Love and Chickspace

Nikki is 13 days post-surgery, can't wear glasses, and is identifying the boys by their abs alone…which is honestly more functional than Infold's crisis PR strategy right now. This week, we’re actually doing a pretty serious episode and breaking down exactly what crisis PR is, how companies choose between silence, denial, and actually owning their mess, and why Infold's current spiral...

The Love and Deepspace fandom woke up to chaos — Infold officially cancelled Valko's launch 9 days before release, and they actually apologized. Nikki Tea (20-year gaming industry vet, currently 6 days post-surgery and running on fumes) and Mama Void (your emotional damage correspondent) go LIVE to process the news in real time as a live Episode Recording! Why did Infold pull the plug? Was thi...

Valko just dropped out of nowhere and the Love and Deepspace community is in absolute shambles. We're breaking down everything — the Super Moon watching event that left us spiritually bereft, the marketing strategy behind this reveal, and why the real villain here might be the drip marketing schedule, not the new boy. Nikki Tea dusts off her brand management credentials and climbs onto the soa...

Nikki Tea and Mama Void are back with a packed episode covering every new outfit, event, and Promise card — but the real moment is Nikki's full breakdown of the win-back promotion strategy targeting lapsed players. Mama Void issues a formal apology for manifesting Sad Caleb, and somehow Jane Austen, Casablanca, and flower-crown Dionysus all make the agenda. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Red dots, aggr...

Caleb's birthday event is here and we have THOUGHTS. 🍎✈️Mama Void recounts her dramatic gacha pull saga (spoiler: Caleb said "not today"...to himself?) while Nikki Tea's Game Dev Battle Girlie persona breaks down why Love and Deepspace's new player onboarding is designed to make you accidentally spend money. We also cover: why Caleb is the ultimate passenger princess, Gideon...

This week we're assigning Pokémon types and evolutions to the LADS boys, and the results are unhinged. Is Rafayel a fire-type who "doesn't even need a reason to kill you with fire"? Is Sylus just a legendary who punches things in the face? We have opinions. Then Nikki Tea puts on her Game Dev Battle Girlie hat and breaks down why Japan's LADS revenue is surging while download...

Sylus: Kitten Included finally dropped and somehow Infold looked directly into the fanfic archives and said yes, all of it. In this episode, Mama Void spirals into full kitten-mittens chaos while Nikki somehow also delivers a legitimate academic lecture on butt physics. Yes, with citations. Because that's who we are. This week we're breaking down: 🐱 Sylus: Kitten Included: the Billionaire...

The new 5-star Sylus solo card "Kitten Included" drops May 22nd — and somehow Infold looked directly into the fanfic archives and said yes, all of it. In this episode, Nikki Tea and Mama Void spiral into full kitten-mittens hysteria while somehow also doing real analysis about the…death of the solo banner? Caleb Promise Angst! Game Economics?!. Because that's who we are. This week we...

Rafayel ripped Mama's heart out before we even hit record. Episode 19 is here, and we are not okay — but we showed up anyway, and we brought chaos. We kick things off mid-trauma as Mama Void recovers from a Rafayel story event that had her crying before the podcast even started. Sylus gets called in for emotional support. Henry attacks the microphone. It's fine. Everything's fine. Then...

The boys hit the hot springs and we absolutely lost our minds. Episode 18 is here, y’all, and we have data, drama, and towel physics discourse. We also get into the Hot Springs event — Zayne, Sylus, and Caleb are out here making choices, and we have opinions about all of them. MANY opinions about them, and their little towels too… The Zayne Exclusive Tutorial event drops May 8-15 and we are braced...

Hooooly Cupcakes…Lingering Lust is here and the towels are smaller than ever. This week, Nikki Tea and Mama Void break down every outfit on the new banner– from Zayne's suspiciously tiny towel (and his lifelong obsession with neckwear, finally abandoned) to Caleb's mesh belt that can only be described as an “apple bottom protector.” Sylus brings a magical hoop chain and questionable towel...

Two chaotic besties. One emotionally devastating Sea God myth. One full business school breakdown on why gacha reruns exist—and why they are working on you by design. Mama Void cannot hold it together during Love and Depression. Nikki Tea cannot save her. The Sea God myth has claimed another victim and we are not even a little bit okay about it. But in the spirit of chaos and industry expertise, N...

It was Sylus’ birthday and we are not okay 🖤.In this episode, Mama Void ugly cried through Rainlit Night (twice), Nikki Tea clocked the broken nose (again), and somehow we ended up deep in a roller derby AU for all five boys.

 LADS made $40.7 MILLION in March 2026. We're processing it by talking about Caleb's ass cheeks. You're welcome. Nikki Tea and Mama Void are back with the receipts, the revenue reports, and the kind of emotional damage only Zayne's Foreseer Myth can inflict. This week: Sylus got put in a beanie (and we have opinions), Xavier is getting ANOTHER rerun sandwiched between heavy hitting...

Caleb didn't die for you; he became the Netherlord so you wouldn't have to and that's somehow so, so, SO much worse. 💔 Mama Void goes full mythology Google spiral on Caleb's Nether Lord myth, and we are NOT okay. This one broke her live on stream so of course, we had to sit down and talk about it. In this longer-than-normal Voidside Chat style episode: Android vs. Netherlord: why...

There is no introduction. There is only the Caleb trailer. We will not be taking questions. We are completely feral this week: the Caleb Myth trailer just dropped and we have thoughts , theories , and absolutely zero chill. Mama Void is rewatching it frame by frame (for science). Nikki Tea called the sword. Everyone is marrying Caleb. This is fine. This week on Love and Chickspace: - Caleb Myth Tr...

Nikki Tea has a theory: Sylus's nose is BROKEN, and she's building a whole crime scene investigation to prove it. Meanwhile, Mama Void is losing her mind over Rafayel's new Ebb and Flow style card: Rising Tides (btw: Lemurian "in heat" era confirmed?!), and we're ranking every rapport animation from wholesome to UNHINGED. In this episode we cover: - Sylus's Night of S...

Sylus said WHAT?! 😳 We react to the two new Promise Memories–Sylus: Rosy Hues and Zayne:Chasing Silhouettes–plus Rafayel’s new birthday card and wrap up Mortality’s Tenderness (ranked!) while completely losing it. You know, the usual…  Then Corporate Nikki drops an industry deep-dive on why mobile gaming revenue is up while downloads are DOWN　and what that means for your wallet as a gacha player...

Is Caleb actually evil, or just morally gray in Mortality’s Tenderness? We dive deep into the Master Herbalist lore as well as how much we love Xavier when he let’s go and has fun while exploring the chaos of the new MC personas (Mistress Thief with Zayne? Yes please!), and the absolute absurdity of the "ass-tapping" mini-game. In this episode of Love and Chickspace, Nikki Tea (Industry...

Love and Deepspace evol powers, Sylus, Zayne and Caleb discourse, and somehow we end up deep-diving cursed koala facts thanks to Xavier.

Join Mama Void (professional screenshot hoarder with 440+ Sylus files) and Nikki Tea (20-year industry veteran who thought “these...

Welcome to the episode where both hosts are sick as hell and operating on cold meds, spite, and the power of fictional men because we could NOT miss the new Mortality’s Tenderness trailer.
