Hey friends, two apologies. First, sorry for it being a day late, yesterday got away from me, and secondly, I forgot to hit record on my mixer, so the audio is taken directly from the OBS video. I hope that’s okay.
So, some big news this week. This week, the primary topic is that we’re changing the podcast a little bit, starting with episode 500.
- Firstly, we’re changing the schedule to a bi-monthly (twice a month) schedule. We’ll now be recording on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month. You can see this reflected in the updated calendar. This is to help avoid burnout, which was the other big topic for this episode.
- Secondly, we’re adding a game focus to our show. Now, in the background, we’ll choose a game we can all play, and once we’ve all gotten enough time with it, we’ll be dedicating an episode to discussing that game. Each game is different, so there’s no set amount of time we’ll take to get to a game, but we will get to it. Our first game will be the first game I ever covered here, Space Pirates and ZombiesE!
To summarize, we’ll be moving to a bi-monthly schedule starting with episode 500 on August 27th, 2025, and we’ll be adding a game focus to our show as well. These changes will hopefully help revitalize the show a bit and allow me to charge my mental batteries and get away from the burnout I’ve been feeling.

SO, as stated, on the next show, we’ll take a look back over the time we’ve been running the show (2013 to today) and try to celebrate the developers that have added so much to space gaming over the years. That day I’ll also be hosting a longer morning stream to play all the games submitted for our celebratory game jam!
