The Weekly Stuff #203 – Hellblade, Sonic Mania, Nier Automata, Twin Peaks Part 14 & More!

It’s a game review extravaganza on this week’s show, as we give a short pre-review of the wonderful Sonic Mania (full thoughts coming next week!), Jonathan gives his take on the outstanding and harrowing Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice from Ninja Theory, and we both dive into a belated spoiler-filled discussion of Nier: Automata, the game Jonathan foolishly complained about last week. We also, of course, discuss the latest episode of Twin Peaks: The Return, “Part 14,” easily one of the best episodes of this amazing series. And at the top of the show, Sean reviews some new Godzilla Blu-rays while Jonathan gives some quick thoughts on the DuckTales reboot on Disney XD.

Enjoy, and join our Patreon today to get access to our first Bonus Podcast, where we talk about the classic Doctor Who story “The Aztecs!”
