24 APR 2024 · The boys are back nearly a year after Tears of the Kingdom's release to bring you a bonus episode reflecting on the latest installment in The Legend of Zelda series. Its massive scope has digested a bit and they have opinions (especially Isaac).
Also, guest Luke Stoutenburg shares how the new hit affected him in the midst of a deeper dive into the franchise in general. And an updated guest ranking list is "calculated" and shared!

10 MAY 2023 · The end of Butt Heads season 1 is here...for now! On the eve of the release of Tears of the Kingdom, the boys look back on their journey across the 19 (soon to be 20) mainline games in The Legend of Zelda series.
Tristan and Isaac walk through their respective lists, butting of heads actually results in some changes, the "Boscars Hemmys" are awarded to various outstanding aspects of the series, and friends of the show's first season share what Zelda means to them and their own ranked lists, all building to a crowd-sourced ultimate "guest list."
It's an extravaganza of Zelda love, with more sure to come with a Tears of the Kingdom bonus episode and season 2 news!

3 MAY 2023 · Breath of the Wild came out of the gate with fans calling it not only the best Zelda game, but also the best game of all time. That's quite the reputation to build in so little time and the boys discuss how that conflicts with their nostalgic feelings for older games in the series.
Plus, Corey Sotelo joins the show again for this penultimate episode, talking his in-depth experiences with the 2017 installment. He's gotten all the Korok seeds!

26 APR 2023 · Tri Force Heroes will always and forever be defined by how hard its structure and multiplayer is to access years removed from its 2015 release, however basically solid its gameplay is. The boys discuss that "disappointment..."
...but as Eric R. Miller (three-time guest and apparent resident multiplayer Zelda expert) points out, disappointment might be too strong a word.

19 APR 2023 · A Link Between Worlds' reputation as an underrated Zelda game is certainly earned, as the boys discuss one of the best 2D games in the series...and indeed, period!
Also, Madeleine Clermont returns and joins the three-time guest club to talk about how much she loves the game and how the 2013 installment was such a breath of fresh air.

12 APR 2023 · Skyward Sword faced a lot of revisionist history shortly after its release in 2011 and to this day is still beloved and harshly criticized. Both of the boys see the problems with it, but they mostly discuss how it's a magical time that carried a lot of the core emotions of the Zelda series.
They are also joined by guest Debe Ili (Isaac's own wife!) to discuss how this installment was her first Zelda game and her belated introduction to a whole world of gaming.

5 APR 2023 · The boys' conversation about Spirit Tracks has a lot in common with the one about Phantom Hourglass, but then this 2009 follow up is in fact quite similar to its predecessor. And that's not necessarily a good thing.
Guest Madeleine Clermont also returns to the show to be a bit of a moderating influence on some negativity!

29 MAR 2023 · Phantom Hourglass was novel in some ways, but both of the boys have issues with the 2007 Legend of Zelda game's "streamlining" of the series' formula and its inaccessible controls.
Additionally, guest Bella Stoutenburg (and Tristan's S.O.) comes on the show to go back into her childhood experiences with the game.

22 MAR 2023 · Twilight Princess has emerged as both a dark horse favorite and controversial installment in the Legend of Zelda series. The boys wrestle with both opinions as they range far and wide in their mega-discussion about the 2006 game.
Guest Trista Thurston also joins the show to highlight standout story elements and how Twilight Princess fit into an angsty teen's life.
Plus: coverage of spin-off Freshly Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland!

15 MAR 2023 · In this episode on The Minish Cap, the Butt Heads boys sound much more negative about the game then they may ultimately feel.
Dan Vandervort also guests once again to talk about how the 3DS Ambassador Program gave him access to a run of great Game Boy Advance games, one of which was of course this 2004 entry into the Legend of Zelda series.
