- I discussed some of my current series and some ideas for future series and during that bit, I mentioned a number of games including Raft, Satisfactory, Vintage Story, Cubic Odyssey, Planet Coaster, and Parkitect.
- While talking about amusement and theme parks, I specifically mentioned the Ghost Town at Knott’s Berry Farm and Main Street USA at Disneyland.
- During my grandpa moment talking about theme parks, I also mentioned the Rollercoaster Tycoon series of games.
- While flying to the flying island, I mentioned that these little islands are in this world courtesy of the Laendli Transport mod.
- I had a bit of a flashback that reminded me of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. It also got me to thinking about a lot of the things I saw in the movie that were so typical of the late 1970’s.
- Flying by the lava pool reminded me of the needless accidents that happen in Yellowstone National Park every year, and I talked about that.
- While talking about local wildlife sightings (bears, cougars, and bobcats), I mentioned that the green spaces in our area are connected to the forests that reach up into the Cascade Mountains.
- When I said that I was going to put the dirt across from the Stones, I made sure to clarify that I was not talking about Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including some general Ragtime links and whatever information I can find on the particular tracks I used in this episode.
