The whole Square Roots is out of sorts this week as they are obsessed with chilli dogs, and not really that interested in Sora revisiting the Disney worlds again. But that doesn't mean there's not a lot to talk about, like:
- "I Love That You Love It"- Evil Uncle Scratch- Fitness Deez Lutz- She Wants That Knot- Not Gas-X- Auron Action Figure
This Week: Land of Dragons 2, Beast's Castle 2, Olympus 2Next Week: Agrabah 2, Port Royal 2, Halloweentown 2, Pride Lands 2

The gang has mixed feelings over the ending of Kingdom Hearts 2 and are left with a lot of questions, like:
- Did any of this make sense?- Why did Johnny yell at Matthew?- Does what happened to Riku make more sense than the Marvel movies?- Should you be pressing the Y / triangle button more? Or the X / Square? Or not?- How do you pronounce Saix?- And of course, the long requested: would you eat this summon?
This Week: We finish Kingdom Hearts 2, Thank GodNext Week: Kaim goes to jail after defeating a big ol' wormy boy in Lost Odyssey
