My guest for episode 13 had to postpone last-minute, so instead of finding a new guest for episode 13, I just delayed the whole thing! And yet somehow the episode numbering here is still easier to follow than Kingdom Hearts numbering conventions. Anyway, in episode 14 I'm joined by my friend Vicki, whose total experience with the franchise is limited to watching a friend play the first game for about half an hour back in 2002. She owns an Xbox One and enjoys a good FPS like Call of Duty, and wants me to convince her why she should have a go at Kingdom Hearts. It's a really fun chat where she asks most of the questions instead of myself, which was a great change of pace for me! I hope you all enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed recording it. And next time, we'll be back with episode 13!

    In episode 12 of Kingdom Hearts and Other Stuff, I chat with another member of the Nerd Pals Network family, Chris Samson! He's a co-host on both Super Nerd Pals and Left for Dread. Even with all that he's found the time to come on my show to talk about his love for electronic dance music in light of the news that Skrillex will be collaborating with Utada Hikaru for Kingdom Hearts III's main theme song. Not satisfied with just a single topic, Chris also delves into his deep love for tabletop RPG gaming. I share my recent first experience with D&D, and he tells me all about another podcast he listens to called Interstitial, where the players take on the roles of keyblade wielders in their own fantasy world. It's a long, entertaining ride, so come have a listen! You can find Everglow's Kingdom Hearts Timeline project on YouTube, right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eRniOT6_5c&list=PLhcSrKyqhfh5USKgcHjwTjeVbngw7Y0pr The Interstitial Kickstarter, which has ended but has the details of the game for those interested, is at this link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1564627018/interstitial-our-hearts-intertwined-an-rpg-of-frie/updates You can find Chris on Twitter at @kyoninjaforhire, myself at @zacharyplyons, and Kingdom Hearts and Other Stuff at @KHAOScast.

    A new major trailer dropped for Kingdom Hearts III this week, which means it's a special off-week episode of Kingdom Hearts and Other Stuff! For episode 11 of KHAOS I am joined for the second time by my KH kin, Katherine Bullard! After joining me for the E3 special earlier this year, she's back to help me break down the latest Kingdom Hearts III trailer from Tokyo Game Show. We both share our live reactions as we watch the trailer for the first time at the episode's start, then follow that with a lot of excitement and speculation. We also commentate on the gorgeous box art for Kingdom Hearts III which was just revealed and is simply *Italian finger kiss*.
