Głównym tematem tego wydania jest obszerna recenzja i dyskusja wokół gry Gothic: Remake. Prowadzący zestawiają ze sobą dwie skrajne perspektywy: psychofana, który spędził lata z oryginałem i modyfikacjami, oraz gracza, który pierwotnie odbił się od wersji z 2001 roku. W programie omawiane są również inne, nieco bardziej niszowe czerwcowe nowości – gra RPG w klimacie Pokemonów o nazwie Voidling Bound oraz brutalny, fizyczny indyk Fatekeeper. Na koniec prowadzący zdradzają, co przygotowali w najnowszym odcinku podcastu GnM Plus (gdzie m.in. analizują wewnętrzny chaos i dramaty w studiu Xbox).Czasówka:[00:01] – Intro audycji „Gramy na Maxa”. [01:10] – Powitanie słuchaczy, przedstawienie ekipy i zapowiedź głównego tematu (Gothic: Remake). [02:25] – Ciekawostka o nowej „FIFIE” dostępnej w ramach abonamentu platformy Netflix.

[15:52] – Zapowiedź i kulisy nowego odcinka podcastu GNM Plus (dyskusja o problemach i wojnie wewnętrznej w Microsofcie/Xboxie, zamykaniu studiów oraz losach marek takich jak Hellblade/Senua). [19:33] – Recenzja gry Fatekeeper (Early Access) – omówienie niszowego, brutalnego tytułu FPP z naciskiem na fizykę i interakcję z otoczeniem. Plusy, minusy, błędy techniczne oraz porada dotycząca crashów gry. [29:58] – Przerwa muzyczna (Klimatyczny motyw muzyczny z Gothica). [30:39] – GŁÓWNY TEMAT: Dlaczego warto zagrać w Gothic: Remake? [30:57] – Perspektywa wieloletniego fana serii i twórcy modyfikacji. [31:50] – Perspektywa osoby, która odbiła się od oryginału z 2001 roku.

[35:57] – Zarys fabularny świata przedstawionego (Magiczna Bariera, Kolonia Karna, pozyskiwanie rudy). [38:41] – Elementy immersji: brak współczesnych ułatwień, brak klasycznych znaczników misji i nawigacja po mapie. [41:46] – Porównanie zmian i nowości względem oryginału, wierność wizji fanów.

Many words that sound negative, intimidating, or even insulting have evolved to take on positive meanings when used in everyday conversation. Terms like awesome, savage, badass, and wicked are often used to praise someone's talent, confidence, creativity, or achievements rather than criticize them.

This week we are being menaced by assassins and finding out we're not the only Slayer while we discuss “What's My Line? Part 1”! We're talking being attacked by bad accents, our theory about why everyone is pissy in this episode, the “I like shrubs” checkbox, Buffy and Drusilla having a legendary Pout-Off, the dreaded Chiseler, and Angel pulling a Mulder and shouting “BUFFAY!” We think it's cute that Spike and Drusilla paint each other's nails, laugh at how Angel can't bust out of a $10 padlock, point out that the dialect coach is probably the monster of the week, and celebrate the one and only Howie episode we'll get this series. What exactly does it take to get power-freaked?Send us an email at sunnydalenationpod@gmail.com or follow us on Instagram!

What's really stopping you from achieving the goals you set at the beginning of the year?In today's episode of The BraveHearted Woman Podcast, I'm having a real and honest conversation with midlife women who are tired of starting over, shrinking back, or watching their dreams sit untouched. As we move through the year, it's time to ask yourself: Are you truly becoming the woman you said you wanted to be?I break down the three major reasons discipline fails: self-doubt, lack of vision clarity, and weak commitment, and share practical mindset shifts to help you stop self-sabotaging and start following through. We'll talk about identity-based habits, overcoming fear and excuses, creating a compelling vision for your future, and building the kind of self-respect that fuels lasting transformation.If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, inconsistent, or unsure if it's too late for you, this episode will remind you that your dreams still matter. Midlife is not your ending, it's your invitation to rise, get intentional, and live with bold purpose. This is your time to reignite your confidence, reclaim your voice, and courageously pursue the life you were created for.Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:15 - How to be the woman you want to become3:38 - Why discipline fails4:37 - Reason #1: You Don't Fully Believe in Yourself7:51 - Reason #2: Your Vision Isn't Clear Enough12:39 - Reason #3: You Haven't Made a Firm Commitment Yet14:05 - How to stay disciplined and follow through16:16 - How to take actionQuotations:“Don't just think of it as something that you do, but think of it as something that you are.”“You don't get to complain about what you tolerate.”“Find a vision so compelling that it imposes a self-discipline on you.”“You've got wishbone, but you don't have any backbone.”“Slay your fear.

“You don't have the cards!” This week we deep dive the cyberpunk productivity app roguelike deckbuilder hybrid that our very own co-host Will has been developing since 2018! A unique spin on gamification apps, Hard Reset asks the ever-important question of: “what if we made the game part actually fun?” The capitalist oligarchs have taken over and you must stop them by upgrading your cybernetics as provided by a mysterious benefactor. Fight through mutant-filled cyber slums with the help of rocket arms, irradiation blasters, and a helpful hand or two. But don't skimp on those tasks to practice your cello or take out the garbage!

Accidents happen. Some are worse than others. For a creative, a total computer crash is not great—especially when under a heavy deadline. Scott & A talk about how we dealt with it during the final weeks of Scott's active deadline for SLAY. What plans and procedures did we already have in place that let us keep writing? What did we miss that hurt us? What should you do to protect your priceless work? Pro tip: no matter how you back up — be sure to back up. Even just a flash drive separate from your computer can help. — Slices is created by Scott Sigler and A B Kovacs — Produced by Steve Riekeberg — Production Assistance by Allie Press — Copyright 2026 by Empty Set Entertainment Never give up, never surrender And never spill coffee on your laptop if you can help it.

Alycia Anderson shares an update after a recent medical scare and is interviewed by her sister Corinna from the Slay & Pray podcast. After years without major interventions but with extensive internal reconstruction from her disability, Alycia developed severe abdominal pain and vomiting after eating a large carrot and went to the ER, where a CT scan showed an intestinal obstruction. She was admitted for four days with an NG tube to decompress her stomach, hoping to avoid risky surgery due to prior abdominal operations and scar tissue; her bowels eventually resumed function and the tube was removed. The conversation covers fear, family trauma, accepting support from Marty, Regina, and niece Ella, vulnerability about “invisible” disability issues, postponing work as an entrepreneur, and committing to slower living, dietary changes, and prioritizing health and family.

The conversation is changing.In this episode of Slay, Olympian and CEO Louise Hazel breaks down:• Why Hailey Bieber's comments matter• The truth about “toning”• Why women NEED muscle• The difference between Pilates and strength training• The dangerous side of the GLP-1 era• Why muscle is the new status symbol in women's wellness• And why strength may be the key to better hormones, metabolism, confidence, and longevityThis isn't about attacking Pilates.It's about asking a much bigger question:What if women stopped chasing smaller bodies… and started building stronger ones instead?If this episode resonated with you, share it with another woman who needs to hear this.

Tonight on GeekNights, we consider games where the numbers go up. Like Balatro or Slay the Spire or 9 Kings or Vampire Survivors. These games might intersect with deeper societal problems related to the signifier and the signified and the trap of hyperreality. In the news, the NAACP calls for a boycott of southern public school athletics due to their extreme gutting of voting rights, Ferrari launches the Luce, and nobody is booking rooms for the World Cup.Related LinksForum ThreadGames where the numbers go upDiscord ChatGames where the numbers go upBluesky PostGames where the numbers go upThings of the DayRym - Otakon 08 Geeknights promoScott - Sales & Dungeons
The U.S. State Department reached a new settlement committing to strictly enforce the Taylor Force Act, a measure Congress first passed in 2018, which bans U.S. economic aid to the Palestinian Authority until they end their "pay-for-slay" policies that compensate imprisoned terrorists or their families. The Palestinian Authority "Pay-for-Slay" policy gained wide public attention when Taylor Force, a West Point graduate who served in Afghanistan and Iraq, was savagely knifed to death by a Palestinian terrorist on March 8, 2016, while on a tour of Israel. This new settlement is to remain in effect for 10 years. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Stuart Force, father of Taylor Force, who says his son would be proud of the efforts to stop American taxpayer money from getting to terrorists.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner is a profoundly disturbed individual whom Democrats refuse to disavow because they prioritize power above all else. Platner, who's a self-described Communist, trashes American troops and police and he must be stopped from reaching the Senate. Then there's a woman running in the Democrat primary for Texas's 35th congressional district who advocated placing Zionists in concentration camps and worse. Jewish elected Democrats need to leave this party, which is now the party of Islamists, Marxists, and neo-Nazis. Also, WABC's John Catsimatidis calls in to discuss the difficulties of running supermarkets in NYC and the proposal by Mayor Mamdani for city government-run grocery stores. He argued that government stores giving away these products would take sales from private businesses, harming the workers who labor 70-80 hours a week and ultimately burdening taxpayers when the city absorbs the losses, while politicians face no consequences. Later, Gad Saad calls in to discuss his new book - Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind. This book is not an attack on empathy itself—an evolutionarily relevant virtue rooted in theory of mind or cognitive empathy that enables good human interactions—but rather a warning against its hyper-firing in the wrong situations toward the wrong targets. This critique of maladaptively irrational altruism has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. Afterward, America First Legal (AFL) and the Trump Administration secured a major victory for peace and the rule of law by settling Jackson et al. v. Trump et al., a lawsuit that enforces the Taylor Force Act and ends U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority's “Pay to Slay” program. This agreement is a durable enforcement of federal law that honors victims, prevents taxpayer subsidization of terror, and advances President Trump's commitment to peace.

Michelle will own that she is so over-the-moon excited for her guest today - lovingly called The Funniest Person On Earth - her ADHD takes over and she literally can't shut the f**k up. Yes, folks, MAMRIE HART from the This Might Get Weird podcast joins us in the world's coldest studio for an hour of literal guffaws amongst friends. On the non-exisent outline: Hairless dogs gone wild, Hollywood auditions gone horribly RIGHT, and anticipation for this week's Survivor finale (no spoilers!) that pose an American History X conundrum we truly hate. Most of the episode is spent recapping their Mother's Day Brunch from Heaven/Hell, where meals never get made and cars possibly towed, while Mich works on her Rosie Perez impression in real time.
