You're Too Show: A Sonic the Hedgehog Fancast

Look inside yourself to find this episode of YTS, glowing with blue spirit energy, ready to grow into a forest of wild knowledge. Neither Ferngully nor Innerspace have anything on this allegedly-cute cartoon, and… we're pretty sure Kirby farted.

Get your notebooks, students; we’re taking you to star school. In this lesson, we’ll cover the true(?) history of Metaknight and the Star Warriors, the predictive capacity of wordplay, and then conduct extensive research on Kirby's Bad Body.

This is a big one, y’all! Your Two Hosts go full-on National Treasure to find hidden words, double agents, and the secret themes hidden within Mount Rushmore’s iconic Kirby sculpture. Metaknight is maybe Nic Cage? Caleb is the map. Breathe in & buckle up!

Kirby confronts a weighty foe while Your Two Hosts face the heavy narrative moments of Right Back At Ya! Come along with us as Kirby is accused of socialism, a bird refuses to learn a lesson about hospitality, and we do have to see a Cappy’s foot.

Welcome to the REAL Season Two! Your two hosts watch episode 1 of Kirby: Right Back At Ya! We learn about Kirby’s Superman origin story, confront a big octopus — no, bigger than that — and think WAY too hard about Kirby’s lips and interior.

This episode is a major milestone, and not just because we discuss the relative hotness of two anthropomorphic tigers. Follow your two hosts into familiar territory… and then take our big gloved hands as we leap together into the future!

Who do you think YOU are? Are you a discussion of a fairly problematic Sonic Underground that cribs heavily from Disney’s Aladdin, or are you reactions to the final Nintendo Direct about Smash Bros. Ultimate from two months ago because... scheduling!

This special Christmas episode was recorded for RadioSEGA’s Winterfest 2018! Your two hosts watch Sonic’s Christmas Blast and discuss robot Santas, ancient Christmas prophecies, and how gosh darn cute this version of Tails still is!

It’s juice and jam time again! Your two hosts revisit Sonic Underground and its love of referencing classic stories just barely enough to count. Come meet the original Spongebob Squarepants, the chillest whale on earth, and your own inner demons. Limbo!

Nick and Caleb are back! Dip your sneakers into this hot & fresh discussion of Smash Bros. Ultimate, Detective Pikachu, Jim Carrey, and the impending Sonic the Hedgehog movie — everything we’re excited about right now. It’s the perfect time to return.

Get your Parabolic Inverter and unhinge your limbs as we return to Sonic Underground and get SUPER real about Sonic’s body parts. We also cover sitcom trivia, classic cinema, and ask what the stakes really are for Sonic and friends.

We talk a little about the tonal weirdness of Mario Odyssey, big-picture lesssons from this year in big games, and whether Sonic Team needs to keep trying to make “big games” to reach Sonic’s true potential.

We planned to do a short Super Mario Odyssey episode, and ended up making a multi-part episode about how all games made us feel this year. Whoops! Please listen to the spoiler warnings, keep your hands inside the hat at all times, and enjoy the ride!

Let’s get gooped up and on TV with SONIC MANIA! We’re talking mean beans, weather chickens, and the immortal juggernaut Tails “Miles Tails” Prower. This game is a gift.

The OVA comes to an exciting end, Sonic's favorite outfit is revealed, and we accidentally deliver a lecture on robot ethics. THERE IS ONLY ONE YOU'RE TOO SHOW.

YEAR 2, BABY! We're kicking off our anniversary month with a return to what we do best: watching anime! Sonic and Tails are saving Eggman from Eggman. Knuckles is waking up in his boyfriend's clothes. Aerith from FFVII is there for some reason. It rules!

Join us as we finally discuss the famous episode where Sonic invents mouth-kissing, a gift that keeps on giving to all humanity every day. (Antoine doesn't appreciate it very much.)

SPOILER ALERT! Sonic Mania just came out, and we played the first zone! We talk about the opening animation, our initial story impressions, and how it feels to lace up this shiny new pair of big red shoes. (It feels REALLY GOOD!)

Sonic is juicin' and so are we on this fresh new ep of your favorite podcast! We're watching SatAM and starting a new volume of SPEED READING! Consider us the masters blaster of your Sonic experience. Consider us....X-TREME.

Hop into your glass casket (glassket?) and meet us thirty years in the future where we're watching Sonic SatAM. This episode has everything: an opener without a punch line, a rewrite of the classic musical Jesus Christ Superstar, and even... RATWATCH!

Rather than just talk about one shot from one scene from one episode today, we’re GOING BIG and talking about an entire cartoon! Lest our ambitions get the best of us, Sonic reminds us that all empires come to ruin, especially ones without compassion.

Join us as things really heat up in SatAM. We dig into why Sonic stories can feel genuine or forced, the different configurations of Sonic’s crew, and then we get super real about the correlation between Energon, the Zeo Crystal, and global politics.

Hello and welcome to NPR's newest pop culture podcast, You're Too Show. This week we recap episode two of Sonic SatAM, discuss a Golden Girls adaptation of the Terminator, and finally get Nick those acting awards he deserves in SPEED READING!

It's Sonic's 25th birthday, and we take the opportunity to review the first quarter of SEGA's ultimate plan. SatAM is gritty, silly, and Sonic almost commits actual murder.

We're live from the E3 show floor doing some hard hitting journalism for you, listeners, because you deserve it. No stone is left unturned in our moment-to-moment press coverage. Also we watched the pilot of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog.

Take us out to the game grass, in this sports-oriented episode. See if you can “Mitt” all the SportsFacts, including: What is Turf; What shape ~is~ a baseball field, really; and why do grandpas love Humanity’s Worst Creation so much?

We’ve reached the final act of our Sonic 06 extravaganza with Zolani Stewart. We talk about why Rouge is the best, learn which character is the Waluigi of Sonic, and realize why we believe in the dream of Sonic.

Join us behind the emotional curtain as we explore the topic… of love. Feel the rigid metal of your heart transform into Eggman’s new Soft Alloy, and wrap your tentacles around our new favorite ship: SonAmy.

Y’all, we did some stuff in this episode, but at the end: we came up with the best Sonic game ever, so that’s all I can remember.

Join your two hosts for another episode of what Caleb has dubbed "the Last Airbender of Sonic." Sonic X leaves everyone an emotional mess, including us.

Your two hosts become detectives to uncover the tip of the iceberg of the truth of #CHUCKGATE and you won't believe what we find out.

Sound the alarm. Summon the race car police. Grandpa's name is revealed and so is A CONSPIRACY. Robotnik foreshadows his own loss with a bad robot name. Nick is terrified of spiders and pictures of spiders.

Every Day's Great is a new podcast where Caleb Zane Huett and Nick Splendorr discuss the Persona games, matching the real and game world calendars as closely as possible. No Persona experience necessary!

It's somebody's birthday! See if you can guess who while listening to this special mystery episode. We watch an episode of Sonic X, interview director Chris Columbus, and make all sorts of nonsensical mouth sounds in no particular order.

Since Caleb was out of town last week, here's the second part of our episode with Zolani Stewart. We talk about level design, Sonic's lack of agency, and liking things that are hard to like.

Caleb and Nick give each other notes on their podcast performance so far. Sonic X provides insight into Dr. Eggman's aesthetic. Speed Reading is back with a twist. Everybody Loves Anime!

Sonic X gets even more anime. Nick and Caleb discuss robot ethics. Optimus Prime makes some questionable decisions.

Join us for the first part of our conversation with Zolani Stewart about the infamous Sonic '06, widely regarded as the "worst Sonic game of all time."

Special guest merritt k (@merrittk) joins us to talk about the game where Sonic finally does a swear: Shadow the Hedgehog. This whole episode is rated NSFW10+, which means it's not safe for work, especially if you're older than ten.

Praise the gods of anime because it's time for SONIC X! Finally, all the characters in one place: Knuckles, Tails, Big the Cat, everyone's favorite kid Chris, the whole bunch.

We forgot to do a special Valentine's Day episode, so this is that one. Or should we say...Eviltine's????? (No)

Amy lends her help to Sticks and Eggman and gets actual garbage in return: it's Sonic BOOM. Robotnik's twisted, nightmarish creations return to expose his evil in Speed Reading. Caleb and Nick talk about movies.

Didn't watch Sonic Boom this week? That's alright; we barely did. Come chill with us on this VERY chill ride.

The boys went to AGDQ, and interviewed a couple of the Sonic speedrunners. Plus, more Sonic BOOM! Who is the mysterious Sticks? Why is this show mean to all of its characters? We don't necessarily have the answers, but we do have even more questions.

Keep your hands and arms inside the time machine at all times, folks, cause Caleb and Nick are jumping right out of the nineties into 2014 to see what the French company OuiDo! has done to our sweet baby blue boy.

Sonic the Hedgehog (1492) is a classic. What hasn't been said about this hedgehog's journey to defeat Robotnik and then eventually travel back in time to raise his greatest enemy as his own son? Nick and Caleb find a few things.

Everyone knows Uncle Chuck is Sonic from the future. The real question is: what does he want? (Let's be honest: the answer is probably chili dogs.)

This episode features a record three (3) special segments. Tune in if you like news, storytime, or Adam Sandler's greatest film.

Caleb and Nick have been really busy playing Pokémon, but they take a break from their Alolan vacation for you, friends, and return to their day job in Mobius.

Join us for a very special holiday retrospective, as we see just how many ways a Sonic balloon can ruin the world’s largest parade named after a department store.

Last week was rough, folks, but this episode of Sonic Underground is here to help. The silly and the serious co-exist within Sonic, and in our conversation. It’s never been a better time to talk about dystopia.
