  Loading Screens and Memory Cards is a nostalgic journey through the golden age of gaming — from Christmas mornings spent unwrapping new consoles to late-night sleepovers lit by the glow of CRTs. 
  If you remember blowing on cartridges, swapping cheat codes in the schoolyard, or fighting over who got the “good” controller, this book is for you. 
  Join Flandrew, known for his YouTube channel celebrating classic games, to look back at the consoles, games, and memories that defined a generation — the PlayStation 2 era, the GameCube’s weird charm, the chaos of birthday party split-screen, and the pure joy of discovering new worlds before microtransactions and day-one patches. 
  Funny, heartfelt, and packed with stories any 90s or 00s gamer will relate to, this is a love letter to the days when “please wait…” meant you had a moment to dream.

  “Mbona is a Zulu word meaning ‘I see’. 
  Mbona Private Nature Reserve is a glorious slice of paradise nestled in the KwaZulu-Natal midlands, South Africa, which I have the privilege to call home.  
  These stories, which were gathered over many years of living on Mbona, were originally intended to be a podcast, but then I decided to compile them into this audiobook. 
  Herein I share moments, experiences, events, and memories. I’m sure those who know Mbona will relate to much that is shared here, but whether you know Mbona or not, I do hope that you will be inspired to adventure and make your own treasured memories. 
  Happy listening, happy memory making.”

  Man In My Head Has Lost His Mind...

  The howl of the bedside clock-radio carves through your dreams like a buzz-saw through butter, and you are awake. In another place. 
  Never mind the bright yellow sunlight that flecks your pillow and warms your face; you are rudely awake, and resent it. Gah! 
  You roll onto your side, cantilever your legs over the side of the bed and plant your feet squarely on the carpet. You rub your face. Massage your neck. Oh, what it is to be alive!--and conscious--oh oh oh, indeed. 
  But what is it to be alive, and conscious? 
  Alive, we have some inkling of; you eat, you sleep, you exercise. You stay healthy and keep your body going as best you can. But conscious? What even is that? 
  A good question is what that is, and a question for which this book has an answer. 
  So in this text, first I set the scene:Did our consciousness evolve?Does consciousness give us free will?Which animals do we think are conscious?Where does consciousness go when we sleep?How does consciousness deliver meaning?What might a theory of consciousness look like? 
  Then I propose:A model for consciousness at the macro scaleA mechanism for consciousness at the micro scale 
  Finally, I suggest some real world tests that science will one day be able to perform which will either corroborate or invalidate the theory I present here. This is a workable, testable theory. Science and philosophy demand nothing less. 
  A must-listen for the curious-minded, which you are, are you not? So listen on...
