Hello friends! We're back after a week off due to to some technical snafus to talk all about MULTIPLAYER! Where have we been, and where could we be going? We brought in the expert, Kevin 'KO' O'Rourke, to help us talk Tri Force Heroes, Four Swords Adventures, Hyrule Warriors, Cadence of Hyrule and more and what aspects of those games we'd want want to see IF multiplayer were to be added to Breath of the Wild 2. Come hang and debate along with us!

It's definitely no secret at all that Fire Emblem: Three Houses is taking over the world. Critically acclaimed and criminally addicting, the fellas have been playing so much of it lately we just had to talk about how a Zelda game would work in this style. Joined by Zelda Dungeons' own David Wayne Nystrom, we talk about how S supports might work, weapons triangles, could there be dungeons, what art style this game should be in, what kind of playable units we'd like to see, would we make this a canon game, and if so, where on the timeline does it go? We are breaking it down, so come join! As a bonus, for anyone like us addicted to Fire Emblem, we do a quick spoilercast on Three Houses at the end of the show - which house did we pick, what's up with Byleth, who are we getting hitched to, and more!

Hello friends. The episode that was originally supposed to come out last week is coming at you this week instead! Sorry for the delay, but some internet issues in California prevented our usual Monday upload last week. We hope that we can make it up to you, as this week, Gooey joins the Champions' Cast to play a fun game of 20 Questions, Zelda style.

Hey guys, and get ready for a very special episode!

Join Mases, Kevin, Gooey and I as we talk dungeons,bosses, and items! The audio is a bit rougher, but the atmosphere is super fun from behind the scenes of the Marathon! We hope you enjoy!
