Sacred Realms: A Zelda Retrospective Podcast

I have listened to most of the Zelda podcasts on the internet and in my humble opinion, this one by far is the best there is. I appreciate that the hosts have their own likes and dislikes, but that they share these opinions tastefully with respect for the game developers. I’ve been re-playing through the backlog of Zelda games for the past couple of years and I have enjoyed playing through the games alongside these guys. They have made some of the more difficult-to-get-through games (eg. Spirit Tracks) a fun and hilarious ride. Thanks for the lulz, looking forward to many more seasons—and ESPECIALLY looking forward to the TOTK season!

I started this podcast about 5 months ago, and I’m strictly going in order and playing along so by the time I finish it, I sadly think you guys will be done (but hopefully you’ll find some way to keep it going, maybe you already have, I’m stuck in mid-2022 so idk). Currently finishing up my playthrough of BOTW with you guys, and listening to your podcast has reinvigorated my love of the series. Hopefully you guys haven’t had any dramatic personality changes in the past two years because I’ll be sorely disappointed when I catch up. Keep up the good work, pours of Pappy on me if you guys are ever in Columbus, OH. Cheers!

The title says it all. Longtime listeners may remember my review as being one of their first sub-5 star reviews due to their (then) occasional political commentary. (There was a brief stint where the Willoughbys repeatedly harangued my review.) I have recently returned to the show, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that they have seemed to have shifted to all Zelda. This evidences their commitment to, week after week, deliver an OUTSTANDING product to their listeners. I promise you that if you love Zelda, you will not find a better podcast out there. The icing on the cake is that they’re a couple of good ole, Texas boys who love a good glass of bourbon. When it comes to Texas siblings, the Willoughby brothers are second only to the Garrison Brothers. It is with great pleasure that I rescind my previous review and add an extremely well-deserved 5-star review to their arsenal. I look forward to listening to the episodes I missed, and I hope that we can let bygones be bygones.

Love journeying with you boiz
