  • In Which Our Hero's Journey Finally Comes to an End

    It’s over, at long last…

    Ness’s fearsome foe is defeated, the world is saved, the Chosen Four are okay, we’re all gonna be okay!

    Now then, boys and girls, just follow the bouncing ball, and a one and a two…


    🎶 Grown-ups have done so much more stuff than me
    There's many things that I still want to see
    Now I take my backpack to the world
    and fill it with memories
    My favorite baseball cap rests on my head
    My worn out sneakers, faded white and red
    My own guitar pick, shiny and clear
    Safe in my pocket, right here
    Though sometimes I got sad and almost cried
    You were right there with me, by my side
    I knew we were friends to the core
    But maybe it was something more

    🎶 Together, we walked that road for so long
    We laughed, we played, we got hurt, we grew strong
    When taking short-cuts, and getting lost
    I learned what I'd known all along
    That even if you can't put faith in those
    Who you meet, and lose, and love, and hug
    Overall, you just can't give up
    Believing in your friends
    And just by being there, you've woken me
    Just by being who you'd always be
    Now I see, you helped me to know
    The stronger, happier me
    Like a gentle breeze, through the grass and the pine trees
    You always wore a smile

    🎶 Now we, who shared our
    Smiles and Tears... (I miss you)
    We two are now far apart...

  • In Which Our Hero Faces the Destroyer of Worlds

    This is it! Everything has been leading up to this episode, this grand momentous battle. 

    The Phase Distorter is complete, and now there is only one thing left for the Chosen Four to do: travel millions of years into the past and face Giygas, the Destroyer of Worlds... where he...

    And he has... oh. Oh my...

    He's...

    Uh... I'm gonna sit this one out folks, it's too scary! You're on your own till next Monday!

  • In Which Our Hero Goes Home Again

    We’re at the home stretch! Ness now has awesome psionic power crackling at his fingertips, and the only thing left to do is prepare for the final battle against Giygas, the Destroyer of Worlds!

    With the help of Dr. Andonuts, and a few cute fluffy little friends, the Chosen Four decide to travel deep into the past and strike at Giygas at his weakest point. The only problem is, Dr. Andonuts needs a power source for his new machine, and the only one it can take is an extraterrestrial rock! Luckily, Ness knows exactly where to find a big rock that came from another planet…

    Will the Chosen Four get their hands on a sample of the mysterious Zexonyte ? Will Ness’s newfound ice powers pull through for him in the end, or maybe Jeff’s newly-made Pencil Eraser AND Eraser Eraser, or maybe Paula’s ability to flip her eyelids back (probably not, but they’re all fun to do anyhow)? Will they have the courage to confront the entire Starman army, and its leader the Starman Deluxe, with a little help from his… family?!

  • In Which Our Hero Gets the Power

    Ness learned some mind-blowing truths about important people from his past and what he’s up against in his future. Now it’s time to get out of Magicant!

    …which is easier said than done. He has to cross a whole plain full of monsters from his nightmares, trek a whole ocean of black mucky slime, and face down his worst nightmare… Only then will he gain the power he needs to protect his friends and withstand the onslaught of the Destroyer of Worlds himself!

    Will “Ness an hour from now” be able to count on “Ness an hour ago?” Will his courage, his red cap, and trusty Gutsy bat be enough for the ordeal? Will he finally unlock the secret to wielding psionic power?!

  • In Which Our Hero Goes Into His Own Mind

    Ness wakes to find himself in a strange cartoon world, called Magicant. Existing solely within his own mind, created with the power of the Sanctuaries, unlocked with the Soundstone, and full of wacky visions of people he knew in waking life, good friends and bad friends, Ness wanders around the dream world and tries against all odds to make it all make sense. Worst of all, he has to do it while walking around completely… in his pajamas. 

    But it’s not all just squeaky ground, huge vegetables growing like trees, and all his friends wearing ridiculous animal costumes. Here, Ness will encounter incredible truths about his friends, his family, his sworn enemy, even ugh, PORKY, and even his ultimate destiny, all while in this extremely silly place.

    Will Prince Poo keep those tiger footy pajamas around? Will “steak flakes” stirred into a batter and baked in the oven taste just as good as the real thing? And will Ness discover the true reason why he was chosen to lead the four in the War Against Giygas?

  • In Which Our Hero Listens to a Melody

    It’s only a few miles to the last sanctuary, our thermoses are full of hot cocoa, our backpacks are full of donuts, it’s ten degrees Fahrenheit outside and we’re not even wearing jackets. Hit it!

    The Chosen Four make the trek to Stonehenge, where the elusive last melody waits for Ness to record in his Soundstone. But if you think they’re getting at it without tangling with a fearsome guardian, meeting an odd companion, and learning a thing or two about the world they live in first, well… have you even been listening to this podcast all this time?! 

    Will Ness and his friends devise a winning strategy against the dynamo of destruction itself, the Electro-Specter? Will they discover the secrets of the Stonehenge monument’s long (and I do mean loooong) existence? And will Ness finally hear the complete melody of the Soundstone at long last?
