	72) Land of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse	09 déc. 2024	01:07:57
With Nathan giving college football the ol' college try, Lee and Josh have a very British conversation - or, 'a bit of a natter' - about Sega's Walt Disney's Land of Illusion for the Master System which, of course, stars Mickey Mouse, along with some other characters we nearly forget about. In addition, thoughts and feelings are shared re: Sonic Colo(u)rs Ultimate, approx. three years late. Got Spam? Fax us! ghzpodcast@gmail.com!

Tonight: the thrilling conclusion to our Elden Ring escapades!

Thoughts? Feelings? Hatemail? ghzpodcast@gmail.com!
	69) King Of The Ring, Part I: It's An Elden Thing, You Wouldn't Understand	07 oct. 2024	01:18:14
Against a timely backdrop of World Cups and loud curries, Lee shares some first impressions on fantasy blockbuster Elden Ring, the "Dark Souls of Zeldas" - or possibly the "Zelda of Dark Soulses", we haven't decided. Either way, we can all agree it's definitely the "Hot Sauce of Videogames" (trademark pending). Next week: the Horse Armor episode... Thoughts? Feelings? Hatemail? ghzpodcast@gmail.com!
	68) Yakuza Zero One-Oh-One	30 juin 2024	01:25:44
After years of tireless campaigning, Nathan finally convinces Lee and Josh to play the critically-acclaimed smash hit Sega videogame, Yakuza 0 - the sixth entry in the increasingly popular, and also increasingly bizarre, Like A Dragon series. Substories, shakedowns, secret heat actions... all this and more, as the chaps share their first impressions on Mr. Nagoshi's "not-too-prequelly" prequel. Thoughts? Feelings? Hatemail? ghzpodcast@gmail.com!

In which Josh and Lee are ambushed by a hitherto unknown Sonic-related debate (which starts at approx. 20 minutes in, by the way, if you value your time more than we do), following some startling revelations about third spaces, responsible drinking, and pudding culture. Tuck in! Thoughts? Feelings? Hatemail? ghzpodcast@gmail.com!
	66) Serving Suggestions	31 mai 2024	01:11:33
We're back, Dear Listeners - and we hear you! Tonight, we finally get round to extinguishing (some of) your burning questions - and, much like popular video game Sonic CD, it's about time. How do we feel about Mammoth Mogul? What's our perfect chili dog? And when will we record next? Turn on, tune in, find out (probably). Thoughts? Feelings? Hatemail? ghzpodcast@gmail.com!
	65) A Christmas Hirokazu	31 déc. 2023	01:42:07
We wish you a Merry Holidays, and a Happy New... Episode?! Our gifts to you, Dear Listeners: medium-strength feelings about Sega's surprise announcements at The Geoff Awards, another "Sonic Speedrun" to get all caught up, and a cosy little chat about our favourite seasonal movies (intentional or otherwise). PARENTAL ADVISORY: contains strong references to Tim Allen.
	64) Blonic Blooperstars: A Review	17 nov. 2023	01:20:57
With Nathan lost at sea, our GHZ-oldbie pal Locit joins us from lands afar to engage in a pleasant, constructive, and well-reasoned ramble on the eagerly-anticipated Sonic Superstars, released last month to rave reviews (for a given value of "rave").

Boy, do we (finally) have a show for you, Dear Listeners: animated feature reviews, cool adult PS5 chat, a nippy new segment called The Sonic Speedrun, and also a bit where we talk about a new segment that we might do, but we haven't decided yet. Thrills, chills and spills - but no Sonic Superstars review, that's next month. Probably.

Suddenly, and also three weeks late (approx.), the GHZ fellas wax lyrical about national anthems, GotG (pronounced "got-GUH") & DADHAT (pronounced "DADHAT"), and current affairs in kingdoms both 'United' and 'of Hyrule'. Additionally, Nathan learns about "pennying a pint", and is disgusted.
