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.

- In Pokémon Adventure Red Chapter, the episode covers Chapter 29 (Indigo League) which concludes the Kanto Saga *Phew*.

It really has been a while since I last played this game because I thought the Kanto Saga was much longer. There are still a few chapters left to do before setting off for the Orange Islands so we're not quite done with Kanto just yet. 

**Extra themes**
- Red vs Green (Indigo League Final) - Champion Battle [Pokémon HeartGold⁄SoulSilver]
- Indigo League Ending - Battle Tower [Pokémon Emerald]
- Epilogue - Pallet Town [Pokémon HeartGold⁄SoulSilver]

- Book 2 of The Circle continues, , this episode features the following parts:

- Can you put in a good word
- Mae knew intellectually
- The room was grand
- With True You
- OK, I know the initial reaction
- The night was cold
- Mae awoke
- But throughout the morning
- And then

Just a heads up - the remaining parts are enough for two more episodes so if you wanted to recommend, suggest or send me a copy of another audiobook that we can dive into next, now is the time to start sending them in. The Circle did get a sequel which came out a few years ago called The Every and that's what I've got in mind as the next book. Dion Graham who narrated the audiobook for The Circle was brought back to narrate The Every and at least this time the chapters are properly indicated haha. If you're interested in The Every then please look forward to that or if you want us to check out another book as a little break before The Every, let me know in time please.

**Tracklist (YouTube version)**
01 Pewter, Saffron & Viridian City [Pokémon HeartGold⁄SoulSilver]
02 Route 119 [Pokémon Ruby⁄Sapphire⁄Emerald]
03 Route 209 (Day) [Pokémon Diamond⁄Pearl⁄Platinum]
04 Victory Road [Pokémon FireRed⁄LeafGreen]

06 Rival Battle [Pokémon FireRed⁄LeafGreen]
07 Encounter Youngster [Pokémon FireRed⁄LeafGreen]
08 Ever Grande City [Pokémon FireRed⁄LeafGreen]
09 Bianca's Theme [Pokémon FireRed⁄LeafGreen]

Checking In (Friday 6 September 2024)

Hello hello, how's it going? I have some good news to share with you, something which I hope will be a nice way to end the week. Behold... It took a while but here we are with the internet upgrade that I had been hoping for. That's the router in the photo above, sitting on one of our old TVs in the dining room. Bought from one of the local mobile networks for $200 USD and monthly we'll be paying $45 for a 5mbps semi-unlimited data package (the actual data cap 1TB but nobody here will be live-streaming or online all day everyday so I doubt we'll reach that cap...unless of course someone decides to save all their super downloading for the days just before the subscription ends. Hmm...). For any of you reading this and shaking your head at the price and the speeds for that price, I totally understand because I know it's a rip off but that's the best package being offered currently outside of what Elon Musk's Starlink is apparently asking for (lowest price is ab...
