This week, the fellas are feeling grateful to do this show for you! News gets covered, Rings of Saturn returns, and the fellas nominate the most-deserving ‘Sonic Turkeys.’ What does that even mean, exactly? Listen on to find out!
David & Grant cover the new Spongebob Squarepants DLC for Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, the new Endless Possibilities cover, and more. Plus we pose questions like: which special stage from the classic games is best? And should Sonic be funny?
It’s the season 4 finale of SONIC WEEKLY. That’s right, we’re taking another hiatus! But before we do, it’s an extra-sized episode as we crack open the mailbag to answer listener questions, spin the Rings of Saturn, and dive into reviewing Ken Penders’ Knuckles Omnibus vol. 1 with our friend Sango. Stay tuned for Season 5!
