The Hidden Palace is back for 2026 as Skyblaze talks about some truly bizarre SEGA peripherals and controllers.

Chapters:

With Radio Redux on the cusp of a major milestone, Kevin turns to the past for a bit of a filler show. Winding the clock back to the Beta test for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and what would end up being the first go at the Persona festival.

Feniiku is streaming the game, and looking for friends to drop in. Kevin, with nothing to do, pops in and is introduced to Feniiku’s old friend Luna Arcana (now Arcanos). Thus begins a beautiful friendship and the forming of the three into a terrifying bad racing outfit: the birth of Team Terribad. And discovering Kevin can do an eerily accurate Jet The Hawk voice.

What games HAVEN’T made the game of the year 2025 list? There’s some surprising choices from the boys.

The boys continue to look back on 2025’s games of the year and the inevitable happens – someone chooses Hollow Knight: Silksong – but who?

With LMC Cast at an end, Urtheart, Turbo and ShadowFox bring their traditional end of year review show over to Radio Redux. But which new games played by the LMC boys in 2025 caught their eye?

Radio Redux is back, with a new look and format – but first it’s time for WinterFest 2025 over at RadioSEGA. Team RadioSEGA (Viper, Skyblaze, Greyfore) and Team LMC (T.A. Black, Urtheart, ShadowFox) are assembled once more for 3 hours of fun as Kevin hosts a decider in their best of three quiz.

Including the return of Hedgehogs and Hand Grenades, a surprising fantasy adventure replacement for Only Kev-ect, a new round called Six Degrees of Desperation and of course the climactic Next Lines round. Who will win, and what sneaky tricks are up Kevin’s quizmaster sleeve?

Season 10 of Radio Redux comes to an end as we skip back and forth in time between a lost 2024 discussion about the Sonic Symphony event (and gaming fandom in general) and Turbo and Ninten looking back on it being a year since London’s Miku concert.

As everyone contrasts and compares, Kevin mulls over the upcoming Sonic Con and drawing a line for himself – in feeling responsible for the community any more.

After Kevin introduced Urtheart to the wrestling concept of ‘The Forbidden Door’ last week, the pair continue their discussion about the partnerships of Sonic Racing: Crossworlds.

From Mega Man design cues, lamentations about which Turtles are being used and Kevin trying to explain to Urtheart how Avatar: The Last Airbender worked. Before going through all the various options you could add in from both Sonic and SEGA franchises given what they’ve got planned for their legacy/all-star series. From how cool it is for Mephilies to be the Sonic franchise’s ‘Schrodinger’s Cat’ villain, and the narrative possibilities going forward – and why he absolutely SHOULDN’T be in. To Hatsune Miku and Majima running off to have a night out and the associated Summer of Sonic 2026 idea that Kevin would put into place.

And given Sonic is selling out to literally anyone for a buck at present, Kevin uses Funko Fusion as a guide as to which franchise would play nice for some money, with more and more ludicrous suggestions until the whole show nearly falls apart. It’s ALL happening! It’s ALL canon! And if you don’t like it, well it’s ALL Rexy’s fault!

“I pity the fool who listens to SEGA of America.” This week’s show was close to the wire, but it’s definitely worth it as Urtheart and Kevin continue to discuss Sonic Racing: Crossworlds and the Minecraft festival as well as a whole host of other gaming topics.

Including Battlefield 6 taking over everything on GamesSpot, Mortal Kombat and video game movies, why the Broken Sword series might want to try a little harder at its marketing, and SEGA getting the Olympics licence back by the power of Green Amy Rose.

Plus Kevin proposes how to break a million Sonic fan hearts – and corrects Urtheart on something Cornish? The sacrilege!

After a busy week, Kevin decides the best way of getting a radio show about Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds done is to invade Turbo’s Twitch livestream while he and Urtheart and playing it. After all, the Hatsune Miku festival for it is on – even though its shelf life is extremely limited, as he’ll explain.

It’s either that or explain just what else has been going on in the Sonic community this week and errrrrrrrr…. yeah, best not.
