I hope you enjoy the return of the Spiritual Street Fighter podcast, in which I (and, now, with friends!) discuss the deeper, psychological, existential, "meaning of life" "Why the heck do I do this?" aspects of fighting game competition.
This one is a RAW, UNFILTERED spiel recorded as a voice memo (audio decent but not superb, sorry) on my bed as I wrestled with what it means to "play just because I love to play" without defining myself by results, and whether that's even possible.
This is just a little morsel compared to next week's mammoth, piercing conversation with Billy Kane aka
@shoryushoryu aka BK, which spans everything from how to deal with online hate/trolls to the pitfalls of "really making it" always being just around the corner to who truly is "ASS (tm)" at these games.
Thanks to the people who told me they appreciated my initial run of episodes. My apartment flooded last year, and it took me FOREVER to get it restored (it was pretty much all covered by insurance, thankfully!) and then I shot myself in the foot with a lot of procrastination when it came to setting up my studio again (clearly, I could have just used some voice memos in the meantime...) but here we are, and it feels amazing to finally be creating again (and I'm almost done with my first original music recording in a couple of years, too!) I owe a lot of that to those who have explicitly given their support <3 thank you
