Whenever a mascot approaches any level of success, a slew of licensed toys and trinkets crawl out of the dirt onto store shelves! On this Bonus Episode, Tay hosts a presentation about Jakks Pacific - the current holder of the Sonic toy license - and gushes about how great these little things are. They touch on figures from the past, revel in the melted glory of Tomy collectibles, and hold their nose at the Resaurus attempt at collectibles! Tune in to hear how these two feel about this new offering of desk-side collectibles!

The adventure continues! Dan and Tay return to the fold to chat about all the other characters in this jumble, and all the fun inbetween each! Come listen as they exposit the same over-arching plot multiple times in a row, get wet and wild with some terrible fishing, and embrace the silly nature of a traumatized robot! There may also be some discussion about feet in here. Don't say I didn't warn you.

We're not quite ready to leave the past behind! On this holiday season, Dan and Tay live up to the Radio name and host their very own music wrap-up awards show! They discuss many of the classic soundtracks that came before, and place them in arbitrary categories that mean nothing. That's how these things typically go, right? They also read out an endearing fan letter that had some fun things to say about Sonic R! And don't fret, listener - these two still get up to audio antics as they discuss which president would make a better replacement in Adventure 2. Relax, get your family together, and tell these two that their pics for this year's awards show are wrong!

It's here, listeners.....our first-ever TWO PART EXTRAVAGANZA analyzing and celebrating the blue blur's first-ever full 3D game on the Dreamcast! Dan and Tay reunite once more to have a lengthy chat about the nuances of this commercial success, from ad-spaces in magazines, shipping off the crew to explore Mayan ruins, and an in-house contest to redesign Sonic. They dive deep into the bombastic soundtrack compositions, the new adventure stylings, and all the growing pains in-between! Has this aged particularly well? Does the translation and voice direction add to this, or take them out of the experience? Who smells the worst in the Sonic universe?! All this and more on the first part of this two-part Sonic Adventure adventure! Now's the best time to tune in, folks! Speed Radio Adventure starts NOW!!

For our very first mini-episode, Dan and Tay reflect on their feelings on this project thus far - recounting their adventures with the holy quadrilogy, the awkward fits inbetween, and prepare for the next era of Sonic games! There's lots of talk about how each of them feel, reconsidering how their feelings have changed, and what they look forward to as the crew approaches a sea change for this little guy. Wrestling gets involved, online grievances are aired, bonds are tested in this new installation for Speed Radio! Who will come out correct on their opinion?!

Can you feel the sunshine, listener! Our hosts certainly do! ...Or at least the shadows cast by a sun glowing too bright, as Dan and Tay discuss the on-foot racer, Sonic R! Much a discussion is had about the origins of this F1 Racer-turned-Sonic, as Traveller's Tales steps up once again to deliver a product unlike any Sonic game before (if you ignore a couple Game Gear bits)! Come listen as they tackle the tricky turning, crazy curves, and dead-end delights as this ambitious open-world product tries to do a lot within its small bounding box. Could someone get Knuckles a sandwich or something? He's looking a little anemic.

Editor's note: This episode was recorded December 2024. Please forgive the gap in release times, as real life happened to the both of us.

Have you ever wondered if 3D could be compressed EVEN MORE?!??!! On this fifteenth episode of Speed Radio, our hosts rack their brans as they sing the swansong of the underdog gone under - Aspect's final hurrah on a console struggling to keep up. Perhaps the most painful game the hosts have endured - boring structure laced with terrible pre-rendered models, repetitive structure, and some of the WORST water levels to exist in the franchise. How will Dan and Tay keep their wits?! Spoilers: they don't. Good luck!

Our time has come.....The jump to 3D technology is here, in the form of compressed sprites! On this episode of Speed Radio, Dan and Tay have a nice little chat about the odd duck Genesis game, Sonic 3D Blast/Flickies' Island! Come listen as they explore the fascinating development of this unique isometric platformer, its visual identity, many rereleases, and more! From frustration to delight, messy platforming to immaculate music, this title has everything you want out of an early experimental title. There's also mention of the, uh.....phallic nature of an enemy. Look forward to that!
