With sad news I must report that I have finished listening to all episodes of the #SoundofPlay podcast and have no new episodes to listen to.

The @caneandrinse.com crew stated it may return in some form later on. 🤞

I know it stopped in 2021. I was late to the party. But good music never expires!

My comments on #SonicAdventure as featured on latest @caneandrinse.com podcast episode. I haven’t played all the 3D Sonic games and I’ve heard a lot of bad things but I still enjoy this game. It has faults and Big the Cat still makes no sense.

The gameplay is refined in the sequel though.

Just in case @caneandrinse.com does a Super Marion 3D World podcast in 2026, I’m starting to draft ideas for 3 word reviews. Egbert is critiquing my work. Still have a ways to go but I WILL get there.

My friends we did it!

Our goal of beating Super Mario Bros 3 on the NES, in less than one hour is at an end.

Check out the video right here, as I take on this classic 8 bit adventure, without losing a life along the way.

Enjoy my friends, and thanks so much.

I enjoyed my time with Dark Cloud. An enjoyable yet possibly emotional devastating experience. Although I learned from listening to this podcast episode there’s a glitch to get amazing weapon stats and money.

So… both Chris’s are dirty cheaters. 😂

I bow to Brian for getting platinum, Bravo sir!
