Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once a Week, a weekly newsletter powered by your Patreon contributions. Every week, we run down the biggest stories in gaming with a mixture of news and personal thoughts. While the obvious news to cover is the Nintendo Direct this week, we did kind of aptly cover that show with 2023-02-11 00:41:48 +0000 UTC View Post
Welcome to Materia Possessions! This week, Nerium, Andrea, and Imran talk about finishing Fire Emblem Engage, the Simon's Quest-ness of Infernax, Hi-Fi Rush, Magic the Gathering, Persona 3 Portable, and even a weird digression into Big Bang Theory. Why? I assure you that none of us know.
The crew also covers this week's Nintendo Dire...
2023-02-10 18:17:35 +0000 UTC View PostHello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once a Week, a Patreon-fueled weekly newsletter where we talk about the biggest stories in gaming over the past week. There’s a lot to cover this week, so let’s just roll right into it.
It’s sort of grim that last week’s newsletter is already slightly out of date — not in the sense that any of the information in it is incorrect or that I wasn’t hard enough on the corporate apathy of human lives angle, but that there’s been a...

It's Materia Possessions time, maybe the most popular gaming podcast in New Zealand! This week, John, Natalie, Mike Williams, and Imran get together to speak about Forspoken, engage about Fire Emblem Engage, and....season about Season. Is th...
2023-01-26 21:38:04 +0000 UTC View PostIt’s been about a month since the last newsletter, which is my fault, as I’ve been traveling for the holidays/work and been generally busy. Combined with a lack of news for January, I kind of let the newsletter slide a bit. It’s understandable if you deleted your Patreon subscription, but the next few months should have quite a bit more co...

It's the final Materia Possessions of the year! Join Imran, Natalie, Michael P. Higham, and Mike Williams in covering a bevy of holiday games like the end of God of War: Ragnarok (minimal spoilers), Crisis Core and Final Fantasy VII Remake (slightly mor...
2022-12-24 01:34:38 +0000 UTC View PostHello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter where we cover the most interesting things happening in the world of video games. Well, usually. This week’s a little light as we wind down the year and many of the biggest stories are simply continuances of last week’s late-hitters. Still, a few interesting things d...
2022-12-17 00:25:47 +0000 UTC View PostWhat a week for video game news. Also, what a week for having to lock down my Twitter account, huh? I’m less mad and more just completely disappointed that people on the internet can still act like this in 2022. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, let’s leave it at that and you can investigate if you really need to. Apparently the ...

We're back! After taking a break for Thanksgiving and various life to-dos, we've returned with a gigantic two-and-a-half-hour behemoth of an episode and we somehow didn't even get to all the segments we wanted to hit.

2022-12-09 22:39:55 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once a Week for the first-ever December edition. They say time moves faster as you age so years pass by much quicker than they would if you were younger, which is observably true, but there’s a kind of weird stasis that the last few years have felt like where they’re simultaneously super lo...
2022-12-02 23:53:12 +0000 UTC View PostHello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once a Week, the weekly newsletter in which I talk about video game news and my own thoughts about whatever is going on in the world of gaming and entertainment this week. Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate it — it’s perfectly valid to spend Thanksgiving on your own just doing or eating w...
2022-11-26 01:17:40 +0000 UTC View PostHi and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week! We’re a little late this week because I am in Tokyo and also misunderstood how timezones worked. I have spent most of my time here in Japan working in an office, but this weekend I had a little time to hit both the Nintendo Store and Pokemon Center. It’s good that Japan is open again, but ...
2022-11-19 16:08:01 +0000 UTC View PostThis is the third episode of Materia Possessions and most likely the last one on Patreon hosting without a RSS feed! That process has been delayed by many things, including travel and getting sick, but we should finally get rolling.
This episode also features theme music for the first time from producer Jordan Mallory (2022-11-12 18:47:15 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week! I’m still recovering from COVID, but I’m at least out of the woods and onto the grassy path back home at the moment. I’ve got a few topics I wanted to cover this week, though, so let’s start a little spicy to clear our throats.
Welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, the weekly newsletter where I run down some news in games from the past week. Well, usually that’s the case, but this week it’s a COVID edition. After nearly three years of dodging this ridiculously communicable airborne disease, I finally got infected due to a flight from Baltimore where some gu...
2022-11-05 00:42:18 +0000 UTC View PostHey! It's the second episode of Materia Possessions! This week, we've got Nerium Strom, Andrea Shearon, Michael Higham, and I talking about the Final Fantasy XVI trailer, other podcasts that we have shouted on major platforms that are not this podcast, Gotham Knights, The Callisto Protocol, and more.
Next episode in two weeks should bring ...
2022-10-28 22:40:59 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, the weekly newsletter where I try to go over some gaming stories from the past week and provide my thoughts on them. This one is going to be a bit shorter because I’m currently writing it from a Baltimore hotel room while I attend a friend’s wedding, but I’ll try to pack in what I can here.
... 2022-10-28 16:51:51 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week. We’re a little late this week because there’s a lot to talk about. Also I think, unless Patrons feel really strongly the other way, this newsletter might just go fully public too. Undecided, but I think it’s best to just make it public while I’m hemming and hawing on it.
So, let's start this off with a mea culpa: some reporting I did about Resident Evil 4's remake early this year was wrong...
2022-10-20 22:25:32 +0000 UTC View Post[Code for this game was provided by Ubisoft but there was no discussion, nor would I ever allow discussion, of content aside from embargo timing.]
The original Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle from 2017 is maybe the foremost example of a l...
2022-10-17 16:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostHello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week. This is one of those weeks where I assumed I had way more time than actually exists, so I’ll be integrating some stuff I planned to write over this week into this newsletter. There’s kinda just not a lot in the news this week, so!
We're experimenting a bit by making things public ...

This is...really ramshackle! I'm sorry! But here's the first ever episode of Materia Possessions, the newest podcast from the former 99 Potions crew.
You might be asking questions like, where's the RSS feed? How can I actually listen to this? And ...

Okay, so, when I had planned this Patreon out, I figured that the first few things would be public and everything after would go Patron-only. The hope would be that Patrons would get everything and feel like the Patreon cost is worth it.
But, upon...
