March 26, 2019 Episode 52 - Definitively Ranking Every Dungeon from Ocarina of Time!
Can you believe it's been an entire year of The Champions' Cast? In a very special show, Andy and Taylor reflect back on the show's beginnings and give thanks to everyone who helped it along the way before diving into a deep conversation about their favorite game: Ocarina of Time! The fellas rank all the dungeons in the game, plus all the mini dungeons, and even both the N64 and 3DS version of the Water Temple for good measure!
Plus, there's a brand new Zelda game! Cadence of Hyrule gets some love on the show before promising to dive deep into that next week! This will be a show you don't want to miss! From both of us, and everyone at Zelda Dungeon, thank you for making The Champions' Cast such a success!

March 19, 2019 Episode 51 - Picking Out Our Favorite Piece of Zelda Music
If you didn't already know, the Champions' Cast is all about cheap plugs, and this week we take it to the extreme: we play a game based off our Musical March Madness tournament (which if you haven't checked it out, A) it's going on right now, and B) WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?). We take the bracket and pick our own winners... with some back and forth negotiations in there to determine some winners and losers. It was a fun ride, and for maximum listening pleasure, play along and decide what song would win if YOU were in charge of proceedings!

Will this be The Wind Waker 2.0? How much is this gonna cost? Do we find the anime to chibi style jarring? Is this remake connected to Breath of the Wild at all?
