This Week at Remap

You'll hear more about this in a future HOA episode, I'm sure, but today was a day I've been dreading for an exceptionally long time: our ancient HVAC system requires a repair costly enough that you should just replace the whole thing entirely. It's a terribly expensive repair that, much like a roof, is something that is replaced relatively quickly and almost no one will notice that you've spent the equivalent of a down payment on a car having it installed. $500 to get another year out of the system? OK, sure. $2,000, knowing it's, at best, a band-aid? Well, good thing we decided against doing that big family trip this year! (A trip that was cancelled largely because prices, thanks to Trump, made our destination ideas broadly unfeasible.)

The schedule for Remap this week
The next week at Remap.
  • Library-Tier Podcast: My Turn: Out of Sight (Monday, October 19) – We're going to slowly but surely work through a list of very Rob Zacny-coded movies, starting with Out of Sight and leading into lord knows what else.
  • Stream: Lo-Fi Patrick (Monday, October 19) – Tune in to watch me crash out over terrible HVAC news, before recovering with cute spooky times.
  • Library-Tier Podcast: Sports! Mini (Tuesday, October 20) – Last week, the Bears were very much not back. This week, the Bears seemingly are back?
    • This will go public for everyone on Saturday. But also, the Bears play on Thursday night, so the schedule on all of this might have to change.
  • Stream: Steam Fest Fest Lightning Round (2:30 PM, Tuesday, October 20) – Janet will join Chia and myself to play a bunch of different video game demos very fast!
  • Library-Tier Podcast: Remap Review Roundup (Wednesday, October 21) – Rob's gonna chat with the folks who've been reviewing games for us lately!
  • Stream: Over the Hill (2:30 PM, Thursday, October 22) – Swapping one race far for another.
  • Podcast: Remap Radio (Friday, October 23) – Gonna make everyone listen to me talk about Hellraiser Revival for three hours. Buckle up.
  • Library-Tier Article: Letter Series (Friday, October 23) – We sent a lot of writing out last week, so we decided to punt on the letter series a little bit.
