Still Loading #401: Mario 101 w/ Drew Mackie

from Still Loading Podcast

Some of my favorite episode topics are the ones I couldn't think of. This week on the show I am joined by Drew Mackie from the blog, Thrilling Tales of Old Video Games to talk about his recently released article, Mario 101. In Mario 101, Drew lays out a series of 101 obscure and fun Mario facts over the course of 40,000 words. This is the kind of topic I never would have thought of, which makes it the perfect topic for me to cover on the show. This type of super niche, hyper specific research is my jam and I when I reached out to Drew about coming on the show for a game (something we have yet to plan) we asked if we could talk about this and I jumped at the chance to. This was a really fun conversation about a side of Mario you don't really see. This is Mario 101.
