Podcasts about season zero

This week, our Grand Tour takes us to one of the most unique series we've ever covered: Gonzo's 26-episode cult classic Welcome to the N.H.K.! Based on the 2002 novel by Takimoto Tatsuhiko, this 2006 series explores Japan's hikkikomori (social withdrawal) phenomenon, modern Otaku culture, internet-era suicide pacts, and many more contemporary issues, doing it all with startling clarity, immense empathy, and a whole lot of very wacky humor. It's a finger-on-the-pulse series for Japan in the mid-2000s, but one with many resonances for viewers all over the globe, leading to a rich and engaging conversation between our hosts. There is no other show out there quite like Welcome to the N.H.K. – it almost feels like a conspiracy…Enjoy, and come back next week as we watch the Yu-Gi-Oh! series The Man doesn't want you to see: the original 27-episode Toei anime from 1998 (a.k.a. “Season Zero”). Time Chart:Theme Song: 0:00:00 – 0:01:15Intro and History: 0:01:15 – 1:09:15Eyecatch Break: 1:09:15 – 1:10:01Welcome to the N.H.K.

It's Valentine's Day(ish, still, shush) and so naturally the Indieventure trio have turned our attention to… horror games! Yes, we're really on-form with our historic refusal to do normal seasonal celebration episodes, as it's recently occurred to us that it's been about a year and a half since we last did a dedicated horror deep dive. And since resident goth-at-heart Rebecca is steering the ship this week, and the only thing she craves more in games than a relatable love story is a good spookening with a side-order of existential dread, this theming makes total sense, trust us. Since our Season Zero horror episode focussed on the stone-cold classics of the indie space, we've decided to make this episode specifically about the cool indie horror games and gaming trends that we feel have emerged in the first half of this decade. (Also, do you ever think about how the 2020s are half over already? Surely that's the scariest thing of all.)  We've got it all covered here: liminal space horror, hidden object horror, mascot horror, retro horror, even non-horror games that borrow liberally from the horror aesthetic! Because it's love day and all naturally we touch on the up-and-coming genre that is romantic horror too, which just as naturally leads to a discussion about queer horror. There's also some chat about the indie horror developers whose work is codifying the whole scene for this decade, as well as some of the formerly-indie devs who've broken out into AA and AAA spaces thanks to their earlier work. It's a whistlestop tour but we take in all the hits, and if there's an essential work of indie horror from the past five years you think we've missed, please do let us know – we love a good recommendation! We end as ever with our hyperfixations, and Rachel has been watching all of the various Real Housewives series, and we mean all of them, no city has been spared as long as it has a ready supply of disgustingly filthy rich families willing to entertain and amaze reality TV aficionados with their antics. Liam is still on a roll with hunting down cool recent indie releases following our last episode, this time in the form of Spirit Swap: Lofi Beats to Match 3 To and Rift of the Necrodancer. And Rebecca has some big feelings to share following her recently-completed first-time playthrough of Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, which means she has now finally finished the whole main story of the franchise (but somehow still has a lot of supplementary materials left to go before she's really done-done).

Like it or not, 2024 is almost over, and Indieventure is closing out the year with a trilogy of episodes looking back on our recent experiences of the games industry. We're saving the more targeted analysis of the year in games and of course our big GOTY reveal for the two episodes due out in December, but today we're starting out with a more general question: how has working in games media impacted our experiences of gaming as a hobby? What starts out as a light-hearted "day in the life of a games journalist" chat quickly turns into a group therapy session where we go into a fairly serious examination of the realities of working in games media in the 2020s, both good and bad. This is less a chat about specific games and more an overview of games media trends both visible and invisible to the audience, so if you've ever wanted to hear some inside baseball delivered from the Indieventure trio's perspective, here's your chance. We promise the mood gets lighter over the rest of the holiday season episodes, but we're glad we got all this off our chests! This episode also includes our final pre-GOTY "what we've been playing" round-up, in which Rachel gives a spoiler-free overview of Rise of the Golden Idol; Rebecca catches up on the long-awaited full release of Phoenix Springs; and despite spending much of the past month on another continent, Liam has somehow put another 10 hours into Factorio following the launch of the Space Age expansion. Last but not least, our hyperfixations for this episode see Liam geeking out over the Half-Life 2: 20th Anniversary Documentary, Rebecca enjoying "Somewhere Beyond the Sea" by TJ Klune (the sequel to a Season Zero hyperfixation, "The House in the Cerulean Sea"), and Rachel discovering an amazing TV channel called Mech+ which appears to only show reruns of Robot Wars and it turns out we're all very here for that.

This season, Andrew and Amrita continue to explore new ways to connect, build family, and live together. Today we speak with writer (and food entrepreneur) Lola Milholland, who has a new book out called "Group Living and Other Recipes" -- a hilarious and profound memoir on communal living experiments. How can we make our home lives more expansive and imaginative? Can our living setups support deeper connection with our friends and our communities? If you've ever fantasized about a "Golden Girls" style setup with your BFFs...this is required listening. [And if you've never thought it could be done IRL, then that goes double!]   p.s. Lola was an early guest in "Season Zero" of the pod back in 2018 - here's that episode

On today's episode, Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab unpack one big question for every AFC team heading into the 2024 NFL season.

Show NotesJohn Urry's The Tourist GazePhotographyThe SensesSurveillance and Artificial Intelligence (AI)SpectacleHomeworkTranscriptWelcome friends to Season Zero of the End of Tourism podcast. In these mini-episodes, you'll hear short transmissions speaking to the principles of the pod. We'll introduce you, our listeners, to the themes and questions that will be woven into our conversations, a kind of primer on our politics. This episode is entitled "Spectacle, the Senses and Surveillance." [00:00:31] So we can't talk about tourism without talking about the senses without talking about spectacle and without talking about surveillance. How do people come to perceive new worlds, sensually? How do we smell, taste, touch, hear, and see in foreign lands? And how did tourism become such a spectacle, driven incessantly by cameras, vision, and consumption? How is it that our movements feed surveillance states and surveillance societies? [00:01:09] The English sociologist, John Urry coined the phrase, "the tourist gaze." His work dove into the worlds and ways in which tourists see in foreign lands, the way they look, observe, and watch local people, the way they watch local places themselves, and even each other.[00:01:32]Modern people move with their eyes. We have become intensely visual beings. Some would even say that we are hypnotized by the eyes. On average, the other senses amount for a combined 15% of our perception. But not every culture carries this sensorial imbalance like we do. In other words, this way of perceiving the world is not natural, but cultural.[00:02:03]This is not only what tourists bring to other worlds, but how they arrive in them, how they understand or more often misunderstand other cultures, people and places, through this hypnosis. Western worldviews reflect the images that Western people have their travels. None of this is new. Since the Renaissance, travel writing, manufactured the image of the world for those back home. Before photography, travel writing was the only way to explain to the masses how far off lands appeared.[00:02:43] Each traveling author, each trip reflected the histories and power dynamics and prejudices of the time. Today, the same thing happens with photography and with social media. On the podcast, we will look deeply into the stereoscope of media, both past and present to understand these unseen consequences. [00:03:08] Today, it seems that Urry's "tourist gaze" is intimately hitched to the camera and to photography. Photography has been a part of travel and tourism since the first cameras in the mid-19th century. Today, however, with the inundation of smartphones and wifi worldwide, the amount of photos taken is astronomical. The total number of photos ever taken has doubled in the span of just a few years. [00:03:36] Of course, this has its consequence in the world and especially in the places, tourists, visit. The smartphone with the capacity to connect to the internet almost anywhere is the most dangerous and effective Trojan horse of globalization. If there was ever a way to attack or subvert traditional culture and culture itself, the smartphone, the handset of modernity, is it. It bypasses barriers that might otherwise shield people from the consequences of foreign entitlement. As soon as it has a foothold, it converts local people faster than any missionary would.[00:04:19]The relationships that exist in could exist between our human sensing and the natural or more-than-human world is a kind of birthright. We might even call it a birth-responsibility, but today they are often ignored and neglected in favor of technology. The senses themselves are dulled to the point where we require more technology simply in order to get by in our day-to-day lives. [00:04:47] As the senses whither, so does the wonder and wisdom and the kinship with the local world that our ancestors apprenticed and entrusted to us. In turn, our senses are outsourced to higher resolutions and more megapixels. They are outsourced to the cloud. We must ask, then, what are the consequences for having neglected those relationships, for having forgotten that wisdom? What happens to the more-than-human worlds in our midst as a result?[00:05:23] What do they imagine us to be doing as we abandon them and the ancestors among us who might've honored, such senses, such sensing, deepening our ancient inheritance. [00:05:35]You see, this is what tourism does. Sometimes, people travel only to take photos that have already been taken millions of times. Tourists desire to carve out the meaningless notches on their belt, drawing more and more attention to the slow destruction of the very thing they photograph, now reduced to nothing more than a photo or a photo op.[00:06:03]Each photo, each location, each reaction, like, in commentary is recorded and funneled into an artificial intelligence underground, where it is converted into ways of both reducing and controlling our attention. This is what sends thousands, if not millions of people to foreign destinations as hunters of experience and pseudo-status.[00:06:30]The attention economy feeds tourism and tourism undoes everything that makes a place itself. Overtouristed cities are already implementing Machiavellian panopticons, the all seeing eyes of local governments. They are using over tourism itself as a pretext to install surveillance programs that track every movement in and out of these places. Entire cities and entire populations. This is already well underway in places like Venice, Italy. [00:07:07] Likewise, governments and industry are already launching digital travel passports that will not only contain all government-related documents, but act as "surveillance by design" tracking devices. The data can then be evaluated in order to privilege certain travelers over others, not unlike what is being done in China right now with the social credit and rating system there. In every way, shape, and form tourism feeds the dream-slash-nightmare of a totalitarian world. [00:07:43] It seems to me that in the west almost no one is not a tourist. Let me say that again. It seems to me that in the west, almost everyone is a tourist. Almost everyone is a tourist, which is to say that we have become amateurs and strangers in our own neighborhoods, in part, because the spectacle of modern life and its media has ennobled a way of being in the world and in the neighborhood that is both temporary and seemingly inconsequential.[00:08:17] The way we see in foreign lands comes from the way we see at home. We don't arrive in destinations as tourists. We leave home as tourists. This comes from home being understood and known, in our time, as an option, as a feeling, and even as a photo op. When home is no longer a place, when home becomes a choice or a potential "base," the responsibility of place is left in the hands of governments, usually to be sold off to the highest bidder. [00:08:58] Home is hit with a wave of consequences, not unlike the places tourists go to visit and often for the same reasons. For our listeners, this might sound dreary, lamentable, and even over the top, but consider that if this arises for you in these ways, it might do so as a result of these things arriving mostly unconsidered. [00:09:25] These are dangerous times and to be properly in them to find ourselves as faithful witnesses to the times, will likely ask more than we're willing and to give. That's okay too, and probably expected.[00:09:40] This is both strange and mandatory because the times we're living in have been abandoned by a touristic mindset. For many, the old, week-long vacation has now become a lifelong lifestyle choice. Wanderlust, in other words. Not just escape, but socially legislated abandonment. [00:10:03]Spectacle that conceals the wilting of the senses. Spectacle that conceals the rise of surveillance societies. Spectacle, that we will approach these conversations in a way that, all willing, subverts spectacle. Finding worthy resistance strategies, staying home and standing in solidarity with touristed places and peoples so that we may find a worthy way to bury spectacle. Welcome to the end of tourism.

Season Zero #0.3 | Expectation and Entitlement In this mini-episode, I speak about the expectation and entitlement that follows tourists into foreign lands, how it becomes embedded into the minds and places of tourists' hosts, and how the tourism industry encourages all of this. The consequences of this are deep and dire and almost always ensure that any remaining sense of hospitality among locals or tourists alike is turned into hostility.

Hello friends! Transcript of this episode is at 90milesfromneedles.com In this Season Zero short episode, Chris and Alicia discuss the commonly shared urban legend that Joshua trees are not really trees. This is a topic that has gotten on Chris's nerves before. Spoiler: They're trees. Chris cites a biologist on Twitter with a handy definition of tree. Here's the guy. Thanks, Tom. With regard to whether the trees are one or two species, or members of what family? Here's something Chris wrote a while back. Since then, the US Fish and Wildlife Service has decided to treat the trees as belonging to two species: Yucca brevifolia for the western trees (closest to LA) and Yucca jaegeriana for the eastern trees (closest to Las Vegas.) Finally, the teaser reference to "touching Joshua trees" is inspired by a different bit of folklore spread on social media that touching Joshua trees is both illegal and harmful to the tree. To which we would reply that if you can't touch a tree without harming it or breaking the law, you need to rethink the way you are living your life. The trees do have weaker branches than hardwoods and such, though, so lay off with the climbing and hammock-hanging. Thanks for listening! We're really looking forward to our formal launch in January. Support our show!: https://90milesfromneedles.com/patreon See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

JP Castlin on Complexity, what it means for your business, and how to deal with it via safe-to-fail experimentation. Originally planned to be Episode 1 of Season 1 (as per audio), becomes S02e02 because we now have 2 full intro episodes and can't have Episode 0 or Season Zero on the podcast platforms.

Finally, after one year in lockdown, Jason and his home group were able to get together in person (fully vaccinated) and play the entirety of Pandemic Legacy, Season Zero! This podcast will introduce the basic game for the first few minutes. Then we jump in after certain markers to debrief about the game without major spoilers (maybe some minor ones referencing only gameplay elements). __________________________________ YouTube - www.youtube.com/onestopcoopshop www.youtube.com/channel/UCPCIkULbgzMEW612cSdUX7Q Discord - discord.gg/p4jX8AF Facebook - www.facebook.com/onestopcoopshop Donate to One Stop Co-op Shop - www.patreon.com/onestop Email - onestopcoopshop@gmail.com

The Crew of the Wayfarer has made their mark on Omega Star 7. The Notorious Space Pirate Vax Arden has been captured and locked away in the Exodus Mining Colony. While all this is happening, a duo of Bounty Hunters, Slip and Sol, bite off more than they can chew when they pick up a scrapper named Trae in "The Rift" only days before the Collector decimates the population of Habitat Alpha B9. Where oh where will these Wild, Wild Stars Take them? Find out August 24th, 2021. A Note to Listeners: The first season (now "Season Zero") of Omega Star 7 was equal parts actual play using the Genesys Roleplay System from Fantasy Flight Games, and Audio Drama. The Reboot has made the shift into a full improvised audio drama format. While you are encouraged to go back and listen to Season Zero, it is not required for the Reboot as the events of the Season Zero's Actual Play will be explained throughout the course of the Rebooted Season One.

We haven't watched a Nicolas Winding Refn film since Season Zero—our very first episode was Bronson. Our conversation (featuring guest hosts Bird and Alicia of New Hampshire) on The Neon Demon was every bit as contentious and illuminating as the chat that began this show.

Ep0.7 It's the finale. The coup de grace. The end of an era. Season Zero wraps as our heroes rush to escape a burning Macy's and figure out what is causing all the trouble at The Mall Of America. Character arcs are finished, friends are made, and someone does not leave the mall, but that guy didn't matter much.  Theme: You Are a Monster by Monroeville Music Center Music: After Party by Loyalty Free Music Obtained through: Free Music Archive

An Article on Medium back in Fall 2019 motivated me to create the Dare Real Agile Podcast. The Internet Blogosphere is already full on crap of article about lean and agile that misled the commun value of the agile movement.   I don't think we needed Hanna Thomas Lame article about gender power into our agile revolution that is already hard to promote. After a year of practice with the Season Zero, here's our Episode 1 in honour of the motivation! Could we be more positive and inspiring? Could we stop using divisive speech using race, gender and so on baiting? Agility is FOR All! Agile isn't a gender or a social scheme,  it's an open social revolution, a conscious enhancement of our way to work together with a smarter and better experience. Agile is FOR Humanity and especially enhancing humanity above these dividing speech like Hannah's article shared here.

A lot of the content in this episode is outdated and the facts presented may have changed. We sincerely apologize for the delay...but it will probably happen again. ~The HYG CrewAt the time of recording this episode (05.28.20), most people had been quarantined for at least a solid month. During this time, a lot of us have turned to our streaming services to self soothe...Netflix, HULU, Shutter, and so on have been our go-to. As mentioned in previous episodes, pandemic type movies have hit another wave of popularity...which makes sense. By showing such real-world experiences, like epidemics/outbreaks, within the confines of a story, it makes it easier for people to absorb and explore the “what-ifs” of the situation while sitting in the safety of their living room. By giving such stories a beginning, middle, and end, it gives people the feeling that the real crisis will also have an eventual ending.But...there’s another major genre many people are re-visiting.So, COVID-19...we know it ends either in death or recovery...but let’s suspend disbelief, and introduce the Zed word. Zombie outbreaks have similar starts and causes vary. Sometimes origins are wildly fictional. Other times the source of a zombie apocalypse is unknown. Whether vir or aiborne, what happens if the next big pandemic creates a league of the undead? How will our government react? Do you think you could survive?Fact is, zombies don’t exist...at least not yet...so then why are they so popular? Fear films have used zombies as metaphors for much deeper fears held by society for decades and decades. Fear of primitive or dissimilar cultures, Communism, Atomic destruction, mass contagion.However, it's our perpetual fear of one another as a civilization which seems to present the biggest hurdle. A society set in the ways of an outdated idealogy, a lopsided judicial system and corrupt institutional structuring and if present day happenings don't have you convinced I'm sure nothing will.In this episode, we’ll be exploring these and other questions as we go through some zombie flicks we kinda remember. I’m Marty, welcome to another fucking podcast!Today, I am joined once again by Marc, Ernest, Andrew, and the ever reluctant, Naomi. So, thanks for tuning in…sit back, relax, and “Enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think…”**All original music in this episode created by Rene Rendon except "Goodbye Horses" written by Q Lazzarus.***All Sound Clips and music courtesy of a bunch of other people's hard work and used for mildly entertaining emphasis.

Welcome to New Republic Radio!This story arc is part of the four-arc Season Zero – a group of adventures set during important events after Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, intended to help bridge the gap between the original trilogy and the events of this show, which occur around the same time as The Mandalorian.Each month will feature a new story arc with new players on worlds all across the Galaxy, some familiar and some never-before-seen.Our third Season Zero story arc, THE LAST RIDE OF BUTTER BISCUIT, centers on a dangerous mission on the edge of known space that can only be pulled off by the most reckless, heroic, and pedantic Galactic fugitives: the crew of Butter Biscuit. If these ex-Imperials-turned-freedom fighters are successful, they will be released from New Republic imprisonment and given a head start again. If not, their rap sheets won't matter anyway...THE LAST RIDE OF BUTTER BISCUIT features the following performers:Bek’rim [Last name REDACTED] is performed by Peter Rusk, who can be found on Twitter @prusk4.Dr. Faran Thiel is performed by Cody Raasch, who can be found on Twitter @CodyRaasch.____________________________________________We have a Patreon!
