from Earthbound: The Podcast Against Giygas! · host Garrett McMahon

Worst of all, he has to do it while walking around completely… in his pajamas. But it’s not all just squeaky ground, huge vegetables growing like trees, and all his friends wearing ridiculous animal costumes. Here, Ness will encounter incredible truths about his friends, his family, his sworn enemy, even ugh, PORKY, and even his ultimate destiny, all while in this extremely silly place.Will Prince Poo keep those tiger footy pajamas around? Will “steak flakes” stirred into a batter and baked in the oven taste just as good as the real thing? And will Ness discover the true reason why he was chosen to lead the four in the War Against Giygas?Find out on this week’s episode of… The Podcast Against Giygas!ROCKIN!!!“I’ll talk about my adventure, and you can tell me about all your mistakes!”
