Get ready to do some barrel rolls, because today's episode is all about the swan song for Rareware on Nintendo consolesL Star Fox Adventures!

What are the dungeons like? And for the love of God, what's up with the voice acting!? All this, and just general talk about Star Fox as a franchise and why it hasn't taken off in recent years, so don't miss it!

We hope there are some fans of Ocarina of Time around, because this week we dedicated an hour to Ocarina of Time Q&A! How would the game have turned out if it was a FPS, like originally intended? What's our least favorite thing about the game? Can Ocarina legitimately be called the greatest game ever made? Could Link and Zelda be brother and sister? What are our favorite mini games? What's this new theory that actually makes the Downfall Timeline make sense?! All this and more! We were joined by the face of Zelda Universe, Amanda van Hiel, this week so make sure you check her out over on Twitter (@amandavanhiel) and over on her Twitch channel!   Follow the Champions’ Cast on Twitter: Andy Spiteri – @Spiteri316 Alasyn Eletha – @AlasynEletha

Get ready to fight evil this week, as the gang strap in and discuss every single final boss fight with the series' big bad himself: Ganon! From Beast Ganon to Ganondorf to Calamity Ganon, we dissect what we liked from each fight, what maybe didn't work as well, and which one was the most disappointing of the bunch. With eight different fights to choose from, there's lots of meat on the bone! Making her first ever appearance on the podcast this week is Mallo, a Zelda fanatic and photograph extraordinaire!

Guess That Zelda Character is back, but there's a twist! There are only so many characters in the Zelda universe, but the locations are seemingly endless. So this time, we had to guess the Zelda location in so many questions. I say "so many" because we started off with 16 questions, and it proved to be a bit difficult for us... at least at first! So come hear us get into each other's heads and play along! Try and see if you can guess what Zelda locations each of us are thinking about for yourself!   Follow the Champions’ Cast on Twitter: Andy Spiteri – @Spiteri316 Alasyn Eletha – @AlasynEletha Gooey Fame - @gooeyfame Corey Richmond - @coreyrichmond

Warning: this episode will make you hungry. This week, we have some special guests join us for a talk all about food, Zelda, and recipes! We sat down with Aime and Walter Woods and chatted about their new cookbook, The Unofficial Legend of Zelda Cookbook! How did it come to be? How was Nintendo in this process? What inspired them to make this? What was the reaction when they surpassed their Kickstarter goal by almost 30-fold? How did they make a recipe for Dubious Food and make it taste good?! And most importantly, there's how many recipes from Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland!?   All this, plus hear Alasyn's count of getting her copy and cooking her first item: buttered apples! (Note: the feature image this week is legit from Alasyn's kitchen!)   Come join the fun, and if you're interested in checking out the book, cruise on over to their website and see the different versions of The Unofficial Legend of Zelda Cookbook available. Plus, come and hang out in their Discord!   Follow the Champions’ Cast on Twitter: Andy Spiteri – @Spiteri316 Alasyn Eletha – @AlasynEletha
