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.

Remap Radio 09 - Hot Pod Summer

The crew meets under sweltering conditions to discuss how they're coping with the heat and how much they are suffering for their gaming. With her Steam Deck laboring under such conditions, Ren has been playing a bunch of retro-style games including HROT and Demon Lord: Reincarnation. Ren, Cado, and Patrick discuss Remnant 2 as a shockingly great co-op game, and Patrick is delighted by Viewfinder. Then the gang digs into the Question Bucket.

Remap Sports! Ep. 2 ft. Danny O'Dwyer

Shift+F1 and NoClip's Danny O'Dwyer comes to chat with Patrick and Rob about the Enhanced Games, pro cycling, the other football, celebrity team owners, and Irish sports. We probably talked about even more stuff but honestly it just turned into a good sports hang-out and bounced around a lot with increasingly little structure. Oh but there was a really good listener-submitted quiz that the gang took on pro cycling terms! That was great. Support the show: https://www.remapradio.com See omnystudio...

Remap Radio 06 - Do Pikmin Have Souls?

Jordan Minor, author of the upcoming book Video Game of the Year (featuring both Patrick and Austin!), joins the rest of the Remap Radio crew to discuss Steam trying to grapple with AI art, and what it means to create in a world of creation-focused algorithms. Elsewhere, we chat about Jordan plotting video game history through his book, Patrick’s played (and enjoyed!) the Pikmin 4 demo, Ren’s dumping many more CRPG hours into Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Tyranny , while Jordan wonders what Pokém...

Interview with "Citizen Sleeper" Developer Gareth Damian Martin

This is one of the first interviews Patrick recorded as a member of Remap Radio, finally reaching your ears! Patrick and Cado recall their time with Citizen Sleeper as an introduction to Patrick's interview with Gareth Damian Martin, the lead developer behind Citizen Sleeper. They talk about how Citizen Sleeper 2 isn't what you might expect out of a sequel, how it differs from the original both in setting and mechanics, and where both game's narrative inspiration comes from.

Remap Radio 05 - This Podcast Cost $200 Million to Make

As the Microsoft vs. FTC case winds down, the group discusses some of the headlines coming out of the courts, including the mega budgets behind AAA games, the studios Microsoft has considered buying, the possibility of Starfield being a PlayStation exclusive, and more. Elsewhere, Ren has been making poor economic choices in Etrian Odyssey HD, Patrick and Cado have been playing a ton of interesting Steam Next Fest demos, and Cado’s been trying Final Fantasy XVI. Out in the land of The Question Bu...

Ep 04 - The Hot Wizards Are Smoking

The world is going gaga for sexy elephant Mario! At least, that’s what the crew at Remap Radio is telling themselves as they recap Nintendo Direct, and wonder if Embracer is a pyramid scheme. Elsewhere, Patrick’s experiencing the highs (hot wizards) and lows (a world not worth exploring) of Final Fantasy XVI, Rob’s really come around on the new Star Trek game, and Ren’s playing [checks notes] every Armored Core. We also find some time for your questions. Support the show: https://www.remapradio....

My Turn - The Bourne Legacy

The Wheel of My Turn rolls ever onward! Rob's pick of The Bourne Legacy was partially a joke, a bit of a dare, but he didn't expect the universe would call his bluff! Remap is picking right up where Waypoint left off with this attempted spin-off sequel to the Bourne franchise that has a lot of "TNT Movie" energy, as Patrick put it. We discuss the very obvious studio influence over the film, the bits that were good, and the Jeremy Renner of it all. Support the show: https://www.remapradio.com See...

Remap Radio Episode 3 - A Summer Games Smorgasbord

We heard y’all like 5 star runtimes, so we put some interviews in your podcast and served up a quite frankly disgusting amount of megabytes for your listening pleasure. This is Remap’s first “event” as a company so we’ve gone absolutely hog wild on Summer Game Fest, both discussing standouts we saw during the myriad showcases and dropping interviews that Patrick did while out in sunny LA.

Sticking to Sports

Sports! on Waypoint is dead, long live Sports! on Remap. We kick off our return with a banger, as we discuss the NBA Finals by way of Jimmy Butler’s all-time playoff run and Nikola Jokic’s charming indifference towards being one of the best basketball players alive. Elsewhere, we attempt to unpack the PGA getting extremely cozy with Saudi Arabia after spending the past year talking crap about them, and answer listener questions, such as “What’s Chili Parlous?” Support the show: https://www.remap...

Episode 2 - A Summer Game Flop with Adam Conover

Adam Conover swings by to discuss the disappointments and surprises of Game Fest. Then he fills everyone in on the massive WGA strike that has brought Hollywood to a standstill, and which is increasingly gaining the support of other unions. Finally, the gang discusses Syndicate, and what they have had to go through to get it. Support the show: https://www.remapradio.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 1 - It’s Happening Again

Welcome to Remap Radio, a new podcast from the creators of Waypoint Radio. Rob, Patrick, and Cado gather to discuss what happened in the aftermath of being laid off, and how they ended up banding together to form a company and go into business together. What followed was an intense few weeks of talking with lawyers, searching for a new identity, and much more. We also spend time re-introducing ourselves. If you don’t know who we are, come say hello!
