On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got a reunion of sorts, in celebration of a new release of old music: It's David Pajo, Cassie Berman, and Tim Furnish. These three met in the fertile Louisville scene of the early 1990s. Pajo played guitar in the wildly influential band Slint and went on to play with Tortoise, Royal Trux, Stereolab, and Interpol at various times over the years—he's currently a member of Gang Of Four. But the subject of this conversation is Pajo's sorta-solo career, which went through various M-names, from just M to Papa M and Aerial M. As Aerial M, Pajo brought on some friends for a brief time to tour Europe, where they recorded a Peel Session—more on that in a minute. The friends that Pajo recruited to play in the Aerial M live band were Tim Furnish, whose legendary Louisville band Crain had broken up recently—and who has since recorded experimental rock with the band Parlour—as well as Cassie Berman and Tony Bailey. Berman had been kicking around in Louisville bands, too, and she would go on to join Silver Jews, the band fronted by her husband, David Berman. Drummer Tony Bailey, as you'll hear, played in about a million bands in the area—he died, sadly, in 2009. The reason for today's reunion of the lineup that burned bright but quick is the release of Aerial M's new Peel Sessions album. In case you're unfamiliar, BBC DJ John Peel used to invite the coolest bands of his day—from the ‘70s into the 2000s—to record a few songs specifically for his show, many of which were later released with the same striking artwork. In 1998, Aerial M stopped by and recorded three songs that would turn out quite different to the versions Pajo crafted in the studio, and would really be the only evidence that this lineup left of its existence. Pajo was recently reminded of this session, so he set about tracking down the tapes, sprucing them up, and handing them over to Drag City for a proper release—including an amazing replica of those original John Peel Sessions sleeves. Check out the song “Vivea” right here. I don't think these three had sat down for a chat in a while, so it's like sitting in on a reunion with three people who have a lot of fond memories. They talk about their '98 tour, including the recording of this record, plus they get into fond remembrances of Tony Bailey, racing Stereolab to the record store, and even what they're up to now: Just a few days before this recording, Cassie Berman participated in a tribute to David Berman on the anniversary of his untimely passing, and Furnish has been working on some cool-sounding visual art for other bands. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to David Pajo, Cassie Berman, and Tim Furnish for chatting.

The Middle East is in turmoil, but trying to understand the conflict in terms of simple geopolitics doesn't provide good answers. Iran is using proxies in Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen to attack Israel and pressure the West. But Iran is a Shia nation while its most violent proxy, Hamas, is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, a Sunni group that wants to restore the caliphate—which was based in Turkey. Dr. Timothy Furnish, a scholar of Islamic eschatology, joins us to help untangle the web that binds together Shias and Sunnis, and Persians and Arabs, in their opposition to Israel and the West.We highly recommend Tim's books Holiest Wars, Ten Years' Captivation with the Mahdi's Camps, Sects, Lies and the Caliphate, and The COIN of the Islamic Realm.Tim's books are available in hard copy and Kindle format at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Timothy-R.-Furnish/author/B001KDHY64

Marc Hostovsky is the founder of Minoan. Prior to leaving to start Minoan, Marc was an early employee at Jet.com (later acquired by WMT in 2016 for $3.3B) where he managed a $400M omnichannel P&L and spent a lot of time between the walls of traditional retail (WMT) and eCommerce (Jet.com). After spending over a decade in retail, Marc saw an opportunity to shift the economic relationship between suppliers and consumers, specifically short-term rental hosts. By turning these properties into showrooms for brands, the concept of “Native Retail” was born. Native Retail is the idea of illuminating everyday spaces like short term rentals, gyms, restaurants, etc., and turning them into showrooms for the products and brands that are in those spaces. That way, consumers can test out products in environments which the products were designed for, and if they like them, they can easily learn more and even purchase them at that moment. As featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, and Sunset Magazine, Minoan is an all-in-one, free, ordering platform hosts can use to systematize furnishing. Hosts can buy from 200+ brands at steep discounts and save the hassle of dealing with messy logistics (tracking, customer service, etc.). One thing that sets Minoan apart from other purchasing organizations is we can also help turn your STR into a shoppable experience so guests can order the items they loved from their stay, and you can make a little extra money.

Rob shares a variety of insights and lessons that have stood out to him from his recent readings and experiences. He discusses the importance of furnishing one's life with truth, courage, and beauty, and how these virtues can enhance leadership, management, and coaching. Rob also explores the value of learning from defeat and the power of commitment, even in the face of adversity. He delves into the concept of constantly moving from theory to practice to mastery, emphasising the importance of energy, work, and love in living a fulfilling life.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Remember to furnish your life with truth, courage, and beauty. This noble aim can guide leaders, managers, and coaches in their endeavours. There are valuable lessons in defeat, while victory offers only one lesson. Embrace defeat as an opportunity for analysis and growth. The worse you feel, the more committed you become. Emotions should not dictate your level of commitment. Push through challenges and maintain dedication regardless of how you feel. Constantly move from theory to practice to mastery. Seek knowledge and understanding, apply it in practice, and continue to improve until you reach mastery. Be present and focus on the present moment. Avoid getting caught up in past traumas or future worries. Tolerate others but hold yourself to high standards. Limit your thoughts to the present and deal with what is in front of you now. BEST MOMENTS "Remember to furnish your life with truth, courage, and beauty."  "There are a thousand lessons in defeat, but only one in victory." "The worse I feel, the more committed I become."  "Constantly go from theory to practice to mastery."  "Be tolerant with others and strict with yourself. Limit your thoughts to the present and deal with what's in front of you now."  VALUABLE RESOURCES https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/leader-manager-coach-podcast/id1370481271?mt=2 https://www.robryles.co.uk/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMPYDVzZVnA https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertryles/?originalSubdomain=uk HOST BIO Rob Ryles is a UEFA A licensed coach with a League Managers Association qualification and a science and medicine background.

We took a break from our normal routine of Reformational history and theology. In this episode, Andrew is joined by Frank Hughes, a friend and colleague in ministry who served in the same diocese as him. Frank is also New Testament scholar who has recently co-written a book with his friend and fellow New Testament scholar the late Robert Jewett titled The Corinthian Correspondence: Redaction, Rhetoric, and History. In this book, Hughes and Jewett argue for a partition theory of 1st & 2nd Corinthians (or, that the letters we have today are actually edited, or redacted, products pieced together after Paul from several smaller letters that Paul actually wrote.) This made for a fun talk considering that Frank is a self-described "unrepentant historical critic" while Andrew sees himself more as "post-critical". Enjoy! Frank Hughes holds a Ph.D. through Northwestern University and Garrett Evangelical Theological Seminary where he studied under Robert Jewett. He also holds degrees from the University of Chicago and Seabury-Western Seminary. He has taught New Testament at numerous institutions including Codrington College in Barbados where he was Senior Lecturer. He currently serves as Priest-in-Residence at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer in Ruston, LA. Visit his website here Shownotes -The books that Andrew studied in the seminar he mentioned that he took at Garrett were Theology and Ethics in Paul by V.P. Furnish  and Solidarity and Difference: A Contemporary Reading of Paul's Ethics. -The books Frank mentioned that argued for 1st Corinthians being an integral letter were Paul and the Rhetoric of Reconciliation by Margaret Mitchell and Sacra Pagina: First Corinthians by Raymond Collins. The book Andrew mentioned that argued for both 1st & 2nd Corinthians as integral letters was Donald Hall's Unity of the Corinthian Correspondence. -The past studies on partition theories that Frank referred to in the episode were Robert Jewett's article "The Redaction of I Corinthians and the Trajectory of the Pauline School" from the Journal of the American Academy of Religion and Günther Bornkamm's study "Die Vorgeschichte des sogenannten zweiten Korintherbriefes". -Frank mentioned two important works on culture and rhetoric in Paul's time: George Kennedy's The Art of Rhetoric in the Roman World and Judaism and Hellenism by Martin Hengel. The book Andrew mentioned where Luke Timothy Johnson finds some New Testament rhetorical-criticism to be excessive is Constructing Paul: The Canonical Paul, vol. 1    

Richard Dawkins and I have appeared together onstage many times, been the subject of the documentary The Unbelievers, and have collaborated on various writing projects as well. Thus it may come as a surprise to you to learn that each time we get together, we find new things to discuss and learn from each other. It surprises us as well. This fall we agreed to appear onstage together at two separate events co-sponsored by The Origins Project. The events, entitled Changing Minds in Changing Times were coordinated by Atheist UK and were in London and Birmingham. In both events I gave short presentations, and at the end of the event Richard and I appeared together onstage for a dialogue. At the first event I was able to discuss with Richard his latest book, Books do Furnish a Life, and at the second event, for the first time, Richard interviewed me, for his new podcast, The Poetry of Reality. We have combined these two dialogues here into a single podcast. Together they cover a broad collection of subjects, from science, to science communication, and finally to the threats to free inquiry now occurring in higher education. As always, I find it an absolute pleasure to spend time conversing with Richard. He is charming, eloquent, and insightful. I hope you enjoy these newest discussions as much as I did. As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers. Your subscriptions support the non-profit Origins Project Foundation, which produces the podcast. The audio version is available free on the Critical Mass site and on all podcast sites, and the video version will also be available on the Origins Project Youtube channel as well.

Youtube https://youtu.be/hw_RBoefm7Q https://www.helenglen.com Life Coach & Business Coach & Grief Coach I found that, for some women, there were aspects of their personal life that were holding them back from achieving their business success, and that it was helping women with these aspects that I found most rewarding. Therefore, I completed training as a life coach, and began to focus on helping female entrepreneurs who wanted more than just a business coach. Through my own, personal experience, with the untimely loss of my mother, then father, and most significantly, my teenage son, I have learned a lot about how to deal with the loss of a loved one, and how the grieving process can interfere with running a successful business. I am passionate about putting the difficult lessons that I have learned to good use by helping women in business who are dealing with grief - especially women who have lost a baby or a child. Author of Empowerment Journals In 2019 I authored and self-published a set of five empowerment and personal development journals.

[02:40.000 –> 02:42.000] I got up to a town hall 10. [02:42.000 –> 02:43.000] Now I have a second all to count. [02:43.000 –> 02:45.000] I don’t know why. [02:45.000 –> 02:49.000] So I’ve been doing a lot of that. [02:49.000 –> 02:54.000] I’m occasionally playing, what am I playing? [02:54.000 –> 02:55.000] Oh, goodness. [02:55.000 –> 02:58.000] The one, Cora Island, that one. [02:58.000 –> 02:59.000] Oh, yeah. [02:59.000 –> 03:00.000] Uh-huh. [03:00.000 –> 03:03.000] And I also got Fire Emblem engaged last weekend. [03:03.000 –> 03:09.000] So I’ve been also trying to put some time in a minute a day or so, as [03:09.000 –> 03:11.000] I do in that. [03:11.000 –> 03:12.000] Yeah. [03:12.000 –> 03:14.000] How about you? [03:14.000 –> 03:17.000] Work, work, work, work, work. [03:18.000 –> 03:24.000] So I am about to do my comprehensive exam, which is basically in my [03:24.000 –> 03:27.000] university, it’s different at every university, but at my university in my [03:27.000 –> 03:31.000] department, it’s basically where I stand in front of my committee of five [03:31.000 –> 03:35.000] people and say, this is what I want to do my research on. [03:35.000 –> 03:39.000] And it’s funny because it’s like, here are two, excuse me, here are two [03:39.000 –> 03:43.000] chapters that I’ve already finished. [03:43.000 –> 03:47.000] So you can’t tell me I can’t do that because I already did it. [03:47.000 –> 03:52.000] And then here are two chapters that I have made that I have an idea of [03:52.000 –> 03:53.000] what I’m going to do. [03:53.000 –> 03:56.000] One of them is in progress, so I think if anything, they would just be [03:56.000 –> 04:00.000] like change how you’re asking the questions. [04:00.000 –> 04:03.000] And then the other one is kind of like this offshoot from that. [04:03.000 –> 04:07.000] And so basically the question is like, is that enough? [04:07.000 –> 04:11.000] This is the exam where they are like, wow, look at all the things you’re [04:11.000 –> 04:15.000] doing, but it’s not enough for PhD. [04:15.000 –> 04:22.000] And then you have a chance to like add to it and redo it later. [04:22.000 –> 04:26.000] Or they could just be like, you good, looks great. [04:26.000 –> 04:28.000] Like get her done, you know? [04:28.000 –> 04:30.000] So we’ll see. [04:30.000 –> 04:33.000] But that’s in like a week and a half. [04:33.000 –> 04:37.000] So that’s exciting question mark. [04:37.000 –> 04:42.000] But like after that, I don’t have anything until my defense, which will [04:42.000 –> 04:46.000] be in like October of 2025. [04:46.000 –> 04:52.000] So I literally would just be collecting my insects, identifying them, [04:52.000 –> 04:56.000] going to conferences, writing my papers, like all of that, like getting [04:56.000 –> 05:02.000] all of that stuff done, likely doing any extra chapters that come along [05:02.000 –> 05:07.000] because every single time I collect field work data, I like. [05:07.000 –> 05:11.000] Well, I talked to my, I talked to like my collaborator and my advisor [05:11.000 –> 05:13.000] and I’m like, Oh wow, I found this cool thing. [05:13.000 –> 05:14.000] And they’re like, let’s write a paper about it. [05:14.000 –> 05:17.000] And I’m like, no, please. [05:17.000 –> 05:19.000] So yeah, I’ve been doing that. [05:19.000 –> 05:24.000] I haven’t really been playing games, but I’ve been in like that nostalgic, [05:24.000 –> 05:29.000] like rewatch movie series that you’ve watched a billion times. [05:29.000 –> 05:33.000] I’ve been reading a lot of books lately. [05:33.000 –> 05:39.000] So that’s, that’s kind of my, Oh, I did, I did download like Tetris on my phone. [05:39.000 –> 05:43.000] There’s this Tetris app that you can get on your phone and you earn like [05:43.000 –> 05:49.000] these VIP points and if you get 4 million VIP points, which is like ridiculous. [05:49.000 –> 05:54.000] But if you get 4 million VIP points, you get an eight day cruise to Alaska. [05:54.000 –> 05:55.000] Amazing. [05:55.000 –> 05:56.000] You can like turn them in. [05:56.000 –> 05:58.000] Like you can turn in all these points for like legit things. [05:58.000 –> 06:05.000] Like if you live in, if you live in that one place where people gamble, Vegas. [06:05.000 –> 06:07.000] That one place. [06:07.000 –> 06:12.000] There’s like, you can get like a free night in MGM or, you know, [06:12.000 –> 06:16.000] with a very small amount of points, you can get 15% off your thing [06:16.000 –> 06:17.000] and you don’t ever have to pay. [06:17.000 –> 06:20.000] You just like watch the dumb ads in between a Tetris game. [06:20.000 –> 06:21.000] But like, I don’t care. [06:21.000 –> 06:24.000] I just put my phone down and play with my dog and then I’m like, Oh, cool. [06:24.000 –> 06:25.000] The ad’s done. [06:25.000 –> 06:27.000] Yeah, yeah, exactly. [06:27.000 –> 06:29.000] I’ve been joined with a cat. [06:29.000 –> 06:33.000] So if you hear any purring, that’s her. [06:33.000 –> 06:35.000] I just thought you were purring. [06:35.000 –> 06:36.000] No. [06:36.000 –> 06:37.000] Yes. [06:37.000 –> 06:38.000] Yes. [06:38.000 –> 06:40.000] No, I’m also a cat. [06:40.000 –> 06:41.000] I have it. [06:41.000 –> 06:42.000] I have it. [06:42.000 –> 06:47.000] OK, so we can get into the news. [06:47.000 –> 06:49.000] OK, so first bit of news here. [06:49.000 –> 06:56.000] Everdream Valley is going to release on the switch on June 23rd. [06:57.000 –> 06:58.000] I’m trying to think. [06:58.000 –> 07:02.000] I think that by the time this is out, it’ll be it’ll be up. [07:02.000 –> 07:04.000] You can you can play the game. [07:04.000 –> 07:05.000] You can do the time. [07:05.000 –> 07:07.000] The time is real. [07:07.000 –> 07:08.000] Yes. [07:09.000 –> 07:10.000] This looks super cute. [07:10.000 –> 07:12.000] It’s like a little farming. [07:12.000 –> 07:17.000] I mean, it says like that farming is its main one of its main things. [07:17.000 –> 07:19.000] But you’re like a small child. [07:19.000 –> 07:25.000] The look of the child makes me think that you like is abandoned on this island. [07:25.000 –> 07:29.000] And I’m like, why is he the one doing all of this stuff? [07:29.000 –> 07:33.000] But I feel like this gives me like someone more like vibes. [07:33.000 –> 07:34.000] Uh huh. [07:34.000 –> 07:35.000] OK. [07:35.000 –> 07:40.000] Like just a small child living by herself on a island, taking care of her a little. [07:40.000 –> 07:41.000] Oh, yeah. [07:41.000 –> 07:42.000] That’s what it feels like. [07:42.000 –> 07:44.000] I’m just like, what? [07:44.000 –> 07:45.000] Get it like find parents. [07:45.000 –> 07:47.000] What are you doing? [07:47.000 –> 07:50.000] What an industrious child, though. [07:50.000 –> 07:55.000] Um, I watched the trailer and the beekeeping looks great. [07:55.000 –> 08:05.000] And by that, I mean, it showed it showed the like a really big close up of the hives and it just had bees all over the screen. [08:05.000 –> 08:09.000] Like I was like, yeah, that’s how it feels. [08:09.000 –> 08:13.000] And you collect bugs, which is always fun. [08:13.000 –> 08:14.000] I’m in. [08:14.000 –> 08:17.000] I feel like the name is a little unfortunate. [08:17.000 –> 08:24.000] Like if they came up with this name like two to three years ago and then Dreamlight Valley came out. [08:24.000 –> 08:27.000] Yeah, that’s true. [08:27.000 –> 08:31.000] Also, ever dream valley makes me think that he’s like in a coma. [08:31.000 –> 08:32.000] Oh, my goodness. [08:32.000 –> 08:34.000] And this is all a hallucination. [08:34.000 –> 08:35.000] Yes, that’s exactly what’s happening. [08:35.000 –> 08:36.000] It does. [08:36.000 –> 08:38.000] It should end. [08:38.000 –> 08:41.000] You beat the game and zoom out. [08:41.000 –> 08:43.000] He’s not actually doing like child like labor. [08:43.000 –> 08:44.000] Oh, my gosh. [08:44.000 –> 08:46.000] I mean, better. [08:46.000 –> 08:47.000] No, no, not better. [08:47.000 –> 08:48.000] Not better. [08:48.000 –> 08:51.000] Um, God, we are unhinged. [08:51.000 –> 08:56.000] Okay, so that is ever dream valley coming to switch on the 23rd of June. [08:56.000 –> 08:57.000] The next one is flutter away. [08:57.000 –> 09:00.000] This is capybara game number two. [09:00.000 –> 09:06.000] Yes, capybara game number one will always forever in our hearts be capybara spa. [09:06.000 –> 09:23.000] Um, but flutter away is quote pulled this from the steam enjoy the serenity of the Amazon rainforest and this cozy short nature exploration game as a butterfly researcher on a five day camping trip explored nearby tracks take photos me animal friends and journal journal [09:23.000 –> 09:36.000] the discoveries found along the way, and quote, if you eagle eyed eagle eared listeners could hear me pause after a butterfly research. [09:36.000 –> 09:42.000] As I like was like, I know I saw this on the which McCall at the wholesome game. [09:43.000 –> 09:53.000] And I was like, I need to be a researcher in my virtual life, as well as well I’m not research IRL but I need. [09:53.000 –> 10:06.000] So I’m here for it. But like, it looked so cool because like you put a stick out that I’m assuming has some kind of like thing that attracts butterflies on it and like nectar or something. [10:06.000 –> 10:13.000] And then you have to like pull it really really slowly towards you if you pull it too fast and they’re like what the heck and they like fly away. [10:13.000 –> 10:21.000] But you’re basically like what from the trailer it looked like you’re trying to figure out like the diversity of butterflies in this area. [10:21.000 –> 10:26.000] And you and you have a capybara friend. [10:27.000 –> 10:28.000] Okay. [10:28.000 –> 10:46.000] I’m speaking of capybaras I just remember this. I saw a video yesterday that said that capybaras can swim five kilometers an hour underwater, like, they literally just like walk along the bottom of me or whatever and they just like kick off and zoom by you it’s Holy Holy [10:46.000 –> 10:57.000] Hekaru. They are very, very fast little sprightly things that are very fast little rodents, or big rodents, big rodents, biggest rodents Yes, correct. [10:57.000 –> 11:09.000] Um, I don’t think that they’re going to be swimming in this game but flutter away releases on steam and switch on the third of August, maybe they will be flying in this game. [11:09.000 –> 11:12.000] Man flutter away on switch. [11:12.000 –> 11:15.000] Ow. [11:15.000 –> 11:22.000] Let me cover the motherling game. Um, are we just going to cover like all the research like games. [11:22.000 –> 11:34.000] I feel like we’re obligated. I feel like we are, and I’m not not upset about that. I’m not either, um, a research game that I don’t feel obligated transitions on point. [11:34.000 –> 11:40.000] Parkasaurus prehistoric wonders DLC. So I think we’ve already covered Parkasaurus on the pod. [11:40.000 –> 11:55.000] So this is just a DLC and it’s out now and it just gives you 10 new animals and the animals are the American lion mammoth saber tooth mega theorem, Eastern Puma giant capybara Oh my gosh, I didn’t even goodness. [11:55.000 –> 11:57.000] They’re everywhere. [11:57.000 –> 12:01.000] Year of copy bar. [12:01.000 –> 12:04.000] Name, that’s gonna be the title of the year. [12:04.000 –> 12:07.000] Yes. [12:07.000 –> 12:16.000] Uh, short faced bear dodo direwolf and dwarf pronghorn. So they looked really dumb. [12:16.000 –> 12:21.000] I mean, not like the game did not make them dumb. [12:21.000 –> 12:24.000] They’re just dumb. [12:24.000 –> 12:31.000] As the owner of two chickens I feel like I can very much say confidently this is a dumb bird. [12:31.000 –> 12:33.000] Yeah. [12:33.000 –> 12:39.000] So yeah, if you have Parkasaurus or if you’ve been wanting a dodo and Parkasaurus. [12:39.000 –> 12:44.000] And that’s why you haven’t played it. Do it now. Good. [12:44.000 –> 12:47.000] Okay, light your frontier. [12:47.000 –> 12:55.000] Um, I, I like. Okay, I guess let’s just let’s take a look under the hood. [12:55.000 –> 12:57.000] Cody. [12:57.000 –> 13:00.000] I don’t remember games. [13:01.000 –> 13:05.000] I’m gonna record this podcast and I’m out. [13:05.000 –> 13:11.000] All that knowledge is gone. So every time there’s a news article about a game. [13:11.000 –> 13:24.000] I like the night before or right before whatever I put like these little blurbs of what they are and for this one last night I wrote Ark survival evolved but you have mech suits. [13:24.000 –> 13:29.000] I don’t really know that you’re doing your homework, because I am not. [13:29.000 –> 13:37.000] I just like to know what I’m talking about, but, um, I can’t, I’m not good at riffing I feel like when I riff and like I go rogue. [13:37.000 –> 13:45.000] I don’t know. I’m just at the stage of like, I don’t care anymore. I’m just flying by the seat of my pants. [13:45.000 –> 13:49.000] The listeners love you anyway so. [13:49.000 –> 13:56.000] Whereas my anxiety is like they will hate you. [13:56.000 –> 14:05.000] So yeah, that was my note for light your frontiers Ark survival, but you have mech suits because that’s what it looks like he’s like mech suits. [14:05.000 –> 14:10.000] And they have updated the release window for this game and it’s coming early 2024. [14:10.000 –> 14:22.000] I’m like, intrigue I kind of don’t like the first person like aspect of it and it’s weird to do so in a forum but yeah, this also gives me a slime rancher like but like steampunk vibes. [14:22.000 –> 14:32.000] And that’s also a game that I want to play so who knows maybe I will. It’s just so interesting that like, because you can use the suits to like farm instead of him remember. [14:32.000 –> 14:46.000] So it’s like, yeah, it feels like fulfills people’s Gundam desire. Exactly like I want to like have a cottagecore like vibe, but I want to shoot water out of my gun. [14:46.000 –> 14:59.000] And then if you, I don’t know if this happens in this game or not but if you if you’re watering your plants and you have your water gun. And then a baddie is coming for your crops, you can go. [14:59.000 –> 15:02.000] And then switch to your regular gun. [15:02.000 –> 15:04.000] And then you go. [15:04.000 –> 15:07.000] That’s what happens in the comic ops. [15:07.000 –> 15:11.000] Which is a stress. Well, with that sound effect. Oh my god. [15:11.000 –> 15:20.000] Well, no, but okay good. Your, your water is also your weapon. I thought it was original. [15:20.000 –> 15:29.000] The sound effect was supposed to be the water gun going back in the, in the arm and then the real gun coming out. Beautiful. I love it. It was so good. [15:29.000 –> 15:32.000] Thanks. [15:32.000 –> 15:36.000] Next up we have Mossfield origins. [15:36.000 –> 15:49.000] So quote. This is a small cozy community builder where all buildings are based on the same foundation. Take your time build a sustainable community for your residents, sustainable community for your residents in this relaxing game with no time pressure [15:49.000 –> 15:51.000] or external forces. [15:51.000 –> 15:57.000] Yeah, upgrade foundations via tech tree to redefine and refactor your space. [15:57.000 –> 16:07.000] Um, let me tell you, that’s the end quote. Let me tell you, so as someone with ADHD I need time pressure. [16:07.000 –> 16:22.000] Or else nothing’s getting done. I know I maybe that’s something we’ll talk about where we actually get into the game but yeah, I also feel that, but also at the same time, I, it’s like, like I want it but also I don’t because stress. [16:22.000 –> 16:34.000] Yeah, but I guess it depends on how they like roll it out like if it’s like starting like yes there is time pressure but I’m not stressed out about it. So, yeah, gotta do it right. [16:34.000 –> 16:37.000] It looks really cute. [16:37.000 –> 16:45.000] The animation style looks really interesting and I really like I don’t really like the sepia tones. [16:46.000 –> 16:52.000] Okay, cool. Mm hmm. Like it’s very other like worldly and. [16:52.000 –> 16:55.000] That’s true. Yeah, yeah, sorry. [16:55.000 –> 17:02.000] Are you like on like a different planet like you’re kind of looks like you’re wearing a space suit, space suit. [17:02.000 –> 17:06.000] I’m assuming that’s why it’s like a weird like different environment. [17:06.000 –> 17:09.000] It’s just a different atmosphere, I don’t know. [17:09.000 –> 17:18.000] But I can, I feel like I could probably get into this like I’m not in a very creative space right now so I don’t want to have to figure out where to put buildings. [17:18.000 –> 17:22.000] I’m very anti like creativity in my game right now. Yeah. [17:22.000 –> 17:29.000] So I could see me not wanting to play that but at the same time, I also enjoy like city building so we’ll see. Yeah. [17:29.000 –> 17:34.000] Yeah, we’ll see. I, that’ll be a you game. [17:35.000 –> 17:42.000] So the roadmap and the release date are quote unquote coming soon. Love that, love that for us. [17:42.000 –> 17:49.000] But we’ll get more information right now. One blurb from their, gosh, what is this their blog. [17:49.000 –> 17:54.000] All events Mossfield Origins, I think this is a blog. [17:54.000 –> 18:01.000] Quote one of the artistic goals of Mossfield Origins is to reflect a healthier relationship that’s possible between humans and the world we live on. [18:01.000 –> 18:06.000] Worlds. Oh, worlds. Okay, confirmed. Yikes. Okay. [18:06.000 –> 18:12.000] We live on depicting a more sustainable approach to life and our habitation. [18:12.000 –> 18:23.000] So, um, yeah, I think it. The vibe is right but I need, I need someone telling me what to do. Yeah, or else isn’t it she not getting done so. [18:23.000 –> 18:29.000] Hopefully they have a really good quest system because that. Oh, if they have achievements. Yeah, yeah, exactly. [18:29.000 –> 18:37.000] Then you have goals. Like if it’s just like go in there and like mine Minecraft and like no, no, no thank you. [18:37.000 –> 18:47.000] Every time I play Minecraft, I literally do the exact same thing and that is go down to the, well, it used to be go down to level 11 but now there’s negative levels. [18:47.000 –> 18:57.000] Oh no. So I go down to like negative 40 or something like that and I just make a strip mine and put everything in, in chests. [18:57.000 –> 19:02.000] And so they organize chests. They are organized. [19:02.000 –> 19:07.000] So everyone that’s playing with me because like I play on these, these like community servers when I do. [19:07.000 –> 19:19.000] And so that they, they can be like, oh wow look a chest that has four stacks of diamonds. Cool. And I’m just like down there with my diamond pickaxe. Just doing that. [19:19.000 –> 19:23.000] That’s all I want to do. [19:23.000 –> 19:24.000] Okay. [19:24.000 –> 19:30.000] Next, Koa and the five pirates of Mara. Speaking of Summer and Mara. [19:30.000 –> 19:35.000] I wrote that this looks like a cute slash fun puzzle platformer. [19:35.000 –> 19:48.000] I’m excited. Is that what quite. Yeah, I think that it’s by Chibi. So same world as Summer Mara is in the same universe, but they, I guess, are deciding to branch out a little bit and they’re, I don’t know, type of game, I guess. [19:48.000 –> 19:57.000] So it is definitely a like 3d platformer and it just looks so cute and like getting to play as like Koa. [19:57.000 –> 20:05.000] I will just love and I do. It’s been so long since I’ve done a platformer because I feel like I got like tired of Mario for whatever reason. [20:05.000 –> 20:13.000] So maybe this will like get me back into like wanting to do platformers because it is so cute. It looks so bright. It just looks really good. [20:13.000 –> 20:21.000] I’m excited. And I did pack it. So excited just to get it. Well, good for you because it releases on July 27. [20:21.000 –> 20:31.000] So that is when it will be available to you. Beautiful. Super awesome. Speaking, I’m going to take a small sign here. Speaking of platformers, have you played Hollow Knight? [20:31.000 –> 20:40.000] Yes. Oh, so good. I have not like, I feel like finished the story or like I’m probably like 75% of the way through. [20:40.000 –> 20:48.000] But I also like get through like various like kind of like Stardew where I’m like, OK, I kind of want to get back into this. Let me start playing it again. [20:48.000 –> 20:55.000] But yes, love, love, love Hollow Knight. When I saw the trailer for Koa, I was like, oh, it’s a platformer. [20:55.000 –> 21:02.000] And then I like had a little bit of like anxiety and I was like, I’m not ready. [21:02.000 –> 21:06.000] If it’s Hollow Knight, then definitely not ready. I don’t think it’s going to be like Hollow Knight. [21:06.000 –> 21:12.000] I don’t know. I’m just too scared of platformers in general. [21:12.000 –> 21:17.000] Hollow Knight got me and I didn’t even get that far. It gets so hard real quick. [21:18.000 –> 21:28.000] I mean, I guess I’ve I’ve beat the game, but like my partner has done like the path of pain and literally a thing. [21:28.000 –> 21:34.000] And it’s just like it’s throwing all of the bad and all of the difficulty at you. [21:34.000 –> 21:39.000] And I’m like, I’m not doing that. It just sounds like stress. I watched like people stream that. [21:40.000 –> 21:47.000] I’m like, I’m not here for that. Like, I want it so I can like 100 percent the game or 120 percent it or whatever. [21:47.000 –> 21:52.000] But also, I’m never going to beat it. And it’s so frustrating. So no, thank you. [21:52.000 –> 22:00.000] Yep. That small aside, I’m trying to think of a nope, there’s no transition. [22:00.000 –> 22:07.000] Garden Galaxy, Garden Galaxy. [22:07.000 –> 22:16.000] Yeah, you don’t do that in this game. So, quote, discover, collect and organize to create your own unique garden in this relaxing idol slash creative sandbox. [22:16.000 –> 22:20.000] And I wrote, I have no idea how to describe this game. [22:20.000 –> 22:26.000] Yeah, it gives me like match madness vibes, like those matching games. [22:26.000 –> 22:32.000] But it’s not that at all. It’s like, I mean, I guess you do kind of like put you like match. [22:32.000 –> 22:37.000] It looks like there’s something there’s like this container that you can put things into. [22:37.000 –> 22:44.000] And then it pops out a randomly generated other things. Yeah, I don’t quite understand whatever that pot is. [22:44.000 –> 22:49.000] No, but it gives me like like city builder. Yeah. Vibes just in a garden sense. [22:49.000 –> 22:56.000] And I feel like I remember playing a phone game like this. That was also an idol game for just growing flowers. [22:56.000 –> 23:02.000] And it has like the same art style and like cubes, like sections, I guess. I don’t know. [23:02.000 –> 23:11.000] But like I said, I’m very anti-creative right now. And if you don’t tell me where to put things, I’m not going to put anything. [23:11.000 –> 23:16.000] Yeah, but this is like if you really enjoy being creative and like, yeah, exactly. [23:16.000 –> 23:24.000] Like if your favorite thing about Animal Crossing New Horizons was designing your island, you’re going to love this game. [23:24.000 –> 23:31.000] Because it’s just like it’s just that it’s just that and terraforming your your own galaxy. [23:31.000 –> 23:36.000] You’re playing God in this galaxy and just building. It looks it looks really cute. [23:36.000 –> 23:41.000] I’m not going to lie, but it’s just not like this is something that I would watch someone else play. [23:41.000 –> 23:48.000] Yeah. And maybe maybe at some point when I’m not feeling so tired and so anti-creativity, I will get into this. [23:48.000 –> 23:54.000] Bev, when you’re when? I’m hoping there will be a time when I’m not tired. [23:54.000 –> 23:59.000] Yeah, no, same. So we’ll see. That’s I just have been like joking about that myself. [23:59.000 –> 24:06.000] But like, you know, when I have free time. [24:06.000 –> 24:14.000] When I’m in the not so distant future, when this is all done in October 2025. [24:14.000 –> 24:19.000] Yeah. Yes. Catch me in January 2026. [24:19.000 –> 24:25.000] Yeah. So basically this there’s a summer update to this game coming out in June. [24:25.000 –> 24:29.000] This game’s already out, so you can already play it right now. [24:29.000 –> 24:36.000] But there’s a summer update and one of the new sets like they literally just put here the preview of one of the new sets. [24:36.000 –> 24:41.000] And it’s like a little island, kind of like a beachy. [24:41.000 –> 24:48.000] I guess it’s more like a deserted island theme now that I’m looking at it because it’s got like it’s got like a message in a bottle. [24:48.000 –> 24:55.000] Oh, wow. And like palm trees and stuff. So if you already have a game, new stuff is a coming. [24:55.000 –> 25:00.000] If you do not have that game, but this sounds intriguing, new stuff will be coming soon. [25:00.000 –> 25:07.000] So dive in now. The next game is we’re getting there. [25:07.000 –> 25:13.000] Y’all steamworld build such a weird name quote in steamworld build. [25:13.000 –> 25:18.000] You must escape a dying planet by building a mining town to dig up vital long lost technology. [25:18.000 –> 25:25.000] Meet the ever growing needs of your citizens, trade resources and defend your mine from the creatures that lurk below. [25:25.000 –> 25:31.000] End quote. That is giving Factorio vibes. It is. [25:31.000 –> 25:37.000] Actually, I don’t know. It’s the one where like you crash land on a planet. [25:37.000 –> 25:47.000] I think it’s Factorio because you crash on a planet and you’re just like mining the crap out of the planet to build your your thing back up. [25:47.000 –> 25:53.000] Eventually, these like creatures come at you and you’re just like, kill them. [25:53.000 –> 25:56.000] Oh, my goodness. Yeah, it’s Factorio. [25:56.000 –> 26:00.000] But yeah, it’s giving that. But the trailer. Did you watch the trailer? [26:00.000 –> 26:07.000] I have not, but I’ve I’ve heard about this game of seed. I think we talked about it on a like previous game or game previous episode. [26:07.000 –> 26:18.000] And I am excited by it. Like, I like the premise and like I enjoy mining and this is essentially what you’re doing. [26:18.000 –> 26:23.000] So I think I would enjoy this. And this also sounds like you’re like Minecraft like life. [26:24.000 –> 26:26.000] Until you can’t anymore. [26:26.000 –> 26:34.000] Like the gameplay trailer makes it look almost like like city skylines, like you have a city that you’re managing. [26:34.000 –> 26:43.000] And then there’s also like, I guess this might be minecarts that I’m looking at in this thing, but it looks like there’s like roller coasters. [26:43.000 –> 26:46.000] So it’s like a little roller coaster tycoon. Oh, my gosh, I forgot. [26:46.000 –> 26:59.000] If you go to 24 is for you and for anyone, if you go to 24 seconds into the trailer, there’s a there’s a what is that called? [26:59.000 –> 27:04.000] A drive through theater. A drive in. [27:04.000 –> 27:15.000] And there’s like these it’s all rusty in the image on the screen just looks like a robot is like about to have a showdown in the middle of the town in front of the tavern. [27:15.000 –> 27:19.000] And like he’s got his hand on his gun and his other guys, but like all you can see is the robot’s face. [27:19.000 –> 27:23.000] That’s just like what it’s evoking. But yes, drive in theater. [27:23.000 –> 27:38.000] So like this game just has a lot. But like to me, if I was the person trying to escape the dying planet partway through this, I would be like, maybe I don’t want just leave the planet. [27:38.000 –> 27:44.000] I mean, do we want to look at the beauty of that of that drive in theater and the roller coasters? [27:44.000 –> 27:51.000] Maybe we just fix up the planet that we have. Anyway, it looks really cute. [27:51.000 –> 27:57.000] I’m excited. And the news is that there’s a new trailer. [27:57.000 –> 28:04.000] That’s the news. So I definitely watch the trailer. It’s really cute, especially 24 seconds in. [28:04.000 –> 28:10.000] Tell me, listeners, what you think is happening in that movie at that drive in. [28:10.000 –> 28:13.000] It’s definitely a Western. OK, because it feels like a Western. [28:13.000 –> 28:17.000] It’s definitely a Western with the hot and the squidty eyes. And the squidty eyes. [28:17.000 –> 28:23.000] OK, next, Menechos Night Market. [28:23.000 –> 28:28.000] That’s me trying to be really, really excited, but also not too loud. [28:28.000 –> 28:35.000] I don’t want to blow out the speaker. So Menechos Night Market, this game, I did not have to look up because I know what I’m talking about. [28:35.000 –> 28:42.000] Exactly. The news here is that it is coming to Game Pass on its release. [28:42.000 –> 28:48.000] And of course, its release is September 26th, which is like the release for a billion games. [28:48.000 –> 28:52.000] There’s like four games that we cover that are all coming out on this day. [28:52.000 –> 29:01.000] Too many games. Pick another day. I mean, they can pick another day because whatever day Menechos Night Market comes out on is going to get our attention. [29:01.000 –> 29:06.000] True. Very true. So all the other games need to step off September 26th. [29:06.000 –> 29:10.000] Yeah, I feel like I need a Game Pass, but also I know I’m just going to buy this game. [29:10.000 –> 29:20.000] So, yeah, I mean, this is good news. Like if there if if you have been thinking about Menechos Night Market and every time you hear us talking about it, you’re like, oh, my gosh, I want a game. [29:20.000 –> 29:23.000] And you have Game Pass. That means you don’t have to buy it, right? [29:23.000 –> 29:30.000] Like you don’t have to put the money down because it’ll be on the for freezies, quote unquote. [29:30.000 –> 29:35.000] I think you have to pay for a Game Pass every month. Yeah, like ten dollars a month or something like that. [29:35.000 –> 29:45.000] So it’s not terrible. It’s only ten dollars. Which is why I was like, maybe I get it for Dreamlight Ballet because I want to play this game, but I don’t want to pay twenty five dollars for a free to play game. [29:45.000 –> 29:50.000] But also, I’m still paying whatever. It’s another subscription. [29:50.000 –> 29:53.000] Nope, don’t need it. OK, don’t need it. Exactly. [29:53.000 –> 30:02.000] If there’s like a specific game that I want to try, but don’t want to commit to, like I suppose Dreamlight Ballet, then I suppose it might be worth it for only like like a month. [30:02.000 –> 30:09.000] Like I definitely would pay more than ten dollars per an entire month if I bought a game. [30:09.000 –> 30:14.000] But whatever. Well, Bev, a great time, a great time to try Game Pass would be in September. [30:14.000 –> 30:25.000] Exactly. Because then you could try you could like if you do it early September, then you could play Dreamlight Ballet until Moneko’s Night Market came out and then swap over. [30:25.000 –> 30:31.000] Love that. That’s good planning, too. Maybe I will do that. [30:31.000 –> 30:36.000] Because I can plan for ten dollars in September. Right. Right. Yeah. [30:36.000 –> 30:42.000] I can do that. I also think that farming simulators on Game Pass. Oh, no. [30:42.000 –> 30:49.000] And I need to be playing that. Spoiler alert for future episodes. [30:49.000 –> 30:56.000] Spirit tea. Just going to transition very poorly. [30:56.000 –> 31:05.000] Spirit tea. So this is a quote from Al. Beta slash alpha slash meh. [31:05.000 –> 31:13.000] Out on Wednesday. So I believe that that means that it’s like Wednesday, like the day after the podcast comes out or the day of that. [31:13.000 –> 31:21.000] That’s unclear, Al. You put dates in the show notes. Wow. We’re just coming out all over the place because he then wrote might include all content. [31:21.000 –> 31:34.000] All content might not. Who even knows? And then I tried to click on the link and I sassily wrote would love to be able to read the update, but it’s only viewable by backers, Al. [31:34.000 –> 31:42.000] And that was where I was going to leave it. But y’all, he actually I didn’t like tag him or anything. He just looked at my notes and then he left. [31:42.000 –> 31:51.000] Yeah, he saw. Yeah. So he commented on that. What did he say? Not sure why I’m being blamed for this. Yeah. [31:51.000 –> 32:03.000] And then he took screenshots. Just copy paste the whole thing in here next time, Al. I mean, no, I wanted to give him crap. And then he ruined it. [32:03.000 –> 32:12.000] You still gave him crap. And then he gave you crap back. Yeah, it’s true. We do be ribbing each other. You’re like poking fun at each other. [32:12.000 –> 32:21.000] So, yeah, he said, let’s see, this says because this is I didn’t look at this last night. It wasn’t available to me. [32:21.000 –> 32:28.000] The developer says I’ve just finished a few of the crucial items and now we’re pretty much ready to start the public beta. [32:28.000 –> 32:36.000] Oh, I was about to say what is a public beta? And wouldn’t you know it? The next sentence. What is the public beta? Thank you. [32:36.000 –> 32:43.000] It’s essentially a chance to play the game early. I believe the beta will contain only the first two seasons of your first year in the town. [32:43.000 –> 32:50.000] However, there’s been talk of potential access to the full game as well. How do you not know? How do you? Yeah. [32:50.000 –> 32:54.000] So maybe it is. It’s not like the plan. [32:54.000 –> 32:58.000] I believe maybe maybe they just don’t have a lot of confidence. [32:58.000 –> 33:05.000] I also I also start with like I I think before things that I know for a fact, so it might just be like a confidence thing. [33:05.000 –> 33:13.000] So I hope that they will know what the beta contains and will maybe just plan to change it later with full access. [33:13.000 –> 33:19.000] I don’t know. Maybe it’ll be like a surprise, like a special surprise of like, oh, you get more. [33:19.000 –> 33:25.000] And you get a full game and you get a full game. [33:25.000 –> 33:31.000] Sorry, I’m tired. Yeah. And then there’s a secret. [33:31.000 –> 33:37.000] The next the next two paragraphs end up saying, oh, and please keep this to yourself. [33:37.000 –> 33:42.000] So I’m not going to say that. But Spirit Tea is done. So this is what they say. [33:42.000 –> 33:47.000] Anyways, the game is done, but the polishing isn’t done. So, yeah. [33:47.000 –> 33:52.000] Well, the secret is that, nope, that they’re announcing the beta for something else. [33:52.000 –> 33:56.000] That’s a secret. That’s for something else. Oh, is it? I can’t read. [33:56.000 –> 34:01.000] It’s too early. A secret. OK, I don’t know who that was. [34:01.000 –> 34:06.000] I just assumed it was the same person. No, I think they’re talking about two games here. [34:06.000 –> 34:11.000] Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. That’s that’s not clear at all. [34:11.000 –> 34:14.000] This dev needs to make that clear. This is a new game we’re talking about. [34:14.000 –> 34:21.000] This is also it’s just so unclear. I mean, like Dan, Dan, Dan. [34:21.000 –> 34:28.000] Thank you for staying for like communicating to people and like having these, you know, semi regular updates. [34:28.000 –> 34:32.000] But also, this is not clear. No, Dan’s probably also overworked. [34:32.000 –> 34:36.000] They’re probably submit this up, like in the middle of the night, like, oh, it’s out. [34:36.000 –> 34:41.000] OK, I’m done. Good night. Oh, my gosh. Dan is about to have a new baby. [34:41.000 –> 34:44.000] Oh, yeah. That’s why Dan is so tired. That makes sense. [34:44.000 –> 34:48.000] All is forgiven, Dan. Enjoy your baby. [34:48.000 –> 34:54.000] We will enjoy the game whenever she is 1.0, not this public beta. [34:54.000 –> 34:59.000] I’m super excited. OK, cool. [34:59.000 –> 35:04.000] Next. Only three more. OK, Spirit Tea. [35:04.000 –> 35:08.000] No, I already did that. Sprout Valley. [35:08.000 –> 35:11.000] It’s another Kickstarter, so valid. Oh, my gosh. [35:11.000 –> 35:18.000] OK. Oh, what? My laptop or my computer was doing some weird things. [35:18.000 –> 35:25.000] Sprout Valley, quote, a simple casual game. What a simple. [35:25.000 –> 35:28.000] A simple casual game about harvesting and gathering resources. That’s legit. [35:28.000 –> 35:33.000] Like that is what they that’s what the Kickstarter says. [35:33.000 –> 35:37.000] Oh, we’ve talked about this because it’s what the 1.0 is out now. [35:37.000 –> 35:44.000] And then Al says, although not sure what this means, because apparently it is releasing in July and this version is 1.0 of the demo. [35:44.000 –> 35:51.000] Or I’m very confused. And by I’m I mean, Al is very confused, but I’m also very confused. [35:51.000 –> 36:00.000] 1.0, but like still in beta. So like still then it’s not 1.0 Bev. [36:01.000 –> 36:06.000] I don’t know. I could see them be like, this is 1.0 and we expect to have bugs. [36:06.000 –> 36:11.000] So 1.6 will be actually the full release. I don’t know. I don’t understand. [36:11.000 –> 36:18.000] They need a standard. The industry needs to standardize this whole process because it’s ridiculous. [36:18.000 –> 36:24.000] It looks like it. So you can play this on itch.io. [36:24.000 –> 36:29.000] But they have a Switch version in the process. They just have to get it approved by Nintendo, [36:29.000 –> 36:34.000] which a shout out to Elle from Apico. [36:34.000 –> 36:39.000] I now have kind of an insider’s view into like how this stuff happens. [36:39.000 –> 36:51.000] Awesome. And they can they can take a long time and then slap you with the ESRB rating because you have meat in your game. [36:53.000 –> 36:55.000] Because you have meat in your game? [36:55.000 –> 37:00.000] Oh my gosh. So Apico, they have meat. Well, it’s Apicola. [37:00.000 –> 37:03.000] It was mead because you’re making mead. Yeah. [37:03.000 –> 37:08.000] And they didn’t call it mead. I think they did at first. Oh, maybe they didn’t. [37:08.000 –> 37:13.000] I don’t remember. But it was it’s very clearly you’re brewing. [37:13.000 –> 37:20.000] You put honey into a brewing thing. And then if you don’t understand the brewing process of me, then maybe don’t. [37:20.000 –> 37:23.000] But the ESRB was like you are gratified. [37:23.000 –> 37:31.000] You’re like showing alcohol in a positive light because you get these like powers from drinking this alcohol. [37:31.000 –> 37:38.000] And so they like slapped him with a mature rating. Apico, Apico with a mature rating. Ridiculous. [37:38.000 –> 37:42.000] So, yeah, that’s that’s just I don’t think that was Nintendo. That was the ESRB. [37:42.000 –> 37:48.000] So like Sprout or not. Yeah. Sprout Valley. Take your time getting the Switch version out. We get it. [37:49.000 –> 37:56.000] We get it. Also, did you hear? OK, sorry. Future versions of Sprout Valley to come on the Apico train. [37:56.000 –> 38:03.000] Did you hear that there was a bug that was because of me? What? No. [38:03.000 –> 38:11.000] It like made people’s game crash. Just like your existence in the game was just like so magical. [38:11.000 –> 38:14.000] There was something. Gosh, I don’t even remember. [38:14.000 –> 38:19.000] I so I was like talking to Elle. I’m going to pull up my my chat with Elle. [38:19.000 –> 38:28.000] He just one day reached out to me and he was like, I need you to know that you’ve caused me such a headache on Switch because there’s a crash that happens only after people speak to you. [38:31.000 –> 38:37.000] It was called like the Cody crash or the solitary bee crash, but he called it the Cody crash and I retweeted it. [38:37.000 –> 38:42.000] I was like, where do I put on my CV that my bee knowledge crashed a video game? [38:46.000 –> 38:55.000] In your fun notes, more information about me that’s not relevant to my experience, but it’s fun to know. [38:55.000 –> 39:01.000] The knowledge in my brain about bees makes people’s games crash. OK. Amazing. [39:01.000 –> 39:05.000] That definitely should go on your CV, please. Oh, we’ve had so many side notes. [39:05.000 –> 39:09.000] I mean, that’s an accomplishment all by itself. The fact that you’re in a bee game, just saying. [39:09.000 –> 39:15.000] Yeah, that was that was a weird a weird what a crazy random happenstance. [39:15.000 –> 39:21.000] I’m pretty sure it has to do with this podcast because like Elle listened to this podcast and met me from from here. [39:21.000 –> 39:26.000] And then he asked me for like a knowledge. [39:26.000 –> 39:30.000] Yeah, bee knowledge. I was going to say advice and I was like, that was what it was. [39:30.000 –> 39:40.000] It was like bee knowledge. And then at near the end of like me giving him bee knowledge, like once a month or whatever it was, like very, very infrequently. [39:40.000 –> 39:45.000] He was just like, oh, also, I’m putting you in the game. And I was like, what? Love it. [39:45.000 –> 39:52.000] Love it. OK. That needs to go to your CV. I feel like if I could say I’m the co-founder of a Quage team, I feel like you need it. [39:53.000 –> 39:58.000] But you’re you’re in a bee game. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, for sure. [39:58.000 –> 40:08.000] OK. Oh, what am I? I am messing things up on this. OK. 33 Immortals. [40:08.000 –> 40:14.000] So my here’s my quote here. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. [40:14.000 –> 40:22.000] And then I quote 33 Immortals. Yeah. 33 Immortals is a co-op action roguelike for 33 players. [40:22.000 –> 40:26.000] Pick up Thunder Lotus. Yeah. Yeah. Spiritfarer. [40:26.000 –> 40:33.000] Yeah. The people who made Spiritfarer. Pick up and raid, cooperate to survive hordes of monsters and rise above the Almighty. [40:33.000 –> 40:37.000] Yeah. So this is made by Thunder Lotus is the people who made Spiritfarer. [40:37.000 –> 40:42.000] Al, this link is not helpful. I need to know what this game is. [40:42.000 –> 40:51.000] I think it’s like newly announced. So it’s it makes sense that the link is not helpful because that’s all there is. [40:51.000 –> 40:59.000] And oh, oh, it kind of looks like like to me, it looks like Diablo, maybe. [40:59.000 –> 41:05.000] I don’t know. I’m getting like Hades vibes as well. OK, I’ve not played Hades, so it’s so good. [41:05.000 –> 41:11.000] But yeah, I mean, you don’t have to have 33 people, but you can. [41:11.000 –> 41:16.000] That sounds amazing. And I kind of want the chaos of 33 people. [41:16.000 –> 41:21.000] It’s going to remind me of my World of Warcraft 40 man days. [41:21.000 –> 41:26.000] The horror of trying to keep all those chickens in a row. [41:26.000 –> 41:34.000] Uh huh. But yeah, you you can you like dungeon crawl and you are like fighting things. [41:34.000 –> 41:39.000] And this is like an MMO without actually being an MMO. It looks really good. [41:39.000 –> 41:44.000] Yeah, it looks really good. And of course, Spiritfarer people. So Spiritfarer and like the art. [41:44.000 –> 41:51.000] We know the animations like fantastic. We know the art’s fantastic. So I’m very excited to hear about this. [41:51.000 –> 41:59.000] Yeah. And I just hope it’s kind of like a monster hunter, like like waiting room where you could just join random groups. [41:59.000 –> 42:09.000] Yeah, I don’t know. 33 players

In this week's episode we discussed music. Jason read a great quote from Confucius saying: “If one should desire to know whether a kingdom is well governed, if its morals are good or bad, the quality of its music will furnish the answer.” and that statement really resonates with me. In fact that's a large part of what we talked about in this one. Music and emotions, and how it all can influence you.Our Links:RetrospectReasoning Through the BibleReasoning Through the Bible is an expository style walk through the BibleListen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

Priscilla Chapman, Leslie Faulkner and Mary Beth Hollett with Furnish for Good return to “At Home with Roby”.  Founded in 2019, Furnish for Good connects well-loved home furnishings to underserved communities through an experience of empowerment. Rather than simply donating the items, Furnish for Good curates and showcases them so that recipients can select their own pieces and shop with dignity.  Tune in to learn more about Furnish for Good's growth over the last 4 years, their new 10,000 sq ft facility, and how you can support their mission by donating gently used furnishings or your dollars.  They also share details about their annual “Furnished” fundraiser that they host each fall with the help of 10 local interior designers.  Plans are officially underway for this year's event scheduled for November 1st – 4th.     https://furnishforgood.org/    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On Nov 15th and 16th, 2022, The Origins Project Foundation hosted their first public events in North America at the beautiful Orpheum Theater in Phoenix, AZ (we had hosted an event in Iceland in September during our Greenland-Iceland Travel Adventure). There was no better way to begin this new series than with a dialogue onstage with Richard Dawkins, and that was the substance of our first night's event. As all those who have followed us will know, Richard and I have done many dialogues together, onstage and online, and so it was important that this dialogue be new and different. Richard had just published a new book entitled “Books do Furnish a Life”, which is a compilation of essays he had written about other scientists and writers, and also transcripts of dialogues he had had with numerous people, including me. I decided this new book would provide a wonderful opportunity to jump off in new directions, and it turned out to be just that. The response from the audience and from those who had seen many of our previous dialogues was very positive, and we came off stage feeling like it was one of the best public conversations we have had. I hope those of you who watch it, or listen to it, here will agree. Following our 90 minute dialogue onstage we asked for questions from the audience, and after an intermission, we answered many of these. This Q&A will be offered as an exclusive post for Critical Mass paid subscribers, to thank you for your support of our efforts. It will remain behind the Critical Mass paywall for 1 month, and then will be released to the general public. I hope all of you enjoy this conversation, and Richard's remarkable enthusiasm about science and writing, and his insights about the world. In a future post, we will release the video record of the second night's conversation, a panel discussion with leading physicists about the current state of cosmology. Finally, later this month we will open our newest travel adventure, a trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos Island, for booking for the general public. Critical Mass subscribers will have an advance opportunity to book one of the 36 berths on this voyage. Stay tuned.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers. Your subscriptions support the non-profit Origins Project Foundation, which produces the podcast. The audio version is available free on the Critical Mass site and on all podcast sites, and the video version will also be available on the Origins Project Youtube channel as well.

Just three short years after furnishing home number one, the Central Oregon non-profit, Furnish Hope, recently furnished home #1000.  Furnish Hope, whose mission is to Furnish empty houses for those in need, was established in 2019 by long time Central Oregon resident Megan Martin.  On episode 31 of The Circling Podcast, Megan shares the vision of Furnish Hope, a vision where marginalized families in our community have a place to call home by transforming empty houses into warm, welcoming homes for those in need of furniture and household essentials.  Recently Furnish Hope opened a new retail boutique in the Old Iron Works Art District in Bend. Through the resale of community donated upscale home furnishings and décor, this brick-and-mortar storefront aides in supporting the mission and is proving to be a unique way for Furnish Hope recipients to choose the finishing touches for their homes. Thanks Megan. Thank you for taking the time to share your story and the story of Furnish Hope. To say the work that you and your team are doing is changing lives, well, that would be an understatement. www.furnishhope.com Support The Circling Podcast:Email us at: thecirclingpodcast@gmail.comJoin the Circling membership: patreon.com/Thecirclingpodcast Visual Show Notes: https://nota.fm/thecirclingFollow us on Instagram @thecirclingpodcastCover Art: petealport.com Remember, the health of our community, relies on us!
