    Episode 219: The Joy of Gaming (National Inspiring Joy Day)

    Marie Kondo is famous for one question when cleaning out one’s items: Does this spark joy in my life? Video games may not be the first thing that sparks joy for most people, but they are beloved for those that play them, either to completion to until they are no longer viable. It was a certain cutscene or dialogue that touched our minds and hearts, a character that was personally relatable, or a story which became ingrained in memory. It was also the people encountered online that encouraged, cheered, and lifted you up in your low moment. These are what sparked the joy in gaming. This week, we’re celebrating National Inspiring Joy Day by talking about some stories of joy and playing some tracks for certain video games: a Elder Tauran residing in Thunder Bluff, a CS2 gamer who was lifted after being wrongfully kicked out of a match, and a shire to a brother who passed away. There’s also covers to follow each of these tracks. As you listen to these tracks, think about the games you’ve and sparked joy…   National Inspiring Joy Day (National Today, National Day Archives) “Touching Stories Behind the Excitement in Gaming World”   Ezra Chatteron (WoWpedia) Bear – In Memory of Taylor (Nexus Mod) “The internet redeems itself by rallying around bullied deaf and blind ‘Counter-Strike’ player” “The Remarkable Life of Iblin” is an Ode to Connection and Gaming       Track Listing Intro: “Joy To the World” – composed by Hoyt Axton, performed by Three Dog Night “The Tauren” – [World of Warcraft] – composed by David Arkenstone “World of Warcraft – Mulgore Planins (Tauren Theme)” – covered by Dryante “Main Theme” – [Counter-strike 2] – composed by Mike Morasky “COUNTER-STRIKE2 – MAIN THEME (GUITAR COVER)” – covered by iBodom “Far Horizons” – [The Elder Scrolls V: Skryim] – composed by Jeremy Soule “Far Horizons (on Saxphone) ft.

    Episode 217: The Signs in the Sky (Astrology Day)

    The stars are a sight to behold on a clear, dark night. The constellations they form have their own backstory, and somehow, they seem to have some involvement with people’s lives. As such, astrologists and readers of fate have interpreted these stars in relation to a person and their personality. Today, we’re celebrating Astrology Day, on March 20th, dedicated to showing the positive aspect of astrology and stir an interest in the stars and planets. This day coincides with the start of the spring equinox, the start of the astrological year when the Sun enters Aries, the first sign of the Zodiac. It’s also a time for reflection and renew, refreshment and beginnings. For this week’s episode, we’re playing tracks from video games that feature or use astrology in some form: a war between two factions as seen by a certain individual, a Holy Queen attempting to bring the Golden Age, and a traveler’s companion who reads the stars. We also have covers, remixes and arrangements along with these original tracks. Sit back, look up, and admire the shiny stars and ponder how they may affected your life…   Astrology Day (Days of the Year)  Final Fantasy Tactics: Zodiac Signs and Compatibility Final Fantasy Tactics Zodiac Compatibility Virgo Versus the Zodiac (TV tropes) Genshin Impact: Mona (Fandom)   Final Fantasy Tactics Soundtrack Remastered+     Track Listing “Formation Screen” – [Final Fantasy Tactics] – composed by Hitoshi Sakimoto “Final Fantasy Tactics Formation Theme – Metal Remix” – remixed by ToxicxEternity “The Fire Moth” – [Virgo Versus the Zodiac] – composed by Elektrobear “The Fire Moth – Virgo Versus The Zodiac | Piano” – covered by Pixel Partitas “Surge of Prophecies” – [Genshin Impact] – composed by Yu-Peng Chen “Genshin Impact OST – Surge of Prophecies Mona’s Theme – Piano Arrangement” – arranged by MrLint   YouTube playlist Discord channel     Source

    Episode 216: Friday the 13th - Unlucky St. Patrick

    Well, look here. It’s another Friday the 13th, the second one for 2026, in fact. That means we’ll be looking into some mysterious and superstitious things, and for this week’s episode, it’ll be related to St. Patrick’s Day. Normally, St. Patrick’s Day is all about luck and the Irish. People wear green, ornate themselves with a four-leaf clover, and hopefully find an Irish woman to kiss for luck. It’s a day to honor a 5th-century Christian missionary who was traveled to Ireland for evangelism. Oh, and of course, it’s a time to see some rivers and beers turn green. However, we’re going to look at some unlucky things that could happen, in or out of St. Patrick’s Day. We’ve got some video game tracks to help us segue into this discussion (a lone girl who can summon creatures, a weapon of holy power, and a woman with extraterrestrial powers), along with covers to follow. Time to get lucky and hopefully avoid some unfortunate circumstances…   St. Patrick’s Day “The Luck of the Irish” “20 St. Patrick’s Day Traditions That Will Bring You Luck – Or Just a Whole Lot of Fun”     “Rydia’s Theme” – [Final Fantasy IV] – composed by Nobuo Uematsu “Final Fantasy IV – Rydia’s Theme Cello and Piano” – covered by Israfelcello “Stalker” / “Stage 04” – [Castlevania] – composed by Konami Kukeiha Club “Castlevania – Stalker” – covered by Nestalgica “Welcome to Fyrestone” – [Borderlands] – composed by Jesper Kyd “Manhack – Welcome to Fyrestone (Borderlands Metal Cover)” – covered by Manhack   YouTube playlist Discord channel     Source

    Episode 215: That Video Game Drip (National Dress Day)

    Today, on March 6th, we are celebrating National Dress Day. It was founded by fashion and dress designer of formal wear Ashley Lauren, she wanted to “draw attention to the beauty of dresses, reliving and celebrating the memories that happen while wearing them.” One can wear their favorite dress that day or attempt the 100-Day Dress Challenge (wear the same dress for 100 days). This is also a great excuse to buy a dress to add to your collection. I’m sure you’re wondering what do dresses have to do with with video games. Sure, they function as armor that can be equipped, but dresses can be a function of game mechanics. For this week’s episode, we’re featuring video games that use dresses as a game mechanic by playing their original tracks: a trio of treasure hunters exploring the world of Spira, a hero from Hyrule utilizing their fashion sense, and a group of adventures that are dressed for success. We’ve also got covers and remixes along with these original tracks. Pick your best threads and strut them on the catwalk like the gamer you are…   National Dress Day Final Fantasy X-2: Dresspheres The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes: Outfits Trials of Mana: Costumes     Track Listing “Real Emotion (FFX-2)” – [Final Fantasy X-2] – composed by Kazuhiro Hara, arranged by h-wonder, lyrics by Kenn Kato, performed by Jade from Sweetbox “REAL EMOTION Final Fantasy X-2 Cover” – covered by Lacey Johnson “Woodlans” – [The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes] – composed by Ryo Magamatsu “Tri Force Heroes: Woodlands Orchestral Arrangement” – remixed by The Nobel Demon “Where Angel Fear to Tread” – [Trails of Mana (remake of Seiken Densetsu 3)] – composed by Hiroki Kikuta “Seiken Densestsu 3 – Where Angels Fear to Tread (Synthwave mix)” – remixed by Flashburn   YouTube playlist Discord channel     Source

    Episode 213: Giddy-up!!! (The Year of the Horse)

    It’s time for the Lunar New Year, which starts around the second new moon of the Chinese calendar. This year it is the year of the horse, according to the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac sign. The animal is known for its confidence, decisiveness, and to be agreeable and responsible; however, they hate being reined in by others, are easily swayed, and can be impatient. On this week’s episode, we’ll be talking about some famous horses from video games throughout the decades (1990s to 2020s): a young foal that later becomes a full grown mare for Hyrule’s hero, a faithful mare despite the giants of the land, the name for any horse ridden by a monster hunter, and a spectral stallion that chooses a Tarnished. Along with the original tracks from these games, there’s also covers and remixes to follow.

    Episode 212: Friday the 13th - "Lovely" Customs and Curses

    Love is a wonderful thing… until it stinks. One moment, you’re flying on cloud nine, and the next moment your heart shatters into a thousand pieces. Today, for our first Friday the 13th episode of the year, we’re going to look into a few myths and superstitions about love related to animals. They could be harbingers of your future love, depending on what you see on Valentine’s Day or how many you’re able to count before shaking the hand of your spouse-to-be. We’ve also tracks from video games of animals in parallel to the animals: a drunk squirrel trying to get home, the mystical practice of bird watching, and a race to the finish line with horses. Following each original track is a cover or remix.
