When the Clock Broke — 1990s Political Shifts

Jason, Kirk, and Maddy convene to discuss all the news in the latest Nintendo Direct, from the Super Mario Galaxy movie to a new Fire Emblem and the mysterious Danganronpa 2x2. Then: more Silksong! They talk about difficulty, opacity, and how cool Hornet is... I mean seriously. She's just so cool.

One More Thing (Timestamp 46:34):

Kirk: Fourth Wing & Romantasy

Maddy: When the Clock Broke (John Ganz)

Jason: Nathan For You
