Enthusiastic Rest: Recent Episodes
Niko _____
A show to talk you to sleep with an endless stream of words about nothing important. Transcripts at cohost.org/enthusiastic-rest.
The quiet version of Enthusiastic Rest is for people who want a softer listening experience without fiddling with any volume settings on their device.
Tonight, I ramble about one of my niche fields of knowledge: cyberpunk, and especially cyberpunk derivatives nobody's ever heard of. Featured in this episode:
- A not-so-brief possibly-apocryphal history of noir, cyberpunk, and punk music itself
- So is your cyberpunk cyberpunk, post-cyberpunk, or cyberpunk (again)?
- Why steampunk feels so different from cyberpunk
- How we could have had so much more than vaporwave Spongebob
- Why hope is radical, but cannot be an entire politic
- And more!

Tonight, I ramble about the many tabletop roleplaying games I've played, or at least have enough experience with to confidently just start talking. Featured in this episode:
- Lukewarm takes about why D&D is bad
- Seriously I go on about why I don't like D&D and its peers so much
- My bias towards Powered by the Apocalypse games
- A sampling of niche games you probably haven't heard of
- Me accidentally thinking Shut Up & Sit Down's videos on Spire: The City Must Fall and Heart: The City Beneath were made by People Make Games
- And more!
