In this our second episode discussing work from poet Eli Karren, we're shifting timelines, story lines, wine time, and coffee time. We welcome special guest, Tobi Kassim, as part of the podcast team for the day. (We'll be “sprinkling” special guests throughout the upcoming season!) We dig into Eli's richly detailed poem “Franchise Reboot” which nods to David Lynch's nineties TV phenom, Twin Peaks, along with the Museum of Popular Culture, Ikea furniture, Matthea Harvey's poem “The Future of Terror,” and Wandavision, among other touchstones. The team questions some of the advice we've received on what should or should not be included in poems: dreams, color lists, center justification, cicadas. It's an airing of pet peeves, Slushies. And then we decide to get over ourselves. Tune in with a slice of cherry pie. As always, thanks for listening. At the table: Tobi Kassim, Kathleen Volk Miller, Marion Wrenn, Lisa Zerkle, and Lillie Volpe (Sound Engineer) @eli.james.karren on Instagram Eli Karren is a poet and educator based in Austin, TX. His work can be found in the swamp pink, At Length, Palette Poetry, and the Harvard Review. Franchise Reboot We sat at the diner in Snoqualmie quoting lines back and forth to each other. Saying what we could remember, without fidelity, without choosing a character or a scene. We got the coffee, the cherry pie, took pictures with a piece of wood that the waitress passed across the bar, cradling it like a newborn. Earlier, we had gone to the waterfall, and I confessed that I had been falling in love with a coworker. Or rather, that it felt that way. Melodramatic. Full of will they won't they tension. You said, expertly, that that was probably the only exciting thing about it. That not everything in life has to be a soap opera. Later that night, when you went off to chaperone a high school dance I saw a movie about a woman who fucks a car. Outside the theater, some guys smoked cigarettes and wondered aloud if originality was dead. I told them that the only glimmer of the original is the terroir, the local language, the dialect and vernacular. All the shit you suppress when you move away from your childhood home. The things you pay a therapist to excise from you in a room comprised only of Ikea furniture. On the long Uber back to your house I thought about the future of nostalgia, the car careening through downtown Seattle, past the Shawn Kemp Cannabis shop, and the Museum of Pop Culture, which held a laser light show on its lawn. The whole drive I had the words tangled in my brain and was trying to recite Matthea Harvey's “The Future of Terror.” I remembered only the generalissimo's glands and the scampering, the faint sounds of its recitation humming below the car's looping advertisements for Wandavision. In my head the possibility of infinite worlds thrummed. Once, at a farmers market, I watched an elderly man wander through the stands, past the kids playing with pinwheels and eating ice cream, a VR headset strapped to his face, his hat in his hand, the muffled sound of tears in his vicinity. I always wondered what he had seen. What reduced him to tears on a May afternoon, his hands splayed forward, a little drunk with sun and regret, reaching out towards something. III. This, I tend to gussy up at parties. A lie I tell myself because I want to believe in true love. As I say in the diner the owls are not what they seem. But at what point does the false supercede the real? When you came home, I was crying on the couch, rewatching its rejection of closure. Its protagonist catatonic for sixteen hours, a walking talking middle finger. Just so we can have this moment where he says the line and has the suit and we hear the famous song and are embraced again. Seeing you, seeing old friends this is how I always feel. Reminded of this pond deep in the woods. Somewhere I went to only once but keep returning to in dreams. I remember how we hiked an hour out and slipped below the water as the sun began to set. In the dream, sometimes there is an island. Sometimes we swim to its surface. Sometimes the moon arises, its gravity pulling us deeper out above the blackness where the shale slips to the bottom. I'm never sure if it is when I sink into the water or exit that I become someone else. Wake always with a lyric on my lips. This is the me I've missed. The one that survives the factory reset, the franchise reboot. The one I dreamt of every morning when closure was something to be evaded, treated like the cars in a Frogger game. But not here, with you, halfway across the country. If I grasp gently, I can take the headset from my eyes. I can almost see where the red curtains part and the sycamores begin.

Send us a textCrossing into Washington state when you're on the northbound Pacific Crest Trail, or NOBO, is a milestone–a damn smile-stone. Crossing the Bridge of the Gods with no proper pedestrian path is akin to Frogger. But once across, you might have the urge to fling your arms up to the sky and shout a victory hoot. After replenishing your supplies in town you hit the trail again, and that's when Washington hits, and hits hard. The conditions and terrain change fast. Just when you're ready to call it quits, the next peak comes into view, coaxing you north. Alone in your tent? You wonder if you'll survive the cold that night, kicking yourself for not setting out a month earlier. You fall asleep imagining your trail family is camped out in tents beside yours. But some of them pulled the pin on the trail days earlier. And you're left missing them like a phantom limb.Let's get into it.Washington's nickname is the Evergreen State. Doesn't that sound inviting? Cozy even? Sweet, like a week at summer camp? Well, Washington is no laughing matter.Washington has serious weather, active volcanoes, not to mention creepy lore about UFOs, Bigfoot, globs raining down on towns, teen vampires and werewolves and the all-too-real-serial killers. This is where all that subreddit-binging catches up with you. What seemed entertaining in the safety of your bedroom, funny even, alone on the trail, far removed from population center, those stories flood your imagination. Add a little fog, the cries of an owl, not spotting another hiker for a few miles, and the trail can feel brutal and endless.

Steve Kranish, Parker Brothers Frogger Steve Kranish is the creator of the Atari 8-bit and Atari 5200 versions of Frogger, the versions published by Parker Brothers. Parker Brothers had the rights to publish cartridge versions of Frogger. Sierra On-Line had already published versions of Frogger on floppy disk and cassette, so Parker Brothers bought the rights to use that version as the basis for its cartridge version. But there were a few problems: for one, the 13K cassette game would need to be shrunk to fit on an 8K cartridge. Another: the source code was lost. Steve also worked on an Atari 8-bit version of the board game Risk, and a game called Baker's Dozen, both of which were unfinished. He also worked on Project Zelda, Parker Brothers investigation into distributing Atari VCS games via cable television. This interview took place on March 2, 2025. In 2016, I interviewed John Harris, who programmed the Sierra Online version of Frogger (as well as Jawbreaker and Mouskattack). Check the show notes for the link to that.

On this episode, British journalist, author and video game critic for The Observer Simon Parkin reaches into the more obscure corners of Amis's bibliography to dissect a dazzling collection of arcade game reviews published circa 1982. Entitled Invasion of the Space Invaders, this glossy publication starts with Amis's recollection of the moment these machines stole his heart, after a Space Invaders console makes its debut in a bar in the South of France.It goes on to chart the best arcade games of the era, offering Amis's review of everything from Pac-Man to Donkey Kong, to Frogger, to Missile Command. We also get his firsthand observations from the scuffed floors of New York's seediest video parlours of who this new medium is attracting, why it is so captivating to its devotees, and what it is costing both them and society at large.Simon explains how Amis first fuelled his aspirations to write as a freelance journalist, and why his work remains both aspirational and relatable to this day.FOLLOW US ON TWITTER/ X: @mymartinamis Hosted on Acast.

Frogger The Board Game is a reimagining of the classic arcade game for 2 to 4 players ages 8 and up. In the game, you are a frog, trying to cross a road or a river filled with obstacles, and beat your opponents to the finish line. While the tactile part of the game was fun, we felt the game itself was mostly average, and that the instructions needed a bit of work for clarity.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen Hey Folks! Apologies for another missed show last week but Bel very narrowly missed some Twisty Weather. This week we start off the show with a discussion of Grace's recent experiences in Diablo IV and how the game has changed for the better. From there we talk about Final Fantasy XIV Dawntrail and how a number of us are on the fence about playing it. Ammo shares her thoughts about the expansion. Bel talks about his recent experience with Pandaria Remix and how it has jarred him out of his stupor when it comes to forming groups and playing with other human beings. Bel also shares some of the recent happenings with the Frogger incident. Tam discusses his dive into Warhammer Orks and how they are maybe the best that game has to offer in the vibes department. We close out the show with some discussion about a weirdly good Random PVP mode in AFK Journey. Topics Discussed: Grace's experiences with Diablo IV AmmosArt Explains FFXIV Dawntrail World of Warcraft Pandaria Remix The Frogger Incident Orks are the best of Warhammer Random PVP Mode in AFK Journey
