This Week at Remap

Featured

Some exciting news to report from this past weekend. One, my nine-year-old was, thankfully, dropped into the appropriate "heat" for her latest swim meet and crushed it. We tried to tell her getting first place in an event won't happen all the time, but the confidence booster was well needed (and earned) after last week's fiasco. Plus, she took this opportunity to ask me to make good on something she'd been bugging me about for a long time: digging up an old 3DS for her to play with. She chose (correctly) to use my Majora's Mask New 3DS XL, and she's been entranced by it. I'll have more to share on Remap Radio this week, but the entire saga was very cute.

P.S. A new perk coming to subs! If you're a Library/Foundation subscriber, you'll start getting Remap Radio episodes as soon as production is done with them. So don't be alarmed if you notice Remap Radio in your feed later on Thursday evening. Enjoy!

Hey, look at that. It's the next week of Remap!
  • PODCAST: HOA (feat: Rob, Patrick) – It’s springtime and the yard is alive, but so are the invasive plant species. Rob has just received an assessment from the state environmental agency that told him some things he already knows but also alerted him to the plague of killer plants and bugs that are always encroaching. Rob and Patrick talk about arborists and the difficulty of knowing who to listen to when it comes to caring for your yard, and Rob explains why he thinks some landscapers are a menace. Rob and Patrick discuss living dangerously with letting the grass grow before you mow it, and Rob explains how proper herbicide usage is like a Hitman level.
  • STREAM: Janet + Patrick Rank Platformers – We're back! And for the next month, we're dipping our toes into the world of Nintendo 64 platformers. But no, we are not doing the games you might expect. You'll hear the full lineup on stream, but let's just say we might be seeing what ol' Glover is up to this week.
  • ARTICLE/PODCAST: Bubsy 4D – You knew I had to do this. Plus, it ends up being a surprising conversation about what Bubsy 3D actually represents.
  • PODCAST: Remap Radio (feat: Janet, Patrick, Rob, Chia) – Probably a few hours figuring out what everyone's plans are for the Memorial Day weekend?
  • STREAM: Rob + Patrick Playing Serious Golf – It's time to enter the world of highly realistic golf sims, which is sure to produce some interesting outcomes. (It's also a chance for us to yap about Sports, since it's been a minute there.)
  • ARTICLE: Letter Series – Topic TBD.
