Radio Redux - "The Realistically Proportioned Show" (#277) Since it’s been weeks since there’s been a Radio Redux, Kevin and Urtheart get together something to discuss changing times in the community with old faces departing and new names (literally) and progress with the ongoing TSSZ conversion project. Plus Urtheart getting a BAFTA (sort of), the point of Geoff Keighley, the design of the new Star Fox game and Kevin getting invited down to London to see Bentley Jones’s Absolution concert.

You can also find the show on... Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-realistically-proportioned-show-277/id121608819?i=1000769438355 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2LeLque9HqYgpJmyreUeUC

BOOZING FOR BEGINNERS | Red Dragon Inn #12

It's been some considerable time since the LMC boys were in the #RedDragonInn, so with time on their side they guide three newcomers in to the world of Gog and company: Greyfore, Luna and GuardEzio.

Time to see some old friends we've not seen in some considerable time - the OG characters.

CLIPS: This is getting ridiculous! Kevin drags Luna Arcanos, @urtheart and an outraged @feniiku into the 'Accusing Parlour' to read the riot act to whoever is responsible for sending him even MORE Jet The Hawk Funko POPs.

Kevin and Urtheart are spending the show going through the various games industry April Fools and have finally gotten around to the first of SEGA's THREE for 2026. Starting with their much talked about 3% change of blue to their logo. Unfortunately, as Kevin points out, if you know SEGA's own branding guidelines the gag doesn't really work...

CLIPS: In this quick clip, while discussing CrossWorlds future plans. a rumour on Twitter gives pause for Kevin to consider the possibility of doing something similar at a future Summer of Sonic - if there actually was one.

CLIPS: Happy 20th birthday to (the not yet ripped off) RadioSEGA!

Kevin and Urtheart (or is that Ken Penders?) welcomes everyone to another Radio Redux, and it also happens to be RadioSEGA's 20th birthday. There's going to be a party! Wait, what do you mean there isn't? Well never mind... it could be worse. SEGA could launch their own RadioSEGA like they did with Sonic Stadium! Now where's the beer?

CLIPS: Let's shove Five Nights At Freddy's into CrossWorlds... Kevin takes all manner of joy in terrorising Urtheart with the possibilities of adding various other licences into Sonic Racing CrossWorlds. In fact, let's "confirm" a bunch just for funsies...

CLIPS: Unforgettable moments, a story that adds to the dynamic of the three main characters. Plus the sheer panic of- wait, what do you mean Grandma is poorly? Nooooo, not GRANDMA! DROP EVERYTHING! SAVE THE LOVELY SOUP LADY! Taken from Radio Redux #245 "The Splish Kaboom Show" (https://youtu.be/VifVYpGFeW8) with YouTube artwork by  @needsmoarwhatever.

CLIPS: Ever since Kevin revealed he could do a pretty decent Jet The Hawk voice, his friends and people on the Twitch streams have loved it. But when a visiting Urtheart gives him the surprise present of a Jet the Hawk Funko POP he doesn't realise he's contributing to an unnerving set of events that has seen the Babylon Rogue start to haunt Kevin in real life...

Atari ST game Horse Racing Simulator is back! And this time Dusk added in the Umamusume: Pretty Derby... err, fillies. With @feniiku, @ninten72, Suf and first timer Luna Arcanos joining the fray, it's set to be another crazy session!

From a special adaption of the BBC's Room 101 format, Turbo is challenged to get his gaming pet peeves into the room where things are banished forever. All he has to do is convince Kevin, the guardian of Room 101, that his pick needs to be erased from existence.

So when he comes up to the plate with Marine the Raccoon from Sonic Rush Adventure - one of the games Kevin himself worked on - it might be a bit tricky for him to get the Australian side-kick in...

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds has a lot of connective tissue to the wider Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. But it's very nice to see the Babylon Rogues back again - even if it feels they've been sacrificed a little to prop up CrossWorlds. Plus, you know... Shadow tried to off them in the animation.

Episode 271 of Radio Redux marked 20 years since the first official episode back in 2006. In celebration Kevin was going to bring an old segment back from that first show - then SEGA showed up with their dramatized podcast about Team Chaotix, a tribute to the serialised radio shows of old - which is EXACTLY the same concept as Chaotix X.

A little ticked off by that, and given that Chaotix X did indeed feature in that first Radio Redux show, Kevin chose to prove a point and made a brand new 30 minute episode of Chaotix X from script to finished production in under three days. Using modern production techniques and tools that are now available - and weaponising his stupid sleep cycle.

Featuring the vocal talents of @needsmoarhedgehog (who also did the art here), Turbo, @urtheart , @ninten72, @thefoxesmind, Luna Arcanos and of course Kevin himself reprising the voices from the original 5 episodes.

"Dreams Of An Absolution" - Theme of Silver, Sonic 06: WIP Version

Once upon a time people discovered work in progress/demo/beta (pick your poison on what you want to call it) versions of a couple of tracks from - note the caps, here - SONIC The Hedgehog. Otherwise known as Sonic 06, Sonic The Hedgehog 2006 without brackets, Sonic The Hedgehog (2006) with brackets, Sonic 2006... or that title that got rushed due to Microsoft putting pressure on SEGA to have it out before the PS3 launched. And which ever so kindly took itself in and out of canon in the same game thanks to a closed time loop created by temporal shenanigans.

Thinking about it, the Sonic franchise REALLY likes messing about with time. To an almost awkward degree.

I guess you could say Sonic is time travels... and if you got that reference, well done.

This WIP version of the awesome theme of Silver The Hedgehog, "Dreams Of An Absolution" by Lee Brotherton (later known as ‪Bentley Jones‬), was one of those tracks. Much like other WIP versions it has got synths instead of lyrics, so you still get the elements missing from the tune. Pretty sure we didn't initially find/reveal it, it was early enough in Sonic Wrecks's history that it was one of those posts we lost when CuteNews broke. But Sonic Wrecks was probably the Sonic community site most excited about it at the time. Bundling it in with a bunch of other miscellaneous Sonic 06 tracks not on the official soundtrack to form the 'Absolute Absolution' collection. It had the K-Klub remix of DOAA on there too - and I bet most of you have ENTIRELY forgotten about that one.

Anyway, it was a part of the Depository from very early on, right up until its removal from the website. So welcome back, I guess?
