Game developer Jandê Saavedra Farias calls in from Brazil to share his thoughts about Sonic Movie 3... but first, we put the Year of Shadow & Knuckles in review with Grant, Bo, and David, plus an extra dose of Smoovies.

Co-producer Tyson Hesse and screenwriters Pat Casey & Josh Miller talk with us about crafting the Sonic the Hedgehog movie trilogy. Although we do talk about Sonic 3 (in theaters now), you'll be pleased to know we avoided spoilers, so listen in confidence.

Recorded during the broadcast of The Game Awards, David & Grant welcome Bo back and get updated on the Rings of Saturn. Then, it's time to catch up on Sonic 3 Movie Marketing and a mailbag prompt that covers the entire game canon. And somewhere in there, we're taken by surprise by the new game announcement!

Our friend Barry the Nomad returns to the show to catch up with David & Grant about Sonic x Shadow, and to discuss their anticipation for the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog 3 film — in theaters December 20!

Jack of Old Games returns to the show on a week without Bo, and together with David & Grant, the trio discuss the possibility of a Sonic 06 remake and various other topics.

Animator and author Ashlyn Anstee returns to the show to talk about Shadow the Hedgehog, Chao Gardens, and also to read the fortune for the show's future!

Our friends, animator/creator Matt Braly and cartoonist/creator Sam Logan, join the show to discuss their thoughts on Sonic x Shadow Generations, with a deeper dive into the new lore! Ohhhhhhh, folks!

It's finally here! Recorded the day before the official launch of Sonic x Shadow Generations but a few days after its early release, the boys discuss their initial thoughts about Sonic Team's latest game. Is the episode full of fanboy gushing? Or are there spicy hot takes to be had? Listen and learn, friend!

This week, we're joined by Geoffrey Golden to learn about what it's like designing the narratives of and writing for video games. As usual, we find ourselves taking detours to Archie Comics lore along the way, and there's some additional surprises too. Enjoy!

Concluding a long-running storyline, Grant finally completed Sonic Unleashed — with a little help from friends like Bo, that is — and shares thoughts on Eggmanland and the endgame. Then, David the Lurker shares thoughts on the conclusion of Sonic x Shadow Dark Beginnings and overall it's a very good episode, no notes, and definitely no weird ending.
