It’s the beginning of Thanksgiving day on the podcast. We play some hot and cold, getting as many chocographs as we can. Then Spencer Crittenden joins us, and we talk about video games while we begin preparing the meal.
Corn Casserole Recipe:
2 cans creamed style corn
1 can southwest style corn or “mexicorn,” drained (you can add a second can of roasted style corn or normal corn to make it more corny)
8oz box of jiffy corn muffin mix
8 oz sour cream
1 egg
1-2 teaspoons of Salt and a bunch of pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
(about a half of 1 jalapeno, hot pepper, or a tablespoon of hot sauce optional)
(You can swap in a cup or two of fresh corn for canned corn but not the creamed style corn)
(I haven’t noticed much of a difference but you can add half a stick to a full stick of butter and honestly probably up to 2 sticks, salted or unsalted)
Make sure the corn is drained, melt the butter, and then mix basically everything together in a big mixing bowl, order doesn’t really matter. Combine, pour into a 13x9 casserole dish/glass pan and bake for like 1 hour at 350F, check after 40 minutes. It should set and get little cracks or bubble holes in it like a cake. The top sets kinda like a corn bread but the inside will be much wetter like a stuffing or bready casserole.

It’s day 2, and we start out by making breakfast, a twist on Matty Matheson’s bologna bowl. Ryan brings the legendarily bad player’s guide, so we dive into that nonsense. Then we finally get out of the town of Dali, sailing an airship through South Gate while fighting off a Black Waltz.

Can Zidane and the ragtag crew of Tantalus impress Queen Brahne while executing a secret mission to kidnap Princess Garnet? Will there be any dramatic twists along the way? What’s Vivi’s deal? It’s a wild and whimsical opening for series creator Hironobu Sakaguchi’s final hurrah, and the last mainline Final Fantasy to be released for the Playstation 1.
