Amy, watching Sonic Prime has me thinking, right?
spk_0
We need some sort of secret bestie cheat code or something.
spk_0
Oh yeah, you mean in case we're sucked into another dimension
spk_0
where I don't know who you are?
spk_0
Exactly!
spk_0
I like this.
spk_0
Exactly, right?
spk_0
You're with me?
spk_0
Yes, I'm with you.
spk_0
Okay, I'll need some way to get you to trust that we are actually
spk_0
BFFs that host a podcast together.
spk_0
Quick, tell me a deep dark secret you never tell anyone.
spk_0
Mmm, well, that is the only way.
spk_0
Okay, so one time when I was in eighth grade,
spk_0
there was...
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Oh, too bad, I wish I could tell you that crazy story,
spk_0
but we gotta go fast because it's time for another round of
spk_0
popcorn brainstorm.
spk_0
Popcorn brainstorm.
spk_0
I'm Amy.
spk_0
And I'm Dominique.
spk_0
Now, Sonic Prime's got me into the idea of alternate realities.
spk_0
Hold on, you're not going to smash a paradox prison and create a shadow of Earth just like Sonic did, are you?
spk_0
Popcorn brainstorm.
spk_0
Look out, I just...
spk_0
No, I'm not gonna do that.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Instead, I am not gonna tell you a joke today.
spk_0
Oh, whoo, no joke.
spk_0
Great.
spk_0
You misunderstand.
spk_0
We are in an alternate dimension.
spk_0
So in this reality, you tell the jokes to me.
spk_0
Ooh, payback time.
spk_0
Oh.
spk_0
All right, oh, I have a Sonic joke for you.
spk_0
Really?
spk_0
Okay, let's see where this goes.
spk_0
What did Knuckles say when he heard Sonic crying?
spk_0
Ready for it?
spk_0
Yep, go ahead.
spk_0
Why so blue?
spk_0
That was good.
spk_0
See, my jokes are charming and fun.
spk_0
You told a joke.
spk_0
Sounds like it's trivia time.
spk_0
Now, Amy, we're still in the shadowverse.
spk_0
See, it's you that will be getting the five questions on today's topic.
spk_0
And it's you that has 30 seconds to answer with prizes for the right answers ready to go.
spk_0
So ready.
spk_0
Oh, what will I be winning?
spk_0
Cute little hedgehogs?
spk_0
Oh, no, Amy.
spk_0
No, no, no.
spk_0
You see, my lizards have been staying healthy.
spk_0
In fact, very healthy that they've made more lizards.
spk_0
Today, Amy, you'll be playing for all the lizards.
spk_0
Ha, ha, ha.
spk_0
Shadowverse Dom is intense.
spk_0
Yeah, I think I'm gonna go back to my real voice now.
spk_0
Is that okay?
spk_0
That's good, that's good.
spk_0
Question number one.
spk_0
Which gaming console did Sonic the Hedgehog debut on?
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Is it A, Sega Genesis, B, Nintendo 64, C, Xbox One, or D, Atari 2600?
spk_0
Ooh, okay.
spk_0
I was like a very young kid when this stuff was happening.
spk_0
It was like the early days of everything like that.
spk_0
Nintendo, like Super Mario, Duck Cut.
spk_0
Okay, I got this.
spk_0
You got this.
spk_0
You got this.
spk_0
When I think Sonic, I think Sega.
spk_0
I think Sonic, I think Sega, I'm gonna go with Sega.
spk_0
A, Sega Genesis.
spk_0
You are correct.
spk_0
Woo!
spk_0
Great job, Amy.
spk_0
Sega wanted a character to be a mascot for their new game system, just like Mario had been
spk_0
for Nintendo.
spk_0
Oh, that's why I think he's the first one.
spk_0
That's right.
spk_0
And in 1991, the world was introduced to this speedy hedgehog.
spk_0
There you go.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
Question two, you ready?
spk_0
I'm ready.
spk_0
Let's go.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
Since we met Sonic in 1991, what year was Sonic's BFF Tales introduced?
spk_0
Is it A, 1991, B, 1992, C, 1993, or D, 1994?
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Well, these games take a long time.
spk_0
They do.
spk_0
They like, it's not like you can just make them overnight.
spk_0
So I'm gonna go with, if 91 was Sonic, Tales is 93.
spk_0
Mm.
spk_0
C93.
spk_0
C93.
spk_0
That is my answer.
spk_0
That's your answer.
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
That is a good guess, but it's actually B, 1990, 1990.
spk_0
The next year?
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
Ooh, they were moving fast.
spk_0
I mean, it's Sonic.
spk_0
I should have known.
spk_0
They've been coming fast.
spk_0
It was a lot of competition at that time.
spk_0
Did you know that Tales' full name is Miles' Power, as in Miles' Power.
spk_0
Ah, so cute.
spk_0
They're so good.
spk_0
They're so good.
spk_0
Right.
spk_0
And there was a clue actually right there in the show.
spk_0
The code to enter Tales' Lab is 1992.
spk_0
1992.
spk_0
Look at those little Easter eggs.
spk_0
Right, right?
spk_0
It's good stuff.
spk_0
Love that.
spk_0
Good stuff.
spk_0
Okay. All right.
spk_0
Question number three.
spk_0
In Sonic Prime, it's the character Rouge that warns Sonic and Tales about the paradox
spk_0
prism, which makes sense.
spk_0
Right?
spk_0
We know from previous appearances that Rouge loves jewels, gems, anything treasure.
spk_0
True.
spk_0
My question to you is, what animal is Rouge?
spk_0
Ooh.
spk_0
A. A sugar glider.
spk_0
B. In a kidna.
spk_0
C. A flying squirrel.
spk_0
Or D. A bat.
spk_0
Hmm.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
No.
spk_0
Sonic is a hedgehog.
spk_0
That's right.
spk_0
C. Is it C flying squirrel?
spk_0
Squirrels and hedgehogs.
spk_0
They go together.
spk_0
That is a good guess.
spk_0
Yes, we got it.
spk_0
It's a good guess.
spk_0
But it is D. A bat.
spk_0
Oh, right.
spk_0
Rouge is a bat.
spk_0
Rouge is a bat.
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
I got it wrong.
spk_0
I accept my lizard.
spk_0
It's all good.
spk_0
Continue.
spk_0
On to question number four.
spk_0
In the Sonic video games, Sonic has to collect which of these things in order to defeat Dr. Eggman.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
Is it A. Gold coins.
spk_0
B. Chaos emeralds.
spk_0
C. Wompa fruits.
spk_0
Or D. Power cookies.
spk_0
Ooh.
spk_0
Well, now I'm hungry and want to power cookie.
spk_0
I feel you.
spk_0
I think it's...
spk_0
I said coins.
spk_0
I'm like, no, no, that's...
spk_0
That's Maria.
spk_0
That's totally...
spk_0
I think...
spk_0
No, I...
spk_0
I...
spk_0
You got this.
spk_0
spk_0
You got to go fast.
spk_0
B. Chaos emeralds.
spk_0
Ooh.
spk_0
B. Chaos emeralds is your answer.
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
And you are correct.
spk_0
Great job, Amy.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
You're killing this.
spk_0
Question number five.
spk_0
You ready?
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
What is Sonic's absolute favorite food?
spk_0
Is it A. Onion rings.
spk_0
B. Scramble eggs.
spk_0
C. Chili dogs.
spk_0
Or D.
spk_0
Pizza.
spk_0
I have been trading my whole life for this moment, you guys.
spk_0
You are ready.
spk_0
Again, Sonic came out and I was a little kid.
spk_0
You are ready.
spk_0
The answer is C.
spk_0
Chili dogs.
spk_0
The answer is C.
spk_0
Chili dogs.
spk_0
You are correct.
spk_0
Amy.
spk_0
You did great.
spk_0
Oh, well thank you.
spk_0
You got some lizards coming your way.
spk_0
Oh boy.
spk_0
I've been in contact with your lizard guy.
spk_0
That's three lizards for you.
spk_0
Three lizards for you.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
All right.
spk_0
Oh, well there it is.
spk_0
Not bad trivia questions for a new...
spk_0
Not bad answers.
spk_0
But time to switch into the game.
spk_0
Let's play one word story.
spk_0
We will do it.
spk_0
We will tell a story together alternating one word at a time.
spk_0
And the rule is the word you suggest has to make sense in the story or you're out.
spk_0
Or if you get stumped and have to think too long, you're also out.
spk_0
Oh, sounds chaotic.
spk_0
I love it.
spk_0
And we're going to put a Sonic spin on it.
spk_0
So as we go, we have to tell a story faster and faster and faster.
spk_0
Oh, all right.
spk_0
Let's do this.
spk_0
You start.

It's like you have to be so like.
spk_0
Wow.
spk_0
It's like the more you attack it.
spk_0
Jeez.
spk_0
You really got me there.
spk_0
I won.
spk_0
You did win.
spk_0
It's all right.
spk_0
Well, it's always a pleasure to play in the game with you, Dominique.
spk_0
Same.
spk_0
Same.
spk_0
Well, sadly, we are out of popcorn.
spk_0
It is finished in this reality.
spk_0
But.
spk_0
Maybe in another reality, it's not.
spk_0
Ooh.
spk_0
Maybe there's a dimension of infinite popcorn.
spk_0
Infinite popcorn.
spk_0
Or maybe we can just go to the store and get more.
spk_0
Sounds a little simpler, you know, before we like, tear apart space and time.
spk_0
That works too.
spk_0
Thank you, Amy, and everyone at home for playing this round of popcorn brainstorm.
spk_0
I had so much fun, Dom, on listeners.
spk_0
