Remap Radio
Remap Radio is a new podcast from the creators of the long-running video game podcast Waypoint Radio. Join Rob Zacny, Chia Contreras, Patrick Klepek, and their friends and colleagues as they set off on a new adventure that has them obsessing over the video game Dragon’s Dogma nearly as much as they question the nature of capitalism.

On today's episode of Remap Radio, Danika's filling two pairs of shoes while Chia and Janet are out. Things get a bit unhinged as we veer into unexplored territory talking about jack-off bots.

Scheduling issues were going to prevent a full Sports! Recording this week, but Rob and Patrick privately committed to hopping on a microphone for a little bit if things went sideways—good or bad—for their beloved Bears. Now, the only question on their minds is: how BACK are they?

What a joy to say these words: welcome back, Danika! On the latest episode of Remap Radio, our old friend Danika Harrod is here to make Rob feel uncomfortable, bring up sexy Labubu during unexpected moments, and plenty more.

While most people are talking about playing Ghosts of Yotei, we’re still trying to figure out why the head of Sucker Punch wasn’t prepared for a basic question about firing someone over Charlie Kirk. Join Patrick, Chia, Janet, and Rob as they wonder what it means for Xbox hardware prices to keep rising, plus (more) thoughts on Silksong, Hell Is Us, Silent Hill f, and more.
Discussed: Jimmy Kimmel Canceled, then Not, and the...
Despite Patrick’s best efforts, Rob doesn’t suddenly believe one dominant win over a pathetic Dallas Cowboys team means it’s Super Bears Super Bowl. Alas, we still find much to chat about when it comes to the institutional rot at our favorite sports team and the perhaps not-so-shocking amount of NFL teams that decided Charlie Kirk was worth making everyone try to feel bad about.

Here's a preview of this week's HOA episode! It finally happened: Rob moved into his house! There are always surprises when you move. For example, what if someone is living on part of the land and you have no option but to become their landlord? You know, normal stuff. Join Patrick as he puts his head in his hands and becomes increasingly anxious hearing Rob describe what the last few weeks have been like.
Rob is back for this latest episode of Remap Radio, which kicks off with Janet, Chia, Rob, and Patrick mulling their early days online via dial-up. Real ones remember the days of RealPlayer.

Plus, Patrick’s been messing around with the clever new puzzle...
There are so many video games out right now, so we had a genius idea: an entire podcast exclusively focused on the video games we’re playing. What a concept, right?

With Rob in the midst of moving houses, Remap Radio welcomes the return of Janet to the fold, joining Chia and Patrick as each of them recounts their recent experiences at border crossings. Some more harrowing than others. The group also reacts to Silksong finally getting a release date, prompting all sorts of other video games to scuttle into new release dates, before they dig into impressions of Shinobi: Art of Vengeance...
Every year, Rob and I hype ourselves into believing, like all good fans do, this could be the year team puts it together. The two hours we spent talking about the upcoming NFL season—and obviously, the Chicago Bears—was not that. We're becoming better, sadder, more realistic fans, baby!

Microsoft faces pressures from one of their own studios on the...

Discussed: Ren's Monster Hunter Adventures 0:54, Chia's Gen Con Adventure...
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 B...

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,...
Is there any place to start other than Steam, New Waypoint, and the way anti-porn groups are trying to destroy important and valuable parts of the internet?
