Welcome to the Sporn Shunks, episode 397 for Monday, April 13th, 26. This is a podcast all about

Minecraft, available across all major podcast platforms, including a video version that goes out on

YouTube and Spotify. If you're enjoying the show, consider subscribing wherever you're listening to this.

My name is Johnny, but the internet knows me as pixel riffs, and joining me from Planet Earth, it's Joel Duggan.

Hi, Joel.

Hello, I am firmly on the ground on Earth, but there were four humans that were not for the last 10 to 12 days.

And Johnny and I were talking about the Artemis II mission for people that were not for the last 10 to 12 days. And Johnny and I were talking about the

Artemis II mission for people that are not aware. That all came to a successful finale on Friday

night. I watched it live. Johnny watched a bunch of clips over the weekend. So that's what we spent

most of the render distance talking about, which is the pre-show. It's something that our patrons get

access to every single week. We do extra content both before and after the podcast. You can get to that at patreon.com slash the spawn chunks. Sponsoring at any level, get you access to the render distance. It gets you access to the bonus shows that we do once a month and the bonus shows that we do once a quarter. And those are both coming up. We've got one at the end of April where we talk with our patrons about what they've been doing in Minecraft and then we have one coming up in May, which is the quarterly hangout. And that's where we talk about the podcast, like the YouTube numbers and the downloads and the plans for the future and all that stuff. So if those are things that interest you, check out the render distance at patreon.com slash the spawnchunks.

For the rest of this show, we're going to be talking about the chaos cube snapshots arriving in Java edition.

And the chunk mail inbox has some timely ideas about the sulfur cubes.

So we're going to be getting into that after we've done our quick login for the week.

And let's start with you, Joel, keeping things in the science fiction rather than the science reality.

What's new on The Citadel this week?

You know, it's funny that you mentioned that because all this week and weekend playing Minecraft in a sci-fi build,

I just felt energized and inspired from watching the Artemis 2 stuff for the last week or so on

YouTube on the NASA channel. And I really wanted to try and make a lot of headway. So I took

the progress that I had made on the West Wing design, some changes that I was happy with.

And I just decided to take the week to not have to think too hard about design and just

implement those design changes back to the north and the east wing.
