke takes a look at two AI-related pieces of news: the recovery of writing long thought to be lost on a scroll charred by Vesuvian ash, and a summer reading list that surprised everyone - including the authors who made the list for reasons they were not expecting.

This week brought emotional farewells and new beginnings, as Disney fans witnessed the closure of Muppet One Last Look at Muppet Courtyard (Grand Avenue) and Muppet Vision 3D Before It Closes ForeverVision 3D and saw fresh concept art for both coasts. As part of the WDW Weekly Update, here's what unfolded. Muppet*Vision 3D Officially Closes. It's official: MuppetVision 3D* has closed its doors at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Sam and Greg take a final stroll through the attraction, sharing behind-the-scenes views and paying tribute to the classic. Alongside video highlights and personal memories, we break down the Top 10 Quotes from Muppet*Vision 3D—including Fozzie's “banana cream pie”, Sam Eagle's patriotic finale, and Statler and Waldorf's relentless heckling. Fans of Jim Henson's legacy won't want to miss this nostalgic send-off. New Courtyard Concept Art Debuts With the attraction officially closed, new concept art has appeared on the construction walls surrounding the former Muppet Vision area. The updated visuals reflect a slight tweak in the Monsters Inc. Land. Compared to previous art shared at D23, this version shows a tweaked courtyard layout. The coaster show building remains part of the vision, but its placement is deeper into the backlot, creating breathing room between adjacent structures. Though Disney renamed the area Grand Avenue, it remains Muppet Courtyard in the hearts of fans. These changes mark a complete transformation of the area, setting the stage for something new while bringing to a close a legacy location. Disneyland Concept Art Expands the Story Over at Disneyland Resort, new concept art is adding layers to the park's 70th anniversary narrative. Updates to the entrance plaza include widened paths, revised landscaping, and what appears to be preparation for future infrastructure changes. However, the primary concern remains the Avatar experience. New visuals indicate how it might integrate into Disneyland's footprint, fueling speculation over land use and attraction placement. Additional Park Highlights Back at Magic Kingdom, The Emporium is fully restocked, and VIPassholder character meet and greets are in full swing. The Hall of Presidents has reopened its lobby with updated historical exhibits. Meanwhile, both Tom Sawyer Island and the Liberty Belle Riverboat are set to close in July, giving guests one last chance to experience these peaceful Magic Kingdom staples. At Epcot, Test Track walls are down and testing is underway. The UK pavilion's pianist now performs at the Odyssey, and Annual Passholders are meeting Dopey thanks to new AP-exclusive offerings.

What can I say about Johannes Eckerstrom that hasn't already been said? This guy is always a treat to talk to, from his introspection to his philosophy, to Avatar's incredible, if not sometimes frightful music, he always has something interesting to say. Avatar just put out a new song called "Captain Goat" from an as-of-yet unannounced new album. They have a headline tour coming to the States this fall, then opening dates booked with Iron Maiden and Metallica! The man is still a fan at heart, even though his band now stands with the greats. The new era of Avatar begins now!

This week, a Disneyland icon is retiring after 55 years of service, major changes are coming to the resort, we have the details, more details on the Coco and Avatar experiences coming to DCA, Celebrate Soulfully is back, more 70th decorations have appeared, we talk about our D23 events we experienced, and more!

News: A Disneyland icon is retiring after 55 years with the Walt Disney Company. Kim Irvine will be passing the torch to the next generation of Imagineers to guide Disneyland. Over her time with the company, Kim worked on the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sleeping Beauty Castle, Project Stardust, and more recently, the refurbishment of the Jungle Cruise and the Adventureland Treehouse. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ Last Thursday, Disneyland President Thomas Mazloum gave a State of the Resort presentation and unveiled some major upcoming changes. The first of these was concept art for a new entrance experience for guests on the Harbor side of the resort. This includes a new Transportation Hub, and major esplanade changes. A new guest bridge will take guests from a new parking structure behind the hotels on Harbor Boulevard to the entrance to the parks. There will still be a security checkpoint on Harbor for guests staying at those hotels. The transportation hub will move from between the parks to the new parking area, along with a security checkpoint. Construction on a new 6,000 space parking structure, rideshare and shuttle zones, and everything else is set to begin in fall of 2026. – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/future-expansion-plans-for-disneyland-resort/ Two other projects at Disney California Adventure got some more firm details. The “Avatar Experience” will displace Monsters, Inc. Mike and Sully to the Rescue!, which will close in early 2026. No further details on the experience, construction timeline, or anything else for this area was announced. The “Coco”-themed attraction did get some more details! The attraction will be located near Paradise Gardens Park and Pixar Pier, in a current backstage area. Construction will begin this fall! – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/future-expansion-plans-for-disneyland-resort/ June is Black Music Month, which means the return of an annual celebration. Celebrate Soulfully runs now through the end of June. The event features specialty food, character meet and greets, and performances around the resort. – https://disneyland.disney.go.com/events-tours/celebrate-soulfully/ While we were in the parks, we were able to get a sneak peek over the scrim to see the update on the Tiki Room. It appears that Tangaroa has been installed and other Tiki Gods are also being refreshed. The flowers and tikis that fall from Tangaroa look to be higher up than before, but it was hard to say for certain over the scrim. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ The Walt Disney Archives does some amazing work, which you can see in the parks for the 70th! Inside of Carthay Circle Restaurant, there is a new “Celebrating 70 Years of Disneyland Resort with the Walt Disney Archives” exhibit. It features a ticket book, a Sam the Eagle top hat from America Sings, a Disneyland survey marker, and more. Certainly worth checking out if you are in the parks. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ We had talked previously of some of the missing decorations from the 70th concept art for Sleeping Beauty Castle. Well, they were just a little late for the start of the celebration! The toppers to the banners on the drawbridge have been installed. They feature two horns attached to the 70th medallion, and swirling magic leading up to the light on top. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ Disney giveth and Disney taketh away. The fountains in the moat in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle appear to have been removed. The fountains were installed for the Disney100 celebration and were expected to stay after, but they are now gone. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ The “main” location of Earl of Sandwich has a closing date. July 25th marks the end of Earl in the former La Brea Bakery location, leaving the temporary “pop-up” location by the old ESPN Zone building. The final location for Earl of Sandwich, near the D-Lander shop is still under construction. – https://www.micechat.com/417008-disneyland-news-kim-irvine-exits-coco-avatar-expand-construction-update/ SnackChat: Pride Nite Foodie Guide – https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/disney-eats-foodie-guide-to-pride-nite-at-disneyland-2025/ Discussion Topic: D23 Disney Archives and Studio Tour

Most people relate to the word “avatar” as the name of a 2009 blockbuster movie set in a fictional world called Pandora. People also create “avatars” as representative images in video games, on Facebook, or other online activities. However, unknown to many, the word “avatar” is actually a profound ancient term drawn from Hinduism and enshrined in the heart of New Age Spirituality. Learn the truth.

It's always great to catch up with Johannes from Avatar. I think this is my third or fourth time interviewing him. Full disclosure: I'm an Avatar fan! Their new single “Captain Goat” is a wild ride—both musically and visually. The video dives deep into Greek and Norse mythology, Scandinavian folklore, and includes a very sexy siren (his words). “When a song is really, really good, it gives you these strong visual hallucinations,” he explained. “This was one of those. It’s a spiritual journey through the dark, complete with water, goats, and mythological creatures. Hendrik plays the siren, Jonas is tied to cliffs like Loki, and Tim is a Nixie, this water spirit thing.” Oh, and they filmed underwater in a rehab swimming pool. “Toward the end of the shoot, I couldn’t really open my eyes anymore—but the face paint covers the pain.” “We’re All Gonna Die… Let’s Disco.” When I brought up how Avatar mixes darkness with this weird sense of fun, Johannes nailed it: “We’re a heavy metal band that wants to be a good time. But we also dig deep into the dark rooms of the soul. That duality—that’s where Avatar lives. We’re all gonna die… let’s disco.” About the New Album… Kind Of A new album is coming. Johannes knows the release date, but can’t share it yet. “They won’t let me say the date, but it’s an excellent date,” he teased. “The album’s finished. It sounds amazing. Visually and sonically, we’re almost there.” I pressed him for the album title, but no luck. “It’s a beautiful title that lures you into forbidden places… a meadow between the trees.” Yeah, he’s not giving it up—but it sounds like classic Avatar mind-bending stuff. Metallica, Maiden, and Full Circle Moments In the span of 12 months, Avatar will have opened for both Iron Maiden and Metallica. “Honestly, there wouldn’t be an Avatar without Metallica,” Johannes said. “John broke his leg skiing when he was 12. His mom bought him Metallica CDs. He became obsessed, started drumming, met Jonas—and boom, Avatar.” He’s pumped for the Metallica shows, but also honest about the pressure. “When you’re on that big round Metallica stage, it’s theirs. But for those 45 minutes, I have to own it. I’ve got to walk out there and go, ‘This is mine now.’ It’s a challenge… but a fun one.” Cooking Battles in a Castle They recorded the new album in a castle. Yes, an actual castle. “We had this massive industrial kitchen with a frying pan bigger than your face,” he laughed. “Our chef got sick, so I stepped in and made pasta bolognese. I think I won.” Apparently, cooking has become “a pissing contest between bandmates,” and yes, it’s a very Swedish man thing. Enjoy!

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 746 Are you ready to reconfigure your past and reimagine humanity's future through the power of outrageous love? Visionary Philosopher Marc Gafni joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 746, to guide you from mythic narratives of soul mates to the co-creative vision of whole mates: evolutionary partners in service of the cosmos. Learn how the gift of suffering becomes the pathway to transcendence, why raising children is a spiritual act of embodiment, and how solving humanity's value crisis can spark a galactic awakening. "Soulmate relationships don't work. They're insufficient. If a couple is not looking at a shared horizon and they are only looking deeply in each other's eyes, it will not work. Whole mates are not just looking deeply in each other's eyes. They're first looking at a shared horizon, a shared mission. They're looking at the whole. They're in a relationship to the whole. And then from there, they turn back and look at each other." - Marc Gafni In This Episode, Marc Gafni Uncovers: [01:20] Outrageous Love Marc Gafni Why 'I love you' is our sacred creed. How facing death puts us in our visceral truth. Why we've lost connection to the meaning of 'I love you.' The difference between ordinary love and outrageous love. How love allows us to give our unique gifts. When we're in love, we feel welcome in the cosmos. Why reality is not a fact but an outrageous love story. How reality is generated. [09:50] What Is Evolution? Whole Mate by Marc Gafni The three levels of knowing. How we get lost in the complexity, which blocks us from seeing the depth. Every place we've been, we needed to be. Why every detour is part of the destination. How reality has mathematical, musical, molecular, metabolic, moral, and mystical values. Why reality is movement towards transformation. Evolution is love in action in response to need. How becoming what reality intended us to be, divinity experiences self-recognition through us. If we don't have the experience that we matter, our mind, heart, and body break down. [20:20] The Three Faces of God Why the God we don't believe in doesn't exist. The importance of the word 'God.' Why outrageous love is not a response to another person but the love that moves through us. The three faces of God: first, second, and third person. Neil deGrasse Tyson How religions show the faces of God. [29:50] New World Why we're in a time between worlds. How 40% of AI researchers believe that AI could destroy all humanity. 692 Paul Chek | Spirit Gym: How To Find The Truth of Your Soul + Live Your Dream How we can create a new story of values for the world. [35:45] Divine Loneliness Why God is lonely. How we need separation to create intimacy. What it means to be lonely. How Marc's son made him see the human singularity. The importance of knowing our soul print. How we cover up our emptiness by getting our attention hijacked. Why we need to sit in loneliness in order to fill up with our soul print. The divine is being, spaciousness, and becoming. Why evolution is a love story of the universe. How wholeness comes from brokenness. [47:25] Pseudo-Eros + Shame Why pornography is pseudo-Eros. How pornography is explicit sexuality taken out of the context of a story. Why our relationship to essence is always sensual. How our shame tells a story that we're wrong. Why a great saint makes new mistakes. The meaning of the word 'hallelujah.' [56:10] From Soul Mate to Whole Mate Why soulmate relationships don't work. Evolution of Love from Quarks to Culture by Marc Gafni, Zak Stein + Elena Levin Why reality is evolution, relationships, and the evolution of relationships. How crisis drives evolution, and the movement is an evolution of relationships. The evolution from role mate to soul mate to whole mate. The Boy Crisis by Warren Farrell + John Gray How each one of us has a role within a relationship in order to survive and thrive. Love Story (1970) [01:11:50] How Movies Tell The Story of Reality How the Matrix movie displays a whole mate relationship. The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman Why Mars and Venus Collide by John Gray Getting The Love You Want by Harville Hendrix How love replaced our values. Why sexuality is not personal but universal. The importance of having a shared vision as a couple. Social Physics by Alex Pentland Why most children don't believe in love anymore. Sapiens by Harari Yuval Noah [01:30:35] Raising Children As Whole Mates 744 Debra Silverman | Your Pain Has a Pattern… and Astrology Reveals It All (This Isn't Random) What embodiment feels like. Why raising children is more than a role mate part. How we can serve the larger whole. Phenomenology of Eros by Jonna Bornemark + Marcia Sa Cavalcante Schuback The reason why most relationships don't work. Why monogamy is a practice. Why relationships are the basic structure of reality. How most couples therapists don't address the issue of not having a shared vision. [01:42:15] Our Deepest Desires Our Divine Desires Why God is the intimate infinite. How creating a new intimacy creates a new God. Why spirituality and religion must come together. How our desire to become more intimate comes from God. [01:48:55] The Purpose of Evolution Why the purpose of evolution is the evolution of love. How the evolution of love is the evolution of God. Why whole mates are evolutionary partners. An atom is a new value of intimacy. How we move from matter to life. Why power gives us pleasure and dignity. How we can impact the whole world. Why we're never powerless. Enlightenment means to know the nature of reality. [01:58:55] Reconfigure Your Past What creates a capacity to transform. How we can get beneath time. Why we can undo our mistakes. How transforming our will transforms our deeds. [02:07:10] New Humanity + Existential Risks How we can practice love in the moments of pain. Why the universe feels love. How outrageous lovers commit outrageous acts of love. Why war is not inevitable. We can create a new human and a new humanity. How the cosmos is moving towards more goodness. What existential risks we're facing as humanity. Reimagining Humanity's Identity: Responding to the Second Shock of Existence by Marc Gafni + Zachary Stein Why evolution doesn't stop. [02:17:05] Solving Value How the process of getting deeper is our joy. First Principles and First Values by David J. Temple Why there are different qualities of love. How the new age community doesn't do the deep work. Why we need to solve the value to create a change in the world. [02:25:30] What Is Value? How the source code is corrupted because the story of value has gotten lost. Why we need to go to the source code to clarify our values. What makes us question ourselves. How reality desires to evolve the source code. Why we're on the edge of a galactic moment. Avatar (2009) Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts
