Still Loading #258: New Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo DS)

Not ONLY are Dexter Morrill and I covering the Super Mario Super Show but we are also doing the Legend of Zelda cartoon! This was my (Josh's) first time watching the cartoon in earnest and man..... I got opinions. But since the Zelda cartoon aired right after Super Show it felt right to cover it. Join Dex and I's foray into animated Hyrule and all that it entails. How much will Zelda need to excuse Link!? Why is Link so a creep!? Listen and find out!

Ya'll knew as soon as a Bluey video game came out that there would be an episode on this right? It's finally here. I'm joined by my good friend Jordan Kuhns to talk about everyone's favorite australian heeler and her first foray into gaming. We spend the first portion of the episod talking about the game but the vast majority of it is us talking about our love of the show and everything it means to us. It's truly hard to describe how much this show means to me and I am beyond happy to finally get a chance to talk all about it.

I, your loyal host Josh, started Still Loading nearly 10 years ago and I honestly had no idea where it would take me. Apparently it has taken me at least up to episode 300 and soon it will be the 10th anniversary of the show! But let's focus on this episode right here, this is episode 300. I figured the best way to celebrate 300 episodes of the podcast was to do something I've become known for over the past few years, and that is video game fantasy drafts. This is The Super Mario Fantasy Draft. Joining me to draft their ideal Mario games are 4 wonderful guests, follow them all with the links below!
