Send a textIn this episode, I sit down with Thomas Liu, an entrepreneur whose story includes the messy parts people usually skip. He talks openly about growing up bouncing between schools, dealing with bullying and identity struggles, and how he made wrong turns that eventually forced him to look in the mirror and decide who he wanted to become.Thomas walks me through the shift from chaos to clarity and what it looked like to scrape through graduation, put himself through college, and start building something real. Alongside his wife Jasmine, he launched his first boba business, BYOB A Boba Co., while still in school, and he shares the pressure and purpose behind betting on yourself before you feel ready.We also get into the businesses that followed, including Loose Leaf, And Broth, and Gold Banh, and why storytelling, culture, and real ingredients matter to him. Thomas breaks down how his brands evolved and how he thinks about building a team, building a product, and building a reputation in a crowded space.Now as a husband and father of two, Thomas reflects on accountability and what it means to show up differently, not just for business, but for family and self respect. This conversation is about growth, ownership, and staying real about the journey.________________Music CreditsIntroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OGStingerScarlet Fire (Sting), Otis McDonald, YouTube Audio LibraryOutroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OG__________________My SGV Podcast:Website: www.mysgv.netNewsletter: Beyond the MicPatreon: MySGV Podcastinfo@sgvmasterkey.com

In this episode of DTC Pod, Nicolas Beaupré illuminates the strategies that propelled Mateina's growth in the North American market, where the lure of yerba mate was still largely undiscovered. He emphasizes the crucial role of grassroots efforts like word-of-mouth endorsements and community events in building a loyal customer base. Nicolas shares his journey of self-funding, supplemented later by keen investors, which allowed the brand to foster a robust direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales model. In developing Mateina's signature non-carbonated yerba mate beverage, he underscores the meticulous year-and-a-half-long process of trial and error with suppliers to fine-tune the recipe. Moving into the future, Nicolas envisions continuing to innovate and potentially expand Mateina's retail footprint.Episode brought to you by More StaffingJoin 15k founders and marketers & get our pod highlights delivered directly to your inbox with the DTC Pod Newsletter!On this episode of DTC Pod, we cover:1.

I don't know about you, but hot tea is a non-negotiable, daily ritual for me. Herbal tea has so many natural benefits. Unfortunately, if you're using disposable tea bags, this habit could be doing you more harm than good. And look, I've been there. I tried to stick to "plastic-free" tea bags for a long time. The prevailing idea that loose leaf tea was a hassle held me back from ditching them all together. But after a bit of research, I will never go back to using tea bags and I'll tell you why in this episode! It doesn't matter whether your tea bags are created from nylon, hemp, plastic or paper - there are toxins leaking into your cup of tea. And no, it's not just coming from contaminated water.  A single tea bag can release 11.6 BILLION microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics into your cup of tea. And if you're microwaving the tea once it get's cold? Those microplastics increase. That's why I've made the switch the loose leaf tea! I actually love the ritual of it and don't find it to be inconvenient at all. If you're having a hard time with the switch, stick around until the end where I'm giving you all of my personal favorite tea products!

I’m excited to color in it (0:01:00) Codey: Probably the Cody season cuz everyone says I am I am Goblin Corps. (0:01:00) Jonnie: name like what would the harvest season be if it was if we went full goblin core (0:01:08) Codey: [LAUGH] Nobody, nobody wants that. (0:01:08) Jonnie: all right welcome everyone to the Cody season (0:01:15) Codey: Transcribs are always available in the show notes and on the website. (0:01:19) Codey: So you can go there to find those if you need them. (0:01:21) Codey: Today, Johnny and I will be doing a second harvest of Disney Dreamlight Valley. (0:01:25) Codey: Johnny, you’re on the original episode, yeah? (0:01:28) Jonnie: Yeah, that was my first appearance on The Heart of Season because I loved Disney Dreamlight Valley. Do I still love it? We can find out. (0:01:36) Codey: Stay tuned. (0:01:37) Codey: So yeah, we’re going to be talking about that. (0:01:40) Codey: I started playing it a couple of months ago, maybe, (0:01:43) Codey: because of this episode. (0:01:44) Codey: So you’re getting someone from really early on and the early access to someone who is more recent. (0:01:50) Codey: And then it came out two days ago as of this recording, (0:01:54) Codey: three days ago as of this recording. (0:01:57) Codey: Three days for me, four days for you, Johnny. (0:02:00) Codey: And so we might have– I think that they’re– (0:02:06) Codey: there were some changes. (0:02:06) Codey: Some things changed when the 1.0 came out. (0:02:11) Codey: So we’re going to discuss those, discuss our thoughts. (0:02:13) Codey: Before that, there is, of course, always news. (0:02:17) Codey: A shocking amount of news, given that I just recorded about news without two days ago. (0:02:24) Codey: Oh, how things change. (0:02:25) Codey: But first, we’re going to talk about what we’ve been up to. (0:02:27) Codey: Johnny, what have you been up to? (0:02:28) Jonnie: What have I been up to? I tried to jump on the Coral Island train and I was playing it on Xbox and (0:02:36) Jonnie: Unfortunately, the game is in a state where there’s some pretty game-breaking bugs early on. So I really like what I’ve played (0:02:44) Jonnie: but currently there’s a bug where the game crashes when you donate your 10th item to the museum and (0:02:50) Jonnie: I like donating things to museums and games and I (0:02:55) Jonnie: I kind of hit that bug and it really just made me not want to pull it. (0:02:58) Jonnie: So I like the idea of Coral Island but I had to put it down to wait for bugs to be fixed, which is a bit of a shame. (0:03:08) Jonnie: And other than that I’ve been playing Forza Motorsport because the new one of those just dropped and there’s something nice about car racing games where you can kind of switch your brain off, like not fully. (0:03:20) Jonnie: You know, just enough to be like “when do I brake? When do I turn?” and I like the more sort of simulation style. (0:03:28) Jonnie: I kind of like the Forza Horizon, which is more arcadey style racing. (0:03:33) Codey: Mm-hmm (0:03:34) Jonnie: So I’ve kind of just been enjoying that, where you sort of jump on, do a race, it takes like 10-20 minutes or something. (0:03:40) Jonnie: And then it’s kind of just a nice little reset. So I probably won’t stick with it for that long because it’s just on Game Pass, which is nice. (0:03:48) Jonnie: And Game Pass continues to just be awesome. (0:03:51) Codey: Yeah, I agree. So I have been, I got it, gosh, I got it for, actually I got it for Farming Simulator with you. (0:03:59) Codey: And then I forgot to get rid of it, and then I was looking at what was available on it, (0:04:04) Codey: and I saw that things like Disney Dreamlight Valley, Menacos Night Market, Coral Island, (0:04:09) Codey: like all of these different things were available on it. (0:04:11) Codey: And so I was like, hmm, well, guess I’m gonna stick with Game Pass for a while, because it is really nice. (0:04:17) Codey: nice. It’s giving the opportunity to play. (0:04:21) Codey: Do you play Trackmania? (0:04:22) Jonnie: Yeah, and it’s just a nice way to to try some stuff out right without expending a bunch of money (0:04:28) Codey: Do you play Trackmania? (0:04:30) Jonnie: I do not play track mania. I feel like I need to look up track mania (0:04:31) Codey: Okay. So Trackmania is kind of like what you’re saying, like it’s a race style game that’s not, it doesn’t feel like an arcade style. (0:04:43) Codey: It feels like kind of more of a real thing, but you’re basically racing against your own time. (0:04:49) Codey: time. You know now that I’m talking about (0:04:50) Jonnie: Ooh, okay. (0:04:51) Codey: it it sounds like an arcade one but it does it it feels really cool and there are whole there are streamers that play trackmania that have like setups that mimic cars that do like the pedals actually like are pressure sensed so they’ll like gas as much as they as they push and stuff like that it gets really crazy so there’s a decent amount of people out there doing it I believe it’s free that’s pretty cool (0:05:20) Jonnie: I might have to give that a go. (0:05:21) Codey: Yeah, definitely. (0:05:24) Jonnie: But yeah, other than that, I haven’t been gaming too much, so that’s where I’m at. Cody, what have you been up to? (0:05:30) Codey: I have been playing Disney Dreamlight Valley surprise surprise, but also my Tetris game as always (0:05:40) Codey: Hilariously I think over the last (0:05:44) Codey: Two days I’m loading it right now. I am almost at a million points (0:05:51) Codey: 986,000 points and (0:05:53) Codey: There is a cruise available right now. That is one and a half million (0:05:58) Codey: They have a thing going on right now where you get five times bonus points. I honestly have no idea. But I’m getting like five times the amount of VIP points that I have been. I don’t know, it’s like a whole other thing. So I’ve been playing quite a bit and I went from I think I was like five hundred fifty thousand about a week ago and I’ve just been Tetris-ing up a storm. So that’s exciting. Crews on the horizon. I did calculate it. So the (0:06:31) Codey: points pay for the cabin, which is about a thousand dollars. But I still have to pay a lot of money. (0:06:38) Codey: So it’s not like it’s a free, it’s not a free cruise. No, I always want to have that cruise in my back pocket. But yeah, so this… Well, you say Tetris-cult, there’s… (0:06:42) Jonnie: See, this is how they get you. (0:06:46) Jonnie: Cody, I feel like we might need an intervention. (0:06:56) Jonnie: Well, you and your titress cult seem to be going well. (0:07:00) Codey: it’s a cult of one. I don’t know anyone else that I’ve gotten into this game. I don’t… like everyone just makes fun of me for it. And I’m spitefully going to play it more because of that. (0:07:12) Jonnie: Sorry, the Tetris cult that you are blindfully a part of and haven’t realized yet. (0:07:15) Codey: Oh, okay, cool. Yes. If you are also part of the Tetris cult, please, please reach for it. Reach out. (0:07:20) Codey: I would… I don’t… I don’t want to be alone in the Tetris cult. Yeah, so that’s… I mean, (0:07:29) Codey: And those are, I’ve been playing. (0:07:30) Codey: I’ve been really focused on research and life, life stuff, so, um, yeah, that’s what we’ve been playing. (0:07:40) Jonnie: All right, well, shall we… yeah, shall we talk about some news? (0:07:41) Codey: Woo. (0:07:42) Codey: Yeah, we should. (0:07:44) Codey: Well, so some of it, um, NPR put out their best new games, 2023 article. (0:07:46) Jonnie: Because it’s been two days, so there’s only like, you know, an hour’s worth of news here to talk about. (0:07:56) Codey: The article is linked in the show notes. (0:07:58) Codey: It’s games. (0:07:59) Codey: I think for all it’s (0:08:00) Codey: it’s not just Xbox PlayStation and Nintendo. I think it also has like Steam games and stuff on it. (0:08:07) Codey: But so each they basically NPR went around to a bunch of their (0:08:13) Codey: production people like the people who make NPR run and asked them for game recommendations and what games they thought were the best games of this year. And some of the games include things that like that you would expect like Baldur’s Gate. But there were also some that were games that we have covered on this pod. (0:08:30) Codey: And I think it’s nice to just shout them out a little bit. (0:08:34) Codey: So first we have Terranil, which was recommended by Alex Curley, (0:08:38) Codey: who is the product manager in distribution. (0:08:41) Codey: Chia by Graham– oh, Raboon. (0:08:46) Codey: I’m going to butcher half these names. (0:08:48) Jonnie: Sure (0:08:49) Codey: A software engineer in publishing, Venba, (0:08:52) Codey: which was suggested by Rakisha Chase-Jackson, (0:08:56) Codey: who’s the project manager and member partnership. (0:08:57) Codey: Hello Kitty Ireland adventure suggested by (0:09:00) Codey: Nina Phil project coordinator and training and then we have a couple here that have like (0:09:05) Codey: because each of these they don’t just like say the name they also have like kind of a little blurb about the game um and recommending it and some of the blurbs had some pretty funny things so I have a couple that I pulled out here so Fey Farm which we did the Fey Farm episode didn’t we um I was about to say you did that episode I’m like no no I was also there um Arfy Getty the producer of one (0:09:22) Jonnie: We did. (0:09:31) Codey: said quote but while Fey Farm nails many elements of cozy games it doesn’t compare to Stardew Valley’s deep cast of characters to court and befriend Azoria’s residents ring hollow with extremely repetitive dialogue if I hear quote I’m looking forward to planting my spring crops one more time I’ll snap though the game doesn’t offer many surprises I still find myself coming back to it um I think I remember you saying this right that you thought that the characters were very two-dimensional. (0:09:58) Jonnie: Hey. (0:10:00) Jonnie: Two-dimensional, and I think I kind of came to that realization on like day one. (0:10:05) Jonnie: So, for me reading this I was like, yes, that is exactly how I feel about a farm. (0:10:12) Jonnie: Though I don’t know that since we did that episode I felt a strong pull to go back to that game, (0:10:17) Jonnie: because it’s kind of like a pretty exterior. But as Aafi says, it’s hollow on the inside. (0:10:24) Codey: Oh no. My comment for this is that it seems like a bad relationship. Can someone please check on Arfy for us? Thank you. And I will be checking on Johnny. Nina Phil recommended still the project coordinator from training. Also recommended Meneko’s Night Market. And I loved her blurb here. Quote, “There are so.many.cats.” First you have to evade the the secretive suit-clad agent. (0:10:54) Codey: the suit-made agent. (0:11:20) Jonnie: Or alternatively listen to the episode that is it Kevin now who who did the minifres night market episode (0:11:24) Codey: Mm-hm. (0:11:27) Jonnie: It’s it’s a great cozy little game. I I agree with pretty much everything That was that was said here except I kind of now want to see the vomiting of hairballs on screen That sounds kind of funny to be honest (0:11:27) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:11:36) Codey: No, I’m good. (0:11:39) Codey: Do you have you owned a cat ever? (0:11:41) Codey: Okay, that is like the one thing I always love like my dogs. (0:11:47) Codey: I I’ll sleep through anything. (0:11:49) Codey: I will sleep through my dog like, like literally like ripping apart an entire toilet paper roll before I’ve done that like I’ve woken up and been like, it looks like a toilet paper roll just like exploded in my room. (0:12:06) Codey: I’ll sleep through a lot of things, but cats throwing up is not one of them. (0:12:12) Jonnie: Mean it’s not great, but that’s kind of why I want to see it in a game like this because I think it’d be pretty funny (0:12:18) Codey: It would be cute if it was if they were vomit if they were if it was a cute hairball, but it’s really hard to make that cute. (0:12:26) Codey: Um, though if they could minute the people at Meneco would be able to do it. (0:12:32) Codey: of seasons a wonderful life. So our last two blurbs come from back. (0:12:36) Codey: Becky Brown, Becky, you, you nail in this, uh, broadcast recording technician. Um, first one was for story of seasons, wonderful life. Quote, I am more romantically attracted to the games spreadsheets than any of its wooden bachelor or bachelorettes who never changed their small talk even after you dutifully court them for three months with milk, soup and old coins. The obligatory divinely delivered child that you produce with your chosen spouse (0:13:06) Codey: or conversation. But remember, if you’d like to encourage their artistic talent, refuse any physical affection and schedule the play dates with the local pyrotechnics. Pyro technicians. (0:13:18) Codey: Like your child communicates so well that if you want them to be an artist that you have to like send them off to the, the local emos. Okay. (0:13:22) Jonnie: I mean, I love this description, it’s so good. (0:13:32) Jonnie: I mean, that’s how good artists get made, right? (0:13:36) Codey: You have to have some sort of solitude, some sort of deep. Yeah, for sure. Uh, and then Becky’s final suggestion was Moonstone Island. Quote, whatever genre mashup Moonstone Island may present itself as it’s ultimately a floating islands creature collector. Such a burn. Like, (0:13:56) Codey: I mean, she still recommended it. It’s so it’s like a burn, but it’s also, it’s like a self, it’s like a self aware burn of like, I’m playing this game. I recommend this game, (0:14:06) Codey: like it’s doing. And I’m just going to tell you, this is what it’s doing. So. (0:14:08) Jonnie: Right? (0:14:10) Jonnie: I feel like that’s so many cottagecore games in 2023 though, right? They’re like, (0:14:14) Jonnie: “We are a dick building, cozy, farm, life sim, MMO, RPG, (0:14:21) Jonnie: roguelite.” And it’s just like, just be one of those. Just one. That’s all. (0:14:22) Codey: Yep. And then, and then the DLC will add a rhythm based game, like the DLC will change something like change the game completely. So stupid. (0:14:38) Codey: Yeah, so that was that. There are a bunch of other games that they suggest some of which are good games that I have played or seen and wanted to play. (0:14:48) Codey: but obviously it was like 90 games or something. (0:14:52) Codey: It was a lot of games on that list, so if you want to see what other games the NPR folks have, that link is in the show notes. (0:15:00) Jonnie: And if you’re like me and surprised that MTS still exists. (0:15:05) Codey: Does New Zealand not have an NPR? (0:15:10) Jonnie: I mean, I feel like the era of NPR podcasts being the thing is dead, and the world is better for that. (0:15:17) Codey: Well, it’s not just podcasts, so it’s just national public radio. (0:15:17) Jonnie: I do not like their style of podcasts. (0:15:26) Codey: I can tune into it on my car ride to school. (0:15:28) Jonnie: Oh yeah, we definitely don’t have that. That’s another thing. (0:15:30) Codey: Okay. (0:15:31) Codey: Yeah, because it’s something I listen to on my car ride. (0:15:35) Codey: They have podcasts or certain section segments of NPR that they put out in a podcast form, (0:15:45) Codey: but it is not solely podcasts. (0:15:47) Codey: It’s for me, it’s mostly “Wow, it’s eight and I’m driving to school. Let me see what’s on the news.” (0:15:55) Codey: And two seconds later I’m like, “That’s enough.” (0:15:59) Jonnie: Yeah news is depressing except for the news that we have because you know our news is very uplifting (0:16:00) Codey: The world sucks. (0:16:04) Codey: Like the Game Awards? (0:16:05) Jonnie: This is this is just be our only news source. Well, I say that and then we go into the game awards, which you know Game Awards sucks. So (0:16:12) Codey: Yeah, uh game awards were yesterday Baldur’s Gate seemed to sweep I actually didn’t even see if they won best game or anything, but I’m assuming so they I was scrolling through to find (0:16:22) Codey: Anything that’s relevant to this to this podcast and I was like baldur gate. Mm-hmm. Yep. Mm-hmm. Yep, but (0:16:30) Codey: for the games for impact category, which is a category that is (0:16:35) Codey: The winner is a thought-provoking game with a pro social meaning or message the winner with this year was Chia (0:16:42) Codey: so awesome Chia is the (0:16:44) Codey: super cute little game set in New Caledon. (0:16:47) Codey: and it has a lot of culturally aware and culturally relevant material from New Caledonia and that’s awesome. (0:16:55) Codey: So yay Chia, good job. (0:16:58) Jonnie: I refuse to acknowledge the game awards. (0:17:01) Codey: Okay, cool. (0:17:04) Codey: Cool. The Game Awards, you mean Moonstone Island, which is our next piece of news. (0:17:10) Jonnie: Yes, yes. (0:17:10) Codey: We honestly should have put the Game Awards before the NPR thinks then the Moonstone Island news would have flowed seamlessly. (0:17:15) Codey: Al if you can just like (0:17:17) Codey: Do some edit wizardry editing. No, don’t do that (0:17:22) Codey: This island has a new free update and paid DLC coming (0:17:27) Codey: Paid DLC is called December lovely cozies, which is (0:17:30) Jonnie: Yeah, I feel like every time I’m on an episode Moonstone Island just has more DLC coming out. So I (0:17:38) Jonnie: Think it’s cool that they have kind of that constant stream of stuff and they seem to be doing a balance between (0:17:45) Jonnie: free and paid which I think is is cool, so (0:17:50) Jonnie: Great. I haven’t I haven’t dipped into Moonstone Island at all. I don’t know if you have (0:17:54) Codey: Nope. Nope. (0:17:56) Jonnie: But yeah, it seems it seems like they’re putting stuff out so (0:18:00) Jonnie: maybe that’s something we will get to in 2027 when some space frees up in our respective gaming calendars (0:18:06) Codey: You think I’ll be available then? I’m booking out to 2030. (0:18:09) Jonnie: One of us one of us one of us might be a (0:18:12) Codey: That’s true, that’s true. I will say the snowboard in the paid DLC, paid DLC is just $3.99 USD. (0:18:19) Codey: The snowboard looks pretty cool, especially if you can change the color of the snowboard. I’m not a big pink human, but being able to have a snowboard in a game is kind of unique, (0:18:31) Codey: especially if it allows you to move faster or something. (0:18:36) Codey: And then the free DLC includes festive decorations, more ice spirits, you can name your spirits, and even bigger barn owl and caps, and a bunch of different things. So if you are playing Moonstone Island and you maybe like we’re taking a break because you’ve done everything, here you go. This is coming, it’s already out. It’s already out. Well it’s the next news item that you know more (0:19:02) Jonnie: - Correct. (0:19:05) Jonnie: Next news item is Dredge and Dave the Diver are doing a crossover. (0:19:10) Jonnie: So to be clear, this is DLC for Dave the Diver and it’s a crossover with Dredge. (0:19:16) Jonnie: So for those that don’t remember, (0:19:18) Jonnie: you can go back and listen to the Dredge episodes that Kev and I did earlier this year as part of fishing month. (0:19:25) Jonnie: But Dredge is the sort of Lovecraftian horror of fishing game. (0:19:29) Jonnie: And now that’s bleeding its way in. (0:19:32) Jonnie: I’m going to play it again to Dave the Diver, which is concerning, because Dave the Diver does not seem like the sort of game that Lovecraftian horror is necessarily a great fit, but it is a great fit in terms of that, you know, indie game sort of doing cool DLC that sort of takes the game in a different direction. (0:19:52) Jonnie: I haven’t had a chance to play Dave the Diver yet, and this kind of just reminded me that I want to play Dave the Diver, but it doesn’t necessarily make me want to play it. (0:20:02) Jonnie: More, even though it’s a cool crossover. And I just like to see, you know, different developers kind of working with each other and, you know, utilizing their brand awareness to, you know, hopefully get more people playing more games, which is cool. So this looks cool. (0:20:23) Codey: A lot of games do weird crossovers lately. (0:20:29) Codey: Which in a couple of news items will be more relevant. (0:20:35) Codey: Next news item is about Palia, which is a really cute little MMO. (0:20:39) Codey: I believe it’s been out for a while. (0:20:41) Jonnie: I have no idea. (0:20:42) Jonnie: I forgot about this game until it popped up in the news. (0:20:45) Codey: Pretty sure it’s been out for a while. (0:20:46) Codey: Oh, there’s an open beta. (0:20:48) Codey: So yeah, it’s the longest of open betos. (0:20:53) Codey: You build a life with friends and are cozy sim MMO set in a high fantasy world. (0:20:58) Codey: It’s gorgeous. (0:20:59) Codey: It has a lot of ability to change things. (0:21:05) Codey: What is it? (0:21:06) Codey: Creativity? (0:21:06) Jonnie: Just like, yeah, creativity and, you know, like, I think the thing that stood out is when they were decorating the house, you could like adjust things, it wasn’t just the four degrees or four, you know, rotations, you could rotate anything to any direction to lay out things in in a way that you really wanted to, which that really stood out to me. (0:21:07) Codey: Creativity. (0:21:28) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:21:29) Jonnie: Yeah, that looked awesome. I kind of forgot this game existed and and watching the trailer a gave (0:21:36) Jonnie: me like strong World of Warcraft vibes, but like, you know, slightly more up to date art style. And it kind of just made me interested in the idea of a cozy MMO. Like, I don’t really understand how that would work. But I’m into the idea and I’m maybe keen to find out. (0:21:58) Codey: Yeah, um, I am also interested in finding out so if you may have one play together and let me know. (0:22:05) Codey: Um, and (0:22:06) Jonnie: Hell yeah. Let’s do that. Let’s do that. (0:22:08) Jonnie: Ah, do we actually say the news that it’s coming to Switch on the 14th of December? (0:22:13) Codey: We’ll get to that eventually first let’s let’s come up with what day next week. Are you available? No, I’m kidding. (0:22:19) Codey: So yeah, it’s coming to switch on December 14th and (0:22:25) Codey: It’s you get specific Nintendo switch (0:22:28) Codey: awards if you link your account and log on with Nintendo switch live you get a leap froggy outfit a mushroom glider and a froggy bucket I don’t know why they’re frog themed whatever available and that’s until January 14th 2024 so if you really want that froggy froggy outfit you gotta you gotta do it you got to get on it. They are cute little outfits, I’m not going to lie. (0:22:58) Codey: Yeah, looks like a really cute game. So, is this game leaving early access? No idea. (0:23:07) Codey: But, Palia, very cute. (0:23:10) Jonnie: Yeah, I think you’re more excited about this next news item than I am, so why don’t you- (0:23:15) Codey: I mean, I’m not excited at all. I think both of us were like, “Ugh.” (0:23:24) Jonnie: Correct. (0:23:25) Codey: R has been 64 is now on Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack. (0:23:30) Codey: That’s it. That’s the news. The next thing, so this is going back to cool crossovers (0:23:37) Codey: and questionable crossovers. Lego Fortnite. (0:23:40) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:23:42) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:23:44) Jonnie: I, so I’ve never been a Fortniter. (0:23:48) Jonnie: I’ve never played Fortnite. (0:23:50) Jonnie: I’ve never had any interest in playing Fortnite. (0:23:53) Jonnie: I really, really wanna play this. (0:23:55) Jonnie: It looks friggin’ awesome. (0:23:58) Jonnie: Like, it makes so much sense. (0:24:00) Jonnie: Like, so, like, first of all, (0:24:03) Jonnie: before we get too much into this, (0:24:05) Jonnie: is this like out now? (0:24:06) Jonnie: ‘Cause that’s the, the trailer is like, (0:24:08) Jonnie: “Hey, just find it in Fortnite.” (0:24:10) Jonnie: So I assume this is out now. (0:24:11) Jonnie: That’s my assumption, right? (0:24:12) Jonnie: I’m gonna log off this call I’m gonna go download Fortnite. (0:24:14) Jonnie: That’s what I’m doing. Is that right? (0:24:15) Codey: Well, don’t do that. (0:24:19) Codey: Seeing as how there’s a LEGO Fortnite status Twitter page. (0:24:27) Codey: I think it is. I think it is. (0:24:30) Jonnie: Yeah, I’m so excited. So the trailer, basically like it’s just like now there is Minecraft in Fortnite and it’s LEGO. That’s what this is, right? And it makes so much sense, right? Like Fortnite has (0:24:32) Codey: Oh my god. (0:24:48) Jonnie: the infrastructure, the building mechanics, everything done. All they were missing is like (0:24:55) Jonnie: What’s the reason? And then LEGO pops up and is like, “Hey, we exist.” (0:25:00) Jonnie: And it just makes sense, like… (0:25:04) Jonnie: And I would say, I was in the category of people that was like, “If you asked me yesterday, will you ever play Fortnite?” (0:25:08) Codey: Why would I do that, no it’s disgusting. (0:25:10) Jonnie: I would be like, “Hell no. Fortnite is a stupid game for stupid babies.” (0:25:15) Jonnie: It’s gross. I don’t want to be associated with Fortnite. (0:25:18) Jonnie: But all it took is LEGO, and now I am like, “I am in. I want to do this.” (0:25:23) Codey: so the thing that gets me is that I will say I haven’t played fortnite in a hot in a hot minute (0:25:30) Codey: but this doesn’t even this looks like this it it’s not fortnite yeah it’s minecraft lego with a fortnite skin (0:25:37) Jonnie: It’s not Fortnite, it’s Minecraft with LEGO! (0:25:46) Jonnie: Yeah, well, so I assume that this is kind of the next evolution of fortnight where the game itself is so popular (0:25:52) Jonnie: using it as a base for (0:25:54) Jonnie: Essentially new games like this just looks like a new game like this is not like oh if you’re in for if you like fortnight There’s now Lego fortnight. It’s like no. Do you like minecraft? (0:26:04) Jonnie: If so download fortnight and play Lego Minecraft like this is this looks like it’s made for (0:26:11) Jonnie: listeners of the harvest season because there’s there’s farming this building, you know (0:26:16) Jonnie: Lego kind of gives it a more cozy vibe. Like I’m not really a minecraft person. I just never quite clicked with me I know you’re you’ve been a bit of a minecraft person (0:26:25) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:26:26) Jonnie: So I feel like we’re just gonna get lost in this one. Like it’s just it’s inevitable This is this is what our lives are gonna be now like (0:26:33) Jonnie: Palia yeah, we might try that but Lego fortnight. This is gonna be what we do for the next year of our lives (0:26:37) Codey: Be careful how you say “our.” (0:26:40) Codey: I’m… you’re… (0:26:41) Jonnie: Look I know I know how you operate you’re gonna get sucked into this I guarantee (0:26:45) Codey: I don’t… I don’t want to do this. (0:26:48) Codey: So, Al wrote, “Fortnite is a farming game now, apparently.” (0:26:51) Codey: I said, “How does this have anything to do with Fortnite?” (0:26:54) Codey: Al said, “It is the game, Fortnite. It has something to do with it, (0:26:58) Codey: in the same way that Jack Skellington has to do with Disney’s Dreamlight Valley. (0:27:02) Codey: It is in the game. (0:27:04) Codey: Lego Fortnite is part of Fortnite. (0:27:07) Codey: Fortnite for some reason. (0:27:09) Codey: The for some reason just got me. (0:27:13) Codey: I could like read it in his words and like the sass. (0:27:19) Codey: Cause he also wrote that comment at like very late last night. (0:27:22) Codey: It was really funny. (0:27:23) Codey: He’s just sick of my, sick of me, sick of my goober stuff. (0:27:27) Codey: Yeah, I will watch, I’ll watch other people play it. (0:27:28) Jonnie: Yeah, I’m excited for this stuff. (0:27:31) Codey: But gosh, darn, I miss me with the epic. (0:27:36) Jonnie: So you will live in denial for a few weeks and then eventually you will come over to the dark side. (0:27:37) Codey: Okay, cool. (0:27:44) Codey: I would also go over to the dark side for a clomper plushie, (0:27:49) Codey: which is our next news item. (0:27:54) Codey: Clomper and Glanter Plushes. (0:27:57) Codey: These are, these are creatures from Ooblets. (0:28:00) Codey: Those plushes are now available in the United States and they are joining Shrumbo. (0:28:05) Codey: Clomper. (0:28:07) Codey: Look at look at him’s little face. There is not a thought inside those eyes. (0:28:14) Jonnie: I mean, I think the clump like I’m a no one ooblets hater, right? (0:28:19) Jonnie: My problem is like I agree the clump of plush super cute when I saw in the news (0:28:24) Jonnie: clumpering Glanta Plushers are out. I (0:28:27) Jonnie: Couldn’t even give you a guess as to what they looked like until I clicked on the link and saw the picture like Shrumbo (0:28:29) Codey: You were like, “Oh yeah, right, that one.” (0:28:33) Jonnie: Shrumbo. Yeah, Shrumbo is the one name that like I was like, yeah, okay I think I’m pretty sure I know what Shrumbo is but I mean, come on like (0:28:36) Codey: Yep, yep, very cute, very cute. (0:28:42) Jonnie: Just do better ooblets do better (0:28:44) Jonnie: But very cute. (0:28:51) Codey: I just realized that these next items I didn’t, I don’t even know if there’s news about, I I don’t know what the news is or if they’re just new games that. (0:28:59) Codey: Have recently been introduced and I believe that is the case. (0:29:03) Codey: Okay, so we have. (0:29:04) Jonnie: I believe that is the case. I don’t think we’ve talked about any of these. (0:29:07) Codey: Yeah, I think that the last of the last one I added. (0:29:11) Codey: And I believe it’s already out. So that one is going to be coming soon. (0:29:16) Codey: Like I you will hear more about it. (0:29:18) Codey: But these other three, these are new games that just just popped up on our horizon. (0:29:23) Codey: So the first one is called loose leaf. It is a tea witch simulator. (0:29:27) Codey: later. (0:29:29) Codey: It looks really cute you it’s a very hyper-realistic tea brewing simulation (0:29:34) Jonnie: yeah so I’m gonna call with heat hit peak which no more witches if you are working on a game we are at peak which we do not need any more witches do (0:29:38) Codey: Peek with it (0:29:43) Codey: So I mean I’m I agree I think that’s if they just said (0:29:48) Codey: Brew tea and read folks Tarot’s like if they said the psychic simulator or something I would have been more the word which was in it and I was like miss me like miss (0:30:00) Codey: Not interested. It looks really cute. I like the concept of (0:30:04) Codey: reading people’s Tarot (0:30:06) Codey: I am NOT a Tarot of human personally, but I did I have a friend who collects Tarot decks I believe that they’re gorgeous and I understand the usage of Tarot to self-reflect (0:30:17) Codey: Because you can kind of read what you want (0:30:19) Codey: Whenever you’re if you have something in mind, but you’re like not sure what you want (0:30:24) Jonnie: Yeah, and I liked the I liked the look of this game. So I tried a few of the (0:30:29) Jonnie: There was like those Bureau brewing sort of simulator games that came out in the last few years (0:30:35) Jonnie: and None of them really clicked because they were sort of missing an interesting game (0:30:40) Jonnie: Element where you were kind of just going through the motions to make a thing and then sell the thing and there was (0:30:45) Jonnie: It’s kind of just missing that game aspect. I think the addition of that tarot card reading and the trailer sort of shows um (0:30:54) Jonnie: you know some some activity that looks like you know you do some interpretation and and that being very tied to the tea that You’re brewing for your customer to me. It just was like oh, this feels like a more complete (0:31:04) Jonnie: game experience that that does appeal to me I (0:31:08) Codey: Yeah. (0:31:09) Jonnie: Also, just really like vibe with them calling it the most in-depth tea brewing simulation ever like there is this plethora of tea brewing simulation out there (0:31:16) Codey: Yeah. (0:31:18) Codey: Yeah. (0:31:20) Codey: It’s like it is the most in-depth shred junk mail simulator and turn shredded junk mail into planting planters to give to children and dogs simulator. (0:31:36) Codey: It’s like, oh, there’s so many games that (0:31:38) Codey: it’s scratching that itch. (0:31:42) Codey: So, so goober. (0:31:44) Codey: Also, the fact that they say ever makes me think that like what if someone comes out with a more in-depth one and then they have to make theirs more, more in-depth. (0:31:52) Jonnie: Yeah But the release date on this one is to be announced so (0:31:57) Jonnie: My guess would be probably not too late 2020 for early 2025 at the earliest (0:32:02) Codey: Ooh we getting some some estimates from Johnny. (0:32:06) Jonnie: Cody I think we have a problem (0:32:08) Codey: What’s up? The next one? (0:32:10) Jonnie: This this next game is gonna be a huge problem in my life (0:32:15) Codey: Yeah literally my first comment is no this is dangerous. (0:32:22) Jonnie: I saw that comment and I opened the link and I was like, “I don’t know, and this is fine.” (0:32:26) Jonnie: And then I read about what is going on with this game and I was like, “Oh, oh no.” (0:32:29) Codey: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. (0:32:32) Codey: So this game is called “Rusty’s Retirement” and it’s on Steam. It’ll be available on Steam. It’s not available yet, but whenever it is, Lord help us all. (0:32:41) Jonnie: Q1 2024. (0:33:00) Codey: So this is like… (0:33:03) Codey: Like, imagine you have a Chrome screen up. (0:33:08) Codey: This is at the bottom of it. (0:33:10) Codey: Perpetually. (0:33:12) Codey: So you’re trying to work, you’re trying to code, you’re trying to write a paper, (0:33:16) Codey: but you’re like, “Oh, my crops are ready.” (0:33:18) Codey: “Oh, oh, my automation is… I need to ref… I need to fix that.” (0:33:24) Codey: “Oh, I don’t like the way I organize.” (0:33:27) Jonnie: We’re going to be sitting here recording episodes of the harvest season and it’s just going to be like five, five minutes of silence in the recording. (0:33:30) Codey: playing (0:33:32) Codey: I detect no lines yeah in this game it just looks so peaceful and pleasing and it looks like things are floating around I don’t even remember if there’s a but there oh yeah (0:33:49) Jonnie: Yeah, no video yet, but coming out soon. (0:33:51) Jonnie: And the thing that, you know, I’ve talked a few times about the idea of an idle farming game, you know, like a (0:33:59) Jonnie: trims or something like that, and I think this is such a (0:34:04) Jonnie: smart/evil way of doing something like this, where it’s just omnipresent on your screen. (0:34:10) Jonnie: You can kind of just do it in the background, and I think this is, you know, (0:34:14) Jonnie: the pixel art style in general is very overplayed in a cottagecore, but in this case, (0:34:19) Jonnie: it makes a ton of sense, and I like the pixel art style. It does feel visually distinct from a lot of other games. (0:34:25) Codey: Yeah, I love in their blurb they say multitasking. (0:34:30) Codey: Rusty’s retirement is built to sit comfortably at the bottom of your screen, (0:34:34) Codey: allowing you to do other tasks while caring for your farm. (0:34:36) Codey: Zoom in or out for less distracting view, (0:34:38) Codey: or alternatively, turn on focus mode, (0:34:41) Codey: which slows down crop production. (0:34:43) Codey: They don’t say turn the game off. (0:34:45) Codey: They say turn on focus mode. (0:34:48) Jonnie: We help you focus by making the game move slightly slower. (0:34:51) Codey: It’ll move slower. (0:34:53) Codey: We know you’re not gonna turn this game on. (0:34:55) Codey: We know it. Oh my gosh, this game. (0:34:59) Jonnie: The other thing I like is automation with robots. (0:35:03) Jonnie: I think that’s such a cool way of doing automation and there’s a GIF part way down on the page that sort of shows all of the robots coming out from what looks like a shed to harvest crops or do a bunch of other things. (0:35:15) Jonnie: And I’m just like, oh my God, (0:35:17) Jonnie: This looks so visually… (0:35:18) Jonnie: …satisfying for how this game is gonna play, so I’m afraid. (0:35:27) Codey: I’m afraid. (0:35:29) Codey: Ha ha, I’m in danger. (0:35:37) Jonnie: Yeah, I just need to jam all of my productivity in now so that when this comes out, I, you know, I can, yep, yep. (0:35:44) Codey: Don’t have to be productive (0:35:48) Codey: Okay Two more games first one. I don’t have a lot to say about this home free quote developed by acorn lab (0:35:56) Codey: Acorn land labs home free is a solar punk off-grid video game. That’s more than mere entertainment It’s a bridge to a possible future one where we might return where we return to the essence of living in harmony with nature (0:36:07) Codey: Drawing direct inspiration from free life technologies this game offers an immersive guide to simpler sustainable and self-sufficient living (0:36:14) Codey: Innovative methane digesters solar ovens efficient folder voltaics biomass heating (0:36:19) Codey: Biogas cooking and elegant composting solutions all exist today explore them in home free (0:36:28) Jonnie: Yeah, I don’t know that I have a huge amount to say either, like it’s cool to be sort of taking a sustainable approach and a look toward the future of what could be possible and using a game as a vehicle for making people aware of this sort of stuff, which is a cool thing to do. (0:36:44) Jonnie: Um, but equally I think I think you need something more to kind of make a game like this land and I’ll just need to see more before it’s like actually something that interests me or not, but cool idea. (0:36:56) Codey: Yeah. Yeah, for sure! And finally, the game that I have already purchased and just need to play, (0:37:04) Codey: it’s called Bug and Seek. And I literally wrote, “I don’t care if this isn’t Cottagecore, this podcast is now Cottagecore Games and Bug Games for Cody.” So I guess I didn’t have to say that the Goblincore version of this podcast is the Cody season. We can just call it Bug Games for Cody. (0:37:25) Codey: So yeah, Vug N Seek quote. (0:37:26) Codey: Catch bugs and clues in this cozy bug catching sim creature collector styled like an 8-bit classic. (0:37:33) Codey: You’ve bought the local bug museum, abandoned after a mysterious robbery. (0:37:38) Codey: Fill orders, build your collection, and upgrade your skills and equipment while exploring Bugberg and uncovering its secrets. (0:37:49) Codey: As someone who works in a museum. (0:37:49) Jonnie: I like the idea that you own the museum. That’s a very cool thing to me. (0:37:56) Codey: And would not be an insect museum and would not be upset to continue to do that as a career. (0:38:06) Codey: I color me intrigued. (0:38:08) Jonnie: Yeah, and I’m just watching the trailer for it now. (0:38:12) Jonnie: And it looks like that there is incentive to catch bugs multiple times, which– (0:38:21) Jonnie: and what I mean by that is in games like Animal Crossing or Coral Island or whatever where they have bug catching, (0:38:27) Jonnie: you catch the bug the first time and you donate it to the museum. (0:38:29) Jonnie: And then after that, it’s just like, hey, (0:38:31) Jonnie: now it’s a source of money. (0:38:34) Jonnie: But it looks like they’re tying some sort of leveling up or skills. (0:38:38) Jonnie: This is just a cool little idea. I think it’s only out on Steam currently. (0:38:46) Codey: Yeah, but it is on Steam, Mac and Windows, so I’m buying it because I can play it on my Mac. (0:38:55) Codey: So that when I am doing bug science and then I need a break, I can play. (0:39:03) Codey: Yeah, that was all the news. A lot of news, but we can shift on over to our main topic of Second Harvest of Disney Dreamlight Valley. (0:39:15) Al From The Future: Hi listeners, just a very quick note from Al from the future here. (0:39:20) Al From The Future: This episode, this discussion of Disney Dreamlight Valley does include some (0:39:26) Al From The Future: reasonably heavy topics, so if you’re not emotionally in a place to deal with those sorts of things, then just bear that in mind. (0:39:34) Al From The Future: On with the topic. (0:39:36) Codey: I will mention that this game was already the topic of a podcast called “I Listened to Goofy” on October 19th, 2022, and that had Alan Johnny. (0:39:52) Codey: And so if you want to hear kind of like, how does this game play, how does it, what are the benefits, like, what are our goals? (0:40:06) Codey: Or our, like, critical review of it or whatever, that’s where you’d find that. This is kind of us just, like, talking about the game on a more casual, less structured way. (0:40:16) Codey: I have some thoughts that I, and questions that I’ve written down, and I also have notes that I, like, on the, uh, what are these things? Show notes. (0:40:26) Codey: Uh, but also in a physical form that I can read through and look through. (0:40:32) Codey: Um, but also just hearing what Johnny’s thoughts are, uh, a year. (0:40:36) Codey: Um, and are you, are you still playing a Disney dream in my Valley? (0:40:40) Jonnie: So over the course of the year, I’ve kind of like dipped in and out as content has come out. (0:40:47) Jonnie: I think what they’re going for is a game that kind of wants you to check in daily. (0:40:54) Jonnie: I don’t find that’s how I want to play this game. (0:40:58) Jonnie: I find I want to play it for like, you know, intensely for like a week or two and churn through a bunch of the content and then put it back down. (0:41:07) Jonnie: So that’s probably more what I’ve been doing over the course of the year. (0:41:10) Jonnie: I’ll play it a lot for a week and then I’ll put it down for a week. (0:41:18) Codey: I mean that’s I feel like that’s a good way to play it as well. It’s like (0:41:23) Codey: You know you play the content that’s available and then but they’re they’re releasing a good amount of stuff like consistently (0:41:32) Codey: So you’re not like really ever bored (0:41:36) Codey: too too much and I think another benefit of playing daily because there are (0:41:41) Codey: kind of like in Animal Crossing where (0:41:45) Codey: There’s like the money rock every day or whatever. (0:41:48) Codey: Right? Like a rock. One rock that you hit with the shovel and then it just will give you a heck ton of bells. (0:41:52) Codey: This has similar things. (0:41:56) Codey: There’s like the night thorns. There’s always at least one night thorn that has popped up overnight that just gives out a heck ton of coins. (0:42:04) Codey: So you can like find that and get rid of the night thorn. (0:42:08) Codey: Gear Valley. (0:42:10) Jonnie: I just think, you know, my reflection, you know, since we recorded the first episode on on what I like about this game is it’s not, it doesn’t hit the same parts of my brain as a game like Animal Crossing, that’s like I’m much more driven by the character story quest side of this game than I am the daily chicken, life sim aspect of this game, which I think is why I don’t like, (0:42:40) Jonnie: stuff absolutely exists. And it’s, you know, I think that’s what they’re going for is that daily chicken style. That’s just not the part that this game hits for me. (0:42:52) Codey: Mm-hmm. Yeah, what is it? Like what is the appeal of it for you then? (0:42:57) Jonnie: It’s the characters, right? (0:42:59) Jonnie: So the way I think the characters interact in this game is magical. (0:43:07) Jonnie: To me, that’s the real highlight of the game. (0:43:10) Jonnie: And it’s not just, oh, I have nostalgia for this series of Disney characters. (0:43:17) Jonnie: And it’s a fun way to interact with them. (0:43:19) Jonnie: It’s actually that the Disney characters from different properties interact with each other in ways that are really thoughtful. (0:43:27) Jonnie: Um, and add a lot to those characters and what you like about characters. (0:43:33) Jonnie: And for some that you potentially don’t know as well, um, kind of present them in a way that makes them, you know, it makes you want to go and watch a movie about them. (0:43:42) Jonnie: So, so an example of that is, um, uh, as part of Skaar’s storyline, he’s, you know, (0:43:49) Jonnie: on the hunt for food and Remy keeps trying to find food for him to cook. (0:43:53) Jonnie: But obviously being a life-some game, there’s not a strong focus on meat (0:43:57) Jonnie: of fish, right? It’s not like you can just go and kill a cow and get a steak. (0:44:01) Jonnie: That’s what Skaar wants. (0:44:02) Jonnie: And Remy interacting with Skaar is not something that I ever had on my bingo card. (0:44:04) Codey: Mm-hmm (0:44:08) Jonnie: I’ve never watched Ratatouille. (0:44:10) Jonnie: But this made me want to, you know, this made me want to go and watch Ratatouille after seeing them interact and have the storyline together. (0:44:11) Codey: Right (0:44:17) Codey: Yeah Yeah, I think gosh, I can’t remember what the what the ones for me were (0:44:25) Codey: Maybe it’s like Merlin and Ariel (0:44:28) Codey: Or like no, it was Ursula and stitch. I (0:44:32) Codey: I think, because Ursula… (0:44:34) Codey: …hates Stitch and Stitch ends up going and apologizing to Ursula because he’s, you know, annoyed her or whatever. (0:44:42) Codey: And I was like, “This is crazy.” (0:44:45) Jonnie: Right? (0:44:48) Codey: And the characters are so genuine. (0:44:50) Codey: Like, and they don’t make the villains like a good guy. (0:44:56) Codey: Like, they’re still pretty clearly a villain. (0:45:00) Codey: Um, pretty clearly, I mean, they try and- (0:45:04) Codey: like, help the- the- with, uh, keeping the- the- the Valley alive or whatever, like, they- they’ll help a little bit, and you can, like, befriend them and stuff, but- (0:45:16) Codey: like, Scar isn’t- there’s, like, one moment where I- I- I thought he was trying to poison me. (0:45:22) Codey: Um, you know, stuff like that, and it was like, “Oh, you! I got my eye on you!” (0:45:28) Jonnie: Yeah, it’s a sky roll all the time is like are you sure you’re the right person to be in charge cuz I’m really really good At being a charge (0:45:34) Codey: I could be better. Oh, I tried to poison you. Oh, I thought that would work. (0:45:41) Codey: And then I could be in charge. It’s like, excuse? (0:45:46) Codey: Yeah, so I guess, so you’ve hit credits. Okay. I have not hit credits. The story kind of like (0:45:57) Codey: in the Valley, you come to it and they, everyone keeps talking about this ruler that used to exist. (0:46:02) Codey: Um… (0:46:04) Codey: I guess here is a mild spoiler, I don’t know how spoiler we want to get and I obviously like I don’t want you to spoil the ending for me so like we’re like spoiling like kind of midway. (0:46:16) Codey: Um… (0:46:16) Codey: You were the ruler? (0:46:18) Codey: Uh… (0:46:20) Codey: But part of you, like your inner child, like ripped itself out of you? (0:46:28) Codey: Um… and that part of you has a lot of bad feelings and negative thoughts. (0:46:34) Codey: And you are trying to help heal that part of you. (0:46:38) Codey: And it was… man there was like what? There was literally a part, oh my gosh I took a picture. (0:46:44) Codey: There was literally a part where I was playing and it like is going to go into the backstory of the character. (0:46:52) Codey: Um… like into your history. (0:46:54) Codey: And it literally gives you like a content warning. (0:47:00) Codey: Um… (0:47:02) Codey: If you’re scrolling back through to where… (0:47:04) Jonnie: Yeah, that part of the game is sort of the main story that revolves around your character, I think is exceptionally well done, particularly for, you know, likely people that are listening to this podcast, right, because a lot of us have the connection to these characters from our childhood. (0:47:24) Jonnie: And I think the fact that you were the past ruler is not a spoiler. I think you pick that up in sort of the first 10 minutes of the game. It’s heavily implied. (0:47:30) Codey: okay okay well because because people are like I don’t know where the ruler went you look really familiar and it’s like okay (0:47:34) Jonnie: Right. That. Yeah, so it’s not revealed but it’s very heavily foreshadowed very early on in the game but I think it’s and in the story of that, you know, this being an important part of your youth and reconnecting with the characters, but in a slightly different way is a really great storyline. (0:47:58) Jonnie: It’s also presented in a way that doesn’t I think like it’s not like the game I don’t think wouldn’t land for you know younger players that they may not pick up on all of the aspects but I don’t think it’s presented in a way where they would be like not having fun with the game you know like little things like the night thorns effectively or the overall thing that’s happening is called the forgettening or something right which which you know you can pretty cut represents you know you as the character sort of forgetting about (0:48:34) Jonnie: this aspect of your childhood or becoming more distant from it and a lot of the negative things in the world being sort of the result of you becoming distant from from Disney and from these characters so I think it’s just a really good setup and one of the things that stands out to me so would have been really easy for it to come across as like kind of hokey or cliche And it doesn’t like it sometimes it gets (0:48:59) Codey: Mm-hmm. (0:49:04) Jonnie: close to that line particularly with characters like Mickey and Minnie and Goofy because they’re kind of just like overly earnest characters anyway but as you progress through the game like I think the story is handled really really (0:49:16) Codey: well even like those characters are positive and like they just have this like never-ending like enthusiasm and stuff but like (0:49:25) Codey: they do The people that designed this game do them pretty dirty (0:49:30) Codey: Because it starts off and Mickey’s in the world But he can’t find Minnie and then she’s like kind of a ghost for a while and then you finally like (0:49:42) Codey: Make her real again, but she doesn’t remember anything. She doesn’t know who Mickey is (0:49:46) Codey: So imagine like missing the person you love and then you finally find them, and they’re just like who you? (0:49:56) Codey: Oh my gosh, so I found I found the thing so when you’re doing these forgotten memory quests You’re basically like trying to regain your your memories (0:50:04) Codey: as the (0:50:07) Codey: The other version of you is called the forgotten (0:50:10) Codey: And it says the take care the forgotten memories quests deal with some difficult emotions and themes such as sadness loneliness (0:50:16) Codey: Anger if you’re not in the right space to deal with these themes consider returning to your village (0:50:22) Codey: Until you feel prepared to face them, so it’s basically the game being like if you can’t do this right now (0:50:30) Codey: Go go fish for a bit go play with your villagers for a bit like you don’t have to do this (0:50:36) Codey: But it helps you kind of understand like why the forgotten became the forgotten and I think that’s another thing that’s really important is you know some of us go to places in our lives and we (0:50:47) Codey: Like are really harsh critics of ourselves (0:50:51) Codey: Because we’re not where we think we should be or whatever or we’ve made a lot of mistakes (0:50:59) Codey: But that happens and sometimes you need to revisit those moments and have grace and compassion for yourself (0:51:04) Codey: And when you as you revisit them you kind of come back and you talk to someone about them And they’re like what did you learn and you’re like? (0:51:11) Codey: Wow, this person’s really sad (0:51:14) Codey: And sometimes it do be that way (0:51:16) Jonnie: Yeah, I agree. I think like so for me yet like I think the the story is is what goes best And you mentioned you know the the Mickey mini storyline the another one. That’s sort of in a similar vein (0:51:30) Jonnie: Is the (0:51:33) Jonnie: Anna and (0:51:36) Jonnie: What’s what’s his name his name is just walked out of my brain (0:51:39) Jonnie: Kristoff we’re at one point in order to save the Valley (0:51:46) Jonnie: I have to forget or she

(T/W) This episode is an extremely personal one for me, because as well as getting through a whole pot of tea and discussing my personal television tastes, I also disclose my personal struggles throughout lockdown, particularly being diagnosed with a chronic illness. Note: Apologies for the static noises that occur during this episode! I think it might be because I was next to my phone when I recorded but wanted to give prior warning.
