  • Delightful and charming take on a video game podcast

    This is such a delightful antidote to most video game podcasts, as there’s a ton of focus on the art and larger world of Mario! Hamish brings in all sorts of artists and creators whose work was inspired by these games, and fans who are passionate about very specific aspects of the Mario world (ex. Horror fans who love Luigi’s mansion, gays thirsting after Wario and Bowser, queer people who relate to certain Mario characters, etc.) It’s such a nice, laid back time that still provides really inter... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

4-2 Yoshi's Island (with Tiff Baxter)
Q: What makes the final Bowser fight stand out in your memory compared to other Mario boss battles?
The discussion highlights the scale, the kaiju-like presentation, and the fact that the boss fights feel like part of a larger, bawdy stage show, which elevates Yoshi's Island within the series' boss design tradition.
4-2 Yoshi's Island (with Tiff Baxter)
Q: What do you think about the game's lack of a traditional health bar and its accessibility options—did that make it easier or harder for you?
The group agrees the absence of a strict health system, coupled with more lives and optional assists, makes levels feel more forgiving and encourages exploration and 100% completion rather than rushed playthroughs.
4-2 Yoshi's Island (with Tiff Baxter)
Q: Which Yoshi color is your favorite and why does that choice resonate with you?
Tiffany prefers the lavender Yoshi for its unique vibe, while the hosts discuss how color choices reflect character associations and the game's shifting art palette across ports and spin-offs.
2-8 Paper Mario (with Josh Covel)
Q: Do you think this game is in need of a remake or is it perfect as it is?
I think that if you're going to do a remake, you got to change some things up. I don't know. I don't think it necessarily needs it.
2-8 Paper Mario (with Josh Covel)
Q: So what would you like the Mario Moment viewers to know?
I describe the Still Loading podcast as a gaming grab bag podcast. It covers a little bit of everything. I do deep dives on individual games and interviews with people in the industry.
