Ahem! Today I am going to tell you the story of the Thousand-Year Door.

That's right! We are discussing Paper Mario's Gamecube sequel! In today's episode we will be covering what this game does that makes it, for many people, the very peak of the Mario RPG series! Is it the gut-wrenching story? The flawless gameplay? Or could it because it's one of the few Mario titles with overt and canonical queer representation?

And I'll be joined by artist, animator and all-round good person Carl Doonan! He is responsible for some of the internet's best Mario art and you can found out more here: https://lnk.bio/carldoonan

Wah! It's a Super Mario Moment! Or is that a Wario Woment?

NOTE: This episode was recorded with less than ideal internet connections and so was highly edited to remove moments of lag. It is not up to my usual standards of quality but I really enjoyed the conversation and guest and was determined to release it anyway. I hope you enjoy and the poor quality isn't too distracting.

Today, we take our first step into the world of Mario spinoffs with Wario Land 3 for the GameBoy Color! We talk transformations, gold-lust and Metroid-vania and whether this game is a Humiliation Simulator.

And today I am joined by artist and game designer Samanthuel Louise Gillso aka splendidland! Samanthuel can be followed @splendid.land on many social medias and on her website https://www.splendid.land where you can also purchase her incredible games!
