Let's be honest...Every gamer has at least one habit they'll never admit to.You tell yourself, "One more quest," then suddenly it's 2 AM.

And somehow, every waterfall still deserves to be checked... just in case.In Episode 103 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee confess the hilarious gaming habits we've all developed over the years. From loot goblins and side quest addicts to backlog collectors and rage quitters, nothing is off limits.Whether you're a casual gamer or someone with hundreds of games in your library, chances are you're guilty of more than one of these.So be honest...How many of these gaming crimes have you committed?

Fresh back from Brussels: Sierra just competed at the World Brewers Cup 2026, and in this episode she sits down with Ingo to watch her own routine together — pausing along the way to unpack the details behind every pour.From a brand-new vacuum degassing tool to a strict 10-minute clock that punishes every second over the limit, this is a behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to compete on coffee's biggest stage.In this conversation:
What makes something overrated?Is it actually bad, or did the internet just hype it up too much?In Episode 102 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Azzilee and Geisha have a fun, opinion-filled conversation about the games, shows, movies, food, restaurants, trends, hobbies, and content creators people love, hate, defend, and argue about for no reason.We talk about overrated games people swear are perfect, underrated games that deserved more love, shows and movies that get overhyped, restaurants that do not always live up to the hype, trends we do not understand, hobbies that got way too expensive, and content creators people either love or think are doing way too much.But this episode is not just about hating on popular stuff.Sometimes something is overrated. Sometimes something is underrated. And sometimes it is just not for us.That last part matters.Not every game you dislike is trash. Not every show you cannot get into is bad. Not every restaurant people love is automatically amazing. Not every hobby needs to become a lifestyle or a side hustle.Sometimes the hype gets too loud. Sometimes the timing is wrong. Sometimes nostalgia changes how people see things. And sometimes taste is just personal.So we're asking the big question:Is it overrated, underrated, or just not for us?Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhere:Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles

Tento podcast vznikol úplne spontánne – sadli sme si v Paname nad výbornú kávu z odrody Geisha a uvedomili sme si, že Panama je proste cool a že vám to chceme povedať. Nahral som ho s Wilderom, Buggiem a Peťom, ktorý tu robí akéhosi privátneho, čiže paralelného česko-slovenského veľvyslanca. Väčšina ľudí pozná Panamu len cez Panama Papers a slovo daňový raj. Lenže to najzaujímavejšie na presune do inej krajiny je práve to, čo sa veľmi ťažko podáva ďalej: že to nie je „to isté, len iným jazykom a inými peniazmi“. Je to úplne iný operačný systém kultúry – a presne ten „diff“ medzi Strednou Európou a Panamou je témou celého rozhovoru. Preto je tento diel možno aj pre tých, ktorých Panama sama o sebe vôbec neláka. Bavíme sa o panamskom vnímaní času (na stretnutie nikto nepríde načas a nikoho to nestresuje), o tom, prečo je tu úroveň stresu výrazne nižšia ako v polarizovanom Slovensku, o boome infraštruktúry (metro, diaľnice, tretí most cez kanál, vlak do Davidu) a o Paname ako hube Strednej Ameriky. Vysvetlíme, prečo je tunajšie bankovníctvo paradoxne jedno z najregulovanejších na svete a prečo je Panama skôr skvelé miesto na život než daňový raj. Prejdeme slobodu – ekonomickú aj osobnú, bez cenzúry internetu –, panamský štýl jazdenia, Boquete a El Valle de Antón, kávové plantáže pod sopkou Volcán Barú, cyklistickú kultúru v tropickej krajine, miestnu kuchyňu (ceviche, corvina, patacones, chicharrón, arroz con pollo… a churros ako najťažšiu drogu Latinskej Ameriky), ostrovy San Blas a indiánov Guna, čierneho Ježiša, aj dresscode na úradoch. A nakoniec to najdôležitejšie – čo Panama dala každému z nás. Vopred sa ospravedlňujem za trošku zníženú kvalitu zvuku; nahrávali sme mikrofónmi, ktoré boli po ruke, a zvukové stopy som potom zachraňoval pomocou AI.

Episode 100 is here.For this milestone episode of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel and Geisha dive into one of gaming's most iconic franchises: God of War.From the brutal Greek era to the emotional Norse saga, God of War has evolved from a series built on rage, revenge, and chaos into one about grief, fatherhood, legacy, and whether someone like Kratos can actually become better.We talk about why Kratos became one of gaming's most recognizable characters, how the 2018 reboot changed everything, why Ragnarok pushed his story even further, and why Geisha connects with the series as a fan.Then we get into the current conversation around God of War: Laufey, the newly revealed PS5 entry focused on Faye/Laufey, Kratos' wife and Atreus' mother. PlayStation's official reveal describes Faye waking in the Everywhen, the afterlife of the gods, and fighting to protect the plans she left behind for Kratos and Atreus. Deborah Ann Woll is also returning as Faye, with no release date confirmed yet. And of course, we talk about the backlash.Is a Faye-focused God of War a bold new chapter? Is it a risk? Or is the internet doing what it always does and turning change into ragebait before the game even releases?This episode is about God of War's legacy, its evolution, and why fans fear change in the franchises they love most.Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhere:Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles

Every Soulsborne fan has an answer.Some say Dark Souls has the best world. Some say Bloodborne has the best atmosphere. Some say Elden Ring is the best overall package. And somewhere out there, a Dark Souls II defender is already preparing a full argument.In Episode 98 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee dive into one of gaming's most passionate debates: which Soulsborne game is actually the best?We go from Demon's Souls to Dark Souls, Dark Souls II, Dark Souls III, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring, breaking down what each game does best and why fans still argue about them years later.This episode covers the blueprint that started it all, the world design that changed gaming, the most divisive entry in the series, the polished finale, the gothic nightmare fans still beg to see remastered, and the open-world giant that brought Soulsborne to the mainstream.We also talk about what really matters in these games: bosses, builds, lore, world design, atmosphere, combat feel, replayability, and that unforgettable moment when the game finally clicks.So what deserves the crown?Is it Bloodborne for the vibe? Dark Souls for the world? Dark Souls III for the bosses? Or Elden Ring for the full package?Let the debate begin.Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles

Mother's Day got us thinking about something bigger than just games.A lot of our gaming memories are tied to the people around us. The person who bought us our first game. The person who told us to turn it off. The person who didn't understand what we were playing, but still supported it because they knew it mattered to us.In Episode 97 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee talk about moms, gaming memories, family, and the games that felt like home.We talk about the funny moments every gamer remembers, like being asked if you can pause an online game, moms calling every console “the Nintendo,” and being told dinner was ready at the worst possible time.We also dig into the warmer side of gaming: the moms who supported the hobby, comfort games that remind us of home, iconic mother figures in games, family stories that hit harder as adults, and what gaming memories we're creating now.With Geisha being a mom, this episode feels a little more personal. It's about looking back at the games that shaped us, while also thinking about the memories being made for the next generation.This one is warm, funny, nostalgic, and all about why gaming is rarely just about the game.Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles
Forgive me this is episode 96 not 95, I gave Geisha the wrong information.Anyways...The d4vd case is one of the most shocking stories being reported right now, but it is also an active case, which means the details need to be handled carefully.David Anthony Burke, known professionally as d4vd, has been charged in connection with the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez. Prosecutors allege Celeste was killed in April 2025 and that her remains were later found in a Tesla connected to Burke. Burke has pleaded not guilty, and the allegations have not been proven in court.In Episode 96 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel walks Geisha and Azzilee through the case from the beginning, focusing on what is being reported, what prosecutors are alleging, what has been confirmed so far, and what still has to be proven.We talk about who d4vd was before this case, who Celeste Rivas Hernandez was, the timeline prosecutors have laid out, the discovery that brought national attention, the charges, the evidence prosecutors say they have, and why this story has become such a massive topic online.This episode is not about internet rumors or treating an active case like entertainment.It is about slowing down, separating confirmed reporting from allegations, and remembering that at the center of this case is a 14-year-old girl whose life ended far too soon.Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles
In this episode, I am back in Santa Bárbara, Honduras, to sit down with Benjamín Paz. Benjamín is a key collaborator in our Biofilia Project, an initiative focused on improving coffee production through biological techniques that restore the natural balance of the environment. We discuss Benjamín's decision to transition his entire farm to the Biofilia system, moving away from the traditional reliance on synthetic NPK fertilizers and fungicides. This shift was inspired by the need for long-term sustainability and the success of similar regenerative practices seen in other world-class farms. Benjamín shares the early results of this transition, noting that while some sun-exposed varieties have struggled with coffee leaf rust, others like Parainema and Geisha have shown incredible resilience and immediate improvements in cup quality. We emphasize that this is a holistic process requiring a "mental shift" and the reintroduction of shade trees to protect the plants and soil. Looking ahead, the goal is to replicate these results across more farms in the region. Benjamín is planning to host workshops for other producers to demonstrate how reducing chemical dependency can lower production costs and secure the future of Honduran coffee.

Card collecting is everywhere again… but it doesn't feel the same as it used to.What started as trading cards on the playground has turned into something much bigger. From Pokémon cards to Magic: The Gathering, people are opening packs, chasing rare pulls, grading cards, and even treating them like investments.In Episode 95 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee talk about why card collecting is blowing up again, what's driving the hype, and whether this is still just a hobby… or something closer to a new kind of currency.We break down the excitement of opening packs, the influence of social media, the role of money in collecting, and why so many people are getting pulled into this without even planning to.Is this about nostalgia… or something deeper?And is this trend here to stay?Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChronicles
It always starts the same way.“I'll just play for an hour.”And then suddenly… it's way later than it should be.In Episode 94 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee talk about the games that didn't just hook us… they took over our lives.The ones where you lose track of time, think about them when you're not playing, and keep saying “one more thing” until your whole night is gone.From cozy games that slowly pull you in to grind-heavy games that keep you chasing progress, we break down why certain games are impossible to put down.What makes a game take over your time?And why do we actually love that feeling?Follow Co-op Chronicles everywhereSpotify https://open.spotify.com/show/5SdKUmrjtUOB5y32Nd3gFeApple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/co-op-chronicles/id1745794642YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Co-op-ChroniclesInstagram https://www.instagram.com/co_op_chroniclesTikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@co_op_chroniclesLinktree https://linktr.ee/CoOpChroniclesKeep grinding those levels, finishing those side quests, until next time.Hashtags#GamingPodcast #Gamers #AddictedToGames #GamingLife #CoOpChronicles #GamingDiscussion #VideoGames #GamerLife #GamingMoments #OneMoreGameSupport the show

Hey Heinous fans, thank you for your listenership and support through our latest season of Heinous. The team is taking a break to retool and recharge so that we can come back with even more new heinous cases. But in the meantime, we will be releasing full versions of some our most popular stories to tide you over. // In 1936, businessman Kichizo Ishida stepped into a discreet hotel in Tokyo to meet with his lover, Sada Abe. It had become routine for Ishida in the recent months, him putting aside his duties and responsibilities for days on end to indulge in the affair. But his sins would eventually catch up to him when he failed to leave the hotel; with the name of his lover ominously etched onto his skin. Part 1 - We follow the background of the mysterious Sada Abe, and the journey that led her into her fateful encounter with Kichizo Ishida. Part 2 - We explore the fallout following Abe's brutal crime, and how she was eventually put to justice. FYI we have just started a YouTube channel where you can watch these Heinous stories:https://www.youtube.com/@GrimAsia_1UpMedia Join your fellow Heinous fans and interact with the team at our website or through our socials (IG, TikTok) @heinous_1upmedia. - Love Heinous?

In this episode, I travel to the top of the Tecapa volcano in El Salvador to sit down with Diego Baraona, a fifth-generation coffee producer and the owner of Los Pirineos farm. Diego took over the family business in 2020 after his father passed away and he has since become a vital partner in our mission to produce more resilient and mindful coffee. In our conversation, we focus on the progress of the TW Biological Project, an initiative we launched together in 2023 with the goal of transitioning his farming practices toward a regenerative model over a ten-year period. Diego explains how he has managed to drastically reduce his reliance on chemical fertilizers and herbicides, cutting his annual input costs from nearly $100,000 down to just $12,000. This was achieved by building aerobic bioreactors to grow beneficial microorganisms and fungi, such as mycorrhizae, to restore the natural biology of the soil. We discuss the critical role of shade trees, the use of traditional varieties like Pacamara and Bourbon, and his recent experimentation with new genetics like Geisha from Malawi and Arara from Brazil. Beyond the technical information, Diego reflects on the shift in mindset required to be a modern producer: having the patience to let the ecosystem heal and the desire to create a farm that is not only a source of high-quality coffee, but a thriving home for local biodiversity. His optimism after seeing the first visual improvements on the farm is a promising sign that the path toward regenerative agriculture is the right one for the future of specialty coffee.

Dr. Katherine Milano claims to have served in a German “4th Reich” secret space program called the Dark Fleet during a “20 and back” program where she underwent 20 years of torture, MK Ultra mind programing, and exploitation as a Geisha spy on Mars and Ceres. She was finally promoted to a senior position in the Dark Fleet's intelligence service before being identified as a spy for the Ashtar Command and severely punished via mutilation before being sent back to Mars. In her second interview on Exopolitics Today, Dr. Milano gives an update on recent events involving the 4th Reich's collapse and emergence of an enlightened German faction called the 5th Reich. She describes how senior 4th Reich officers are being arrested and tried for their crimes and removed from all positions of authority. Dr. Milano further describes what is currently happening on Saturn, and her own past life memories as a member of the Anunnaki royal family involved in the genetic engineering of humanity.

Buying games used to feel simple. You saw the price, you bought the game, and that was it.Now every release seems to have multiple editions, early access, subscriptions, bundles, and store differences that make the whole process feel more complicated than it should be.In Episode 91 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee talk about the growing frustration around game pricing, deluxe editions, subscriptions, and the recent conversations about dynamic pricing on PlayStation.Are games actually getting too expensive, or does it just feel that way because the system around buying them has changed?We talk about how modern game stores work, why players react so strongly to pricing changes, and why the feeling of fairness matters just as much as the price itself.This is not a rant about gaming.

UNIK KVELD MED MERETE17. mars - Vinkurs på Via i Vika med Merete Bø - Chardonnay fra hele verden - Klikk her for billettTips til god kaffe fra Tim Wendelboe:1. Kjøp bedre kaffe - helst hele bønner fra lokale små brennerier. Jo mer informasjon på posen om opprinnelse, kultivar, etc jo bedre. Finn gjerne et brenneri som har en brennestil du liker, snakk med de som jobber der og prøv deg frem. Husk at kaffe er ferskvare, så se etter brenningsdato på posen og sørg for at posene er forseglet når du kjøper kaffe. Som regel smaker kaffen best innen 4-6 uker etter brenning, men den bør helst hvile minst en uke ette brenning. Husk også at vannet må ikke ha for mye kalk. Stort sett er vannet i Norge bra til kaffebrygging men har du mye kalkdannelse i vannkokeren din eller i dusjen, så bør du vurdere et vannfilter som fjerner kalk.2. Skaff deg en god kaffekvern som kan fininstilles. De koster nok mer enn 1000 kr. Men varer lenge og gir mye mere smak ettersom mye av aromaene forsvinner fort etter kverning og kaffen oksiderer raskere etter kverning. Man må også kunne stille inn kvernen etter hvordan man skal brygge og lager man filterkaffe må man kverne grovere desto mer man brygger av gangen.3. Bruk riktig dosering. 60-65 gram per liter til filterkaffe og 65 - 70 gram per liter til presskanne. Bruk helst en digital vekt for å veie både kaffe og vann så blir det likt hver gang.4. Finn en bryggemetode som passer din hverdag og hold deg til den. Sørg for at utstyret alltid er rent.5. Det finnes så mye ulike smaker, utstyr, etc. så her er det bare å prøve seg fram og kanskje sjekke ut en bryggevideo eller to på YouTube. Min favoritt influenser på Youtube er James Hoffmann. Det er en god ressurs for det meste som omhandler kaffe og brygging. Kaffen vi smakte på i episodenFinca el Puente fra Xinacla, la Paz, Honduras. Geisha kultivar / sort. Smaker mandarin, sjasmin, honning.Finca el Puente GeishaDen andre kaffen:(UTSOLGT!) Finca Nacimiento fra el Cielito, Santa Barbara, Honduras. SL28 kultivar / sort som er mest dyrket i Kenya og er kjent for sine intense solbær, bjørnebær, nype og florale smaker. Produsert av JObneel Caceres Dios. Frø plantet jeg selv sammen med han. Dessverer hadde vi lite av denne og den er utsolgt, men vi får forhåpentligvis litt mer om 2 år ettersom han nylig rennoverte denne farmen. Det gjør man ved å kappe ned kaffe trærene slik at de vokser opp igjen. Det tar ca 2 år før de er produktive igjen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Transit's future is all about people.In this episode of Transit Unplugged, host Paul Comfort talks with Geisha Ester, Executive Director of the National Transit Institute (NTI) at Rutgers University, about why workforce development has become the industry's most important investment — and how agencies and professionals can take advantage of it right now.NTI, funded by the Federal Transit Administration, delivers no-cost training for transit professionals across the United States, helping agencies upskill their teams, strengthen succession planning, and prepare for a rapidly changing mobility landscape.Geisha shares:How you and your staff can access free, high-impact NTI coursesThe most in-demand training areas, including procurement, service planning, safety, and leadershipHow agencies are using NTI as a real succession-planning toolThree ways to partner with NTI — as a participant, host agency, or instructorWhy workforce development is central to the industry's futureShe also tells her remarkable second-generation transit story, from high-school intern and rail conductor at Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) to Vice President of Training and Workforce Development — and now national leadership at NTI — and offers practical advice for emerging professionals and women pursuing leadership roles in transit.
At some point, true crime stopped being something we watched…And became something we tried to solve.In Episode 88 of Co-op Chronicles, Blacklabel, Geisha, and Azzilee explore the rise of online sleuth culture, from Reddit detectives and TikTok investigators to real cases where the internet helped track criminals… and others where it caused real harm.We break down how digital communities identified Luka Magnotta, the devastating misidentification of Sunil Tripathi after the Boston Marathon bombing, and the viral frenzy surrounding Gabby Petito and Bryan Kohberger.But this episode isn't just about cases.It's about psychology.Why are we so drawn to solving crimes online? When does awareness turn into interference? And as AI and social media grow more powerful… where should the line be?This is a thoughtful, balanced conversation about digital justice, responsibility, and the uncomfortable space between curiosity and harm.If you've ever followed a viral case in real time... this episode is for you.

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

We are headed to Japan for Dan's first story about a supposedly haunted - or maybe possessed - doll in Japan: Okiku. It's very unsettling! Then we head to a no name college town for thee anonymous story of a college student who got a lot more than he bargained for while shopping for furniture on Facebook Marketplace. Lynze shares a sad and interesting tale about a young boys interaction with something not of our world.
