What is Another Zelda Podcast?

It’s a secret to everybody. | Another Zelda Podcast is a show wherein we talk about all things regarding The Legend of Zelda series!

David Geisler:

Hello, and welcome to another Zelda podcast. I am David, your cohost today, and I am here with Katie Roberts. Katie, how you doing?

Kady Roberts:

I'm great. How are you?

David Geisler:

Signly laughing over there, making me laugh. What's what's up? You

Kady Roberts:

okay? Right before we jumped in, you you asked if I had lister feedback, and I said, yes. And you said, you're great. And so I went, stop. And you said it right as you got in.

Kady Roberts:

So I don't know if it's gonna be if it's gonna get picked up at the beginning of the I

David Geisler:

know. I'll make sure it's not in the edit.

Kady Roberts:

I mean, it doesn't matter if it is or not. Just think it's funny.

David Geisler:

Fantastic. Katie.

Kady Roberts:

Fantastic. Say that again. Do you know that meme? What's going

David Geisler:

on? No. What are you talking about?

Kady Roberts:

Because of how popular the Fantastic Four has been recently, people will say fantastic, and they'll go, say that again.

David Geisler:

Does that happen in the trailer or something like that?

Kady Roberts:

I I it might be in one of the comics. I don't Oh, okay. Same with people when they play the game Marvel Rivals and they play the character, The Thing, people will always type in chat, here's The Thing, dot dot dot.

David Geisler:

Cool.

Kady Roberts:

It's just a thing.

David Geisler:

I get

Kady Roberts:

it. It's it is. Here's the thing. That that's just, you know.

David Geisler:

I like it.

Kady Roberts:

It's a Marvel thing, I guess.

David Geisler:

Say that again. I didn't say it You almost said No. Because you gotta say fantastic.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. It's fantastic. Say that again. And then he hit them with the four pose. He say we hit the four pose to Reed Richard's signature pose.

David Geisler:

I have two emotions happening right now. My two emotions are

Kady Roberts:

the Marvel stuff, David? Is that what I'm finding out about you?

David Geisler:

I don't really know a lot of I mean, I really

Kady Roberts:

Not engaged with, like, the fandom culture nowadays with the Marvel.

David Geisler:

Oh, I'm I I I think I'm definitely not engaged with the fandom culture even though I'm a fan. Mhmm. But I'm, like, a slow motion Marvel fan now. I mean, even in the early I mean, I was when the when the Marvel those first three Avenger movies came out or I guess technically four, but then when they were ramping up to, I guess you could say Endgame Mhmm. I was very excited about it, but a little bit more from like a film history point of view.

David Geisler:

Yeah. I was kinda like, this has never we've there's been shared universes. There was kinda like back in the days, Universal Monsters did it a little and, you know, King Kongs and Godzilla's fighting each other and stuff like that. But I was like, this is a a monumental filmic film history moment that over the course of a decade, a studio has told 22 stories, all culminate together into a final story. They aren't there's they're all sequels to each other and they exist in the same universe.

David Geisler:

I was like, this has never really happened before in film history this way. I'm a fan. I'm in. I wanna see if they can pull off this story. Yeah.

David Geisler:

And so I I didn't know anything about any of the characters. I didn't know what Iron Man was when I saw it. And, I mean, I I knew Captain America existed. And I but I'm a big but I'm a fan of Marvel. Like, I actually kinda was pretty excited about the next movies that were coming out.

David Geisler:

I watched all the shows during COVID. I watched, you know, She Hulk. I loved all of

Kady Roberts:

them. Yeah. No. The reason I'm laughing is because I was in the same boat. My brother was big Marvel fan and his friends were.

Kady Roberts:

And my brother, amazing older brother, he would take me everywhere with him to do everything with him.

David Geisler:

Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

So I had seen like one or two Marvel movies. Yeah. I saw Thor Ragnarok. That was like the one that I had seen I loved. Still to this day, love it.

Kady Roberts:

Sounds very But then him and his buddies were like, we're gonna go see Endgame. Katie, come on. We go, I watch Endgame. I'm like, I don't know what's happening. I still cried when Peter Parker comes back because that's Peter Parker.

Kady Roberts:

And then when WandaVision came out, the TV show, I watched some of it. And I really enjoyed it, but I was super confused. And I brought this up to my brother and he's like, are you confused about? I'm like, I don't know who this Vision guy is or who Scarlet Witch is or whoever. He's like, do you mean we watched Vision was his favorite character.

Kady Roberts:

He's like, do you mean like we watched Endgame? I'm like, dude, I didn't even Infinity War. Like, I didn't see any of these movies.

David Geisler:

Oh my gosh.

Kady Roberts:

And so he we like went on a vacation and all we did, we didn't even like leave the house during that vacation. He just we sat down and we watched from start to finish within like two days, the entire cinematic universe in timeline order, all of it. We rented, like, the Incredible Hulk movie and stuff too. Yeah. And now I'm, like, the biggest fan.

David Geisler:

I was I I am a big I think, like, I get excited when the Marvel stuff comes out on Disney plus blah

Kady Roberts:

blah blah

David Geisler:

blah blah. I'm a little I am one of the fatiguers right now. Like, after after Endgame, I got really excited about WandaVision. And then I was, you know, I was kind of excited for Falcon Wind and Shoulder. I was really excited for She Hulk, actually.

David Geisler:

And then I I watched them all. And now I'm kind of like, like, I'm If you haven't seen

Kady Roberts:

Moon Knight, Moon Knight's phenomenal.

David Geisler:

We watched my partner at the time and I watched Moon Knight Day Of for every episode and I liked it, but I kind of like it was somewhere around Multiverse of Madness and Quantumania where I started kind of

Kady Roberts:

going Yeah, those two movies were kind

David Geisler:

of And so I'm just kind of chilling right now. I'm excited for.

Kady Roberts:

Completely fair.

David Geisler:

Fantastic Four looks good. Apparently Thunderbolts was great.

Kady Roberts:

And Thunderbolts was good.

David Geisler:

Kind of excited. I think I'm excited for. I bet you where I'm at now. I'm passive. So I'm like, well, when it comes out on streaming, I'll watch it.

David Geisler:

That's where I'm

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

That's okay. Where I used to be like, the next Avengers, gotta go to the theater. Yeah. There it is.

Kady Roberts:

Absolutely. Sorry. That's kind of a a big tangent, but yeah.

David Geisler:

So a little intro tangent. It's totally okay. Tonight, we are we're only six minutes in, we're right on the edge there. Cool. Tonight, we are building a top 10 list, meaning we've each picked five, a top 10 list of items that are in the Zelda universe, in the Zelda games that we we would like to have in real life.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, yeah.

David Geisler:

And, Katie, I gotta say, we had we talked about it a little bit. Were like, well, it can't really be an ability, but if it's an item that gives an ability, that's I was originally kind of thinking it had to be an item that's mappable to a button, but I don't think it does. I think if it's just something that Link gets narratively, that's okay too. An item, for me, definitively, is anything that affects Link that he doesn't naturally have in his

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. No. Absolutely. Form or whatever. Because I'm I'm running off of, like, the Wiki where I just looked When before we were doing this, I was doing my research.

Kady Roberts:

I just looked up Zelda items and even, like, rupees were listed. Bottles were listed. Anything.

David Geisler:

Well, let's start with number five. It's rupees. No. I'm joking.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, I was like, sir, we have listener feedback.

David Geisler:

Indeed. We do. Indeed. No. I just joking.

David Geisler:

Like, rupees would be such a like, you it's like you have 10 slots and you picked rupees.

Kady Roberts:

I was gonna say that I think I was reading there just like a mask in Majora's where every time you go to, like, a post box or something, it gives you rupees. And I'm like, just get the infinite money glitch in real life.

David Geisler:

Yeah. That's interesting. Yeah. Yes. You're absolutely right.

David Geisler:

We have some listener feedback. Let's jump into it right now.

Kady Roberts:

Do want me to start or do you want to Sure.

David Geisler:

Why not? It's in your hand.

Kady Roberts:

Okay. So this is oh, okay. This is on Apple Podcasts, so it's not on anything particular. It's just a review. Cool.

Kady Roberts:

Five stars. It's dangerous to go alone, dot dot dot. Listen to this. This is from Techmo Zach. Like the title says, this podcast is Zelda.

Kady Roberts:

The passion is evident in every word. Highly recommend. That's wonderful. Short and sweet.

David Geisler:

Short and sweet. I love it. Thank you so much. That might be a good one for the website, actually,

Kady Roberts:

because it's

David Geisler:

so succinct. Alright. Over here then, I have on our top 10 silliest ways to attack a boss, the our most recent episode over on Spotify. Well, I guess it's two away now, but as we recorded two tonight. But, anyway, please do a Twilight Princess episode.

David Geisler:

By the way, best podcast ever. But I feel with all the content in the game, that should be a two parter just to do it justice. If it wasn't clear, top Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda game, and I even got my coworker to start playing it on his old GameCube. Me and the fact I started listening to AZP together with him at work, and we just recently had the music of Twilight Princess episode, which was that was way back. So hopefully, we'll catch up until the review episode.

David Geisler:

Love y'all and TYSM. Do you know what that means? Thank you so much. Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

You got it.

David Geisler:

You got it.

Kady Roberts:

You're learning.

David Geisler:

Two heart green heart emojis. Amazing. What was the screen name of the person again?

Kady Roberts:

Oh, that is Erafim, e r a p h I m.

David Geisler:

Erafim. Erafim. Erafim. Thank you so much. Yes.

David Geisler:

Twilight Princess is kind of my favorite classic Zelda game. We're actually saving it. I've actually asked Katie not to even poke I

Kady Roberts:

gonna say, yeah, like last episode you talked about how spirit tracks was the one that you like were gonna open and then you're like, no, I have to save it. I'm like that with Twilight Princess because it's like sitting there on my my Wii shelf and it's staring me down and I want to play it so bad, but I'm waiting because I know it's gonna be a big moment when I do. I think

David Geisler:

it's good and I think you should. And it is not a perfect game, but it is it is all encompassing. It was one of my favorites for sure. You know, were just talking in our we had a bonus episode on Patreon. We were talking about, like, kind of what is the classic Zelda aesthetic.

David Geisler:

And obviously, some of that's kind of started with Ocarina of Time. But in my opinion, Twilight Princess for me is the the the ultimate expression of the classic Zelda aesthetic. Because after that it was Skyward Sword and I like Skyward Sword aesthetic, but it was a little different. You're up in the clouds. But like good old fashioned, the monsters are actually kind of scary in Twilight It's a

Kady Roberts:

very grim y, like Yeah. Art style, which I love. That's what drew me to it initially. It was just the art style alone.

David Geisler:

Yeah. And so it was it was it was it was the best Zelda game out yet when it came out. And so I like it a lot. And absolutely, we're kinda saving it and we'll definitely get to it.

Kady Roberts:

Nice. So this is over on YouTube, Wind Waker First Impressions. And this is from Triforce Liz. And here's my overly scientific brain thinking they couldn't have River Zora in a saltwater ocean and that's why they got turned into birds. I really love these episodes.

Kady Roberts:

It's so exciting to get to hear from someone who's playing a Zelda game for the first time, especially someone as enthusiastic and thoughtful as Katie. You stop.

David Geisler:

Wow. Look at that.

Kady Roberts:

Despite its many flaws, I have some positive hot takes about Phantom Hourglass. So I'm looking forward to that episode, five green hearts. Oh, you so much.

David Geisler:

Yes. Yes. We are actively playing Phantom Hourglass right now, pardon me, to get ready for our Phantom Hourglass review. I'm very excited about it. It's our first time doing a DS game.

David Geisler:

I'm excited.

Kady Roberts:

I think this next book's also about Phantom Hourglass. We have a lot of people talking about it now.

David Geisler:

Well, is coming off the Hey Listen volume four episode, which is what our big, you know, we have a big listener feedback episode we did just a little while back. This is from Kingo F73. I love that there are so many people who appreciate Phantom Hourglass as much as me. It was my first Zelda game after my mom gave me my mom gave me her DS. It made me fall in love with the toon art style.

David Geisler:

Keep up the good work. AZP team. 123456789101112. Green heart emojis. I think it was about 12.

David Geisler:

That's great. Kingo f seventy three, thank you very much. That's cool. You got a little you got a hand me down from your mom from the DS. I love it.

David Geisler:

And first Zelda game, Phantom Argolass being the first Zelda game. That's intense.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. It's such an interesting one to be your first. I never really thought about, like, that being the first one, but I it's a fun game from what I've played so far.

David Geisler:

So far, just quickly, so we Mhmm. We'll get into our episode in a second. The it was it was the first Zelda game that had a truly different control mechanic. Yeah. How is that suiting you?

Kady Roberts:

It threw me for a second. I'm not gonna lie, but I have come to kind of enjoy it. I really like I like the tactical ness of things. So I like marking stuff on my map. Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

Writing stuff down. And the only thing that I still mess up on a lot is that you use the stick to move, like the touchpad to move.

David Geisler:

Like you touch the screen?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

Okay.

Kady Roberts:

That you drag to move. Because every time I impulsively, I'm playing it on the 3DS, so I go to my analog stick and I try to move around and be like, why is my game broken? And then I remember.

David Geisler:

And then probably if you push right on your analog stick, it just queues up the map on the bottom thing and probably the little, you know.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. I'm like, oh.

David Geisler:

I've done that once or twice. Sometimes I play it like like this, Katie. I'll I'll literally as I'm working here or editing, sometimes I'll put it flat on my desk and play it with no hands and just play it touch style, which you can do. It's not quite as efficient because, like, you can do the left L button to bring up items and stuff like that.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, I never even knew that.

David Geisler:

Try it when you're holding it. If you hold hold if you push left L, it'll take that item and activate it. You can just, activate, touch, and unactivate, which is nice.

Kady Roberts:

Oh.

David Geisler:

Just poke poke around

Kady Roberts:

with it. That is really nice because, yeah, that's been a little bit

David Geisler:

When you gotta go up and touch it

Kady Roberts:

and bring it back

David Geisler:

and switch an item. Technically, you can play the entire game just by touching the screen, but the, you know, all the little buttons on the left side kind of have like little hot keys.

Kady Roberts:

No. I love that.

David Geisler:

Cool. Awesome. Was that it for our listener feedback?

Kady Roberts:

Yep. Just those short and sweet.

David Geisler:

Katie, Katie, Katie.

Kady Roberts:

Yes. Yes. Yes.

David Geisler:

I'll start first so that you get the final

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

Top 10. I'm gonna start with my fifth in the list here, then I have, like, maybe two or three honorable mentions. I oh my gosh. Can I read my own handwriting? I have my selection.

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

And yes, I want them so bad.

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

But almost all of them, I'm kinda like, woah. Wait. All of these are really dangerous, and, like, would I survive using them?

Kady Roberts:

I got practical. I got practical with mine. Cool.

David Geisler:

I can't wait to hear. So the first one is it was 12, 3. Yep. Yep. Yep.

David Geisler:

Okay. This one's dangerous.

Kady Roberts:

Okay.

David Geisler:

But not the way you expect. Uh-huh. I think my first item that I would like to have in real life would be the mask of truth from Majora's Mask. It's dangerous because maybe you don't always wanna know all the truth. Maybe seeing too much truth is a is a is a dangerous thing.

David Geisler:

Pardon me. Wait. What's going on here with your face? You're making a face. Is it on your list?

David Geisler:

Mhmm. Okay. We'll find out where it hits. We'll find out where it hits and we'll fill in with our honorable mentions. For me, we'll save it then, I guess.

David Geisler:

For me, mask of truth. Yeah. Yeah. That'd be great to to be able to see where things are where they aren't or to be able to know things that you wouldn't know, but also I feel like that might be

Kady Roberts:

I have it down for a completely different reason.

David Geisler:

Sometimes I feel like ignorance in some you gotta trust the people in your life and trust is important. And if you have the mask of truth, maybe that kills the trust as well is all I'm saying.

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

Alright.

Kady Roberts:

Should I should I just say where that's on my list and we could talk about it? It's not like

David Geisler:

super What do wanna say about four. Oh, okay. That's not too So it's

Kady Roberts:

not too far.

David Geisler:

Why did you pick it?

Kady Roberts:

I didn't pick it for wanting to know the truth. I picked it because you can talk to small animals.

David Geisler:

That's great.

Kady Roberts:

And you can know what dogs are thinking. So, that's why I picked it because I like animals. I like to talk to animals. I wanna know what my cat's thinking.

David Geisler:

Do you really though? No.

Kady Roberts:

Just kidding. Oh yeah.

David Geisler:

Of course you do. Yeah. Oh, I'd love that. I love that. It's funny when we play we there's a couple characters in our D and D campaign that they have like the whole animal speak to animals spell.

David Geisler:

Yes. And it's interesting as a DM when I play the animals that they're speaking to, part of my logic is like, you if okay. If you were able to if you were able to talk to your dog Mhmm. Go back to this mask the truth thing. I don't think the dog would be like, yes.

David Geisler:

Well, indubitably, it is quite the metaphor for humanity when we're discussing the blah blah blah. They would just be like, squirrel.

Kady Roberts:

Was gonna say, not like the Rick and Morty squirrels episode where

David Geisler:

do you know about this episode? Not the squirrel one. Oh, yeah. Was doing squirrel from Up.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, yeah. But Morty's like, I wanna know what the squirrels are saying. So Rick gets some disability and the squirrels are like, is that kid looking at us? The kid's looking at us. And then like the squirrel mob comes after him.

Kady Roberts:

It's crazy.

David Geisler:

Oh my gosh.

Kady Roberts:

But yeah, the game Baldur's Gate three, which is a D and D game. I always make sure I have speak with animals because it's so fun talking to them. You find like this one hairless cat called the king and he's like, yes, pet me and bring me milk, my subject and all this kind

David Geisler:

of stuff. Oh, interesting. The way I've been DMing it is that I kinda have it be like disparate words. Oh, yeah. Not really.

David Geisler:

Because I feel like the like, would a cat

Kady Roberts:

That's what realistically see. Anyways.

David Geisler:

Yeah. That's cool. Speak to animals. I love it.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Did you want me to do my number 5 or do you wanna hop to your number 4?

David Geisler:

Let's hear your 5.

Kady Roberts:

Okay. My number five is also from Majora's Mask. It is the Zora's Mask because look I'm in. When you're a kid, right, specifically, I feel like every young girl has had this. You go into the pool and you play mermaids.

David Geisler:

Mhmm.

Kady Roberts:

How cool would it be if you could play mermaids IRL and actually become a mermaid?

David Geisler:

That's actually what the zora Come with zora?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. That's what the zora are. You put on the mask, you can breathe underwater, you can swim really fast. And it's great. You can do like a little spin attack under the water and you can play just mermaids for your life.

David Geisler:

You literally transform. Mhmm. That's funny. You'll you'll you'll enjoy what my number one is.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, nice.

David Geisler:

But it's not that. It's not the Zoro mask. Alright. Cool. Cool.

David Geisler:

Cool. Cool. Well, then let me tell you what my fourth is. It's another one of those where I feel like it'd be awesome, but also potentially dangerous. Though I guess you can only do it in certain spots, come to think of it.

David Geisler:

But I think it would be a ton of fun to have the minish cap.

Kady Roberts:

See, that's interesting because I don't know anything about the minish cap other than what you can shrink with it?

David Geisler:

Yeah. Basically, honey, I shrunk the kids yourself. You basically shrink down to, you know, being like a, know, the size of a

Kady Roberts:

Be like half Ant Man.

David Geisler:

It's it's it's small enough. Yeah. Like half Ant Man. I think you're smaller than like, I'm thinking about the Pikori right now. And it feels like they're small enough that normal sized people can't really fully see them.

David Geisler:

But there's also a rule that like only kids can see them or something like that. Once you become an adult, you can't. So maybe they're half the size of a mouse or something like that. They're kind of mouse like in their look and their aesthetic. But yeah.

David Geisler:

Because when you're because you can walk around and a dust ball is a big enough thing that it's in your presence. And a slime, well, referencing the first dungeon in Minish Cap, a normal slime that kind of bounces around in the game where, you know, there's always slimes in Zelda games. Right? I don't know. How do you think one of those is?

David Geisler:

A foot or two tall in most Zelda Probably.

Kady Roberts:

Feel like

David Geisler:

Two feet tall?

Kady Roberts:

Probably huge in the miniscap.

David Geisler:

They're they're entire like a bit the main boss of the first dungeon, is it a gigantic slime because it's actually just a normal sized slime, but they're tiny. I love But there's a lot of fun. They're sneaking around and all that kind of stuff. I think the Minish can also talk to cats, which is interesting. Or maybe the cats no, no.

David Geisler:

The cats attack you. It's a whole different thing. So that's where I'm like, oh, no. Would it be dangerous? You know?

David Geisler:

It would be oh, it'd be so much fun to be small, but, like, would you be eaten by a spider? Yeah. But I think it could be fun. So I think Minish the Minish Cap would be neat to sneak around and do different things, but then, I don't know, maybe my cat have to have

Kady Roberts:

a little bird on your head, though.

David Geisler:

That's you'd have a the hat would be talking back at you the whole time, a little sass pot talking back at you.

Kady Roberts:

You'll you'll be going to your fancy event in your suit and tie and then with your bird hat.

David Geisler:

What did I say about Minish Cap? I said that it's not on my list. I think I'm gonna take it off my list. And yeah. Yeah.

David Geisler:

I'm just gonna take that off, and I'm gonna switch it with the the Cana Samaria. Let's do that. That's one of my honorable mentions. No. I'm just joking around.

David Geisler:

Oh, okay. You were like, you were scared there in your face.

Kady Roberts:

No. I was like, did I ruin this

David Geisler:

for you? Are we doing this? No. That's alright. So your four was?

Kady Roberts:

The truth bass.

David Geisler:

Yep. Yep.

Kady Roberts:

My three. We're going to three now.

David Geisler:

We're we're kind of flying along right now. I gotta be honest. Yeah. Normally, go to three after the break, but we're only twenty minutes into this episode. But let's do it.

David Geisler:

Okay. What's your number 3? Maybe this is quick 1.

Kady Roberts:

Number 3 is Ocarina of Time.

David Geisler:

The the Ocarina?

Kady Roberts:

No. No. It's from the game Ocarina

David Geisler:

of because I thought about putting that on there and then I was like, don't wanna mess with time travel. Yeah. I feel like time travel is dangerous.

Kady Roberts:

It is the bunny hood that you can get if you do all the little things.

David Geisler:

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Kady Roberts:

Because here's the thing. I thought about putting the Pegasus boots on, but the Pegasus boots, you can't turn. Yep. You just kinda go forward.

David Geisler:

Mhmm.

Kady Roberts:

Which kinda sucks. From like a real life perspective, the bunny hood does the same thing. It makes you super fast and it makes you jump really high and really far. Yep. And it's cute.

Kady Roberts:

Right? I could wear my little bunny ears around and everyone would think that was adorable.

David Geisler:

Yeah. Yeah. I support it. I get it. I totally agree.

David Geisler:

I almost put the bunny suit on mine as well and I almost put the Pegasus boots on my list, Pegasus boots. I didn't ultimately put the Pegasus boots on. I'm getting tongue tied. Because I thought, like, you know, like in the video game this is the thing about video game logic and real life logic. Like in the game, Link runs full speed ahead.

David Geisler:

If he hits a wall, you know, he falls down, whatever. I'm like, that is a full on concussion in real life. I do not wanna be vaulting towards a wall at 30 miles an hour.

Kady Roberts:

Well, that's why I chose instead of the Pegasus boots, the bunny hood because that you're able to turn really easily. You're able to stop really easily. And also, am someone I like being on time, but I have a bad habit of being late anyway. Just because in the city, things don't tend to work out when it comes to public transport, and apps lie to you about when the bus is coming.

David Geisler:

Whenever there's you gotta add ten minutes to any transfer. Yeah. And that's that's if you have two transfers, gotta add twenty minutes to your commute. Are you kidding me?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. So if I could just put the little hat on and run my way to work, perfect.

David Geisler:

I just realized in real life, my version of that is my bicycle. Like, honestly, the fastest way to get around the city is my bike. It's faster than Uber's. It's faster than driving your own car. It literally is on the map.

David Geisler:

Like, you can look at the numbers, be and see that they're they're that that the quickest way to get around, certainly Chicago, compared to walking, public transportation, or driving is biking. It's actually the quickest way I've

Kady Roberts:

ever Exactly. And that's why I picked it because I don't have a bike yet.

David Geisler:

Yep.

Kady Roberts:

I'm getting one. I'm getting an electric bike

David Geisler:

for something Yeah. Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

But until then, the bunny hood.

David Geisler:

Cool. Cool. Love it. Maybe we do go to break right now even though I guess this is a wait. No.

David Geisler:

Yeah. No. I do my three.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Wait. We're going backwards.

David Geisler:

No. 54321.

Kady Roberts:

No. No. No. I I think I went before you were supposed to go.

David Geisler:

Well, how about this?

Kady Roberts:

Anyway We'll

David Geisler:

go to break, and then I'll do my three.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

Oh, I like my three a lot. So

Kady Roberts:

now it's

David Geisler:

a nice little nice little cliffhanger there. Nice. I like my three. Alright. I'll see you in, like, I'll see you on the other side of this head.

David Geisler:

Okay. And we are back. Katie. Yeah. Just to recap.

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

We've had the lens of truth, mask of truth. Sorry. The minish cap. Mhmm. The bunny hood.

Kady Roberts:

And the Zoras mask. And the what? The Zoras mask.

David Geisler:

The Zoras mask. I misheard you say and Majora's mask. And I was like, Katie.

Kady Roberts:

I don't wanna wear Majora's Katie. Please know.

David Geisler:

What has what has come of you? I

Kady Roberts:

mean, it looks cool, but I don't want my soul being stolen or whatever it does.

David Geisler:

Basically. Yeah. Basically. Yeah. Absolutely.

David Geisler:

Oh, cool. So every single one of my picks is, like, I think dangerous in real life. That's the thing. It's video game logic. But my my number three pick, I'll say it's transportation based.

Kady Roberts:

Can

David Geisler:

and could you guess what it might be?

Kady Roberts:

Is it the motorcycle from Breath of the Wild?

David Geisler:

No. But that'd be kind of fun,

Kady Roberts:

I think.

David Geisler:

Yeah. No.

Kady Roberts:

Don't tell me you chose like the Deku Leaf or something.

David Geisler:

Well, kind of and something. I chose the paraglider. Oh. Shut up. Why?

David Geisler:

Did you choose the paraglider?

Kady Roberts:

No. I didn't. But I'm kinda scared of heights a little bit, so the thought of, like, just jumping off a building with the paraglider is scary to me.

David Geisler:

So here's the thing. I would love yeah. I know. I I would absolutely pick the paraglider to, do the navigation. I'm a little scared of heights myself.

David Geisler:

Uh-huh. I love taking hikes in the wilderness. I have no problem going up on cliffs and all that kind of stuff. But, you know, you gotta be careful. I when I rock climb, I get a little somewhere around 60 feet up if I'm rock climbing, I kinda like freeze up a little.

David Geisler:

I gotta like I kinda, know, get a little scared. Uh-huh. Somewhere around 40 feet, you start your hands your your palms start to sweat a little. And around 60 feet, I just can't go much higher than that. Mm-mm.

David Geisler:

But with that said, yeah, I mean well, okay. So here's the thing. Like, is it with the logic of the game or is it real world logic? Because logic of the game is like, if you if you jump off a cliff and you're too you're gonna run out of your stamina. You just know, let's say in real life

Kady Roberts:

You put it away. It back up.

David Geisler:

Put it back away and put it right back up right at the end. It's the whole, like, jump at the end of an elevator as it's falling thing. And, like, real life doesn't work like that. You'd rip your arms off Mhmm. If I may.

David Geisler:

And, you know, if it if it was a paraglider that glided as smoothly as it does in the game, but also you could land in a realistic safe way, oh yeah, that'd be a blast.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, no. Absolutely. I was thinking everything from a very real point of view. So for me, I'm like, there's nothing keeping you in like a normal paraglider. You're just holding on with your bare arms praying that you don't, the wind doesn't take you off track or anything.

David Geisler:

That's very true. Yeah. Because you get a gust and just, it just whips you around.

Kady Roberts:

But game logic, absolutely a paraglider is wonderful.

David Geisler:

That's the thing that's tricky. It's like where does it, where's the line?

Kady Roberts:

Mhmm.

David Geisler:

Well, then I guess I was responding to the ability to navigate terrain Mhmm. Atypically. That's pretty broad. No. You know, the truth is probably I'd be because here's the thing, there's no part of me ever in my life that wants to bungee jump.

David Geisler:

No part of me

Kady Roberts:

ever in

David Geisler:

my life that wants to skydive. There's no part of me that wants to do any of those things. Part of me is kinda like, I've made it this far. Why take the risk? But I also know, okay, fine, blah blah blah, it's safe.

David Geisler:

Well, now you're you know you know what's hysterical? You're kinda flipping me out all my items here.

Kady Roberts:

No. I'm so sorry.

David Geisler:

You what I wanna do is I wanna take paraglider off the list, and I wanna replace it with ball and chain. Ball and chain. I'm gonna bring it in. So ball and chain. What?

David Geisler:

I'm just joking.

Kady Roberts:

Okay. I I thought you were talking about the Chain Chomp. I'm like I mean, I thought about him,

David Geisler:

but No. Not Chain Chomp. Ball and Chain Wall from Twilight Princess. It's actually

Kady Roberts:

not even

David Geisler:

Twilight Princess. Actually, have a couple honorable mentions from Twilight Princess. The ball and chain, Link literally swings around a huge ball and chain and throws it at things. Kinda like

Kady Roberts:

It's a it's like a is it called a mace? A morning star?

David Geisler:

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think the mace is when it's on the handle.

Kady Roberts:

Think the morning

David Geisler:

star might be on the chain. It's basically a massive morning star. And the most hysterical thing about it is that he swings it and then and then, like, when he when he holds it, he has to walk really slow because heavy. But then he puts it away quote unquote and it disappears and he can just run Just like just like the, you know, the lead boots in Ocarina of Time or whatever they are. Iron boots.

David Geisler:

Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna stick with paraglider. I'm joking around. What's your number three?

Kady Roberts:

Well, my number three was the bunny thing.

David Geisler:

Oh, did it already.

Kady Roberts:

That's what I was saying. I think we flipped on accident. So did you want me to do my number two or did you wanna do number two?

David Geisler:

No. Let's hear your number two. Oh, wait. No. We did flip by accident.

David Geisler:

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No. I'll do it.

David Geisler:

I'll go. 100%, this is actually the first thing I thought of when we thought about doing this topic. Immediately, I was like, yes and this. But I also feel like it would this is a little violent, but I feel like it would, like, rip my arms off. It's like all these things are like you know, Link is like, video game logic, he's so strong.

David Geisler:

He runs at 25 miles an hour in Breath of the Wild if you really look at, like, how fast he's actually moving. But it's 100%. It's the dual hook shot and which is seen in Twilight Princess. Yeah. The the hook shot where it's it's actual, like well, hooks, not just clamps.

David Geisler:

And he has one in each hand and he basically Spider Man's, but he's not Spider Man ing swinging. He's like he clips Yeah. And pulls you straight just like in Ocarina of Time.

Kady Roberts:

Uh-huh.

David Geisler:

Thing is, I was thinking about that and I was like, oh my gosh. You're gonna get a an arm joint pulled out of your socket. Or what happens when you actually get there? You're gonna go smashing into the thing that you're, like, landing at. You know, in a video game world, he just kinda stops and he stands and you've done it.

David Geisler:

You know?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. No. I I agree. I would say if it well, I was making that argument with the paraglider that, oh, if it works it doesn't work like that in the real world.

David Geisler:

Mhmm.

Kady Roberts:

But I would say with, like, the hook shot, I would think it would work how it does in the game where it doesn't harm you to use it. But maybe if you like, you know, you let go of it. But I don't know.

David Geisler:

You'd have to like really brace for that impact and kind of keep your feet out. And I will say when he's doing like hooks on the sides of walls, when he clamps up, he kind of like rests on the wall. Like he takes the takes the hit a little. It's not quite as abrupt as in Ocarina of Time where you just kind of hit the thing and then fall or whatever.

Kady Roberts:

I mean, that's good.

David Geisler:

No, I think we got to go real world. I think we got to go real world because that is the that is the conceit of the episode. What items we want in the real world? And I'm realizing that a lot of my items, I want them, but in the real world, don't know how realistic they are. Yeah.

David Geisler:

Dual hook shot though because he goes up and he can go up. He can shoot straight up and actually climb the like it'll climb as well. And then he can shoot horizontal and go another way and stuff like It's a ton of fun.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, are you okay?

David Geisler:

Yeah. Make sure you're caught on the Oh,

Kady Roberts:

my god. Has your arm.

David Geisler:

I was using the hook shot.

Kady Roberts:

Makes sense.

David Geisler:

Absolutely.

Kady Roberts:

Sorry. I was listening and I was talking. I was also scrolling. Copy. I was trying to think.

Kady Roberts:

Cool. No, no, no. Not of disrespect out of me analyzing my choices and also being like, how do I feel about this? Switching things out.

David Geisler:

What's your number two?

Kady Roberts:

My number two Look, realistically it would be Link's arm, but that doesn't really count as an item in my brain.

David Geisler:

I think you're right. I think it doesn't.

Kady Roberts:

So I put the Sheikah Slate.

David Geisler:

Interesting.

Kady Roberts:

Because it still has some cool abilities where you can do like the ultra hand and like move stuff around. And you can do the bombs, which

David Geisler:

what would I

Kady Roberts:

use bombs I don't know. Maybe someone makes me upset. I can do like stasis so I can freeze stuff. I think it'd be funny to maybe freeze my cat for a second. But also it just works like an actual phone, you know?

David Geisler:

Well, that's so funny. I didn't put it on my list

Kady Roberts:

because In teleport places?

David Geisler:

Oh my god. I'm so embarrassed. I didn't put it on my list because I was like, we already have iPads. Why why don't we get it? Why do we need this thing?

David Geisler:

But it has all those features. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Crazy features. Touch on the map and get teleported to where you need to go, provided that doesn't I mean, assume it doesn't hurt Link at all.

David Geisler:

Mean, he

Kady Roberts:

gets hurt in a million more. Chill about it?

David Geisler:

Magical sparks. He's like no reaction to it at all.

Kady Roberts:

I should have said that as my

David Geisler:

number one. What? Sheikah Slate?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Think it was originally my number one and then I switched it and now I'm like, nah, should

David Geisler:

have When you think about like not Ultra Hand, but even yeah. What what's the Ultra Hand version in Breath of the Wild? What's it called?

Kady Roberts:

Oh, think is it not Ultra Hand?

David Geisler:

Ultra Hand is Tears of the Kingdom. Oh. It's the one where you can pick up metal

Kady Roberts:

from Yeah. That's that one. I like that one a lot.

David Geisler:

Yeah. I don't I can't remember what it's called.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, yeah.

David Geisler:

But anyway Yeah. Magnesis or something like that.

Kady Roberts:

Magnesis. It is Magnesis.

David Geisler:

And then even You

Kady Roberts:

got cryos, the cryo

David Geisler:

The water.

Kady Roberts:

Freeze. Cryo freeze stasis. You got the camera on it. You got the map on it.

David Geisler:

100% now. Everything. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

I take

David Geisler:

that back.

Kady Roberts:

That's my number one.

David Geisler:

We're breaking our we're breaking our list as we go.

Kady Roberts:

We really are. That's alright. I'll I will claim it's my number two, but no no right now that it's

David Geisler:

actually number one on my part. Let's keep it as two, and then we'll see what our honorable mentions are, and then maybe we have to, like, rebuild this thing. I don't know.

Kady Roberts:

That would actually be fun.

David Geisler:

Let's see. Alright. Dual hook shot. I just want it. So I want it to work so bad.

David Geisler:

I you know, you have to like it's also funny because, like, you look at, like, the like, how to train your dragon and they're like how they, like, strap themselves into the dragons and stuff. You're like, that is so cool. All of those shoulders are getting dislocated. Yeah. So my number one is a little bit like your number five.

Kady Roberts:

Are you doing number one or honorable mentions first?

David Geisler:

Oh. Oh. Oh. Honorable mentions first. You're right.

David Geisler:

We gotta do it like what was it called? Go dad mojo?

Kady Roberts:

Oh. Go mojo? Watch

David Geisler:

mojo. My am I, like, just aging nine hundred years every episode? And I'm sorry. I'm just getting more and more disconnected.

Kady Roberts:

That come from?

David Geisler:

I I couldn't remember watching Mojo. Like, I what is happening?

Kady Roberts:

Well, you said you didn't know who she was.

David Geisler:

Well, that's Ms. Mojo.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, Ms. Mojo.

David Geisler:

Yeah. But Ms. Mojo.

Kady Roberts:

I watch Ms. Mojo more than watch Mojo,

David Geisler:

to be

Kady Roberts:

honest. But

David Geisler:

yeah. Just it's cool. It's cool. All right. Here we go.

David Geisler:

Oh, so I'm I'm so somewhat I used some of my elbow mentions to to to bring up. That's alright. But I'll speak to it now. The Cane of the Cane of Samari is in Link to the Past.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, that's why I

David Geisler:

don't know. Super Nintendo game. And it basically lets you build a block, which I think is super cool. Mostly in that game, you use it to, like, push it over switches and stuff like that when you just had a reaction. What's going on?

Kady Roberts:

I just thought of something as my new number one. Continue.

David Geisler:

Interesting. And a bit a bit like making the ice cube blocks in Breath of the Wild or or one of my other favorite Nintendo games ever. It was started as an arcade game, but I know it to be a Nintendo game is oh my gosh. I almost said Milan's secret castle, but it's not that. I can't remember the name of it, but it's a game where you make blocks and you take blocks away.

David Geisler:

You can make yourself basically, it's a building game. And I thought, well, that'd be kind of fun. You know? Maybe you can build your stuff to get up higher or lower. But I also thought real world logic, totally dangerous.

David Geisler:

Like, what if you built you can't really change the size of the block. So what if you just build it just wrong and you crush a tree that's in your backyard by accident or you you you know what I mean? Like, you take out half a wall because you you you zapped it in at the wrong place. But it is what it is.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

That's one of I've got a couple other honorable mentions. I got the ball and chain from Twilight Princess, which would be kind of fun to have to swing and, like, break stuff. But or really, I think it's more the implied skill that comes with it because if this ball and chain is so strong and heavy and then you can just throw it in your pocket and run around, you know, what else can you do with that ability? It's really, I think, what you're thinking what I'm thinking. My next honorable mention is probably what fans of the show think is gonna be my number one.

David Geisler:

Because I've spoken about this item many times, and I don't think you've experienced it yet either because again, it's a lot Twilight Princess has some pretty creative items. I gotta I'm realizing as we're talking about this. A lot of unique or first time or one of a kind items. My other honorable mention is the spinner. I think people would maybe think that that'd be my top because I was like, every time I talk about the spinner on the show, I'm like, It's so cool.

David Geisler:

You're riding on the sides of the walls. You flip them back and forth. You're Oh, it's the coolest thing ever. And I agree. I actually think that the idea of doing that is awesome, but it's another one of those these like what happens in real life.

Kady Roberts:

If you get motion sick.

David Geisler:

You get motion sickness or you're on this thing and it's ricketing. I mean, I love roller coasters in real life, but it's ricketing up and there's times where you can jump from one rail to another and stuff like that. I'm kind of like, how is he staying on that thing? And

Kady Roberts:

so Just like go to Epic Universe and ride Curse of the Werewolf, and I'm assuming it's the same vibe.

David Geisler:

Well, here's the thing. Link doesn't actually spin when he's on the spinner. The spinner spins below him. Oh. Like, he's like on a top, and he rides it like a cool dude with

Kady Roberts:

a rude Okay. That's cool.

David Geisler:

It's like a skateboard.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

I'll show you a picture later. It is cool and I think it would be my number one, but also I don't think it would really work that great in real life because you kind of the conceit is that these tracks already exist in the world. You can't just climb on walls of nothing. Feel like

Kady Roberts:

they'll just break things.

David Geisler:

Yeah. You just kinda be, like, riding around on your weird top

Kady Roberts:

and going Yeah.

David Geisler:

And

Kady Roberts:

But, like, if the world was built instead of stairs, they had those things. That'd be cool.

David Geisler:

It'd be like these weird kind of like top segue kind of lean into it kind of things.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Like the little chairs that people, they like can't walk upstairs very well. They like sit in the chairs and it brings them up the stairs.

David Geisler:

The spinner is like that at like a 100 miles an hour.

Kady Roberts:

Well, yeah. Beautiful. You go all the way up to the Fiftieth Floor real quick.

David Geisler:

Cool. I just feel like it would be hard to survive that thing, but it is really neat. It is really cool. So that's an honorable mention. I don't know.

David Geisler:

What are some of your honorable mentions?

Kady Roberts:

Honorable mentions. I'm gonna say the one that I just thought like, oh, this is gonna be my new number one. I take it back. It won't be my new number one. It will be honorable mention.

Kady Roberts:

If it counts as an honorable mention or as an item. Zelda's wand and echoes of wisdom. Woah. Woah. Because I don't know if that technically counts as an item because

David Geisler:

It's witchcraft.

Kady Roberts:

Try or yeah. Try that kind of is something with it. So that's where I'm like, don't know if it counts, but I have two other honorable mentions just in case. It would be cool to have though where you can just make things appear.

David Geisler:

Make the echoes?

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. I can just make a cobbling appear and make it my manservant. You know? That's Yeah.

David Geisler:

Right. Do my laundry. Full of laundry.

Kady Roberts:

Ugh. I have to do my laundry game. Zoom.

David Geisler:

Anyway. Those are demon powers. You gotta be careful.

Kady Roberts:

I know. Things are not looking good for those with witchcraft. My other two honorable mentions though. One is kinda silly, but it's the Goron tunic because it makes you immune to heat and I run really warm.

David Geisler:

I like that. That's interesting.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. So, you know, Goron tunic, you spice it up with some some jewelry, but then you can wear it out in the 90 degree weather and feel not sweaty and gross.

David Geisler:

Yeah. That's not bad. And it's obviously imbued with magic because Link's skin is still visually exposed. Yeah. That was the one thing they did in Breath of the Wild that was kinda cool is that the actual suit kinda looks like it could resist heat.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. It looks like a firefighter suit.

David Geisler:

Look like a firefighter suit. Obviously, in a lot of the other games, you just wear this red tunic and it's kind of like, you know, his the idea is that he's in an area where the air is so hot that it's actually starting to burn his skin a little. Yeah. And so there's gotta be some magic involved there that you could use. So even if it's 90 degrees, so does 90 degrees in a Goron's tunic?

Kady Roberts:

I feel like it would just make it feel like a like a room temperature.

David Geisler:

Like if it's magic.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, yeah.

David Geisler:

Yeah. Yeah. Room temperature all the time. I think that's where my headcanon's going to be. Yeah.

David Geisler:

If it's magic based. Yeah. You know? Yeah. Absolutely.

Kady Roberts:

And then my last honorable mention is the Ocarina of Time. Yep. I had to put it because Ocarina of Time honestly would be my, like, number two. However, I have to play the Ocarina and play it correctly. I have an Ocarina that I bought at a Ren Faire and I'm not good at it.

Kady Roberts:

And I feel like if I mess up well, I guess you can mess up playing the songs And it just doesn't do do anything. But still, it'll make me a little bit nervous. And also some of the stuff, there's a lot that the Ocarina can do, but it really only works if you're doing it within the context of the game. Otherwise, it's like, why am I using this song for something? So yeah, that's why it's an honorable mention and it didn't make my actual

David Geisler:

list. And if you're considering the time travel part, I don't know if it specifically is always seven years. I think there might have been something with the sages that made it be those seven years. But even that, remember Link kept aging through that. He was just in frozen stasis.

David Geisler:

I mean, to him it was like

Kady Roberts:

a blink of an He

David Geisler:

kept aging. And so do you really wanna jump to 28 or 29 or whatever it is?

Kady Roberts:

Exactly.

David Geisler:

And then just jump back for the heck of it, see what has changed in the meantime. What's the best real life feature of the Ocarina? Is it starting to stopping the rain maybe?

Kady Roberts:

No. Because I like the rain.

David Geisler:

Sure. But being able to, like, bring it when you want it

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Too.

David Geisler:

You could, like, plant all your plant your garden and just be like, and rain now.

Kady Roberts:

I like the Ocarina because if we're also using it in terms of Majora's Mask, you can start the day over. You can speed the day up if your day is boring.

David Geisler:

That's true.

Kady Roberts:

Slow the day down. You can teleport places. But is it worth it?

David Geisler:

The teleportation part might be the best feature of the Ocarina. If we're trying to think of in real life things. Because here's the thing about having the day go faster and having the day go slower, that's cool, but I think, and this really isn't addressed in the games, but like, is your perception of time the same as the people around you? Are you if the day's going half as fast, is everyone around you moving half as fast? You know, in the game it just kind of the ticker clicks slower and everything keeps going.

David Geisler:

So then does everybody move? Is everyone moving half as fast or twice as fast? Then you're changing the rotation of the Earth and you can't even and the solar system goes out of whack.

Kady Roberts:

I don't

David Geisler:

know how

Kady Roberts:

it's going.

David Geisler:

But anyway

Kady Roberts:

What's your number one?

David Geisler:

I enjoy swimming. Yeah. I've always been a little bit of a water bug, but I vastly enjoy swimming underwater. Even when I'm in a pool, you know, keep finding you do the breaststroke or something above, but it's like, it's way more fun to get down underneath and swim underwater and have that kind of, you know, weightless feeling or whatever. So I picked the Zora scale, not even thinking about the Zora mask.

David Geisler:

I just thought like, Yeah, that'd great. Just be able to breathe underwater. That's cool. And the reason I'm going to stick with Zora scale I mean, I guess Zora mask would do the same thing, but I feel like Zora's scale

Kady Roberts:

Well, Zora's mask changes you into a Zora.

David Geisler:

And I might add, apparently slightly painfully. You know, when you see those transformations.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah, guess you're right.

David Geisler:

I think Maybe you haven't seen it yet. Haven't yet.

Kady Roberts:

I was gonna say I've seen it screamed the Deku one. Yeah.

David Geisler:

In agony. And the Zora's transformation is actually the scariest one in Majora's Mask. But anyway I

Kady Roberts:

haven't seen it yet.

David Geisler:

With the Zora's scale, I figure it's magic because Link can go hundreds of feet underwater and his ear drums aren't Oh yeah, absolutely. It's magic. He he can basically walk, you know, he can breathe or whatever. No. Yes.

David Geisler:

Yes. He can breathe. And so, to be able to be underwater, to be able to swim underwater as if to be able to swim underwater hundreds of feet below as if you're swimming underwater two feet below, I think is really cool.

Kady Roberts:

No, that is cool. I like that pick.

David Geisler:

Then I but yeah, then you think about it, you're like, I don't know, maybe do you really wanna go that deep a lake? That's terrifying.

Kady Roberts:

Well, yeah. But then you still have the option of going back up.

David Geisler:

It's all just swimming pools. Really just swimming No. Yeah. Yeah. So I think I think Zora's scale was the closest one to kind of being like an actual in real life item that wouldn't pull my arms out of my sockets.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. No. I like that pick. I didn't even think about it. Very nice.

David Geisler:

What do you got?

Kady Roberts:

My number one, I don't know how practical it is, but I like the thought of it, is the wind waker. I like the wind

David Geisler:

The baton?

Kady Roberts:

The baton. Because let's think, the baton itself is magic. Yeah. Controls the winds.

David Geisler:

That's how it controls. It does more? It does does more.

Kady Roberts:

It does more.

David Geisler:

Okay. Tell me.

Kady Roberts:

Because think, you conduct many a song with the Wind Waker. And that's the thing, unlike Ocarina, you don't gotta learn how to play play anything. You just gotta move your arm left and right. You can you can teleport with it. You can do all these things.

Kady Roberts:

Was trying not to was trying not to show my colors with talking about the Ocarina. But look, you can teleport with it. You can slow down your day. And with that one, it really does

David Geisler:

Slow the people down? Or

Kady Roberts:

you I don't think you can Speed book. Yeah. You can speed things up. You can make it go from day to night. So you don't teleport, but you just change.

Kady Roberts:

I mean, it kind of. Can make it day to night. But everyone else moves around, so whatever.

David Geisler:

I don't know if you can teleport with the Wind Waker. I think the only way you teleport in the game is the

Kady Roberts:

get the Gale of

David Geisler:

Songs. Is the tornadoes. Oh, yeah.

Kady Roberts:

The Gale of the yep. It's the song that calls him to do that.

David Geisler:

Yeah. That's right. Ho.

Kady Roberts:

The only downside is that, will I have to be in a boat to teleport?

David Geisler:

Yeah. Can you not do it from an island? Don't think I've No.

Kady Roberts:

I've never done. In the boat to use it. Yeah. So that's why I'm like, that's my downside. But theoretically, if I don't have to be, it sounds like a really, really fun one to have.

Kady Roberts:

And also, can just play music with, like, the wind, which is cool. Boom. Boom. Boom. Mhmm.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah.

David Geisler:

Cool. Wow. Yeah. I'm I'm sold on Wind Waker, and Schrodinger's waking up. Hey, bud.

David Geisler:

Awesome. Well, I don't know. Maybe I think that's oh, I would like to say if anybody's had this one was a little trickier than I realized because it was like it's like, where do the caveats start and begin? But it's in real life. In real life.

David Geisler:

If anybody has any thoughts on items that they would like to contribute to this conversation, you're more than welcome to message us through Blue Sky or X or whatever you I would

Kady Roberts:

to see what people

David Geisler:

come with. Yeah. You can leave comments on our YouTube video or if you sign into our website, can leave comments right on the page for this for this episode. But I feel like maybe the social media posts would be the easiest to comment. Oh, you can comment directly on Spotify right now, which is cool.

David Geisler:

What would be oh, okay. I was about to say like, what would be the worst thing to have in real life? And it's probably like Majora's Mask or something terrible. They're like, well, yeah, there goes your life. Yeah.

David Geisler:

Oh, yeah. Alright. Excellent. I'd love to hear what other people think. Maybe there's some deep you know, I kind of thought about the fire rod.

David Geisler:

I thought, oh, that'd be cool to shoot out fireballs. But then I was kind of like, well, I don't know, man. I can start a fire on my own pretty okay. I don't know if I want to, like, shoot out a huge blast of a fireball in a forest. You know, those little things like that.

David Geisler:

I'm also was wondering I kind of considered I considered the the wristband that you wear to to become part of the walls in A Between I thought that could be kind of neat. But, I mean, he doesn't seem to be in pain.

Kady Roberts:

No. He doesn't seem to be in pain. My thing, I was looking at it and I'm like, well, I don't know what the practical like, it was one of those things. If I had it, it would be like, oh, that's cool. I have this.

Kady Roberts:

I don't think I'd be using it too often.

David Geisler:

In the game, you use it to kind of defy gravity a little bit and you mostly use it to go into the portals that push you back and forth between the two dimensions basically.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. Phenomenal in game

David Geisler:

idea. You're doing.

Kady Roberts:

But IRO item, I don't know.

David Geisler:

Yeah. It kinda turns the surfaces into like their own little side scroller and that's not something you probably really need in

Kady Roberts:

real life. Yeah. That's the thing. I'm like, don't know. Because there were there were a lot like that.

Kady Roberts:

Because I was thinking of Rock's Feather that lets you jump, I believe. And like Link's Awakening.

David Geisler:

Yes. Yeah.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. This is great item to have in game, but I can jump already in real life.

David Geisler:

And or I was thinking like, I guess the the you know, again, I actually almost put the high jump thing in there. Rock's feather, there's a few others that do it. There's a Rock's cape in miniscap. I guess it was like under the assumption that you would not be injuring your body and doing it. Yeah.

David Geisler:

That could be that could be kinda pretty cool. But how high is it? I would assume it's like twice the twice the height of a normal jump.

Kady Roberts:

But the bunny hood. That's where the bunny hood comes in.

David Geisler:

You're right. You're right.

Kady Roberts:

I love the bunny hood.

David Geisler:

You got it. Anyway. Appreciate that. Alright. Cool, Katie.

David Geisler:

If people can wanna wanna message you or find you somewhere on the Internet, where can they do that?

Kady Roberts:

You can find me on Instagram or also TikTok if you wanna see me make a fool of myself at k d stargazer, the letters k d. And also I don't have like a forever set schedule, but if I get one, I will be posting it on the radio station rocking eighty five five at iHeart. I do weekend shows, which is cool to say now.

David Geisler:

Fantastic. People can find me on all the socials at Raptor Paint. I'm Raptor Paint just about every everywhere. And, you can find the show, Another Zelda Podcast on all the things as well. And let's see.

David Geisler:

Or go to our website, anotherzeldapodcast.com where, of course, you can also log in and be a member totally for free and allows you to comment directly on the episodes right on our website and all of that. With that, I think we just get out of here, Katie. I think it's Yeah. I think there it is. I'm still I'm distracted right now because I'm still, you know, we had that listener feedback.

David Geisler:

I don't know if it was this episode or the previous episode about the I think it was this one about the scientific mind of the Zora, you know, needing to be in the salt water and all that. And I'm kind of finding myself doing OCD circles in my brain right now about every single item we just picked. Would you want to move we promised we promised we might move the order around a little Before we get out of here, is there anything on your list that now that we've talked about them, you'd want to move up or down?

Kady Roberts:

I would like to take off the Zoras mask because I I did not realize it was a painful thing.

David Geisler:

Oh, sure.

Kady Roberts:

Maybe just do the scale like you for my number five. But I I honestly would probably just switch the Wind Waker and the Sheikah Slate. But other than that, I'm pretty pleased.

David Geisler:

Looking at it now and after us talking about you kinda talked me into the spinner. I'd probably replace it with the paraglider, I think, at this point. Really? Yeah. You you scared me with the paraglider.

David Geisler:

Sorry. No. Because I really thought about it. I like, yeah. This is the coolest thing ever.

David Geisler:

Then I really thought about, wait. When you're up there, if it's real world physics, if even a even a quick gust

Kady Roberts:

Oh, that's what I'm saying.

David Geisler:

Hanging out with your hands.

Kady Roberts:

That happens in the in the game too when you ride around on your paraglider and wind comes and you're like, no. I wanna go that way.

David Geisler:

It's true. But if you ever see, you know, people who are doing like the little wings not the wingsuits, but even a normal hang glider situation, they can get really whipped around if you're hanging on with just your hands.

Kady Roberts:

Yeah. I don't know. It's scary. I would never

David Geisler:

And it doesn't and the paraglider doesn't seem to be magic enough that we could justify that. No. Link just has super strength to hang on. The way like It doesn't seem magic. The Zoris scale protects him from water.

Kady Roberts:

Oh, no. Absolutely.

David Geisler:

You know what I mean? Oh my gosh. Alright. Cool. Well, Katie, great.

David Geisler:

I'll see you in our next episode, you know, two weeks from now. Yeah. We're we're about halfway through our season right now. Did you know that?

Kady Roberts:

I didn't. Said that.

David Geisler:

Yeah. The halfway point.

Kady Roberts:

Ah, this is so fun.

David Geisler:

I'll see you on the other side.

Kady Roberts:

Bye.
