John's monologue focuses on the White House declared a “Crime Emergency” in the District of Columbia and ordered the mobilization of National Guard soldiers to take over the policing of the nation's capital. He also talks about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth who says he's proud to be part of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, an archconservative network of Christian congregations. Hegseth recently made headlines when he shared a CNN video on social media about CREC, showing its pastors arguing women should not have the right to vote. He then interviews Deborah Mucarsel-Powell who is an American politician and former academic administrator who served as the U.S. Representative for Florida's 26th congressional district from 2019 to 2021. Mucarsel-Powell was the first Ecuadorian-American and first South American-born immigrant to serve as a member of congress. In 2024 she went up against Rick Scott to represent Florida in the Senate. They discuss the D.C. Takeovers, AI videos, and all the other myriad ways the Trump administration is trying to shift attention and concern away from the Epstein Files. And winding it up, John chats with comedian Rhonda Hansome and listeners about trending topics and current politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Kon-Tiki expedition, led by Norwegian explorer and ethnologist Thor Heyerdahl, reached Raroia in the Tuamotu Archipelag near Tahiti, on 7th August, 1947. The 45-foot-long balsa wood raft, with a five-man crew, had completed a 4,300-mile, 101-day journey from Peru. Heyerdahl wanted to prove his (now discredited) theory that prehistoric South Americans could have colonized the Polynesian islands by drifting on ocean currents. The Kon-Tiki was made of indigenous materials and designed to resemble rafts of early South American Indians, although the expedition carried some modern equipment, such as a radio, watches, charts, sextant, and metal knives. While crossing the Pacific, the sailors encountered storms, sharks and whales. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why Heyerdahl's hypothesis of a South American origin of the Polynesian peoples is rejected today; marvel at his bold use of eye-catching graphic design; and expose how the crew's food rations weren't all that they seemed… Further Reading: • ‘New proof for Kon-Tiki theory' (The Guardian, 1953): https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2018/may/18/new-kon-tiki-proof-expedition-archive-1953 • ‘How the Voyage of the Kon-Tiki Misled the World About Navigating the Pacific' (Smithsonian Magazine, 2014): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-institution/how-voyage-kon-tiki-misled-world-about-navigating-pacific-180952478/ • ‘KonTiki (short)' (The Kon-Tiki Museum, 1951): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFcW-dCvO2A This episode first aired in 2021 Love the show?

In this Metabolic Classroom, Ben explores the fascinating metabolic effects of yerba mate, a traditional South American tea that's gaining attention in scientific circles. Yerba mate contains a synergistic mix of bioactive compounds, including xanthines (like caffeine), chlorogenic acid, and saponins—all of which contribute to its wide-ranging health benefits. Dr. Bikman explains how this unique brew supports fat loss, improves mitochondrial efficiency, regulates appetite, and enhances insulin sensitivity.Drawing from human and rodent studies, the lecture highlights yerba mate's ability to increase fat oxidation, particularly when combined with exercise. It also activates AMPK, a critical energy-regulating enzyme, which promotes glucose uptake and mitochondrial biogenesis. One of the most intriguing effects of yerba mate is its stimulation of GLP-1—both directly through the gut and indirectly by modifying the gut microbiome—making it a natural, non-pharmaceutical way to enhance satiety and insulin regulation.Dr. Bikman also discusses the underappreciated role of bitter taste receptors in the body—not just on the tongue, but also in fat cells and the gut. Yerba mate interacts with these receptors to influence hormone release (like CCK and PYY) and to promote thermogenesis in brown and beige fat, offering yet another pathway for metabolic support. Finally, he shares unpublished findings from his lab showing yerba mate's impact on hepatic redox balance, adding to its reputation as a powerful metabolic ally.Ben's favorite yerba mate and fiber supplement: https://ufeelgreat.com/usa/en/c/1BA884 Hosted on Acast.

The Medellin Cartel rose in the 1980s by flooding the United States with cocaine, providing dope to dance floors in Miami all the way to crack houses in Los Angeles. Forbes magazine once estimated the tidal wave of powder made the cartel's top trafficker Pablo Escobar $9 billion and its No. 2, Carlos Lehder, another $2.7 billion. While these numbers are likely major over-estimates of how much individual narcos actually keep, the cocaine trade certainly served up billions of dollars to Colombia, fueling an armed conflict involving the cartels, army, leftist guerillas and right wing paramilitaries that tore the South American nation apart and left a lot of families weeping. Escobar gained an infamy alongside Al Capone and later El Chapo as the most well-known mobsters of all time. But Lehder was also a fascinating character. He personally piloted planes and had his own private island in The Bahamas, which he used as a trampoline to bounce blow state side. The son of a German, he was portrayed by Netflix Narcos with a swastika tattoo as a Neo-Nazi narco. And he went on to become the star witness against the Panamanian dictator General Noriega, who was a CIA agent and an ally of Medellin Cartel before the U.S. invasion of Panama took him down in 1989. So when I recently got a message that I would have a chance to interview Lehder, who is now free and back in Colombia after a 33-year stint in prison, I scrambled to get there as quick as I could. The man I discovered was more humble and less boastful than you might expect, but then decades in a cell including four years in solitary, changes you. He has written a memoir of “Life and Death of the Medellin Cartel,” which you can find here and provides a revealing first-hand account to understand the period. We spoke for hours in what I believe is Carlos' first English language interview. He goes into fascinating details about how the Medellin Cartel really functioned, its relationship with guerillas and paramilitaries, and how they owned governments and supplied the U.S.-backed Contra rebels. He also gets personal about what years in solitary does to your brain. I'm proud to say this episode show cases an important testimony that helps understand the history of the eighties in the Americas, while its also intriguing to see the man behind the myth. Get your tea or beer, zap it on and soak it up.For more information and to support, go to www.crashoutmedia.com Support the show

With thousands of submissions to be a part of the NAHREP's Top list, only 250 can make it. I'm proud to say that I have three lovely estrellas who made this list: Iris Lobo, Sandra Juliano, and Jennifer Price, who are chatting with me in this episode. Grab your cafecitos and join us in this conversation to hear their stories of resilience, reinvention, and purpose-driven leadership in real estate to empower you to shine in your own lane. Meet the Leaders Iris Lobo, REALTOR® and Team Leader, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Ambassador Real Estate, iris.lobo@bhhsamb.com. Sandra Juliano – REALTOR®, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices New England Properties, SandraJuliano@bhhsne.com. Jennifer Price – REALTOR®, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices EWM Realty, in Florida, jennifer@jenniferpricegroup.com. Estrellas' Backgrounds & Markets Each of my guests discussed what made them choose real estate as their profession. Sandra started within the New York City market through a mix of professional and personal transitions. The median home price in her market is around $1.2 million. Sandra's clientele often includes professionals with connections to NYC and corporations in the area. Iris Lobo leads the Spanish-speaking team in Omaha, Nebraska, and also serves the Council Bluffs, Iowa, area. She and her team focus on empowering Latino families, with typical home values ranging from $250,000 to $350,000. Jennifer Price serves Miami and South Florida, specializing in multicultural and multilingual clients. Fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, she particularly serves the Brazilian and South American communities. Achievements & Honors Each estrella reflects on the immense honor and significance of being named among NAHREP's Top 250 Latino real estate agents. The accolade is highly competitive and acknowledges excellence and impact in service to the community. They also explore how their heritage and upbringing have shaped their drive and ambitions, ultimately leading them to where they are today. Bold Moves & Defining Moments After losing her corporate job, Jennifer chose not to succumb to fear and decided to reinvent herself. She trusted her instincts and pursued what truly made her happy. She believed in herself, didn't let fear get in the way, and attributes her success to that defining moment of self-belief and action. Sandra's difficult moment came when she was at a local park and someone assumed that she was her son's nanny due to her looks and told her something unsettling. Rather than letting this discourage her, Sandra used it as fuel to prove them wrong and succeed in real estate. That experience solidified her determination and drive. Early in Iris's career, she felt unsupported even by those closest to her. This made her doubt her potential for success. However, real, meaningful connections with clients and discovering her true passion for helping others through homeownership helped her push past the urge to quit. Adapting to Industry Change With the rise of AI technology, each of my guests shares how they're adapting to its use in real estate. Jennifer shares how she utilizes ChatGPT as a powerful ally and emphasizes the importance of authenticity on social media. Sandra discusses how she understands that it's best for her to turn her social media channels over to a trusted specialist. Doing so allows her to extend her reach in more meaningful ways and make her brand more connected to the community. Iris mentions feeding her values and information into AI tools to make sure her content maintains her authentic voice. For her team, tech solutions are customized to match their unique blend of faith, culture, and strategy. Podcasts, Life Lessons, & Quotes Jennifer: Shared Maya Angelou's wisdom, “People will never forget how you made them feel,” emphasizing the lasting value of showing care and positivity. Iris: Quoted Luke 1:37, “Faith doesn't make things easy; it makes them possible,” highlighting the sustaining power of faith in hard times. Sandra: Recommended the podcast “You're Dead To Me,” for its engaging, comedic takes on history—especially stories of women's strength and resilience. When you help another woman rise, we all shine. And that's how we make an impact. So, let's build each other up and shine brighter than the sun.

I’m still on Zenla’s on zero with its update of an update of its own (0:05:01) Kev: The 2.1 patch or whatever number it’s it’s one of the bigger numbered patches which (0:05:07) Kev: Implies a story content update a new chapter in their story (0:05:13) Kev: Now unfortunately, I think Zenla’s on zero (0:05:16) Kev: Continues to suffer from a sort of identity crisis. I’ve talked about it (0:05:22) Kev: Before but when the game first came out. It was a very (0:05:25) Kev: Lack of better way of describing it mid 2000s urban vibe (0:05:30) Kev: big metropolitan city is the setting and people have flip phones and their CRTs (0:05:35) Kev: hanging about and video rentals a very specific aesthetic they were going for (0:05:41) Kev: and it worked for me right clearly up to taste if you know the player enjoyed it (0:05:46) Kev: or not but it worked and they they wrote that aesthetic with a with a solid (0:05:53) Kev: playing game plan and story for a year right there were hackers and kind of this (0:05:58) Kev: mystery to explore. (0:06:00) Kev: And, uh, but yeah, as they hit the end of year one, they kind of wrapped up a lot of (0:06:06) Kev: those storylines and threads, um, and I, I feel like they continue to struggle a bit (0:06:13) Kev: to follow that up, uh, for lack of better way of describing it. (0:06:18) Kev: Think of post-Endgame MCU, where it’s a little, suffering a little in its identity, I’m not (0:06:24) Kev: sure where to go. (0:06:26) Kev: And now this may just be a me thing because there are (0:06:30) Kev: leaning into this kind of like they’ve gone from this urban city to now we’re (0:06:35) Kev: out in rural not China where the the former hackers I mean they still are I (0:06:41) Kev: guess technically but they are now living at a temple because trying to keep (0:06:46) Kev: them on mystics with a bunch of monks which is a wild pivot from the more much (0:06:52) Kev: more science fiction heavy aesthetic and genre that they’re kind of leaning into (0:06:58) Kev: and then now we’re going into a bit of mysticism with (0:07:01) Kev: feng shui and energy lines and all that good stuff (0:07:05) Kev: So yeah, this may be an issue of just stuff getting lost in translation (0:07:10) Kev: You know mihoyo is a Chinese company and you know this may be (0:07:14) Kev: For that that target audience. I don’t know (0:07:18) Kev: And it doesn’t help that the cast did all the new characters that have been out since (0:07:23) Kev: 2.0, which is about a month or two ago (0:07:26) Kev: They this new cast has just not hit (0:07:30) Kev: I don’t find them as entertaining or engaging (0:07:34) Kev: Which isn’t entirely a bad thing (0:07:37) Kev: And this isn’t just the pullable characters even a lot of NPCs. They’re just not as memorable in my opinion (0:07:44) Kev: But the the pullable the playable characters (0:07:47) Kev: yeah, I don’t I pulled for one in the (0:07:51) Kev: Four three or four that have come out since then (0:07:54) Kev: Which isn’t entirely bad thing because that means I can now save up on resources for when stuff (0:07:58) Kev: I do want will drop and (0:08:00) Kev: And that will happen again. We’ve in true mohoyo fashion. They they tease upcoming characters (0:08:08) Kev: Not just in the marketing, but in in the gameplay you’ll you’ll meet some of them who are clearly like up (0:08:12) Kev: Here’s your next banner character or a couple banners away (0:08:16) Kev: In particular there’s a group called the obol squad they’re like a military Defense Force unit (0:08:23) Kev: and (0:08:24) Kev: Those guys have some cool designs (0:08:26) Kev: We’ve already gotten a few out in ZZZ, but the looks like we’re gonna fill out (0:08:30) Kev: the rest of that roster and I’m looking forward to those guys there’s a there’s (0:08:35) Kev: like a big Mecca guy that’s piloted by a little bunny robot there’s a their (0:08:41) Kev: captain has a living gun who is actually the captain I think something wild like (0:08:47) Kev: that the sniper of their unit is blind so you know there you go yeah colorful (0:08:53) Kev: colorful crew that oval squad so I’m looking forward to that but but until (0:09:00) Kev: I said ZZZ kind of kind of struggling a little with its the flavor if you will (0:09:06) Kev: um but it’s okay because the gameplay is still good even all those characters on (0:09:10) Kev: that instant come out you know they give you trials or you play with them in the (0:09:14) Kev: story or whatever they are fun mechanically gameplay wise they’re not (0:09:17) Kev: bad just yeah I’m not dying for them or anything and then the nice bit is not (0:09:25) Kev: just zenless I think all the mihoyo games they’re very strong with their side (0:09:28) Kev: content. They have lots of weird goofy modes. (0:09:30) Kev: For instance, right now they have a summer mode where you operate a seaside resort with all sorts of minigames. (0:09:37) Kev: And so you have to work to upgrade the minigames and the attractions, and that is certainly enjoyable, I’m having a blast with that little mode. (0:09:46) Kev: But yeah, that’s Endless Zone Zero, there’s my report. No one here to stop me. (0:09:52) Kev: Oh, so there you go. Now, aside from that, the other thing I want to talk about… (0:10:00) Kev: isn’t game, per se, but I’ve been watching a lot of Monk, the mid-2000s, I think it was like 2000 to 2008. (0:10:09) Kev: Detective Mystery Show, aired on USA Network, I think. It’s about Adrian Monk, a former detective on the police force whose wife was killed. (0:10:21) Kev: Which led to a dismissal, as he already had, let’s say, a lot of conditions. OCD. (0:10:30) Kev: And a lot of phobias. (0:10:32) Kev: and stuff like that well all that is amplified by his wife’s death and so now (0:10:37) Kev: he does work as a private investigator helping so helping the police just not (0:10:41) Kev: on their official payroll but but while managing all of these intense oddities (0:10:49) Kev: and quirks yeah I mean it ran for eight seasons it’s clearly a popular show and (0:10:56) Kev: you guess what lives up to it I’m a fan of detective mystery shows play a lot (0:11:02) Kev: right professor Layton you know it’s kind of in that in that lane and and the (0:11:08) Kev: mysteries themselves you know they obviously cast staff of writers so they (0:11:13) Kev: can vary right some it’s tough to write mysteries because how do you do it right (0:11:18) Kev: are you breadcrumbing the clues and it’s kind of obvious how it’s gonna go or do (0:11:24) Kev: you know is your detective so great they see something that the audience can’t (0:11:28) Kev: see or know, but they caught it and, oh, a big (0:11:32) Kev: reveal at the end. Um, so it’s hard to find a balance between there and, you know, between (0:11:37) Kev: the different episodes, uh, I think they swing both ways on this pendulum, but overall still (0:11:43) Kev: enjoyable, um, and it helps by the fact that the riding is excellent. It’s a very funny (0:11:50) Kev: show, um, as Monk has to navigate this world and the world has to navigate with Monk, supporting (0:11:57) Kev: his OCD and need to straighten and clean everything up. (0:12:02) Kev: and avoid things that are not clean or straight and orderly so it makes for (0:12:10) Kev: some very very entertaining scenarios and and monk himself is very well (0:12:16) Kev: written and enjoyable character played excellently by Tony Shalab I believe is (0:12:21) Kev: the actor’s name yeah very charming even with all his oddities and quirks very (0:12:28) Kev: Very, very funny, excellent, can’t recommend enough shocker. (0:12:32) Kev: 8 season show was popular, for a reason, so yeah, go check it out. (0:12:36) Kev: And hey, it has a great little intro theme, written and performed by Randy Newman, the Toy Story song guy you guys know what I’m talking about. (0:12:44) Kev: So that’s very catchy. (0:12:49) Kev: No, I will not sing this song right now, I’ll spare you all, for now. (0:12:55) Kev: But yeah, that’s uh, that’s some of the stuff I’ve been up to lately. (0:13:03) Kev: And so with that, let’s get, uh, let’s see what the world of video games has been up to. (0:13:10) Kev: Let’s start talking with those Xbox 9000 layoff. (0:13:14) Kev: No, no, I’m kidding, let’s stick to cottagecore stuff, as painful as it was, my heart, it goes out, my condolences to all those Xbox employees. (0:13:23) Kev: Ugh. (0:13:25) Kev: Ugh, so let’s talk about things that weren’t laid off, but in fact, the opposite, have stuff that… (0:13:32) Kev: …got launched and has, uh, updates. (0:13:36) Kev: Let’s start with, uh, Islanders. (0:13:39) Kev: Um, the Calm City Builder, uh, it has a, it’s come out with a big update, um, called Islanders New Shores. (0:13:50) Kev: You know, one of those subtitle type, uh, updates/expansions. (0:13:54) Kev: Um, this is the, yeah, city/island builder, and the new shores update. (0:14:02) Kev: Um, has, oh, it’s one of those kind of expansions, um, oh, I apologize, no, is this a sequel? (0:14:11) Kev: Oh, this is a sequel, I thought it was an expansion, oh, I’m wrong, oh, good, good for me, um, I… (0:14:26) Kev: Yeah, wow, I think this is one I just played before and said I should, I could be wrong. (0:14:31) Kev: Either way, it’s an island city builder, island/city builder. (0:14:37) Kev: A lot of the mechanics of the first game returning just, you know, bigger, better, more biomes, more options. (0:14:46) Kev: Very, very fun stuff. It does look up my alley and I might play it. (0:14:52) Kev: Kinda reminds me of the Terrenil, which is a game I still go to every now and then. (0:14:56) Kev: You can play a lot and enjoy. (0:14:58) Kev: Yeah, you’ve got lava islands, snow islands, rocky islands. (0:15:02) Kev: And you’re just building up little villages and population on these islands. (0:15:06) Kev: So yeah, very charming, very endearing. (0:15:08) Kev: Check it out. That is out already. (0:15:12) Kev: With a 60%… Oh my… Wait, is that right? (0:15:16) Kev: Hold on, is this available for $2 USD? (0:15:20) Kev: Wham! (0:15:22) Kev: Or is that part of it? (0:15:24) Kev: Oh, this is special prom- (0:15:26) Kev: Yup, wow that is lovely, yeah, very affordable game check it out. It’s on sale (0:15:36) Kev: And yeah, and they’re still gonna work on it they have a 2025 roadmap with (0:15:43) Kev: Basically a lot of the same just working and expanding very cool (0:15:48) Kev: Yeah, good for you islanders new shores (0:15:51) Kev: Great looking game. I might very likely check this out. This looks like something (0:15:56) Kev: I could use you know kind of a just pick up in and just zone out for a little bit sort of game (0:16:02) Kev: Not not heavy at all. I like it (0:16:05) Kev: All right. Let’s see here. What next um ah (0:16:10) Kev: Something that is not out, but is coming out. Let’s talk about super zoo story the I (0:16:18) Kev: Guess Star Zoo Valley you could call it. It feels what I call a star do like but set in a zoo instead of a farm (0:16:26) Kev: um (0:16:27) Kev: They came out with a big post on their Kickstarter (0:16:31) Kev: This this is a this is kind of a wild one they had to clarify their release date and development (0:16:41) Kev: Feels like an important one that probably should have been made clear, but but hey it happens (0:16:48) Kev: Basically if they they chalk it up to they you know (0:16:52) Kev: There was the text portion of the Kickstarter and then there’s graphics portions (0:16:56) Kev: on the Kickstarter and basically they just fudged up they mixed up some of (0:17:03) Kev: the dates. The true and proper release date is the graphic the shown on the (0:17:09) Kev: little timeline graphic. They are planning to release an alpha version of (0:17:14) Kev: the game in the second half of this year 2025. A beta will release in the first (0:17:18) Kev: half of 2026 with the goal of the full release in 2026 second half. (0:17:26) Kev: and from their post they describe that they feel they are on track you know (0:17:32) Kev: famous last words but hey they’re trying they kind of go over different (0:17:38) Kev: categories of stuff they’re working on (0:17:46) Kev: customization (0:17:48) Kev: They do want to launch with multiplayer in the game including minigames like a little soccer game you can play with others (0:17:54) Kev: That’s that’s fun. I don’t I don’t know how to start (0:17:57) Kev: Do you have that yet like little minigames you can actually play with people are playing on multiplayer. I don’t remember it does (0:18:04) Kev: But that’s uh, that’s fun. That’s good. Oh, so hey, but good for them. They came out trying to dress it (0:18:11) Kev: It’s we know (0:18:14) Kev: You know still waiting a year (0:18:16) Kev: I’m certainly in no rush for it. Let’s take your time. Well, I get this. I don’t know like (0:18:21) Kev: The whole relationships and you know stardew mechanic tropes like I I don’t know (0:18:27) Kev: But it’s a zoo and I really love animals. So maybe I don’t know (0:18:34) Kev: Maybe more than maybe (0:18:38) Kev: Yeah, but yeah, there’ll be plenty of time at least a year until this comes out (0:18:44) Kev: And yeah, no rush (0:18:46) Kev: By any means because there is plenty of stuff to play in the meanwhile (0:18:52) Kev: Including I transition (0:18:55) Kev: Go go town which has the fifth major update tourist trap (0:19:02) Kev: So, yeah go go town the kind of Animal Crossing gone on hyperdrive (0:19:12) Kev: Looking game as I would describe it (0:19:16) Kev: They’ve released an update called tourist trap which puts a lot of emphasis on making the village town a tourist attraction (0:19:23) Kev: So now you have lots of people coming in they have thought bubbles (0:19:27) Kev: There’s ratings on the attractions and the food and stuff like that. Yeah, you know kind of rollercoaster tycoon (0:19:34) Kev: It looks cute um with this update they’ve also introduced like new (0:19:40) Kev: categories of people that can visit aliens and robots and werewolves and all sorts of stuff (0:19:46) Kev: Which is fun and some of those characters can also become what they call townies the actual villagers (0:19:52) Kev: And then they could some structures like transit systems that introduces it a little way of doing it (0:19:58) Kev: So basically like you okay, I want the werewolf while I have to (0:20:01) Kev: Unlock the werewolf transit system and that will include a werewolf (0:20:07) Kev: Townie in your town (0:20:09) Kev: So that’s fun (0:20:11) Kev: It introduces a tier three industry. That’s kind of cool (0:20:16) Kev: a factory that leads to production of resources that leads to massive landmarks as they call it (0:20:21) Kev: a big lighthouse a stadium ooh hot springs a conservatory okay okay um yeah that’s cool (0:20:30) Kev: and oh hey yeah yum grease that’s that yum grease tm that’s (0:20:47) Kev: uh… I admire how unabashedly they are about uh… (0:20:52) Kev: the zaniness of stuff like that uh… very cool very cute (0:20:56) Kev: so yeah go go to oh yeah they have oh big one here uh… (0:21:00) Kev: uh… (0:21:01) Kev: cliff customization you know all of the new new horizons uh… (0:21:06) Kev: that’s that’s been added which includes waterfalls they also added water (0:21:18) Kev: I like that a lot, so yeah, a lot of new customization stuff, um, clowns, they can have clowns joining in the party, uh, that’s fun, you know, I admire Gogotown, they just keep going at it, and leaning into whatever it is they’re doing, kind of just over the top nonsense, and I appreciate that, I, Kevin, appreciate it over the top nonsense, shocker. (0:21:42) Kev: Um, yeah, so good for you, and again, that is our (0:21:48) Kev: party out now, uh, GOGO, see the GOGOTOWN, yeah, yeah baby, haha, um, alright, next up, uh, let’s talk about super farming boy, no, not a super meat boy expansion, sadly, or crossover, um, but it is a charming game nonetheless, it is, oh gosh, uh, we’ve, I think we’ve discussed, we, I know we’ve seen (0:22:18) Kev: it before, discussed it, but, um, they’re, they’re coming out with an early access that’s out in August 12th, this game is the using, okay, quote here from their steam page, an action puzzle farming sim featuring chain reactions and combos, which is just a wild descriptor in my opinion. (0:22:37) Kev: Um, so yeah, you play, uh, what’s, little character, uh, what is, oh gosh, I get it, oh, super farming boy gets his name. (0:22:48) Kev: It’s all in this very like, oh, comic bookie style, not exactly cop head, but very cartoony style, maybe like mid 2000s or 2010s, uh, cartoon network, like adventure times, even universe esque designs. (0:23:06) Kev: Um, yeah, you play super farming boy, his body transforms into the different tools. Um, so you just have one tool basically that just changes for the situation, which is a fun concept. (0:23:18) Kev: Very charming, vibrant art style. Um, and yeah, the chain thing is weird. Like you pull up one carrot, but it does like a grid thing that pulls all the other carrots in the same pattern nearby. (0:23:30) Kev: Um, very dynamic, very chaotic looking game. Um, but in a good way, like it’s clearly what they’re going for. So, you know, I guess that just might be a thing for days. There’s boss battle. So, you know, I think that using, using the. (0:23:50) Kev: um they have uh they have touch control that’s super cool (0:23:54) Kev: um yeah so very interesting i’ll be keeping my eye out on this um and hey (0:23:58) Kev: the hidden early access on like I said august 12th (0:24:01) Kev: um so that’s cool good for them they’re getting there uh demo is out now if you (0:24:05) Kev: want to see um look up for you super farming boy (0:24:18) Kev: Oh here’s a, you know, okay next up a game I also want to keep being themselves. (0:24:23) Kev: Fantasy Life Eye. They have hit 1.2 million copies sold. That’s a lot. Well, yeah that’s for like a (0:24:36) Kev: little over a month. That’s pretty good. They’re giving out some gift codes for (0:24:47) Kev: play fantasy life I don’t know these these might be good materials maybe not (0:24:51) Kev: there’s not a lot of them there’s like 12 no 9 there’s like three sets of one (0:24:57) Kev: two three six okay there’s 18 there’s six sets of three materials each yeah (0:25:02) Kev: I’m happy overall mostly with the number of fantasy life sold because I’m a big (0:25:10) Kev: level 5 fan and I was especially worried when they’re in North America office (0:25:14) Kev: But their they came out with this beautiful (0:25:17) Kev: And it’s it’s going strong on fantasy life seared the prequel again (0:25:21) Kev: I played the DS version a lot the DS game (0:25:25) Kev: I still play it actually I’m going through the DLC origin island (0:25:31) Kev: Kind of - when this came out it was you know, I was like, oh, I don’t want to buy it (0:25:36) Kev: But I didn’t do that DLC so I fired it up and I’ve been checking away at the DLC a little bit here and there (0:25:42) Kev: I like it. It’s good. It’s the single-player MMO (0:25:45) Kev: I don’t know if Fantasy Life Eye still follows it. (0:25:47) Kev: It still has at least a lot of that level five charm and design I still love. (0:25:53) Kev: So good for you Fantasy Life Eye. Keep keep on selling. Do another 1.2 million. (0:25:56) Kev: Yeah. All right speaking of games that sold probably at least 1.2 million. (0:26:04) Kev: I’d be shocked for anything less. Hello Kitty Island Adventure coming out with (0:26:08) Kev: another update. The Sunshine Celebration Update. Summer Vacation Festival, Tiki’s (0:26:16) Kev: Bitch (0:26:18) Kev: You know beach party type to update. It’s one of those seasonal events where hey (0:26:28) Kev: trade ’em in for new stuff, you know, new decorations and whatnot, it’s very cute. (0:26:34) Kev: It’s botsmaru, running a little juice-sticky bar. (0:26:38) Kev: Um, yeah, I like it, very cute. (0:26:42) Kev: Um, yeah, that’s uh, oh, it’s on sale right now, 25% off, get it for $30 USD, I don’t know for when, but uh, (0:26:49) Kev: but yo, check it out, it’s a good game, we talked about it on at least two episodes, and I like it. (0:26:55) Kev: Good for you, little kitty island venture. You’re a good thing. (0:26:58) Kev: That’s good. (0:27:00) Kev: Ah, you know what else is good, folks? (0:27:04) Kev: Discounty. Or more specifically, their little PR campaign they’ve done. (0:27:10) Kev: So, discounty. We have talked about it for people who may not remember. (0:27:15) Kev: You are running a convenience type store. (0:27:22) Kev: It’s like in the middle of a city, and it kind of feels like, you know, (0:27:26) Kev: just small little. (0:27:28) Kev: This is a grocery type store, um, I think the store is called ‘Discounty’. (0:27:34) Kev: Anyways they released a series of videos that they call ‘Employee Training Videos’ and these (0:27:41) Kev: videos are framed as such, you know you get little CRT scan lines and then the little (0:27:47) Kev: jingle for the business as you work for the ‘Discounty Corporation’. (0:27:51) Kev: They go over a few different mechanics, they talk about store expansion, they can buy land (0:27:58) Kev: to expand your store, excuse me. (0:28:04) Kev: Customer happiness is one. (0:28:09) Kev: Store layout and customization, I’m actually impressed by that one, there’s a wide range (0:28:13) Kev: of customization and layout options. (0:28:17) Kev: And it’s, I think that’s a, I think this is gonna be a key element in making this enjoyable (0:28:23) Kev: right because you know running a store as you know Al’s not fond of and for a lot of (0:28:28) Kev: understandable reasons right, it’s kind of maybe, as Al says, the just, it’s the shipping (0:28:36) Kev: box with extra steps or whatever. (0:28:38) Kev: Well this clearly is not that, there’s a lot more in that, you invest, you can, you kind (0:28:42) Kev: of think strategically how do I want to layout merchandise. (0:28:47) Kev: And I think that’s pretty clever and not just that but aesthetically there’s a lot of variations (0:28:52) Kev: you can go with. (0:28:53) Kev: You know you can actually make it look like a little greenhouse sort of store, you know, (0:28:58) Kev: a nursery that’s the word because you have so many plants and whatnot. (0:29:03) Kev: Yeah they’re even do, they have an employee of a month contest in their discords, that’s (0:29:10) Kev: very cute, where they crown a winner of like the best looking shops every month with the (0:29:15) Kev: demo you can play. (0:29:17) Kev: That is, that is very, very cute. (0:29:19) Kev: Yeah let’s see, okay there’s a couple more training videos, welcome to Blomkis the town’s (0:29:26) Kev: called Blomkis, kind of an overview of the town. (0:29:29) Kev: There’s a shop, some of the different locals and locales, locations you can visit. (0:29:36) Kev: That’s uh, that’s fun. (0:29:40) Kev: And then there’s another employee training video on talking about relationships, like (0:29:45) Kev: the mechanics and different types of characters you can meet and whatnot. (0:29:52) Kev: That’s yeah, that’s the last one. (0:29:55) Kev: Now throughout these training videos there’s a common theme (0:29:58) Kev: Of uh, how should I put this uh, the CD underbelly. This really feels like the Joja Market route, the game. (0:30:10) Kev: Um, because um, at the end of each of these training videos there’s a disclaimer. (0:30:15) Kev: “Discounty corporation cannot be held liable for any environmental damage, interpersonal relationship issues, (0:30:25) Kev: or riotous uprisings that occur as a result of the (0:30:28) Kev: these training, uh, following this training video. (0:30:32) Kev: So, um, yeah, clearly they framed that some of this stuff can result in bad (0:30:37) Kev: things. Um, and you do in fact, get a tiny sliver of a frame of a riotous (0:30:42) Kev: uprising. So, um, yeah, I don’t know. Can you lean into that or is it, you know, (0:30:48) Kev: like, oh, you’re going to have a change of heart and changed how the model works.

(0:30:58) Kev: You don’t have the option to build relationships with people. (0:31:02) Kev: You can bribe or make things easier for you to get around permitting or control press. (0:31:08) Kev: Get in a relationship with a reporter and avoid bad press from your store. (0:31:12) Kev: Which is kind of a fun idea actually. (0:31:16) Kev: The people, your relationships impact the status of your farm. I like that. That’s good. (0:31:22) Kev: Yeah, that’s clever. I’m excited for this one. (0:31:28) Kev: This is the store simulators. (0:31:30) Kev: I think has a lot of charm and personality and the mechanics like I said the whole store customization thing.

No, I don’t think I would be the cat plushie (0:35:13) Kev: Hold on hold on folks. This is what is a Kevin episode. I’m checking the interwebs a big the cat plush (0:35:23) Kev: Is there an official one right? That’s the question cuz of course Etsy has 800 of them (0:35:30) Kev: Great Eastern Entertainment, I think that might be an officially licensed one. Oh snap oh (0:35:37) Kev: Oh my gosh, and it’s almost the price of the snack goon plushie (0:35:42) Kev: Okay, I might not get snack good, but I might get a big the cat plushie (0:35:47) Kev: This episode is an accessory (0:35:50) Kev: You can hear the roars of cheering (0:35:53) Kev: Enjoy as Kevin discovers the big the cat plushie (0:35:59) Kev: He has his fishing rod oh, he looks very dopey. I love it his belly’s not big enough. No his arms are too long (0:36:12) Kev: Oh, but Kevin discovers the big, the cat flush. (0:36:18) Kev: Good times. (0:36:19) Kev: All right. (0:36:20) Kev: All right. (0:36:20) Kev: All right. (0:36:21) Kev: The, the, the, I know that’s the real hard hitting news. (0:36:23) Kev: We all want it, but that’s, that’s all I got. (0:36:25) Kev: That’s, that’s the news we covered the docket. (0:36:27) Kev: Yay. (0:36:29) Kev: Um, so with that being said, let’s get into go show in the grassland. (0:36:38) Kev: So, um, all right, this one, I feel needs a little. (0:36:42) Kev: Just, uh, just a hint of historical context, what is a gaucho? (0:36:54) Kev: Um, so, uh, a gaucho in a very, very base and somewhat inaccurate descriptor, uh, would (0:37:05) Kev: be a South American cowboy, right? (0:37:08) Kev: Um, uh, the, the emphasis being particularly on the horsemanship, the, the skills of equestrianism (0:37:17) Kev: and all that. (0:37:18) Kev: Um, and you know, this, as we all know, I’m Mexican, right? (0:37:22) Kev: So this is south of my border, if you will, right? (0:37:24) Kev: In Mexico, the Vaquero is very, very much synonymous or equivalent to the American cowboy, (0:37:32) Kev: because, hey guess what, like a third of American cowboys were Hispanic, so. (0:37:36) Kev: So, you know, that whole iconography, mythos, is similar, but gauchas are just a little (0:37:44) Kev: different. (0:37:45) Kev: Part of it, I think, is the environment, right? (0:37:48) Kev: We’re talking Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, right? (0:37:53) Kev: A lot, uh… (0:37:55) Kev: A very different environment from the big wide open plains of the U.S., right? (0:38:00) Kev: I mean, there were, they called the Pampas, um, the, uh… (0:38:05) Kev: Kind of plains out in South America, but it’s still, generally speaking, a more heavily forested area, right, so… (0:38:12) Kev: Um, the South American region, right, tropics, and all that good stuff. (0:38:16) Kev: Um… (0:38:19) Kev: So yeah, um, Gauchos, um… (0:38:21) Kev: they they have this sort of uh… meat (0:38:26) Kev: or stereotype of being brave and unruly at the same time (0:38:30) Kev: like very rough and tumble sort of guys out there (0:38:34) Kev: not necessarily like Wild West Sheriff type thing (0:38:38) Kev: but you know they’re out there (0:38:48) Kev: living out on the country living out on the land (0:38:52) Kev: that’s the word I’m looking for and so again (0:38:56) Kev: this South American region and (0:39:00) Kev: that leads to this game Gautreaux and the Grassland which is (0:39:04) Kev: in fact developed by a Brazilian (0:39:07) Kev: game dev company one second let me find their name again (0:39:13) Kev: Gautreaux and the Grassland (0:39:18) Kev: Ipopia games I hope I’m saying that wrong (0:39:22) Kev: or yeah good good job man I hope I’m saying that wrong I hope I’m not saying (0:39:26) Kev: that wrong that is again for talking in South America so this is more Portuguese (0:39:31) Kev: in Spanish so I don’t speak Portuguese I can kind of you know guess a little bit (0:39:37) Kev: but yeah so this was announced forever ago and when this when I saw this game I (0:39:43) Kev: I was thinking, okay, it’s like, 3D Stardew… (0:39:53) Kev: That’s what I thought that the game was going to be, more or less. (0:39:57) Kev: Now, what the game was, or is, isn’t quite that. (0:40:04) Kev: Let’s start with the very first thing. (0:40:05) Kev: First of all, when I bought it, it’s only $20 USD. (0:40:08) Kev: Okay, well, I honestly expected a little more. (0:40:11) Kev: I thought it was going to be, but, I mean, hey, that’s a good surprise, right? (0:40:15) Kev: But it also, I think, does set the expectations of the game, right? (0:40:20) Kev: This was smaller in scale than I expected, I would say. (0:40:24) Kev: And it’s only 1.3 GB, so yeah, much smaller in scale than I expected. (0:40:29) Kev: I was like, “Huh.” (0:40:33) Kev: But that’s not a bad thing, just, you know, just surprise me a little, maybe I wasn’t paying attention. (0:40:41) Kev: So what I did get, instead of Stardew, but South American Cowboy, (0:40:47) Kev: what we got is a game that is more, I think, about that. (0:40:54) Kev: The themes of the couch, which is weird to say. There’s an important bit here. (0:40:59) Kev: When I checked early on, when I was playing, I just happened to check the credits, because I was curious to find out a little more. (0:41:07) Kev: Because when you start the game, it actually tells you that this was, the development was aided by what they call the State Department of Culture, (0:41:14) Kev: which I believe is in reference to a Brazilian governmental, like, federal funding thing. (0:41:20) Kev: Um, which I personally found very endearing. (0:41:24) Kev: Um, uh, and, you know, that, you know, could be largely contextual because of how things are in the U.S., we’re losing NPR, PBS, et cetera, right? (0:41:36) Kev: So, and then you have this little game out of Brazil where, you know, the Brazilian government wants to make, uh, quite a little game about, um, (0:41:53) Kev: So, um, so yeah, that, that, that shortly made me say, huh. (0:41:58) Kev: Um, but furthermore, like I said, I went through the credits and at the end. (0:42:04) Kev: They, they have a dedication to the, the victims of, uh, of some (0:42:12) Kev: floods that happened in Brazil. (0:42:13) Kev: Um, uh, from when I read and researched about, uh, January of 2025 this year. (0:42:21) Kev: You know to the victims and communities affected (0:42:23) Kev: by these heavy flooding some I was not aware of this this stuff but but yeah (0:42:31) Kev: thousands of people were affected people left homeless and so on and so forth so (0:42:38) Kev: yeah obviously a tragic event and I don’t know um like that so recent it’s (0:42:48) Kev: hard to know how much an impact did the development but that little dedication (0:42:53) Kev: kind of paint this this whole game in a different light for me because what this (0:43:01) Kev: game is it’s not the stardew valley like I thought what this game is is about a (0:43:07) Kev: community and helping people out because that’s what the premise is you are a (0:43:13) Kev: nameless gaucho and you are summoned by literally your ghost father that is the (0:43:21) Kev: character’s name, Ghost Father. (0:43:23) Kev: And he, uh, has implored you, forced you. (0:43:29) Kev: It’s, it’s kind of pushy, kind of not even, you don’t get the choice. (0:43:33) Kev: Um, you are given the role of a guardian, a, to, to help, to go out into these (0:43:41) Kev: grasslands and these areas, um, where people have been suffering from all sorts (0:43:46) Kev: of natural and unnatural disasters and to go help them out and restore their (0:43:52) Kev: communities. (0:43:53) Kev: And this is what the game is, it’s not about necessarily your central homestead, but to go out and to go restore these different areas, helping people out. (0:44:05) Kev: That is like legitimate, actually the progress measure, how many happy points you get from people. (0:44:19) Kev: and so yeah it’s like I said very different from what I expected but it’s not (0:44:23) Kev: necessarily a bad thing I personally found this charming and endearing like (0:44:29) Kev: I said you know maybe (0:44:38) Kev: Things aren’t great, right? Maybe it’s my own. You know, I’ve got a lot of personal stuff going on (0:44:44) Kev: Maybe that’s making more sympathetic. Maybe I’m just a big sap. Guess what I am - we all know this (0:44:50) Kev: but I (0:44:51) Kev: found (0:44:53) Kev: This overall premise this overall theme to be very charming and endearing and I think a lot of it’s a presentation (0:44:59) Kev: It has the character designs are very overcooked (0:45:02) Kev: Let’s say for lack of a better way like very cartoony very cutesy and exaggerated (0:45:07) Kev: You’re the gout, the male gout, you can be like- (0:45:08) Kev: I’m male or female, but the male gout characters are generally speaking very big mustaches and eyebrows, very cartoon-y and cute. (0:45:18) Kev: Your dog also gets some eyebrows and mustache. (0:45:24) Kev: So yeah, I don’t know, for all the times I writhe in pain over the term, this game did in fact feel cozy to me. (0:45:38) Kev: At least it touched me, let’s say that. (0:45:42) Kev: Like I said, maybe I’m reading too much into it, right? Maybe that was just a nice little dedication I put in, but… (0:45:48) Kev: When I see this, right, it’s a game about hoping people, they have these floods, and you have the State Department of Culture funding them, backing them up, like… (0:46:00) Kev: I don’t know, all that is a feel-good story to me, like, it adds up to just something a little heartwarming. (0:46:10) Kev: But like I said, I don’t know, maybe that’s just me, it’s just mine being just too influenced by other stuff going on. (0:46:16) Kev: But overall, regardless of that, I do think the game is still charming, and overall the gaming is enjoyable. (0:46:24) Kev: So let’s talk about the actual gameplay mechanics. (0:46:28) Kev: It’s very resource-like collect and manage-not even manage, it’s collecting, right? (0:46:34) Kev: You’re not even, or at least from the portion I’ve played, I’ve only played (0:46:39) Kev: One of three different areas. I wasn’t you’re not really (0:46:43) Kev: Farming growing crops you I was and there might be it looks like there’s some different mechanics. I might unlock on each area (0:46:52) Kev: Because I know there’s chickens in the I have not encountered chickens (0:46:55) Kev: I did raise cattle and and grow and get milk from them, but but no crops (0:47:01) Kev: Um, so there might be that I might buy I don’t want to be inaccurate (0:47:06) Kev: But just I haven’t reached that if that’s the case, but so yeah, but (0:47:09) Kev: Not so much about growing the resources going out and gathering or finding them right chopping trees picking (0:47:15) Kev: You know using your pickaxe at stones to get stones. You mean your dog is a little resource generator (0:47:21) Kev: You used 10 did to dig at holes and it finds metal bits or or clay or you know different different items and resources (0:47:31) Kev: And and so yeah, so you have these different tools (0:47:34) Kev: Yeah, the axe the pickaxe a machete. Oh machete. You can cut down grass different types of (0:47:39) Kev: Grasses and stuff with it a jug for collecting water (0:47:43) Kev: Oh and a milk bucket took to milk cows cuz cows or milk cow milk is a resource as well (0:47:50) Kev: And so you’re gathering all these resources and you’re going around and helping people out right it’s full 3d (0:47:57) Kev: So, you know you the horse riding as it should be with a gaucho game is very important (0:48:04) Kev: have a horse with you at all times or you can hop on or summon it you can whistle and… (0:48:08) Kev: it’ll come to you at all times. The horse riding feels good you can lasso from the (0:48:14) Kev: horse riding and use a cattle horn to to have cows follow you all that feels (0:48:19) Kev: good as it should be as I’d expect so you know thumbs up for that it feels (0:48:24) Kev: like what I want or what I’d expect right which is always such an important (0:48:28) Kev: thing for any game. So yeah mechanically I think it’s it’s very solid and and hey (0:48:34) Kev: They are supporting it in between the time you’re playing it and… (0:48:38) Kev: …and, you know, coming out and me talking about this, they’ve come out with a couple updates… (0:48:43) Kev: …including one that improved gamepad performance. (0:48:46) Kev: ‘Cause the gamepad at first felt almost like a mouse cursor, you know, that sort of experience, which isn’t ideal. (0:48:52) Kev: And so they said, “Hey, we’re gonna fix that,” and now it just snaps to different menu options. (0:48:55) Kev: Like, “Alright, now that we’re talking, that’s what I want from a gamepad.” (0:48:59) Kev: So, so good for them. Good for them. (0:49:01) Kev: Um… (0:49:03) Kev: Uh… (0:49:04) Kev: Where was it going? (0:49:05) Kev: Uh, anyways, okay, going back to the resources. (0:49:07) Kev: So yeah, you gather all these resources. (0:49:08) Kev: If you’re six and stones and water and all that stuff and going around and helping people, um, there’s, there’s all sorts of different things, but hey, help me build me build this cart and this fence. (0:49:18) Kev: My cows all broke out. (0:49:19) Kev: Can you help me fix this fence and, and go herd my cows back here? (0:49:23) Kev: Can you help me build the trough for these new animals? (0:49:26) Kev: Can you fill it with water? (0:49:27) Kev: Can you help extinguish all these fires that are popping up with the jar? (0:49:32) Kev: Um, uh, you know, different things. (0:49:36) Kev: Um, it’s that. (0:49:38) Kev: particularly deep, there’s no, you know, deep character stories or lures or anything. (0:49:44) Kev: But you’re just going out and just helping a community, just helping these little people (0:49:47) Kev: regrow their little village, your community. (0:49:51) Kev: And as you do, you know, you get, I think they literally call it happiness points or (0:49:55) Kev: something like that. (0:49:57) Kev: And kind of what you’re doing in each of the areas, because there’s, like I said, there’s (0:50:00) Kev: three different areas. (0:50:01) Kev: You start off the game in one central hub world, but then you hop over to different (0:50:05) Kev: areas and what you’re trying to do is you’re trying to find like (0:50:08) Kev: this spirit guardian of this of each region. So once you help (0:50:14) Kev: enough people, you open a door where there’s there’s some (0:50:25) Kev: uh… and that’s kind of the overall objective for each area (0:50:32) Kev: in that there is still (0:50:35) Kev: some sandboxy creative elements it’s not (0:50:38) Kev: totally linear (0:50:40) Kev: uh… there’s areas of land you can buy by exchanging enough resources (0:50:45) Kev: uh… and some quests will actually ask you to do so because (0:50:48) Kev: when you buy the land you can (0:50:50) Kev: create different buildings on it (0:50:53) Kev: You’re given different recipes and… (0:50:55) Kev: You can build different types of houses, or a barn, or fencing, or you know, little different structures. (0:51:02) Kev: And from what, again, only going to employ one of the three areas, it does look like I could go to the second area and get new recipes and bring them back to the first area. (0:51:12) Kev: So, yeah, there’s this element of building up, not just repairing and helping all these little people, but actually building up the town. (0:51:22) Kev: the town, and a lot of it is purely aesthetic, cosmetic. (0:51:25) Kev: but it’s still charming, and it’s a little grid based system, you build, put a building here, put a building there, whatever. (0:51:32) Kev: It’s not super in-depth, at least from what I’ve seen, you can’t build like, let’s say, roads, which I kind of wish I could. (0:51:39) Kev: Because I think that would kind of make the village feel nicer, or whatever. (0:51:43) Kev: But, you know, it’s not Animal Crossing customized to every bit of a speck of dirt on the island, or whatever. (0:51:50) Kev: But it is a nice little creative outlet, too. (0:52:00) Kev: um and so that uh yeah that that’s like I said that’s I i’m only maybe a third of the game it’s (0:52:11) Kev: a very short game i’ll say you could probably you know for someone who’s busy you could probably (0:52:17) Kev: knock out maybe a week you just play it like an hour or two every night um because yeah i’ve (0:52:22) Kev: played I don’t know the exact card count but I would estimate i’m about a third of the way (0:52:27) Kev: done with the game and you know for that price that’s (0:52:30) Kev: perfectly fine and acceptable but yeah that’s that’s kind of it it is a like (0:52:39) Kev: game at least from what I’ve seen so far and that’s okay sometimes I like game is (0:52:44) Kev: good like I said earlier and more importantly like I said I think this (0:52:50) Kev: game does something that’s very hard and that’s just to make it charming but (0:52:56) Kev: Genuinely that that heartwarming sense of help (0:53:01) Kev: I don’t know that that’s (0:53:07) Kev: Like I think of Stardew Valley in the whole Jojo route and taking out right there helping people (0:53:13) Kev: like those those stories, you know, you help certain people and you get involved in their stories and whatever but (0:53:19) Kev: The overall feeling of restoring the community so I don’t know sometimes that maybe that gets lost in the weeds of just trying to fill (0:53:26) Kev: out the community (0:53:27) Kev: Center request or whatever (0:53:30) Kev: but this game like that’s clearly what they’re aiming for and I think it was a (0:53:36) Kev: They succeeded at it, which you know hats off to them. I find that very (0:53:41) Kev: impressive (0:53:43) Kev: So yeah, I’m gonna keep playing this game. I want to finish it to completion. That’s not terribly hard ask (0:53:49) Kev: and (0:53:51) Kev: But and yeah, I honestly (0:53:53) Kev: like even (0:53:55) Kev: Even though the game was not what I expected it (0:54:00) Kev: The cowboy simulator I hope for personally (0:54:04) Kev: It’s still a lovely and charming game and and then two thumbs up and an easy recommendation from me (0:54:11) Kev: You know, I hope it does well (0:54:13) Kev: I you know, like (0:54:16) Kev: It’s a more niche (0:54:18) Kev: like culturally (0:54:21) Kev: Area (0:54:22) Kev: You know, it’s not like we’re playing games from South American devs every other week here or in general, you know, so I (0:54:30) Kev: Wholeheartedly encourage that and then you know, just go check it out, you know (0:54:36) Kev: And and like I said, they you can feel the care they’re putting into this there. They’re updating game constantly and then fixing things (0:54:43) Kev: And and yeah, I can’t open I guess it before but though the overcooked art sounds very cute charming. I can’t emphasize enough (0:54:51) Kev: Um, okay. Yeah, I think that’s that’s all I got really I’m done rambling and and and and and and getting mushy and all that (0:54:59) Kev: Um… (0:55:01) Kev: So yeah, that is gaucho in the grass when I came out didn’t disappoint hey good good for them (0:55:06) Kev: Right the game works and didn’t disappoint. What more can you ask for really? (0:55:12) Kev: So yeah go check that out again, I highly encourage you (0:55:17) Kev: And yeah, I guess we can call it an episode shorter one, of course just just me that’s (0:55:24) Kev: that’s I (0:55:26) Kev: I like long podcasts.

It’s easy to turn on podcasts and just get in it for a couple hours. But yeah, I always feel (0:55:46) Kev: bad when these episodes. That’s the biggest thing I feel bad about. It’s a little short, but hey, (0:55:52) Kev: it is what it is. What can I do? I mean, I could go on, but you know, I’ll save out there. (0:56:00) Kev: Just cutting out entire sections of me talking to myself is two different characters. That’ll be (0:56:10) Kev: for another episode. But yeah, thanks again folks for listening.

Hear about travel to Suriname as the Amateur Traveler talks to Mike Power from SmallOfTheRoad.blogspot.com about his recent trip to this South American country. Why should you go to Suriname? Mike says, "It's an undiscovered little gem. I'm just surprised it's not more popular. The number one draw there would be nature and ecotourism. There's a ton to see. As much as 95% of the country is covered in rainforest. And so ecotourism and the wildlife, especially a lot of birds, monkeys, etc. The second one would be diversity. So, it's actually a very diverse country. And in particular, I found the maroon communities that live inland fascinating. These are descendants of former escaped slaves. And then finally, I'd say Paramaribo, which is the main city in Suriname. It's now a UNESCO World Heritage Site with these old buildings that date back to the 17th and 18th centuries." Here's the itinerary Mike recommends for Suriname: Get deep into the primary rainforest to experience wildlife and pure Amazonian jungle. Mike went to Nature Resort Kabalebo, which offered guided river trips, forest hikes, waterfalls, night walks, abundant birds, monkeys, poison dart frogs, and tapirs. 1. Interior Rainforest Lodge (3 nights). ... https://amateurtraveler.com/travel-to-suriname/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Keith Neumeyer: Silver Now Attracting Attention Of Mutual & Pension Funds Last week I was at the Rick Rule Symposium, where perhaps the dominant theme was how money is now finally coming back into the silver sector.

In this episode of our BTP Shorts series on varroa treatments, Jeff and Becky welcome back Dr. David Peck of Betterbee to explore VarroxSan—an extended-release oxalic acid strip used to manage varroa mites. David explains how this USDA-registered product works, its origins in South American formulations like Aluen CAP, and why its slow-release delivery makes it a valuable tool for maintaining mite levels throughout the brood cycle. Oxalic acid, a naturally occurring organic acid, is effective against varroa and safe for bees when used correctly. David walks through how the fiberboard strips are dosed, placed in the hive, and gradually deliver oxalic acid over a 42–56 day period. While the exact mechanism of mite mortality remains somewhat mysterious, VarroxSan's ability to hold down mite levels—especially during nectar flows—makes it a helpful part of an integrated mite management plan. The team also discusses pros and cons: the product's compatibility with honey supers (with proper spacing), the need for good hive records to time strip removal, and the importance of following label instructions. They caution that VarroxSan may not be ideal as a first-response treatment for colonies already overwhelmed with mites, but it excels at keeping mite populations from rebounding. If you're considering an organic acid treatment that doesn't interrupt honey production, this episode is a must-listen.

Mabrouk Chetouane joins Morning Movers to dissect the developments in Donald Trump's ongoing tariff negotiations. He differentiates the potential political and economic fallout from the global trade uncertainty. Mabrouk points to the critical partnership with Brazil's economy and cautions against the South American nation's increasing relations with China. He says the reaction by tariffs is "pretty calm" as they await for the end of the negotiating period for clear pricing impact. Mabrouk adds that market participants have learned from the April "panic" from the initial round of tariffs.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

NORTHCOM DEPLOYS MARINES TO FLORIDA.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Yesterday President Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin by phone, to discuss various issues pertaining to the Middle East and the war in Ukraine. After the phone call, President Trump stated that he was not happy with the discussion, as no progress was made on concluding the war in Ukraine.Florida: Yesterday afternoon, U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) released a statement confirming that 200 U.S. Marines will be deployed to the state to provide logistical support to ICE. The press release also stated that more deployments are expected.California: A total of 7x Central and South American migrants were arrested yesterday in conjunction with a jewelry heist that occurred back in May. Local authorities state that the Bidrussian Jewelry store in Glendale was burglarized by the seven assailants, who exhibited more advanced tactics than normally presented during a standard smash-and-grab. The city's 911 service and internet connectivity was impacted due to the thieves cutting communications cables and using signal jammers during the robbery.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The use of signal jammers is interesting in that it's a major indicator for the progression of the sophistication of crime in an area. All of the assailants were caught, so it didn't work out too well for them in the end, however this is the latest example of how criminals are learning tactics from around the world. Criminals in South Africa, for instance, are legendary for their widespread use of jammers during criminal activities, both to prevent victims from calling emergency services, but also to disable WiFi cameras and GPS tracking devices. Similarly, the cutting of communications cables has been noted as being effective due to the commonality of climate activists cutting cables in sabotage operations throughout Europe.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

New York group La Banda Chuska combines the psychedelic takes on the sounds of 1970's Peru and Colombia and brings them to the beach party resulting in an irresistible cumbia-surf mixture. They play in-studio. In Peru and Colombia in the early 70s, young musicians who'd grown up with South American folk sounds began picking up electric guitars and playing their own psychedelic take on the rhythms and styles of the region. Fifty years later and one hemisphere to the north, the New York group called La Banda Chuska takes those sounds and adds elements of 60s surf guitar and 80s dance rock to create a fun, international sort of party music. La Banda Chuska plays some songs from their 2025 album Basic Bichos.Set list: 1. Ratas y Mapaches 2. Barba Azul 3. La Selva Me Salvó

Carlos Tevez is a player often overlooked when reminiscing about the greatest South Americans to play in the Premier League. But why? When he was at his peak, he devastated defences with trickery, Argentinian toughness, and goals that won his clubs countless trophies. His ex-teammate Wayne Rooney told us that Tevez “was his favourite strike partner”, while Joe Hart described him as “the catalyst who helped change the mentality of Manchester City”. Maybe Tevez is often forgotten because, along with the riches and skills, Tevez had a list of controversies that followed him around wherever he went. Whether it was his refusal to come off the bench in a key Champions League game, moving between rival clubs, or even the issues around who actually owned him, Carlos Tevez's seven year stay in the Premier League was a white knuckle, rollercoaster ride. But despite all that - speak to most fans, and they'll tell you they love him. This episode of Football Daily is hosted by football writer and Copa 90 presenter, Eugene Noble, and seeks to unravel the controversies of Carlos Tevez's fascinating career, to show just how unique and brilliant a player he was. To understand his rags to riches story, Eugene takes us back to Argentina to see how the man was made. From growing up in a crime filled tower block to being discovered playing on the streets of Buenos Aires, we chart his move from Argentina to London when he stunned everyone to join West Ham. We'll hear from his ex-teammate Bobby Zamora about culture clashes in the dressing room, and how they formed a partnership which led to the great escape. We'll then explore his time at both Manchester clubs, delving into all the controversies, the goals and the trophies along the way, with Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart, and many others. The Carlos Tevez story is a thrilling one, offering unique insight, stories and first hand accounts on his career. And Tevez has still got it as well - in June 2025 he scored 4 goals in Soccer Aid at age 41. But do his controversies add to his myth? Or could he have achieved even higher heights if he was a bit better behaved? And is Tevez the most archetypal Argentinian player since Diego Maradona?
