For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place? SHOW NOTES: Kara Weller: The Impossible Dilemma of a Polar Guide Marilyn Raphael: A twenty-first century structural change in Antarctica’s sea ice system Karl Watson: First Time in Antarctica Jeb Brooks : 7 Days in Antarctica (Journey to the South Pole) Metallica - Freeze 'Em All: Live in Antarctica Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices…

Some great topics on the show this month, ranging from fun and light, to a bit more serious. First up, Todd leads a discussion on what he calls “slow burner” games, which a player may start and stop playing for months or even years. Joe is interested in VGM soundtracks which are so good, it made us go buy the actual game. And lastly, a long and thoughtful discussion about AI being used in game development, with some fantastic input from our listeners and Patrons. Do we finally solve the AI problem once and for all?

Ready for a nostalgia trip with a twist? On this month’s episode, Ed takes the reins and curates a fantastic selection of some of his favorite video game music for Joe and Myla to experience for the very first time! It becomes a VGM battle of sorts, where Ed plays the original versions of beloved tunes and then surprises Joe and Myla with one or more remakes. From the chiptune classics to techno and rock reimaginings, our hosts will listen, discuss, and cast their votes on which version reigns supreme. The conversation takes some interesting turns, so beware: you may never look at Simon Belmont the same way again! Will the original 8-bit magic capture their hearts, or will the modern, polished remakes win them over? Tune in to hear their candid reactions, spirited debates, and, of course, the final verdict!

After a short hiatus, the EE boys are back with Ed’s wife Myla with some new hot topics to discuss! Joe leads a chat about what kinds of progression we like in our video games, be it earning powers along the way, or mastering powers your hero already has. Spurred by the news of Microsoft contemplating a purchase of Valve, Todd is concerned about the state of the video game industry. We all voice similar concerns and talk about the direction the industry could go in these trying times. Lastly, Myla’s been playing Little Kitty, Big City and loving it! She’s curious about what our favorite video game animals are, and we hear some fantastic responses from our listeners.

In the spirit of Easter Sunday, we’re talking about resurrection and reconciliation on today’s episode, particularly in the realm of retro game series. Todd asks us to think about some older games with fatal flaws and what we’d do to fix them and make them worthy of our time. Ed asks about bringing old game series back to life, and how they’d fit in with modern gaming aesthetics. And lastly, Joe’s been inspired by Metal Gear Solid parody game UnMetal and wants more stealth-based game recommendations.
