"Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" C1E54: "Do the Mario!"

Today’s broadcast is C1E54 for Theme Thursday, November 19th, 2020. Today’s theme is one of the most special we've ever had on the show – a celebration of 35 years of the most famous, iconic, and ubiquitous franchise in all of video game history – Super Mario Bros. To commemorate the occasion, we present you with a 35-track collection of music from Mario and extended universe games – including what is undoubtedly the most famous piece of video game music ever to be written, a piece that after nearly 4yrs and 2000 tracks, we have up til now never featured before. The name of today's celebration: "Do the Mario".
