Schedule for the Week of 02/03/2025

Well, uh, interesting times out there, huh? It seems like if you’re in the US and you were pondering any gaming hardware purchases, the time to do it may be sooner than later, with all the uncertainty flying around about tariffs that could land on electronics and semiconductors of various sorts. Personally I’m probably going to batten down the hatches and make do with what I’ve got for the foreseeable future, till we get more clarity on how things are going to settle out.

To keep the nautical analogies sailing along, things are steady as she goes on the content front this week, as we’re not quite deep enough into February for some of the more interesting releases on the schedule just yet. So we’ll be following up on a number of last week’s podcasts and streams per the below, and we’ll have a Planorama posting a bit later on in the week as well. Hope everyone has a good week, and stay safe out there.

Back to The X-Files

We couldn’t spend all that time tracking down a lone cigarette butt in a giant warehouse and then just walk away, could we? We’ll jump back in this Friday to see if we can catch a Mulder and Scully appearance this week.
