Pancake Racing Frenzy, Smuggled Snakes, & Nostalgic Gaming Waves

Weird World Variety with Matt and Jesse

Ever sprint down Main Street with a frying pan in hand? Welcome to my solo venture this week on Weird World Variety, where I whisk you away to Olney, England, to uncover the quirky charm of pancake racing. It’s a tale of tradition, aprons, and some seriously skilled pancake flipping, all set against the backdrop of Lenten preparations. While Jesse's off, I'm stirring up nostalgia with a dash of my own family’s cinnamon roll ritual on holidays, and inviting you to consider if your town's customs could stack up to these festive, floury dashes.
Then, we set sail in the digital seas with a look at Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Skull and Bones, two games charting courses through uncharted waters of nostalgia and next-gen graphics. The remake of a classic RPG offers a world brimming with freedom and familiar faces, while the latest pirate saga has us yearning for the thrill of naval combat, despite leaving us land-locked on previous-gen consoles. Grab your gamepad and your sense of adventure as we navigate these groundbreaking titles and weigh anchor on the possibilities they bring to the horizons of gaming.
