Ahem! Today I am going to tell you the story of the Thousand-Year Door.

That's right! We are discussing Paper Mario's Gamecube sequel! In today's episode we will be covering what this game does that makes it, for many people, the very peak of the Mario RPG series! Is it the gut-wrenching story? The flawless gameplay? Or could it because it's one of the few Mario titles with overt and canonical queer representation?

And I'll be joined by artist, animator and all-round good person Carl Doonan! He is responsible for some of the internet's best Mario art and you can found out more here: https://lnk.bio/carldoonan
