Checking In (Monday 7 September 2026)

By
Last week was one of those weeks where things start busy at the end of last weekend and just carry on being busy until the next weekend. Busy at work and busy at home because we had a house guest that showed up last Sunday and departed Saturday morning. This is why I wasn't active during the week and it was only yesterday when I got something out. Not exactly a great start to the new month but it's another week now so this can count as Great Start (Take 2). Hopefully that also doesn't count as a jinx because it's when I'm planning things out or looking forward to something, stuff gets in the way and it happens so often that I've noticed.  I want to throw in a little reminder about the Saturday edition of Weekend Bonus Stage having two episodes of The Circle remaining. I wrote about this in the Show Notes for Episode 23 and had asked for anyone to chime in with recommendations and suggestions for the next fiction audiobook that we can get into. That episode came...

Weekend Bonus Stage (August 2026)

Welcome to Bonus Stage! This is where you'll find the links to as well as show notes for the ROM hacks, other games and audiobooks featured in each episode during the month. If you have any comments, feedback, recommendations or suggestions for future episodes please leave all that in the comments section for this post and not the comments sections of the other platforms where the episodes will be posted, because it would really suck if you left your stuff there and *Poof* that platform is either gone, turned to crap or my account there is deleted haha (I'm trying not to jinx THIS site 😅). I hope you enjoy this series, thanks for watching and listening. You can support Weekend Bonus Stage and any of the other content that I do  (Pokémon ROM hack walkthroughs, DJ sets, manga/comic audio series, Gaming History (Extended Mix) and more) from here https://mrtkallen.blogspot.com/2023/09/support.html Weekend Bonus Stage archive: https://archive.org/details/weekend-bonus-stage Previ...

Checking In (Sunday 9 August 2026)

By
Happy Sunday, how's your weekend been? I'm pleased to report that I'm much better than I was last weekend, when I felt as if I was one twitch away from coughing up my remaining lifespan haha. It wasn't just terrible, it sucked. Having a runny nose should be punishment enough. I still have a lingering cough and the old nose hasn't completely stopped leaking yet but other than that, I'm doing fine and should be active again next week after the extended (political) holiday weekend.  As of a couple of weeks ago, you can find me on Substack as well now. Just like with Ko-fi it's another way for people to support me and the content since I've stepped away from Patreon. It'll also serve as another place where you can watch, listen to or even read (if I decide to start publishing walkthroughs there too) what I post there.   Many thanks to you and all who have been checking out Gaming History (Extended Mix) , especially those who enjoyed the #MonarchyGamingH...

Welcome to Gaming History (Extended Mix) ! This is a video series that serves as an "extended" version of #MonarchyGamingHistory , a regular segment on the Tuesday (tech news) edition of the Morning Monarchy radio show (hosted by James E. Pilato of Media Monarchy ).  **Update: Monday 13 July 2026** Initially I had planned for this series to be a one-episode-per-week series, following after that Tuesday's #MonarchyGamingHistory segment. I realise now that two episodes per week is the sweet spot, which would allow for episodes that can cover "honourable mentions" or subjects which I don't think would make it on the segment, as well as events which I've missed and would like to shine a spotlight on. These can be featured on episodes released either on Mondays or Tuesdays (latest) while the episodes released later in the week feature what I would've prepared for the segment. If you like this content and the other work that I do (Pokémon ROM hack walkthr...
