Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 67 ratings
  • Funny stuff

    The hosts are knowledgeable but not full of themselves, and sometimes the random tangents completely unrelated to Sonic are the best parts.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Get a Load of THIS! w/ ABBY DENTON
Q: If you were to go for Halloween, we're going to dress up as a Sonic character. Which Sonic character would it be?

Get a Load of THIS! w/ ABBY DENTON
Q: Which Sonic character do you think would look really cool wearing a pair of specs?
Abby suggests Dr. Eggman, while the group trades ideas including Big the Cat with a monocle and Tikal.
Hard Questions w/ MICHAEL LEVINE
Q: What is Sonic's biggest problem, in your view?
Sonic's biggest problem is often framed as an identity and cohesion issue across the many versions, media, and regional interpretations, which can dilute a single canonical vision but also fuels diverse experiments and fan engagement.
A Very Normal Episode, pt. 2
Q: I've always wanted to see Tails, Knuckles and Amy get their own super forms, but making them exactly like Super Sonic would make them feel derivative and less special. If you could create a unique super form for these characters, what would it be like?
The hosts brainstormed ideas for new forms, considering unique visual themes and abilities for each character, with a playful emphasis on giving them distinct identities rather than simply mirroring Super Sonic; they threw around names like Turbo Tails and Awesome Amy, then discussed how such forms could fit into Sonic lore.
Chaotix Casefiles ep 2 Review + Mailbag
Q: What was your reaction to the Chaotix Casefiles Episode 2 cliffhanger and the teased arrivals next week?
The panel agrees the cliffhanger is exciting and potentially reshapes which Chaotix members will be central in upcoming episodes, with Jet, Storm, Wave, and the IDW debuts (Tangle and Whisper) adding fresh energy to the cast.
