It's a way to help you cope and manage better.”   “Spirituality is really your relationship with yourself and your higher self, whether you call that source, Spirit, God, whatever, that there's something greater than you.” BIO: Allison Jackson is the founder of Allison Jackson Fitness, where she helps high-performing professionals prioritize their health through nutrition, movement and mindfulness.

Strategies for stress management and sleep improvement are discussed, emphasizing the benefits of mindfulness practices and seeking support.

From Flab to Fab: Mental Shifts for Sustainable Weight Loss - Weight Loss For Women Over 40   Welcome to Weight Loss  for Women Over 40, where we are diving into wellness, fitness, and mindset to empower you on your journey to a healthier and freer lifestyle.  I'm your host Nikki T and today, we're tackling a topic that is THE game changer for lasting weight loss! By the end of this episode, you'll have an understanding of how to have your mind work for you instead of against you.  Want to give you a head's up… I am dropping some curse words in this episode so if you have kids around or don't like curse words you may want to yell “BEEP” when they come up in today's episode. My new goal is to show up completely authentic and I  curse…so there you have it.  Before we dive in, I would love for you to check out my brand new website MavenHeart over at MavenHeart.co    We are creating a movement for you ladies over 40 where you can discover who you authentically want to be including living in the body you want. Having been an entrepreneur since 2006, I've had the privilege of working with over 1,000 women on their weight loss journeys. In the early years of my career, I followed the conventional approach to weight loss, teaching the typical dieting techniques advocated by the organizations that taught me how to be a personal trainer, nutrition specialist, and health coach.  And yes, my clients achieved results. However, as time passed, I noticed when I ran into them that many of them regained all the weight they had lost and gained even more! Growing up in the ballet world and knowing my own weight and body image issues, I realized that I didn't want to perpetuate the cycle of restrictive diets and grueling workouts—the "dieter's mentality" approach that often leads to short-term success but long-term frustration.  Instead, I began diving into personal development, exploring the psychology and mindset shifts necessary for sustainable change. What I discovered was revolutionary.  By incorporating mindset work into my own life, I experienced profound transformations.  And when I introduced these principles to my clients, they too saw remarkable progress. It became evident that addressing mindset was the secret sauce to getting lasting change. If you feel the urge to get off the diet wagon then I want to invite you to join my Group Challenge starting May 6th! This program is going to be unlike anything I have done before AND this is the ONLY time I will be running this program.

Al and Bev talk about Aka Timings 00:00:00: Theme Tune 00:00:30: Intro 00:06:11: What Have We Been Up To 00:12:55: News 00:48:30: Aka 01:13:37: Outro Links Distant Bloom Release Date Palia Steam Release Research Story “Anniversary” Update Disney Dreamlight Valley “The Laugh Floor” Update Len’s Island Upcoming Updates Sneak Peek Spells and Secrets Financial Kickstarter Update Galactic Getaway on Kickstarter Galactic Getaway on Steam Plantabi on Steam Contact Al on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheScotBot Al on Mastodon: https://mastodon.scot/@TheScotBot Email Us: https://harvestseason.club/contact/ Transcript (0:00:30) Al: Hello farmers and welcome to another episode of The Harvest Season. My name is Al and we’re here today to talk about Cottagecore Games. Welcome back Bev. It’s been a while I think since we’ve been on an episode together. (0:00:36) Bev: And my name is Bev. (0:00:42) Bev: Woo! (0:00:48) Bev: It has. It has. (0:00:50) Bev: And I have a lot of regrets about missing the last one we were supposed to be on together because I want to hold a mutiny and re-change the results of the year of… (0:01:02) Bev: game, you’re in gaming? What? Oh goodness. (0:01:06) Al: year in farming games. Game of the farming year. Game of the year. Whatever. Yeah. You abandoned me to the haters. (0:01:06) Bev: There we go. Those are the words. I know. (0:01:18) Al: There was nothing I could do. (0:01:19) Bev: No, no. I fully want to vote in a new system where we vote. So this can’t have (0:01:26) Al: Well, so I mean, so here’s an interesting thing, right? (0:01:33) Al: We could do something where we allow all people who have been on an episode in that year to put in their options, and if there’s a clear winner, then that one wins. (0:01:40) Bev: Mm-hmm. (0:01:42) Bev: Mm-hmm. (0:01:46) Al: I don’t think Coral Island still would have won because, like, I don’t think Johnny was into it by then. (0:01:52) Bev: I don’t know well I think so cuz I recall it when I came on and was complaining about the results I think both Cody and Johnny were like yeah this is game of the year oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Mm-hmm (0:01:56) Al: Well, how do you already played it by then? (0:02:08) Al: OK, so that probably three votes would have probably been anything else realistically, (0:02:14) Al: because there are there are more than six of us who have been on episodes last year, but (0:02:20) Al: would there have been three to vote for anything else? I don’t know. We’ll have a think about it. (0:02:23) Bev: I don’t know. (0:02:28) Bev: We got plenty of time. (0:02:29) Al: We’ve got nine months to think about this, right? So I think we can think up something to stop. (0:02:35) Bev: Yes, for sure. (0:02:35) Al: Stop Cara Island losing again. (0:02:38) Al: Uh, they just need, they just need to do an update, a massive update, right? (0:02:38) Bev: We’ll find a way somehow to get it back into the rankings. (0:02:43) Bev: Into the eligibility criteria. (0:02:45) Bev: I don’t know how, but I’m sure we’ll figure it out. (0:02:48) Bev: We have nine months. (0:02:50) Bev: Yes. (0:02:52) Bev: Yes, they do, which, considering how Stardew is operating, it’s very possible that they might have huge updates moving forward. (0:03:02) Al: I suspect it’s more likely to do DLC than a free update. The free updates that Stardew are doing, (0:03:09) Al: I think, are pretty rare. (0:03:12) Bev: Well, thus far they’ve only done DLCs for charity, as far as I can recall. (0:03:17) Al: Yeah. But the 1.0 only came out in November, so you know, it’s not… (0:03:23) Bev: I don’t know I would still count it, but it still counts even if if you have to pay I will pay it. (0:03:29) Al: Yeah, my point is just that we just we haven’t had any information about upcoming updates for Carl Eylon, so we don’t know. In fact, I’ve not looked. (0:03:44) Bev: Ooo. (0:03:46) Bev: ‘Cause it’s been a few months since they’ve come out. (0:03:46) Al: Oh yeah, it’s basically just the merefolk stuff that they haven’t done, and multiplayer. (0:03:50) Bev: Okay. (0:03:52) Bev: Okay. (0:03:56) Bev: I feel like we could probably have a whole episode like speculating, like what could we add to make this better? (0:04:02) Al: Ooh, good plan. (0:04:02) Bev: Uh-huh. Uh-huh. (0:04:02) Al: Let’s add that to the list before I forget. (0:04:05) Bev: And then that will therefore make it eligible, right? (0:04:09) Bev: ‘Cause we have an episode about it. (0:04:12) Al: I changed that a long time ago because like when we started doing, I mean the only game that’s I think one out of its release year is Spiritfarer and that did come out in November I think of the previous year. So I think that was a fair, like if it comes out in November or December then I think it’s fair to count it for the next year. But yeah I did in the first year we did include games that we had just covered, but that was the first year. (0:04:12) Bev: Oh You (0:04:22) Bev: - Yeah. (0:04:42) Al: And also there were like four games that came out that year. (0:04:46) Al: So very different, I feel. (0:04:46) Bev: Okay, so November-December is what she said. We have a recording. (0:04:52) Bev: 1.0 came out November 14th, so, therefore, there you go. (0:04:59) Bev: I don’t need nine months. I already have a reason to include it for next year, or this year. (0:05:06) Al: Anyway. (0:05:07) Bev: Did I tell you I applied for a law school? (0:05:09) Al: » [LAUGH] (0:05:11) Bev: I’m already putting those skills to practice. (0:05:12) Al: No, you didn’t, you didn’t actually, but yeah, fair enough putting, yeah, getting in some, (0:05:16) Al: getting in some practice there, uh, transcripts are available for the podcast and the show notes and on the website. Uh, I don’t know why I say that because if you’re listening, (0:05:27) Al: you’re listening, right? Like, I don’t know, whatever. Um, we’re going to talk today about Acre. This episode was originally meant to be January of- (0:05:40) Bev: January of 2020. And then we were like, “Oh no, can’t do that one.” And then… It’ll mean a year. (0:05:42) Al: 2023. Uh, we actually had it scheduled in as well. We had it scheduled in as an episode and then we were like, Oh no, can’t do that one. And then that, yeah, it has been a year. (0:05:57) Bev: And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” (0:05:57) Al: So we’re going to talk about Acre. It has been out now for over a year. I think it was December 22 that it came out. Um, so we’re finally getting to it. We’re going to talk about that. Before that, we obviously have some news. (0:06:01) Bev: And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” (0:06:03) Bev: And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” (0:06:07) Bev: And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” And then we were like, “Oh no, I can’t do that one.” (0:06:10) Bev: I have mostly been playing Twisted Wonderland, which I think I might have mentioned it with Johnny when I was on last time, but it’s a mobile gacha game. (0:06:12) Al: Uh, first of all though, Bev, what have you been up to? (0:06:26) Bev: But it’s out of Disney Japan, and it is licensed by Disney, so it is an official Disney product. (0:06:32) Bev: But it’s very similar, I think, to Pokemon Masters in that you have the whole character system, and they have different variations of the characters. (0:06:40) Bev: And there’s storylines, it’s a little bit more lore-centric than Pokemon Masters, because I feel like the dialogue doesn’t really matter in Pokemon Masters, unless I don’t read it. (0:06:52) Al: I think it depends who you are whether you (0:06:52) Bev: There’s too much of it. But yeah, at some point I would like to think that I would go back to read some of it, because some of it was entertaining. (0:07:04) Bev: I think more so the character specific one is not the actual like main (0:07:10) Bev: Story challenge (0:07:12) Bev: But yeah Twisted Wonderland is just a bunch of beautiful (0:07:18) Bev: Anime boys going to school and they’re based off of the Disney villains. So there’s a different house for each (0:07:26) Bev: Seven different Disney villains specifically (0:07:28) Bev: Now I don’t want to list them all just google it. It’s fun. It’s cute. I’m really into it I went to katsukan over the weekend and bought a whole bunch of birch (0:07:40) Bev: to this I (0:07:42) Bev: Was playing core island prior I think to my weekend of Twisted Wonderland and the anime convention of the weekend (0:07:49) Bev: But that has since fallen off (0:07:52) Bev: since coming back (0:07:56) Bev: But yeah (0:07:57) Al: This is very weird. This feels like fanfiction. (0:07:59) Bev: Is it it yeah, yeah, maybe that’s why I like it (0:08:07) Bev: It very much feels… (0:08:10) Bev: …not like that. Because they’re original characters and they’re not the actual Disney villain. They just reference them and clearly some of them are based off of the Disney villain itself. (0:08:18) Bev: But yeah, I’ve since started reading the animation about the Disneyland so… It’s on par. (0:08:28) Al: It’s really weird, but I’m not here to judge each to their own. (0:08:34) Bev: No. Don’t knock it till you try it. Don’t download it. Johnny was very interested at some point. (0:08:39) Al: I will not play. (0:08:40) Bev: It is a gacha game, so it’s… yeah. (0:08:43) Al: I will not play. (0:08:45) Al: I’m going to be honest with you, I’m not going to do it, but (0:08:49) Al: I certainly, yeah, I certainly won’t be judging. (0:08:55) Al: I feel like it says a lot that on the (0:08:58) Al: wiki for it like they all have their their star sign listed it’s like I feel like that says a lot about the game oh one of them has the same birthday as me Riddle Rose Heart (0:09:00) Bev: oh interesting interesting okay which is oh yeah I don’t know I like it I think the arts very pretty I got into cosplay over the weekend because of the anime convention so I want to cause (0:09:30) Bev: some of these characters and I’ve started trying a dabbling at digital art to see if I can make art about these characters and other fandoms now that I’m dabbling into it but yeah I’ve been enjoying it a lot. So what have you been (0:09:46) Al: Fair enough. (0:09:53) Al: Not a huge amount. (0:09:54) Al: So I was in L.A. last weekend for Sinotour, so I didn’t. (0:09:59) Bev: All right, how was that? (0:10:01) Al: It was really good. (0:10:03) Al: It has reminded me that I do not like being in cars. (0:10:09) Al: And there’s a lot of cars there. (0:10:10) Bev: especially in L.A. (0:10:14) Al: Yeah, we were driving to Disney. (0:10:16) Al: Disney downtown and it was meant to take an hour and I ended up taking two and a half hours (0:10:23) Al: Two and a half hours (0:10:25) Bev: That sounds about right. I’ve only been there once. I know, but that does sound accurate, I think, for L.A. (0:10:32) Al: And my boss from the airport into Union Station was meant to take like half an hour and ended up taking like an hour and 15, it’s just like oh my word, everything dreadful. (0:10:42) Bev: Oh (0:10:45) Al: But I had fun, yeah it was good. (0:10:50) Al: It’s the sort of thing I could see myself doing again, maybe not L.A., maybe somewhere else. But yeah, I could absolutely see myself doing something like that again. (0:10:54) Bev: Mm-hmm (0:11:03) Al: It was, it was good fun. (0:11:04) Bev: Okay, so you’ve been playing Pokemon Go in other words [laughter] (0:11:07) Al: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. (0:11:10) Bev: Obviously, I’ve been playing Hakka. (0:11:10) Al: Obviously I’ve been playing Akka, probably not as much as I probably should to cover it, but it’s fine. (0:11:18) Al: I have, I have opinions anyway. (0:11:20) Bev: Mm-hmm. We have enough. (0:11:22) Al: Enough opinions. (0:11:24) Al: And what else? (0:11:32) Bev: added back in later. Make a note to future Al. (0:11:35) Al: Yeah, maybe. Maybe, maybe. Anyway, my brain is dead because I’m still jet lagged. So we’ll continue from there. Yeah, that’s probably about all I’ve been playing. Oh, Pokémon. (0:11:49) Al: It’s Scarlet and Violet. I’ve been doing the outbreaks, the outbreaks. (0:11:52) Bev: Okay, oh the shiny hunting (0:11:56) Bev: Mm-hmm. I probably should pick that up because I want those Pokemon, but (0:12:02) Bev: It feels like work (0:12:02) Al: They’re good shiny rates, good shiny rates. (0:12:04) Al: I got my first one in like 10 minutes, so it feels good. (0:12:07) Bev: Okay (0:12:09) Bev: Remind me which of the three are is it the pokeball ones? (0:12:14) Al: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it’s Voltorb, Pisulian Voltorb, and Fungus. Fungus. Fungus. (0:12:21) Bev: Okay, so it does only have the one involution. (0:12:25) Bev: So that’s doable, unlike flabébé. (0:12:25) Al: Yeah, that’s true. So it’s a total of six if you don’t have any of them. Oh, I know. (0:12:31) Al: Flabé. Getting the 15 Flabé. It was dreadful. I did it. I got them all. But my word, that was a lot of work. I’m so glad those were around for two weeks or whatever it was. (0:12:34) Bev: It was a lot. (0:12:35) Bev: Yep. (0:12:40) Bev: Right, they knew, they had to be more than a weekend ‘cause it would have been impossible. (0:12:41) Al: Mm-hmm. Yeah. (0:12:44) Al: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I didn’t, I had, I was, I wasn’t, I wasn’t doing well. Sorry. I was like, I’m done. I’m done with all these flow, baby. I’m done. (0:12:45) Bev: Same thing with Missouri. (0:12:46) Bev: So. (0:12:51) Bev: » I’m done with. (0:12:53) Bev: » [LAUGH] (0:12:55) Al: Cool. Let’s talk about some news. So first up, we have some release dates. Distantbloom have said that their launch is the 27th of March. That is my wife’s birthday. So yeah, (0:13:12) Al: This one is based on (0:13:14) Al: Alien Planet and I think it’s like a “make the world better” type game. Yeah harness the power of plants to restore the environment and build a flourishing community with your crew mates. (0:13:19) Bev: Ooh, that’s what it looks like. (0:13:26) Al: Yeah so it looks all right. I don’t know if I’ll be playing this one. I need to think about it more. Maybe I will. Maybe I will. (0:13:36) Bev: I don’t know either. It’s very cute. It’s been on my wish list for a while. I do generally like making the world a better place, especially environmentally. (0:13:42) Bev: And I’m not tied into any, I’m like ADHD with my game so I’m just picking them and dropping them immediately. So maybe I will pick this up. We’ll see. (0:13:54) Al: Yeah, we’ll see. Maybe we’ll both be back in a month for that. Well, not a month, because it won’t be out yet, and we need at least a week, I think, to play a game. (0:13:58) Bev: Maybe. (0:14:00) Bev: Maybe. (0:14:06) Bev: » Right, hopefully. (0:14:11) Al: The ADHD fun, of course, is that it’s really hard to get into it in the first place, and then once you’re finally into it, you obsess over it and nothing else exists, and then suddenly one day you decide you’re not playing it, or your brain decides you’re not playing it again. (0:14:16) Bev: Right, right, yep, it, yep, exactly, um, that’s with me, like, with drawing right now, it’s, (0:14:24) Al: And you never, you never touch it again. Am I right? Is that, that about how it goes for you? (0:14:34) Bev: I’m hyper focusing on it for the past week, like, all my free time has been going into it, so it was a struggle to put it down so I could play for the episode, um, so we’ll see. (0:14:44) Al: Yeah. (0:14:46) Bev: It’s, I’m maybe, we’ll see, but it takes work and effort and time and if you’re not enjoying it, then what’s the point? There’s not enough time, so do something that you actually enjoy. (0:14:47) Al: I did four weeks of drawing like three years ago. (0:14:52) Al: That’s not one. That’s not one I think I’ll ever pick up again. (0:14:55) Al: It’s. (0:14:58) Al: I was not good at it. (0:15:02) Al: I know. I know. I know. You get better. (0:15:04) Al: You get better if you actually try blah, blah, blah. But no, I’m not. (0:15:08) Al: It does. (0:15:10) Al: Exactly. (0:15:12) Al: Exactly. (0:15:16) Al: » Speaking of doing something you enjoy. (0:15:20) Al: Palia is coming to Steam on the 25th of March. (0:15:22) Bev: Whoo (0:15:24) Al: So if you’ve been really wanting it on your Steam Deck and you can’t be bothered getting stuff there from other random sites and getting the game that way. (0:15:33) Al: Or if you just for some reason want all your games in Steam, (0:15:36) Al: I guess achievements and stuff like that, that might be why you would want to do it. (0:15:37) Bev: Beautiful. (0:15:40) Al: That is coming out two days before. (0:15:44) Bev: I will probably be downloading it. (0:15:47) Bev: I already have it on my Steam deck, but for other reasons, I’ll probably get it on the Steam. (0:15:53) Bev: And that will probably be where I play it, because it theoretically will be easier to hook up a keyboard if I want it to be social and talk to people, which sometimes I do. (0:16:02) Al: fair. Fair, fair. Is this game, like, because I feel like when they first announced it, (0:16:05) Bev: I don’t. (0:16:14) Al: it was, they’d called it early access, but I’ve never seen them use the term since, and it was obviously not on Steam till now, and now it’s on Switch. Like, do you think they’re just avoiding that term now, or do you think it is officially not early access? (0:16:22) Bev: I feel like it still is because it’s still not 1.0 in terms of like the patch notes and whatnot so they might just be I think you’re right that they’re avoiding it for marketing reasons because it’s on all these platforms and generally (0:16:46) Al: It’s just it’s just a dream like valley. That is the only one [laugh] (0:16:50) Bev: So maybe that’s a new route we’re moving forward with all these games that you’re supposed to play a little bit every day, like Animal Crossing, that you just play a little bit every day and therefore it’s in early access so that you can start fixing these bugs early on. (0:17:09) Bev: I don’t know. (0:17:10) Al: Why should I play this game, Bev? Try and convince me. (0:17:14) Bev: I really enjoy it. (0:17:17) Bev: Can you say? Yes! (0:17:18) Al: Okay, good start. (0:17:20) Bev: I really enjoy it, and this is why you should play, but that’s the only reason. (0:17:24) Bev: I enjoy the art style. I think they’ve done a lot of quality of life improvements in terms of kind of like their chest system, their storage system is all like conclusive. (0:17:42) Bev: You need to buy additional chests to expand it, but you aren’t restricted to only putting items in. (0:17:50) Bev: I’m still a little confused about the MMO part of it. (0:17:51) Al: Yeah, I like that. I heard that on the episode that Johnny and Cody, I think it was, did. (0:17:58) Al: I really like that idea. I think all games should do that now. I think we’re past the days of finite individual storage. It’s all right. I’m sure we’ll have stuff today to talk about that with Akka. (0:18:18) Bev: I kind of want to. (0:18:20) Bev: That’s why I mentioned like hooking up a keyboard so I can try to, you know, chat a little bit more make it play a little bit more friendly, I suppose, and like announcing like here’s the glowing tree over here, like, let’s all meet in 13 minutes or whatever. (0:18:38) Bev: But I do like that there’s no drawback to people playing together in the same space like you just get bonuses or buffs. (0:18:50) Bev: The game itself kind of encourages you to play with people and I do enjoy that they have events but they don’t seem as like intensive as other like mobile or other like free to play games like I’m looking at you, Disney Dreamlight Valley that required me to put in a lot of effort for your last event and I will probably do the same with the next one. (0:19:16) Bev: So I don’t know it I like the work (0:19:20) Bev: I like the the premise behind it I like the like final like the fake like the fantasy component to it so there’s there’s a lot of aspects of it that I do like and the farming is not bad either like the tool system it’s on your your pocket so it’s already better in that sense I don’t love that there’s a specific order you should be planting your crops in because they give benefits or non to like the it’s (0:19:50) Bev: they’re not negative effects but the fact that I have to Google and save an image on my phone to know how to plant things which I rain but I can’t I can’t not if I know mm-hmm I have a spreadsheet (0:19:57) Al: Yeah, yeah, OK. I can see how that’d be a bit frustrating, but… (0:20:01) Al: I mean, if you’re not min-maxing things, then you can probably just ignore it, but… (0:20:07) Al: I mean, yeah, and I’m the person that sits with a spreadsheet for Stardew, so… (0:20:16) Al: I don’t think I know what not min-maxing is. (0:20:20) Bev: I have an app for stardew I have a spreadsheet fruit and blood so mm-hmm I made it myself so [laughs] (0:20:25) Al: Oh, a spreadsheet for Ooblet’s my word! (0:20:27) Al: That’s a level above why, like with Ooblet’s, I didn’t farm an Ooblet’s to min-max anything, (0:20:37) Al: I farmed to get the stuff that I needed rather than anything else, whereas with Stardew, my goal was (0:20:44) Al: become as rich as possible. My goal with Ooblet’s was finish the story. So… (0:20:46) Bev: Oh, so you’re using it for like analyses, like purposes for like, like economics. (0:20:54) Bev: I’m using it for got to collect them all. (0:20:55) Al: Yeah. (0:20:58) Al: No, yeah, yeah, I forgot that you’re on that task of trying to get everything in Stardew. (0:21:00) Bev: Oh. (0:21:02) Bev: Oh. (0:21:06) Al: Yeah, no, I feel like my brain won’t ever let me get to that point with Stardew. (0:21:15) Al: Like there has to be a point where once my brain says, “Okay, you’re done with this. I need to be at like 75%. If I’m lower than 75%, I won’t have the enthusiasm.” (0:21:27) Al: To finish it, if I’m at 75 or over, I’ll be like, “Oh, yeah, well, yeah, that’s just another third of what I’ve done. That’s fine. I can do that.” So, yeah. (0:21:28) Bev: Mmm. (0:21:35) Bev: Uh-huh. (0:21:38) Bev: You know, Pokemon has trained me very well, um, but hasn’t trained me to the point of like completion, actual completion. (0:21:45) Bev: So it fell a little short because everything is just like, I hit 75 and now I’m exhausted. (0:21:52) Bev: I will pick this up two years from now and try again. (0:21:57) Al: Yeah, but the problem then is you start again. (0:22:00) Bev: I’ve been trying to do less of that. (0:22:02) Bev: If I pick up a game that I put down, (0:22:04) Bev: I will make the effort of trying to refamiliarize myself with all the controls so that I don’t keep doing it. (0:22:15) Al: well, we’ll see what happens when the next stardew update comes out and see what you do. (0:22:19) Bev: Super super perfect perfection. Mm-hmm (0:22:22) Al: We haven’t scheduled who’s doing that one yet, have we? (0:22:25) Bev: Well, we don’t have a date for that yet (0:22:27) Al: No, I know. That doesn’t mean we can’t decide who’s doing it. (0:22:31) Al: I mean, realistically, it’s coming out this year. So, you know, it’s gonna happen. (0:22:37) Bev: we’ll see I wouldn’t be surprised 2025 it’s a nice like i’m pretty sure he said well well (0:22:40) Al: I’m pretty sure he said it’s coming out this year. (0:22:46) Al: » Like he said, the words definitely, which is obviously a dangerous thing to say, but he seems pretty confident. I think he said he’s implemented all the features and now he’s on bug-squashing. We’ll see. Maybe it’ll be out in November. Research Story have their one-year anniversary update. You did research- (0:22:50) Bev: okay it is very dangerous okay (0:22:58) Bev: okay then yeah it’s probably coming this year okay - Okay. (0:23:10) Bev: Mm-hmm. Yes. I that was also another game that I had a lot of fun playing and then put it down (0:23:16) Al: Fair enough. Well, you’ll probably end up picking it up when it gets to 1.0, which it’s not at yet. So they had hoped to get 1.0 around now, but I will quote “The scope of the game grew and it will take a bit longer to get ready.” While I work on larger content updates, here’s an anniversary update that has some of the common player requested quality of life features. (0:23:17) Bev: But I would like to get back in (0:23:22) Bev: Yeah (0:23:38) Bev: Oh, yay! (0:23:40) Al: So it has things such as a random name generator for creatures, which is something I very much (0:23:42) Bev: Oh, oh. (0:23:44) Bev: Yes. (0:23:46) Al: enjoy. No game should ever make you name something and not give you a generator. It’s just dreadful. (0:23:46) Bev: No. (0:23:48) Bev: No. (0:23:53) Al: A move button for creature pens, a shoulder bag, which gives you an additional eight slots in the (0:23:54) Bev: Amazing. (0:24:01) Al: inventory, an iron chest, which is larger than a normal chest, item signs, paths, (0:24:11) Al: and other stuff like that. We don’t need to go into all of the really detailed stuff. (0:24:16) Al: The lists, the patch notes, whatever you want to call it, (0:24:21) Al: update notes, and the show notes, if you want to go and read that. Not just now, Bev. (0:24:28) Bev: I’m trying not to I love love all these improvements already so maybe maybe I will pick this up again after I could that would probably be the better yeah okay I’m closing it I’m closing it because I I still haven’t played core islands since the one point I was like I need to actually get into this yeah (0:24:37) Al: Come on, come on. You’ve got to wait. It feels like it’s going to be like another six months. (0:24:42) Al: You can wait six months for 1.0, right? Right? Surely, surely. Close the tab and you’ll forget about it. Oh, you need to. There’s loads of… Because especially as the 1.0, (0:24:58) Bev: Yeah, exactly. (0:24:58) Al: it clears out your save, but it gives you… You get the amount of money that you had. (0:25:04) Al: So the first part of that game. (0:25:07) Al: 1.0 is great because you have like a couple hundred thousand. (0:25:11) Al: Whatever you had at the last one, (0:25:13) Al: you can breeze through the first, the starting of that game. (0:25:15) Al: It’s great fun. (0:25:18) Bev: I don’t know what my money transferred over. (0:25:22) Al: Oh, no. (0:25:24) Al: Have you created a new save? (0:25:24) Bev: I’m gonna have to look at it again. (0:25:28) Bev: It’s fine, whatever. (0:25:29) Bev: Maybe, I might have, I don’t know. (0:25:29) Al: Have you done the thing where you created it on a different computer or something? (0:25:34) Bev: I don’t know, ‘cause it’s, we’ll see, we’ll see. (0:25:34) Al: Oh, babe. (0:25:37) Al: Oh, no. (0:25:38) Bev: If not, it’s fine, it’s fine. (0:25:40) Bev: Everything’s fine, I enjoy it. (0:25:42) Bev: I will make up my monies again, it won’t be hard. (0:25:46) Al: Disney Dreamlight Valley have a new update coming. (0:25:49) Al: This is the one that includes the name change update. (0:25:53) Al: So if you’re like me and you don’t have a name in the game, (0:25:57) Al: you better get it on the 28th of February. So that is the day this episode comes out. (0:26:05) Bev: Beautiful. (0:26:06) Al: This also is called the laugh floor update. So I bet you can you can guess what it’s about. Yes, that’s right. It’s monstrous. (0:26:11) Bev: Mm hmm. (0:26:13) Bev: Guess. (0:26:16) Al: I think. (0:26:24) Bev: What? (0:26:25) Bev: That you can wear? (0:26:30) Bev: I would, I can’t tell if I am excited or not cuz it’s like it’s gonna be clunky, but also it’s fun. (0:26:37) Al: Yeah, it makes the armour noise as you walk, like it’s all in there. (0:26:44) Bev: Oh no, okay, no, I’m not excited for that. (0:26:50) Al: Lens Island have two updates upcoming. (0:26:55) Al: The community update is coming out next month in March. (0:26:59) Al: That combines the most requested ideas and feedback from the Lens Island community into one game-changing update. (0:27:07) Al: is camera control. Camera control is some more languages, that’s about it. I mean, (0:27:16) Al: they’re good updates, but yeah, it’s not a humongous update. I suspect that, well, OK, (0:27:17) Bev: Oh. (0:27:24) Al: when I say humongous, obviously adding in a moveable camera into your game is a pretty big behind-the-scenes update, but from what people see, it is like a single bullet-pot. (0:27:38) Al: Right, that’s the problem with these. (0:27:38) Bev: There’s this new starter guide that’s maybe a quality of life improvement. (0:27:44) Bev: I forget how hard it was to start the game. (0:27:47) Bev: I feel like I didn’t need it, but maybe it is a little bit. (0:27:51) Al: Yeah, I mean, it’s good giving more people opportunities to understand things better. (0:27:59) Al: But they’ve also got the Arctic update coming in April, and this includes new biomes. (0:28:04) Al: They say the new map expansion doubles the size of the map. (0:28:11) Al: So that’s pretty big. (0:28:14) Bev: This was also another one, unsurprisingly, that I picked up and played forever, and then dropped. (0:28:18) Al: Are there any games you haven’t played, Bev? (0:28:20) Bev: So maybe after April I will pick it up again. (0:28:26) Bev: No? I mean, yes, but… (0:28:32) Bev: Hey, I was trying to do my due diligence when I do the year in gaming to at least have tried most of them, (0:28:38) Al: That’s fair. (0:28:40) Bev: although it’s getting a lot harder to do that now that there’s so many games. (0:28:44) Bev: I love it, I hate it at the same time, but here we are. (0:28:50) Al: here we are. Yep, so there’s some more detailed notes in the show notes, but there’s not full notes yet. We’ll get more as we come. There’s a little video giving some visual information to that as well. The camera control looks pretty nice. It looks pretty smooth and yeah, cool. (0:29:14) Al: Finally, we’ve before, well, not finally, we’ve got two new games that we’ve got to talk about, (0:29:18) Al: but finally of the existing game. (0:29:20) Al: We have a little bit of transparency from Spells and Secrets, which is interesting, (0:29:26) Al: because they’ve said that the game has not been a set financial success. (0:29:30) Bev: Oh. (0:29:31) Al: And I think, obviously, it’s sad that they haven’t made their money on this game, (0:29:36) Bev: Yeah. (0:29:36) Bev: Oh. (0:29:37) Al: but I like how open they’re being about it. (0:29:42) Al: And I think more games should be more open about these things, (0:29:46) Al: Because I think it’s important for people to realize how difficult. (0:29:50) Al: It is to actually make a profitable game and getting information about this more often would probably help with that. (0:29:52) Bev: Right. (0:29:58) Al: And yeah, I think that’s good. (0:30:00) Al: So it’s sad I kick-started it. (0:30:04) Al: So I was not part of the problem. (0:30:04) Bev: okay because I can’t see the post it is for backers only which is an interesting choice but I suppose it would it is more relevant to those who have already financially supportive of it but I could make an argument for why it could also be beneficial for non-financial backers to read about it so that they could start finance support again (0:30:07) Al: Oh, is it locked? (0:30:09) Al: Is it locked down? (0:30:11) Al: Okay. (0:30:13) Al: Okay. (0:30:26) Al: Yeah. Yeah. Well, they have I’ve not signed an NDA or anything. So I’m sharing this information. (0:30:34) Bev: But interesting to like hear about like what specifically I talked about like was it just like the Kickstarter wasn’t because it it met its goal so I’m assuming it met its initial (0:30:48) Al: Yeah, the Kickstarter went pretty well, but yeah, it’s sales since launch that they’ve been disappointed with, and yeah, so a little bit sad, but… (0:30:58) Bev: - Okay. (0:31:04) Bev: So have they like said anything about moving forward or are they saying they– (0:31:08) Al: So they aren’t… (0:31:09) Al: Yeah, okay, that’s a good point, yes. (0:31:11) Al: So the way that I’m describing this could make it sound like they’ve now abandoned in the game. (0:31:18) Al: So let me find the wording. (0:31:20) Al: Okay, right, no, I had misread this before. (0:31:23) Al: No, the game’s done, basically, because of that. (0:31:26) Bev: Oh, okay. (0:31:27) Al: So they’ve said, “As a consequence of the poor sales, the development team have decided to close doors. (0:31:32) Al: The game will still receive some bug fixes, but feature development on the title won’t continue.” (0:31:38) Bev: So, like, I’m assuming they hit their 1.0 and they’ve already launched it and we can purchase it on Steam, uh, or wishlist it. (0:31:47) Al: can purchase it on Steam and Switch, and presumably you still can, but yeah it won’t get any more updates other than possibly some bug fixes but I wouldn’t rely on that. (0:31:50) Bev: Okay, but they just, they just won’t be it. (0:31:55) Bev: Okay. (0:31:59) Bev: Okay, well, I don’t think that’s a terrible thing to announce, like it’s, like, as fantastic as Stardew is with its free updates, (0:32:08) Bev: it’s not necessary for these indie, like, dev, like, game devs to be doing constant free updates because they’re, as you said, there’s a lot that goes into game development and adding additional content and having this expectation that, like, every single game needs to have, like, a certain quota of hours of content. (0:32:28) Al: Yeah, that’s fair. However, I would say, I believe the… I haven’t played the Switch version. I haven’t played either of them, actually. I have both. I have it on Steam and on Switch. I haven’t played either of them yet. But I believe the Switch version is not great. So that’s obviously not fantastic. Like, it’s got performance. (0:32:52) Bev: Well, that might be addressed via the bug fixes, so they might not just be completely advancing it. (0:32:58) Bev: It just sounds like they’re not doing new content. (0:33:00) Al: - Well, okay. (0:33:01) Bev: It’s also on PS5 as well. (0:33:02) Al: Yeah, so they’ve said, (0:33:03) Bev: Oh. (0:33:04) Al: I think they’re basically said they’re abandoning the switch version. (0:33:06) Al: They said, “In our last update, we mentioned we were looking for ways to improve the Nintendo Switch version. (0:33:11) Al: Unfortunately, after the new porting team evaluated the code, it became clear that a complete report would be necessary.” (0:33:16) Bev: Oh no, okay. (0:33:18) Al: They say which Nintendo does not support. (0:33:20) Al: That’s a bit of awkward wording. (0:33:22) Al: That’s not quite true. (0:33:23) Al: What they’re saying is there are certain things that they would be required to do to allow that. (0:33:29) Al: For example, (0:33:30) Al: you’re not allowed to have backwards incompatibility with your save files and they don’t want to have to deal with that, basically. So the work that they would have to put in to make the Switch version good enough is not worth it for them. (0:33:37) Bev: I have. (0:33:51) Bev: Mm-hmm. Okay. I’m wondering if they would be willing to kind of switch the keys then to give you the steam access if that’s kind of (0:33:58) Al: So I believe everybody who backed on Kickstarter got a Steamkey. (0:34:04) Bev: Okay. (0:34:06) Al: Obviously people who just bought it wouldn’t have, but yeah, I don’t know what they’re doing with that because obviously all the comments on Kickstarter are from Kickstarter people so they all have a Steamkey. (0:34:06) Bev: Mm-hmm. (0:34:15) Bev: Mm-hmm (0:34:18) Bev: Okay, well so that I wonder if they’re gonna do something like more publicly then just kickstarter (0:34:25) Bev: But it looks like a really cute game. That’s a shame. I (0:34:29) Bev: Almost want to pick it up now (0:34:33) Bev: Another game to pick up now that I know that they’re struggling but (0:34:36) Al: Yeah, I mean, I don’t, I believe the Steam version is, is good. Like, I don’t, I don’t believe the Steam version is bad. I believe the Switch version is bad. (0:34:40) Bev: Okay (0:34:43) Bev: It’s also a rogue light which is interesting (0:34:48) Al: Maybe we need to play this game and cover it, Bev. (0:34:52) Bev: Okay, now I have a reason to buy another game. Um, that’s that’s fine (0:34:57) Bev: This is how I justify buying new games. Yes, I would love that. Let’s do it (0:35:03) Al: Okay, cool. Well, this is not a promise, listeners. I’m not saying we will definitely cover this game and it will definitely happen soon, but watch this space. So we also have two new games, (0:35:13) Bev: Ooh, indeed. (0:35:17) Al: one of which is a Kickstarter, of course. I am undecided on this one. Let’s talk about it. (0:35:23) Al: It’s called Galactic Getaway. Oh, so much to say. So first of all, they call it a cozy online space (0:35:26) Bev: Mmm (0:35:34) Al: and the subtitle on Kickstarter is “Hang out with friends in space, (0:35:37) Al: collect pets, and play minigames from the creators of Nookazon?” (0:35:43) Al: Nookazon was the… was that the Animal Crossing online marketplace? (0:35:44) Bev: Nookazan. (0:35:47) Bev: Yes, Amazon, but Nook, but for Animal Crossing, yes. (0:35:51) Al: Yeah, weird. It’s weird to go from, like, let’s make a website about Animal Crossing, (0:35:51) Bev: That’s fantastic, okay. (0:35:57) Al: where you can, you know, trade items to making a game. Well, I… (0:36:02) Bev: Well like Maybe they picked up like obviously they had to like pick up some skills if they didn’t already have skills for managing a website (0:36:03) Al: I’ll love it. (0:36:12) Al: Yeah, it’s not the same thing as a web developer. It is not the same thing. I don’t think I could just make a game (0:36:13) Bev: It’s not (0:36:19) Bev: Even an online game (0:36:22) Al: Well, it’s an online game, but it’s like on switch and stuff like that just makes it harder (0:36:24) Bev: It’s an MMO (0:36:28) Bev: Wait, are they are they advertising that’s gonna be on switches at it like a goal? (0:36:31) Al: They are they are coming to PC Mac and (0:36:32) Bev: Oh, okay. Well, there’s nothing stopping them from hiring people who will do the switch component of it. So it might be that I am I am. This is just my line of thinking of like, Oh, I did this. Now let’s do the next hardest thing. (0:36:42) Al: OK, no, I think you’re missing the point. I think you’re missing the point. OK. Yeah, (0:36:53) Al: it’s just an entirely different thing. OK, let’s talk about this game, because I don’t know why this is set in space. Nothing seems to be actually space about it, right? The only thing that seems to be space is that, like, there are more stars in the sky and You just happen to be on not earth, but everything about it screams. (0:37:12) Al: This is just earth, right? (0:37:15) Al: You’ve got, you’ve got farming. (0:37:16) Bev: It does (0:37:17) Al: You’ve got animals that are all just like standard human earth animals. (0:37:20) Bev: There’s a robot that looks like (0:37:24) Al: Oh, there’s a robot. (0:37:25) Al: We must be in space. (0:37:26) Bev: Well, maybe these animal NPCs are aliens from different planets (0:37:32) Bev: and I could see how some of the (0:37:38) Bev: mid like the equipment [laughing] (0:37:40) Al: Okay, there’s a couple of there’s a couple of animals that aren’t aren’t like standard animals there’s like some starfish looking thing and there’s a a cat with multiple tails but like most of them it’s like here’s a raccoon here’s a monkey with a banana on its head oh look it’s a chicken but it has a helmet on right like the animals are probably the most interesting thing about it but everything else is just like it’s just a farming life sim. (0:38:08) Bev: I suspect they’re using the galaxy component to have an in-game description for like world building essentially for how you’re able to island hop and animal crossing essentially. (0:38:24) Al: Oh, right. You’re going to different… you go to each other’s planets. Is that what it is? (0:38:26) Bev: So it’s you’re not island hopping, you’re planet hopping, yeah. (0:38:30) Al: Right, the most exciting thing that I see about this is the tank game. Have you seen (0:38:34) Bev: Ugh. (0:38:39) Bev: » I did, which looks like I’m thinking of like a Mario mini game. (0:38:47) Bev: » Yeah, yeah, that’s exactly what it looks like. (0:38:48) Al: Yeah. Yeah. That’s exactly what it looks like. I mean, this whole thing looks a little bit like a kind of Nintendo minigame, minigame filled game, which is not a bad thing. I’m not saying that. You know, it’s like there’s just one particular point where all the characters are running across a game that just a screen that looks exactly like a Wii Sports type (0:38:49) Bev: » Okay. (0:38:53) Bev: » Nintendo. » Oh, yeah, Nintendo-esque. (0:38:55) Bev: » Mini games, no games. (0:39:13) Bev: Is that why they’re calling it an MMO because of all these mini games that’s really realistically going to be the component other than maybe eight villagers on your island? (0:39:23) Bev: I don’t think they answered how that is going to work. (0:39:28) Bev: Multiplayer is hanging out so I think similar to Animal Crossing, it’s probably capped but I’m not entirely sure. (0:39:36) Bev: Decorating and mini games. (0:39:37) Bev: So you can decorate with people over, that’s different from Animal Crossing. (0:39:40) Al: - Yeah, I feel like maybe they don’t know what MMO means. (0:39:50) Bev: Or like the industry has taken MMO and made it into a different thing because it’s what does it stand for? Multiple (0:39:57) Bev: Multiple (0:40:02) Bev: Massively multiplayer online and yeah, I don’t (0:40:06) Al: There’s nothing massively about this. (0:40:08) Bev: As far as where where I don’t know if there is a cap Like there is an animal crossing that could be the distinction that you could have a thousand people on your planet at one time (0:40:18) Bev: Um, are you all? (0:40:20) Bev: All on the same planet, kind of, like, with polio, but that I don’t understand why it’s in space, um, there’s, we have a lot of questions. (0:40:28) Al: Yeah, I think this is the point, is we have a lot of questions that aren’t answered by the Kickstarter. (0:40:34) Bev: Right. (0:40:36) Al: They haven’t hit their goal yet, but I reckon they’ll hit it. (0:40:40) Al: They are £7,000 away. What is that in dollars? They’re $9,000 away. (0:40:46) Bev: 9,000. 8,500 give or so. (0:40:51) Al: Yeah. (0:40:51) Bev: So, well, they only have five days, so it could be hit or miss. (0:40:57) Al: They only have five days, but you make like half of your money in the first five days, (0:41:03) Al: and the other half in the last five days. You don’t make much in the middle. (0:41:09) Bev: Good point. (0:41:09) Al: Like people wait until the last minute to decide whether they’re doing it or not. (0:41:12) Bev: True, ‘cause like, can I wait until the next month when my new budget starts? (0:41:17) Al: Yeah, so Kick Track says they’re trending towards 98% of their goal. (0:41:24) Bev: Okay that’s terrifying uh huh uh-huh now I’m reminding myself so it does look cute and if it is Animal Crossing ask I will I’m sure enjoy it (0:41:25) Al: So that is uh… (0:41:27) Al: that’s a oh no and like if it gets to that point I’m going to back it just to make it a success right like I can’t see this fail on my watch. (0:41:44) Al: Click the button on Kickstarter because it has the little button that will warn you when there’s two days to go and then it’ll warn you when there’s eight hours to go. They’re very good at making sure it’s perfect for it must there must be an ADHD person on the team right because (0:41:48) Bev: yep yep (0:41:57) Al: perfect for like oh by the way remember about this game and then the next day hey this game it is like this is your literal last chance click the button (0:42:07) Bev: Yep, and indeed, cuz they spend several times sort of like, I’m gonna pack it. (0:42:11) Bev: And then I forget, so yeah, for sure. (0:42:16) Al: so I guess we’ll see yeah I just it feels like it’s just it’s in space because they wanted to be in space and not because they’ve actually got some interesting ideas as to what being in space (0:42:27) Al: but (0:42:29) Bev: I mean, I look at dayland and that was technically in space and like there is some travel. (0:42:34) Al: what no no no no no no no no no no because right dalind worked like I don’t think it could have not been in space because the whole point was you were on your entire you were it was a really small planet exactly so it couldn’t be earth we know it couldn’t be earth so it had to be some random other planet. Like, it didn’t make any sense. (0:42:46) Bev: It’s a really small planet. (0:42:54) Bev: But like, it could just be a really small Earth. (0:42:57) Bev: Like, what is the point of it being in space if you can’t do a star field level exploration? (0:43:00) Al: Well, to be– Well, everything’s in space. (0:43:07) Bev: Like, what is the point of spacey games? (0:43:09) Bev: Like, is it to travel to other places? (0:43:12) Bev: ‘Cause if that’s the point of it, (0:43:16) Bev: they will probably hit it with traveling to other quote-unquote islands. (0:43:20) Bev: If it’s to do space exploration, then no, probably not. (0:43:25) Al: I guess my point is, right, like, Dehland was like, “This is you taking care of a tiny planet.” (0:43:31) Al: Like, that’s what they said. (0:43:32) Al: It wasn’t like this is a space exploration game, right? (0:43:35) Al: This is a game where you’re running a tiny planet. (0:43:41) Al: And this is like, “Oh, hey, this is a farming simulator in space.” (0:43:46) Al: And it’s like, “But what does that even mean?” (0:43:48) Al: Like there has to be a point to say it’s in space, right? (0:43:53) Al: like everything’s in space, as we’ve pointed out. (0:43:55) Bev: I feel like we’re getting into the realm of, like, philosophical questions, like, what is the point of a cottagecore game, Elle? (0:43:55) Al: Right. (0:44:01) Bev: Like, what is– what is it that makes it cottagecore? (0:44:04) Bev: Like, why does it have to be in space? Why is it on– it has to be– [laughs] (0:44:11) Bev: Like, I– it’s a setting, and I think that is valid by itself, (0:44:17) Bev: even though it would be more interesting if they had other components that built it into the world more, rather than– (0:44:25) Bev: other than it just existing in space. [laughs] (0:44:29) Al: Okay, fine. I’ll give you that one. So in the comments, they say your planet will have its own code for you to share or not share with friends. Your planet is your own personal space to enjoy so that we know random users running around. So it’s it’s not an MMO. (0:44:46) Bev: It’s in space so that Nintendo doesn’t see them for using an island. (0:44:49) Al: Oh, so the game. I need I need more answers to this question because I’m not sure. So (0:44:59) Al: the game is always online regardless if you play with other players. Does that mean you cannot play it if you can’t (0:45:08) Bev: Probably. (0:45:09) Bev: Poly can’t play if you’re not connected to the internet, (0:45:12) Bev: if I recall correctly. (0:45:15) Bev: And that is also an MMO. (0:45:16) Bev: So maybe that is now what is the definition of an MMO. (0:45:19) Al: Yeah, I don’t I don’t like that. Because if you’re not if like, if I like, I get if it’s a game like the whole point is you’re being online and and you’re playing with other people and you’re playing in like a combined world, right? That’s fine. I get why that has to be always online. But if I have my own space, and I can do stuff in that space without ever actually playing with anybody else. Don’t make me be online for that. (0:45:20) Bev: It has to be online. (0:45:23) Bev: Yeah. (0:45:26) Bev: If you’re just playing by yourself. (0:45:47) Bev: - Then don’t play this game. (0:45:48) Bev: Go play Animal Craft. (0:45:49) Al: Well, I need to find out whether that’s the case or not, right? Because yeah, you’re right. (0:45:55) Al: If that’s what this is, I’m probably not going to back it. The FAQ doesn’t say anything about that. I’ve checked. I’m going to I’m going to tweet them. I will do that not while we’re, (0:45:58) Bev: - Uh-huh. (0:46:00) Bev: I wonder what the FAQs are. (0:46:04) Bev: Well, you just got to submit a new question. (0:46:10) Bev: Do it. (0:46:13) Al: you know, podcasting though. The other new game (0:46:13) Bev: » [LAUGH] (0:46:19) Al: is plan tabby plan to be plant. How would you plan to be? plan to be little garden plan to be is a chill sandbox game where you take care of adorable plants and design the cozy little garden of your dreams. I feel like it is what it says on the tin, right? You’ve got a little a little ins indoor garden, like a kind of it looks like there’s various different rooms that you can use and you choose (0:46:24) Bev: “Plant to me” sounds right. (0:46:46) Bev: Yeah. (0:46:49) Al: you put a plant down and presumably you have to like water it and feed it and take care of it and put it in the right place and it needs to have the right amount of sun. I mean it’s basically like (0:47:00) Bev: Okay, I (0:47:04) Bev: Love the concept of these games, but I’m just decision fatigued (0:47:10) Bev: So I would love to play this if everything had a place if I if there was a setting where I could just like I don’t Want to design anything. I just want to make things look pretty. Please make it pretty for me, but let me like (0:47:20) Bev: work at it (0:47:23) Bev: Like you do all the decision-heavy work I just get as I put in all the the labor to me to get what it needs (0:47:31) Bev: I don’t even know words. Um, but you know what I’m saying. I don’t (0:47:34) Al: I know what you’re saying, I know what you’re saying. (0:47:39) Bev: Like I I’m finding myself just moving away from these games that require like designing and decisions like (0:47:45) Bev: Disney dream valley. I don’t want to figure out where all the houses go because there’s too many houses (0:47:51) Al: Yeah. (0:47:51) Bev: Why isn’t there a setting where I could just be like this is where mickey mouse belongs. Please just put him in there put him there (0:47:56) Al: Yeah, I agree. Bad example, because I’m pretty sure that he comes, his house is there when you start the game. (0:48:02) Al: You don’t have to choose where his house goes, but fair point. (0:48:04) Bev: Yes. Yes. (0:48:07) Al: Like he’s literally one of the four characters you start with, Bev. (0:48:10) Bev: That’s why I don’t remember! (0:48:14) Bev: But everyone knows who Mickey Mouse is, so… (0:48:16) Al: Yes, yes. It’s a fair point, I agree. (0:48:16) Bev: The point stamps. (0:48:21) Al: Anyway. So those are the two new games. Links to them, of course, will be in the show notes, (0:48:28) Al: along with everything else that we’ve talked about. (0:48:31) Al: So whenever we’re going to talk about Akka… (0:48:34) Bev: Mm-hmm. (0:48:35) Al: So let’s see if I can describe this, see what you think of my description of this game. (0:48:41) Al: You are a red panda who fought in the war. The war. (0:48:48) Bev: a war just or the war mm-hmm (0:48:51) Al: They call it “The War”. They keep calling it “The War”. (0:48:55) Al: But I hope you don’t want to know about the war, because you’re not going to find out about the war. (0:49:01) Al: And you have a katana? That was your fighting implement? Your weapon? That’s the word “weapon”. (0:49:06) Bev: Yes. (0:49:08) Al: Fighting implement, oh my word. We’ve got a title there, fighting implement. (0:49:16) Al: And you have come to an island to help clean up a society. (0:49:21) Al: A society that has been ravaged by the war. (0:49:26) Al: And you do that by quests and, you know, cleaning up traps and farming and doing quests for people. (0:49:37) Bev: Yes, I think so. (0:49:38) Al: Is that a fair description of this game? (0:49:43) Al: OK, cool. (0:49:44) Al: Well, let’s - shall we start off with the things that I think we will be on the same page with being very positive about? (0:49:50) Bev: It’s so pretty, it’s, I, t

Talking about fat cells

Y'all... I am not one to get in a gym very easily. I love to dance and move and walk and enjoy nature, but after talking with Ashley Lowe, a fitness and strength coach, I think I am going to start focusing on some muscle building. After all, what I do is very physical. I pick up and haul around tons of stuff doing decluttering. But I may not always be able to do so. So, why not get really clear on strengthening my body to keep going as long as possible. I think you'll love Ashley. So smart and so compassionate. Here's a little bit about her. I hope you check her out! As she approached 40, Ashley embarked on a transformative journey, seeking change in her health, relationships, and overall happiness. Frustrated with body insecurities, she joined a weightloss program, shedding 25 pounds and discovering mindful nutrition. Realizing she was built for more than a smaller pair of pants, she then hired a strength training coach, which led to a complete physique transformation. Now Ashley is the coach she wished she had during her journey. She empowers women with smart, effective training programs to build muscle, embrace their bodies and feel extraordinary.Ashley has created a Free Guide to Home Gym Essentials for women who want to makeover their catch-all room into a hardworking home gym.https://ashleyboydenlowe.com/home-gym-checklist/ If you'd like to learn more about Ashley's online training programs, she offers a free 30-minute Flab to Fab Framework Session.

“The starting point is, and the research questions are all framed by: 'We know it's terrible to be fat, but how terrible is it?' Not: 'What would it take to give effective healthcare to fat people?'” says Aubrey Gordon, writer of the new book You Just need to Lose Weight and 19 Other Myths About Fat People, star of the documentary Your Fat Friend, and podcaster of Maintenance Phase. And it's not just healthcare where the alignment of 'fat' with 'unhealthy' - and 'thinner' with 'healthier' - becomes problematic and often very dangerous. "I really don't think people contend with the ways in which they are sending a message to everyone around them that there is a weight limit for people that they will love." Content note: this episode contains discussions of body size, body image, weight, anti-fatness, illness including cancer, diet culture, weight loss - intentional and un - and eating disorders. And there are some category A swears.  This is the second of two episodes about the word ‘fat'. In Fatlusionist part 1, Aubrey and I discuss euphemisms for fat, why people avoid saying ‘fat', what else people mean when they say ‘fat' and how it would be quite good if people said ‘fat' as just a descriptive term for ‘fat'. Find out more about this episode and the topics therein at theallusionist.org/fat2, where there's also a transcript.

It should just be an accurate descriptor of my body, but the word 'fat' has shaped so much more of my life, and our society. "There is this whole set of baggage that we are all culturally bringing to this word all the time," says Aubrey Gordon, writer of the new book You Just need to Lose Weight and 19 Other Myths About Fat People, star of the documentary Your Fat Friend, and podcaster of Maintenance Phase. In the next episode, Aubrey and I will discuss how the word 'fat' is often aligned with 'unhealthy', despite ample research demonstrating otherwise.

Today, I'm talking about our 30 Day Fitness Challenge. We're going to title this Fit and Fabulous, Fight the Flab: 30 Day Fitness Challenge for the Busy Mom. And I'm going to explain all of that right here. Even if you're listening to this at another place in time, our fitness challenge could be passed. It could be full. I'm going to explain it to you anyways, because there could come a time in the future where we're going to run another one, most likely that you may want to join. You can also take some tips, like if you're looking at someone else's 30 day challenge and you're like, whoa, that person doesn't offer half the value these guys do. Why would I go? Or maybe you don't want to sign up with us. Maybe you want more information about a 30 day challenge and you want to know what to expect. At any rate, I'm going to hang out with you for the next 30 minutes or so. We're going to talk about the fitness challenge and what it's all about and what you should look for the next time you're looking for a fitness challenge.

October 11, 2022 Daily Devotion: "No Pain, No Gain…" 1 Timothy 4:7-8 New International Version 7 Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives' tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. 8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. Are you among the millions who regularly hit the road or the gym to get a good workout? Flab is out; exercise is in-at least for those willing to commit the time and energy to lose that weight, tone those muscles, and get the heart pumping. But make no mistake, exercise is hard work! Forget All those slick television ads promising miraculous results from effortless diets and gadgets. The saying is as true as it is trite: No pain, no gain. And that would be regular pain. "Hit and miss" won't cut it. "On-again, off-again" only exacerbates the pain during the on-again time. So before you sign up for that pricey club membership, you had better double-check that you are committed for the long haul. One day off and the next day it's easier to skip. Two consecutive days playing hooky from the grueling routine and the third day will pass with barely a twinge of conscience. Before you know it, the flab is back and the muscle tone has gone! For one who referred to fighting fights and finishing races, Paul certainly would have known the value of physical training. Yet Paul highlights the far greater eternal-value of godly exercise. Considering that even the best toned bodies will eventually die and decompose, exercising the soul must surely take top priority. Yet it would be surprising indeed if, even among believers, there was nearly as much time and effort devoted to exercising spiritual muscles as physical ones. Of course, for those who would take spiritual exercise seriously, the secret to success is no secret. For spiritual exercise, as with physical exercise, all the same rigorous rules apply. The daunting question is: How can I hope to be fit for eternity if I shrink from the painful daily routine of stretching myself spiritually? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gerzon-etino/message

In this episode with James Williams, PhD - a professor, entrepreneur, business strategist and best-selling author: ✔️ From thug to scholar: how James turned his life around, ✔️ Proven tactics to overcome fear and live a limitless life, ✔️ Learning to seek validation internally and spiritually, ✔️ How to test your empathy and apply inclusivity, and much more! Dr. James Williams is a professor, entrepreneur, best-selling author, actor, international teaching strategist, business strategist, and one of the world's top speakers. Dr. Williams is a man who wore a mask for many years, by masking himself as a thug. He lost his virginity at 13 to avoid teasing from his peers, and he started selling crack at 13 to appear hardcore among his middle school peers. Ultimately, these poor decisions and his negative, perpetual way of thinking led him to drop out of school and run away from home at 16 years old. He had two kids at 17 years of age and dedicated his time to street life with the BLOODS while living in Fayetteville, NC until almost claiming someone's life at the age of 19. Dr. James Williams now lives in Knoxville, TN, where he serves as an associate (tenured) professor at the University of Tennessee. Dr. Williams also serves as the president/owner of UnmaskYTP, LLC consulting. Recently, Dr. Williams has released, "Check Your Life: Be Limitless" a highly anticipated read that is based on his TEDx Talk. Dr. Williams wrote two Amazon bestsellers From Thug to Scholar: An Odyssey to Unmask my True Potential and Flab to Abs, to complete the mind and body aspect of his mind, body, and spirit approach to life. Dr. Williams has performed as a Keynote speaker for graduations, prisons, fortune 100 businesses, churches, school systems, sororities/fraternities, sports camps, university athletic programs; and he has won numerous speech competitions for Toastmaster's International. Currently, Dr. Williams serves as an international speaker: Barcelona, Bulgaria, Paris, Valencia, London, and China. Tune in!

Join Vera-Lee as she introduces the podcast WTF.lab. What, The, Flab instead of WTF (You know the one! - although everyone who has struggled with weight has had a WTF moment, or two, as well!). Flab is a term used for the excess weight held particularly on arms, legs tummies and butts, and also applies to the loose skin when a large amount of weight is lost along with the skin tone.It also refers to the fact that I believe everyone who has been obese, or overweight, had had many WTF moments in their lives, so yes, at times you may exchange the WTF.lab with WTF! However, the .lab is all about the positive approach to weight loss with small changes you can implement today, wherever you are on your journey. I am all about seizing opportunities, and as someone who was 196.4kgs (440lbs) and has lost a whole person before WLS, I know a little about the journey and plan to help you with great tips and encouragement for how you too can join me on the losers bench (the good one!).Do you know the difference between and dream and a goal? Spoiler alert! It's the movement! The action you take. That's the big secret. That's where the WhyMeMovement is all about the actions we take including the decisions we make - discovering the opportunities to grow and learn through adversity. Vera-Lee has a special interest in helping people on a weight loss  journey, particularly those who relate to morbid obesity, former/forever athletes, pre or post weight loss surgery, chronic illness and disability. Vera-Lee understands how to help you with the emotional and mental side of weight loss and conditioning, using a combination of techniques and allied professionals to best support your unique needs.She is a  coach who applies techniques for calm yet powerful sessions to help you achieve goals and improve your personal and professional confidence in every area of your life.If you really want to achieve results in your life and you are ready to commit to the process with Vera-Lee, who understands what it is like to overcome adversity, time and time again, you can book your discovery call now by clicking this link  to find out how she can help you overcome your obstacles and rediscover passion and confidence to set and achieve those goals you desire. Vera-Lee hosts the WTF.lab and WhyMe podcasts as a woman who has gone through so much herself she is often referred to as "the adversity queen".

**This episode features the premiere of "Sunday Afternoon" at the end of the interview** Float Like A Buffalo is quickly becoming a household name in Denver and beyond. The 7-piece funk/rock outfit put out their rookie full-length in 2019, and since then has performed on pretty much every major stage in Denver metro including: Red Rocks, Levitt Pavilion, and The Gothic Theater. They were also crowned "Best Funk Band" in Denver Westword's 2019 Music Awards. This is the most people I've ever had on the podcast! In fact, before The Movers & Shakers (episode 33) it had never been more than just me and one person on the other side of the mic. Because of that, I do highly recommend watching this episode on YouTube. There is audio and video so you can see who is speaking at all times (and also see who has the best facial hair). It can be found on my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/asydow19 This episode is also a "part 2" of sorts to last weeks conversation with Alyssa Montaño and Sarah Shuel. Alyssa and Sarah are both the brains and brawn behind the Rocky Mountain Virtual Music Festival, which started as an outlet for musicians and fans alike stuck in quarantine. Alyssa is dating Luke Story of FLAB (not present in this interview, and he just turned 30 a couple days ago... HBD!!). Sarah is the band manager and is dating Corey Pearman (is present in this interview, and is rocking a commendable "quaran-stash").
