It’s been nearly two months since the launch of the Switch 2. With the release of Donkey Kong Bananza, it felt like a good time to have a long and focused discussion on what Nintendo is trying to accomplish with the Switch 2, why the company feels a little more boring these days, and what it means to conceptualize a future without figures like Miyamoto leading the charge. To have this discussion, Patrick is joined by Kat Bailey (Axe of the Blood God, Nintenkats). If you enjoy this podcast, let us know! Patrick’s considering doing one for every platform holder.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sports! (Feat: 404 Media’s Jason Koebler)
Folks, the Chicago Cubs are really good right now. Which is why we had to invite 404 Media's Jason Koebler on to talk about how much it sucks to be a fan of his team, the disappointing Baltimore Orioles. In the first half of the podcast, though, we talk about 404 Media’s excellent reporting on tech’s takeover of politics, the rise of Silicon Valley on the right, the newfound obsession over the R-word in those circles, and, eventually, if the pitch clock was a good idea.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Minecraft YouTuber Behind 2025's Most Diabolical Video Game
Earlier this year, Patrick fell down a well. Hours of work vanished in an instant, thanks to a single jump. This all happened in Hopshot, a tremendous (and very hard) platformer from designer Mysty “Mysticat” McCallister. Did you also know she’s a super popular Minecraft creator on YouTube with nearly two million subscribers?! Mysticat joined Patrick to talk about crafting challenge, why young people are so interested in being YouTube creators, and more.Subscribe to Mysticat on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mysticat/videosSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
