Hey there. I just wanted to apoligize for so many delays lately with content on the channel. My work schedule was insane the past few weeks, and then I had to put Olympus down. And I have to be honest, I am still not entirely over his passing. I am going to try to get content up as soon and as often as I can. I haven't forgotten. I am just going through some things right now.

Awhile ago, I was asked to play The Sopranos: Road to Respect on PS2 for a paid request. I actually did play through the entire game and even put together a 4 hour playthrough of it. The plan was to also upload it to YouTube with an edited version for content and put the uncut version on my Patreon. Well...YouTube copyright claimed the hell out of the first part of what was going to be a 4 part let's play. I couldn't turn the copyrighted music off in the game either. And way too much of the game has the music in it to just mute select copyrighted tracks. I would just try to upload it as is with the copyright claims and monetization off, but there's so many claims that there is a high risk of the video getting copyright striked or muted.

So, my playthrough of this game is a Patreon exclusive for 5 dollar tiers and above. This wasn't planned this way, and I am not even making this post to try to get people to join my Patreon. I just wanted to give anyone that might be interested in seeing this let's play a heads up and letting them know how they can watch it. You don't even have to ask for a paid request if you join either. You can just kick in a few bucks just to watch the let's play and then cancel your tier later. It's ultimately up to you. I might try to post the let's play on a different video sharing site if I can and if I do? I will make another post about it with a link. But for now? It's a Patreon exclusive.

P.S. Thanks so much for the kind words and support after putting Olympus down. They all mean the world to me. And I got a lot more content coming very soon on the channel.

The day I was hoping didn't come, came today. I had to put Olympus down. He was getting worse, and I didn't want him to suffer. So we took him in to the vet today and he passed peacefully. We buried him in the yard and had a kitty funeral for him too. Rest in Peace Olly. I'll miss you.

It might be a bit of a longer delay for more videos, but I am going to take things day by day the best I can.

The Cable Guy review was screwed up and I am putting a temporary hold on requests for the next two weeks. I had to delete the review of The Cable Guy due to an editing error. I left out the entire ending of the video. I am reuploading the proper cut now. (It's up btw in case you're curious)

And speaking of reviews? I am still hard at work on watching and getting as many of the previous paid requests done as fast as I can. I am running into more delays lately though because of an increased work schedule at my job. A bunch of people quit recently so I am one of many that are now picking up the slack. So my part time job feels a lot more like a full time job currently. It's great in terms of a better paycheck, but it takes a ton out of me.

Because of this? I would probably recommend holding off on requests for at least a couple weeks. Let's just put a hold on them until the last week of June. That should be more than enough time to get through my backlog. Patreon requests though are still allowed as always. I hope everyone is doing well and take care.

Things don't look good for Olympus. I took him in a few months ago and the tests they did were all negative. And the vet told me his weight loss was diet related. Well, he's lost more weight since then, he's still struggling with keeping all his food down consistently, and he's having even more accidents around the house.

I might have to put him down. I am not sure yet, but the continual decline in weight, coupled with other issues like him just being a lot slower, and just not having the same energy definitely makes me feel like he's nearing the end. He's around 15 or 16. So this is right around the time cats start to decline health wise. I will keep hoping for the best, but I know that I don't want him to suffer. I am just at a crossroads right now with him. Do I let him get progressively worse and be in more pain? Or do I put him down now before things get worse? Either option is just heartbreaking for me currently.

Looks like I might have caught something again or I have the beginnings of another sinus infection starting...So if there is another long delay with content? That's the reason why. This always seems to happen when I am off from work and I am really starting to hit a good stride with catching up on videos. It's really annoying. But I will try to watch as much as I can so that way, I will get that part done despite feeling under the weather.

This wasn't just a chest cold. It was something a lot worse. I think it might have been COVID again. I am over the bulk of the symptoms now and feeling better. But I got some major brain fog and fatigue right now. The brain fog is scary. It makes me feel like I was abducted by aliens because time literally goes missing. So until those pass, I won't be making any new videos. I have been watching a lot of stuff though. So I will be almost caught up on just watching requests. I just need to record the videos once I am back to 100 percent. Thanks again for your patience and support. I appreciate it immensely. And hopefully it won't be long now until I am feeling better and back to uploading videos.

Welp. I caught a nasty chest cold that's apparently going around. Going to be on the shelf for at least a couple days. Just wanted to give you all a heads up. But as long as I am feeling ok enough to type? I will be continuing to post reviews of upcoming requests or films I will review on the channel on my Letterboxd page.

Well Olympus is declining health wise. He lost two pounds since his last visit and I just had all kinds of tests done on him today. I won't know what's wrong with him until tomorrow or later this week. The vet bill was insane and I couldn't afford it so my step dad helped me out. But I still have to pay him back. But there might be more added to it if he has to be put down, so I don't really know how much it will eventually cost just yet. Hours at work have slowed down considerably, and I am selling more of my collection to get more funds but it's going to be really tight for awhile. I will still get as many requests done as I can though. But if there are any further delays? I wanted to give you a heads up about it. Because things are pretty stressful right now and it doesn't look very promising for Olympus either or on the job front.

I'll take the hits though and keep on moving forward like I always do but it's going to be a tough next few months at least.

I have been talking about doing another live stream...and it's happening tomorrow at 5 PM pacific time. It will be the premiere of the new form of Physical Media Madness which will be a live stream multiple times a month starting in October with the first stab being on Sunday.
