Podcasts about Bluey

An episode that is not about inflexibility—it's about emotional safety, sensory regulation, and being authentically ourselves in a world that often feels chaotic!In Episode 147 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 8 of Autistic Culture: Predictably Comforting, with special guest Daria Brown, author of We Chose Play: Raising an Autistic Child to Thrive and Feel Understood.Daria Brown has a Master's degree in Personality and Social Psychology. She has worked in the field of research, evaluation, and education for over 30 years at universities, not-for-profits, and government.Together, they discuss why predictability, routine, and familiarity are not only comforting but essential in autistic lives.This episode is especially meaningful for autistic listeners, families, and advocates who want to gain a deeper understanding of why consistency matters so deeply in autistic culture. Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic Brains Crave PredictabilityOur nervous systems seek regulation over novelty. Familiar patterns reduce overwhelm and foster inner peace.* Routine as Emotional SafetyAutistic routines—like watching the same show, eating familiar foods, or repeating daily rituals—aren't rigid. They're tools for stability, helping manage emotional and sensory overload.* Cultural Examples of Comforting Predictability* Thomas the Tank Engine's structured stories* Dino Nuggets' consistent texture and taste* Andy Warhol's daily green underwear and soup-can art* Repetition as a Strength, Not a SymptomFrom stimming to re-watching favorite shows, repetition brings grounding comfort. It supports emotional regulation and fosters creativity.

My ring finger remains empty. But that is something that might happen (0:03:08) Codey: this year. But we’re not like we’re just gonna go do it. Like, so it’s not. Yeah, well, yeah. (0:03:15) Kev: Ah, shotgun wedding? (0:03:19) Codey: So it’s, I don’t know, it’s one of those like, we feel like it, but we just haven’t done (0:03:27) Codey: the place yet. And I don’t know if he’s I think he might be waiting to like, do a special proposal (0:03:28) Kev: Yeah, there you go. (0:03:32) Codey: or whatever, which is a little silly, because we kind of already know it’s gonna happen. But at the (0:03:37) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:03:38) Codey: same time, like, I’m not gonna say no to being hampered for a moment or something. So, but no, (0:03:45) Codey: so not getting hitched, not getting engaged, none of that I have just been dissertationing and (0:03:50) Codey: dog sitting. So and chickens, chickens are the dog sitting. Yeah. (0:03:52) Kev: And chickens, apparently, you use these. (0:03:57) Codey: So dissertation, I am trying to defend this upcoming fall. So within the next like, (0:04:06) Codey: within the next six months, it’s horrifying. And so I have a lot to get done. And I finally (0:04:13) Codey: got money to hire people. So I have people that are helping me now. And so they I’m like, in the (0:04:22) Codey: lab a lot because I’m getting them to help me. I have people only through (0:04:27) Codey: July so with the in August I’m back to being by myself so these next few (0:04:30) Kev: Oh, oh you gotta squeeze out what you can. Yeah, oh you gotta move on. (0:04:33) Codey: months yeah these next few months are like as much as possible um so I (0:04:40) Codey: haven’t been dog sitting actually that much because I’ve been kind of switching (0:04:43) Codey: into like being on campus but I am dog sitting at this present moment my (0:04:47) Codey: advisor goes on a couple different summer vacations and I always like watch (0:04:53) Codey: his dogs and stay at his house and he also has chickens. (0:04:54) Kev: Mm-hmm. (0:04:57) Codey: the chickens come in he has I think four hens and then he bought seven baby chicks (0:05:06) Kev: okay (0:05:08) Codey: like right before he left one of them did not make it so far but I mean that’s they kind of just do (0:05:09) Kev: Yeah (0:05:12) Kev: No (0:05:15) Codey: that it’s not uncommon for that to happen so about all the other ones are doing great so I had to (0:05:16) Kev: Yeah (0:05:19) Kev: Yeah (0:05:23) Codey: Just kind of check on them and refill their water. (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

What's the most-watched show in America right now—and why are grown adults turning on Bluey for their dogs?In this wildly entertaining episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina “Little Baby Cornbread” Ray dive headfirst into the latest TV ratings for the 2024–2025 season.

Sebastian Barrios was the longtime head of product and engineering at Mercado Libre, the largest company in Latin America—valued at over $100 billion and home to more than 100,000 employees. There, he led a team of more than 18,000 engineers across 18 countries and oversaw an astonishing 30,000 code deployments a day. Before Mercado Libre, he founded multiple startups, including a ridesharing company that competed directly with Uber in Latin America. And at just 17, he got a personal phone call from Steve Jobs asking him to take his app off the App Store.

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth enter the third hour learning why dogs enjoy Bluey before they reset the discussion of expectations for the Broncos in Bo’s sophomore year. Stink hops on to give his take on the closing gap between the Broncos and the Chiefs before Stink is introduced to the Daily Top 5: Best CB’s in Broncos History. They discuss the paradoxical position the Rockies find themselves in where they become more irrelevant the more they win. Mike and Stoke finish the third hour browbeating Stink into moving his #5 Broncos CB up his list.

I had a real mum on the podcast… and spent most of it comparing her kids to my cat. Comedian, writer, star of The Roast, Thank God You're Here and SBS The Feed Alex Lee joins me to talk about how parenting changes your algorithm, the great sleepover debate, and why Bluey might be more for adults than kids. We also unpack fear-based parenting trends, controversial opinions, and yes—I try to convince her that having a dog is the same as having a child. (It goes about as well as you'd expect.)Check out Alex's new podcast Baby ShoesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A major new report from the OECD has revealed shocking insights into how screen use is shaping children's lives—and not for the better. In this episode, Justin and Kylie Coulson unpack the disturbing statistics, explain the real-world impact of screens on kids’ mental health, relationships, and development, and offer practical, age-specific strategies to help parents take back control. From toddlers to teens, this is the digital wake-up call every parent needs. KEY POINTS Startling Stats: Aussie teens average 7 hours of screen time per day. 12% use screens more than 80 hours per week. 70% of 10-year-olds “own” smartphones. 60% of Australian girls report severe distress from cyberbullying. 4 Uncomfortable Truths for Parents: Real-world problems predict digital problems. Kids in distress offline turn to screens for escape. Most parents are fighting the wrong war. The issue is less about screen time and more about content and connection. It’s a bi-directional trap. Poor mental health drives screen addiction, and screen use worsens mental health. Parental hypocrisy matters. Kids don’t listen if we model the very behaviour we criticise. The Hidden Costs of Screen Use: Depression, anxiety, loneliness, academic decline, sleep issues, and family conflict all rise with excessive and unsupervised screen use. The Real Solution: Strong offline relationships, autonomy-supportive parenting, and a focus on values, not just rules or limits. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “You can’t lift someone up if you’re underneath them. You’ve got to stand on high ground.” — Justin Coulson RESOURCES MENTIONED OECD Report: How’s Life for Children in the Digital Age? The Parenting Revolution by Justin Coulson Happy Families Webinars and Courses Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg Past episodes on sextortion and gaming ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS For Kids Aged 0–7: Be present during screen time or avoid it altogether. Keep devices out of bedrooms—model this yourself. Avoid gamified apps and addictive content. Prioritise simple, slow-paced shows (e.g., Bluey). For Kids Aged 8–12: Create a co-designed family media plan. Prioritise what they’re consuming, not just how much. Invest in offline activities and friendships—nature, play, and sport are protective. For Teens: Shift from control to collaboration. Support autonomy and solve problems with them. Address root issues—mental health, loneliness, stress—before tackling screen habits. Model healthy screen use. Walk your talk, or your words will fall flat. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Netflix just picked up Sesame Street, but this isn't just about Elmo. It's a calculated move in the high-stakes fight for kids' attention — and future subscribers. Elaine Low, Natalie Jarvey and Sean McNulty dig into why streamers like Netflix and Disney+ are doubling down on branded kids content while others quietly exit, and why Paramount+ has untapped potential.

Also: final thoughts on Final Destination, and a few bold and likely-to-be-regretted weekend movie plans, including Lilo and Stitch side-eye. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bluey watches a game with her neighbor and helps him decide which team to cheer for.

Behind every “yes” in the toy industry, there's a mountain of “no's,” countless hours of hustle, and more trial and error than most people expect. At one point, he came close to walking away from it all—until a single line from an episode of Bluey reminded him that making games was exactly what he was meant to do.In this episode Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm joined by the incredibly talented Jeremy Posner, owner of Shenanigans Toys and Games, the inventor behind hit games like Beagle or Bagel, Bears in Barrels, and Piggy Piggy. He's been named to the Mojo Nation 100 SIX times, won Game Innovator of the Year at the TAGIEs, and has worked with some of the biggest names in the toy industry like Hasbro, Mattel, and Spin Master. But here's the plot twist: it took Jeremy EIGHT years to meet his royalty goals. And that's after winning major awards and getting meetings with big companies right out the gate.You're gonna hear why just licensing a game doesn't mean you've made it, what really makes a game “sellable” to toy companies, and why most ideas just don't cut it. Jeremy also explained the real deal with royalties or advances, and how long it actually takes to see a check.  He even shared how he trained his brain to be more creative (yes, that's a thing!).Dreaming of creating the next game night hit or just curious what it really takes to make it in toys and games?Hit play and steal a few smart moves for your next big creative leap.Listen for these Important Moments! [00:03:07] - Despite early wins, including a TAGIE award and a background at Big Monster Toys, Jeremy didn't hit his financial goals from game licensing until eight years in. [00:11:17] - After Toy Fair, Jeremy reflects on the silence that often follows a pitch. He explains how learning why you're hearing “no” (and from whom) is key to improving your ideas and not losing steam.[00:23:00] - Around year four, Jeremy stopped “just creating” and started strategically designing evergreens. He audited his creative process, studied the brain, and trained himself to boost creative output daily.[00:33:04] - Jeremy tests tons of game ideas fast by building quick, minimum viable prototypes. He runs super short playtests to see what's worth developing and keep his creativity flowing.[00:40:35] - Near the end of the episode, Jeremy shares his dream of designing fan experiences for sports teams and creating original game shows, proving he's still dreaming big, even after major success in toys and games.Send The Toy Coach Fan Mail!

In this episode of the Helping Families Be Happy podcast, host Adina Oberman interviews musician Tyler Hilton, discussing the intricacies of blending fatherhood with his musical career. Hilton reflects on his time as both a touring musician and an active dad, with a special focus on how the pandemic afforded him a unique bonding opportunity with his young children. The conversation delves into the inspiration and creative process behind his new children's book, "Daddy Live in Concert," emphasizing the special bond between parents and their children and the power of music in fostering this connection. Episode Highlights 00:00:09: Host Adina Oberman introduces the Helping Families Be Happy podcast and presents Tyler Hilton as a guest. 00:01:19: Oberman elaborates on Hilton's background in music and acting, mentioning his roles and collaborations. 00:02:02: Hilton updates his bio to include the recent addition of his eight-month-old son, expressing the chaos and joy of early parenthood. 00:02:29: Discussion begins regarding Hilton's new book "Daddy Live in Concert" and its inception following the birth of his daughter Winnie. 00:03:34: Hilton shares the evolution of playing music for his children and the broader idea for connecting parents and kids through music. 00:04:28: The process of turning home concerts into live-streamed events during the pandemic is described. 00:05:39: Hilton candidly talks about his daughter's changing reaction to his singing, highlighting phases of children's growth. 00:06:20: Music's impact on young minds is discussed, and Hilton mentions his son's current enjoyment of his music. 00:07:01: Hilton explores similarities between playing music for different audiences — from hospital patients to children. 00:07:50: Oberman refers to another popular parenting tool, the show Bluey, for its lessons on imaginative play. 00:09:36: Hilton explains the book's perspective from a child and the magical view children have of their parents' abilities. 00:12:39: The conversation on how parents should embrace imaginative play ensues. 00:13:16: Hilton shares his strategy for creating a song list tailored to his children's tastes for ease and engagement. 00:16:34: Oberman asks about Hilton's upcoming children's album and his current tour details. 00:17:22: Hilton talks about his worldwide tour and its focus on One Tree Hill music, along with hints at future kid's album plans. 00:18:05: Discussion on the differences between performing for children and for other audiences. 00:18:25: Information is provided on how to follow Tyler Hilton and access his music and tour dates. 00:18:51: The episode concludes with gratitude towards Tyler Hilton and the hope for future collaborations.

Music can bridge the gap in communication with young children, tapping into their emotional understanding. The perspective taken in "Daddy Live in Concert" highlights a child's view of their parents as heroes.

We begin this week's episode with a little Built Puff bar drama. Kelly is obsessed and now Lizz is jumping on the bandwagon and taking one too many bars from the Stumpe stash. Could this cause a major riff between the sisters?  Kelly spent some time this week doing a little Facebook snooping and realizing that parenting is the great equalizer. The cool kids in high school are also changing diapers and going to Disney on Ice and it feels so satisfying to see. Meanwhile, Lizz is getting ready to finally feel settled by the end of 2025. But first there is a whole host of home projects that need to be done that will require them to move out for a little while. In the end, Lizz says it will be all worth it.    It's time to check in with Last Three Transactions. Lizz is all about buying stuff to make her life easier this week, like a belt hole puncher and glue traps for the bugs that get in her house. Plus, popsicle molds to made some easy sweet treats this summer. Kelly is on a health journey and bought some weights for her garage workouts.
