Read transcriptIf you've ever dreamed of piloting a transforming jet while sorting through a love triangle and dodging alien laser fire, then without knowing it you've been living in the Robotech: The Macross Saga timeline. Chris dusts off his Game Boy Advance for this one, only to find that the same intergalactic mess has crash-landed again, this time in crisp Switch resolution. Because nothing says “future of gaming” like revisiting a handheld title from an era when batteries were a personality trait. Helping navigate this space-time crossover is DC Dave from The Monitor Tapes, swooping in with the kind of insight only a seasoned comic podcaster can offer. Together, they dissect what happens when '80s anime melodrama meets early 2000s portable gaming. And spoiler alert: there are missiles, misunderstood heroes, and at least one existential crisis per level. And yes, they both have Opinions™ about which version of Rick Hunter handles better. So grab your nearest mecha (or whatever piece of furniture doubles as one), set your thrusters to “nostalgia,” and dive into a world where pixelated warfare meets the stirring strains of synth-pop destiny. Whether you're a die-hard Robotech purist, a Switch newcomer, or just here for DC Dave's hot takes, this episode's got something for every flavor of space soap enthusiast. Learn such things as: What does it takes to make a side-scrolling shooter feel like an interstellar soap opera? How did licensing rights in the '80s created a cosmic headache that still echoes today? When you have giant fighting robots, do you really need to add all of the war allegory? And so much more! You can find DC Dave on BlueSky @dcdavepodcast, and of course under his podcast The Monitor Tapes on BlueSky @themonitortapes.

No episódio, Ana Frazão entrevista Oscar Arruda d'Alva, Sociólogo, Doutor em Sociologia (UFC) e Servidor do IBGE, Autor da tese “Estatísticas oficiais e capitalismo de plataforma: a transição para um regime de dataficação no Brasil”, que foi premiada como melhor tese do ano em português no campo de estudos da internet da Association of Internet Researchers (AoIR 2025), foi vencedora do Prêmio da Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Ciências Sociais (ANPOCS 2025) e recebeu menção honrosa no Prêmio CAPES de teses de 2025. Na conversa, Oscar Arruda d'Alva explica a importância da estatística oficial e dos dados para o mercado e para os governos, as repercussões da multiplicação de agentes quantificadores fora do âmbito estatal, a crescente importância das big techs na produção de dados. O eixo da discussão é o fato de que a introdução de fontes e métodos estatísticos baseados em critérios mercadológicos está mudando o campo da estatística, com riscos de se criar uma governamentalidade algorítmica paralela e análoga aos Estados Nacionais, ameaçando a hegemonia informacional estatal e a própria soberania. Dentre os pontos importantes da conversa, estão o contraste entre o papel dos dados para o setor público e para as big techs, as limitações dos dados das big techs , a colidência de propósitos, métodos e incentivos entre os dados oficiais e os dados de mercado, bem como a posição do IBGE e da ONU na discussão.

After seven years and 299 episodes, it was only fitting we'd tackle the film that's been a lightning rod with fans—and the hosts of this podcast—since its release in March 2016. Love it or hate it, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice remains in the comic book cultural zeitgeist; and it was the first in a chain of events that led to the eventual downfall of the previous iteration of the DCU. Now, sit back, knuckle up with a Buffalo Nickel from Wren House Brewing, and smuggle all the sweet goods from the White Portuguese! The Thunderous Wizard, Chumpzilla, and Bling Blake are hopping over to Metropolis to drink Lex Luthor dry. This Week's Segments: Introduction/Plot Breakdown – Son of Krypton versus Bat of Gotham! Lingering Questions – Were we able to break Chumpzilla's spirit? (54:47) The "Manors on the Wayne" Trivia Challenge – The Thunderous Wizard challenges the field to trivia about the movie. (1:38:09) Recommendations – We offer our picks for the week and next up: We will see you in the new year for the kickoff of season 8! (1:55:43) And, as always, hit us up on Threads, X, Facebook, Bluesky, or Instagram to check out all the interesting factoids from this week's episode!

We reflect on the first season of a new TV series that explores Stephen King's clown-centric horror universe, check out a decorative piece of technology for Christmas that will invoke some arcade memories, and play the early preview of a Zen-like game where the goal is to restore vintage electronics.
