Navigating Freelance Uncertainty

We’re pleased to welcome former Polygon senior reporter Nicole Carpenter to Remap Radio this week, joining Patrick, Cado, and Janet as they talk through Polygon’s surprising implosion. Elsewhere, we wonder if Marathon is cooked, bring back the classic Buying or Selling segment to consider using ChatGPT to plan a five-year-old’s birthday party, and talk about a bunch of games, including Death Stranding, Hopshot, Despelote, Blue Prince, Roblox (??), and more. Oh, and in The Question Bucket, Patrick receives moral support for his wet shoe situation.
