“Alas, this twilit world is too full of pain and contradiction, too full of broken dreams.”

It's the newest game we've ever covered on Cane and Rinse. Probably. But also, it's 20 years old. What gives? Leon, Brian, Leah and Ryan - along with contributions from the listenership - jump right back into Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, hyphen and all. The panel gets into the usual forensic dissection of the 2004 follow-up to the N64 original Paper Mario - and we talk about the 2024 version for the Switch too.
