Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: Weird but true Episode #8 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation I will be talking about some questions/brain twisters and weird facts about the world. These facts will make you laugh, will leave you puzzled, and make you question everything you know, hopefully at least. Segment 1: Intro Hello! So I have been wanting to do this episode for a while because I always have these facts in my back pocket and I like starting debates with the brain twisters because it spices life up! I always enjoy learning cool little pieces of trivia that maybe will help me win a game show some day, who knows Segment 2:Cool facts So these are some cool facts about the world that I have found over the course of my life and thought were really cool. I actually have a note on my phone where I put new ones whenever I find one. I also did a little research for this episode but a decent amount of these are facts that I have come upon randomly. Scotland's national animal is unicorn Australia is wider than the moon - moon is 2,113 miles wide and australia is 2,485 miles wide The eiffel tower gets taller in the summer because the iron heats up and thermal expansion occurs making it 6 inches taller when it is hot Human teeth are the only part of the body that cannot heal themselves Tigers have striped skin, not just striped fur An 11 year old accidentally invented ice pops Warm water increases dopamine so we are more creative in the shower so if you’re struggling with a problem that involves thinking outside the box, take a hot shower Supermarket apples can be a year old! Wasabi paste is often actually horseradish instead of real wasabi because wasabi is expensive People used to say prunes when taking pictures - how did that change to cheese? Competitive art used to be an olympic event Cat pee glows under black light - ew but cool! J-lo is the reason we have google images in the search engine - so many people wanted to see pics of her 2000 grammys green dress that google added the feature British military tanks can make tea A blue whales heartbeat can be detected from up to 2 miles away Easter island heads also have bodies - what the heck happened to them? Ketchup used to be sold as medicine Humans are the only animals that blush Humans have tongue prints The blob of toothpaste on your toothpaste has a name - a nurdle Hawaii gets 3 feet closer to alaska each year - its on a tectonic plate that shifts closer to the main land every day 293 ways to make change for a dollar A lot of common materials are radioactive - bananas, potatoes, spinach, Brazil nuts, oranges, and granite countertops Animals can be allergic to humans - like we are allergic to cats and dogs The “human” body is 56% bacteria and other non-human organisms Lego bricks withstand compression better than concrete - applause effect A chicken once lived an entire year without a head One in 18 people have a 3rd nipple The concept “die of laughter” is actually possible, intense laughter can cause suffocation and/or a heart attack Most toilet paper sold for home use in france is PINK Segment 3: Questions/brain twisters Ok ok, I have always found that questions or things that make your brain twist are really fun to think about and they can often cause some debates which are always super fun. So here are some questions that I have asked or been asked recently. Drive in a parkway and park in a driveway - car sound effect Orange, color or fruit first? Chicken or egg - rooster sound effect We always think that supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (34 letters) is the longest word in the English language but really, pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis(45 letters) is. It is a word that refers to a lung disease contracted by inhaling fine silica particles. - crowd clapping effect Is water wet? Are shorts a type of pants? If soap falls on the floor, is the soap dirty or the floor clean? Doors or wheels? My next episode may take a while to come out because the semester is ending so my class where I am making these episodes will be over and so it will take me a bit to get back into the routine of it. Be sure to stick around though! I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun! This is Hyperfixation Nation, hosted by Blake, goodbye y’all!

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: Keeper of the Lost cities Episode #6 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation I will be discussing the book series Keeper of the Lost Cities. I will cover why I love the series, my thoughts on the morals of the 3 main groups of people, and Team FosterKeefe vs Fitzphie. Segment 1: Introduction to the topic I have been reading this series since I was about 8-9 years old and it has kept me hooked ever since. Keeper of the Lost cities is a fantasy book series that has some romantic drama - but it is not the main plot point, it has relatable characters, and it has a decent amount of representation. If you enjoyed Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan and Harry Potter by JK Rowling, you will probably like KOTLC. I have loved these books for so long that one could say that it is just a love and not a hyperfixation but every time I read one, I cannot stop, I just keep reading and reading and reading. My interest levels may go up and down but I still adore the series and will talk about it with anyone at any time. I love so many aspects of it and that is what I will be getting into next! ALSO SPOILER ALERT. I will be talking about everything that has happened in published books so far. Segment 2: My love for it - why? The villains aren’t just villains, you can see that they are human and they aren’t really ALL bad The good guys aren’t all good either- they have done things wrong and they have mixed history with their actions also while the characters are fighting bad guys and have magic abilities and such, you can still tell that they are just teens also The love web - it isn’t just a triangle Segment 3: Morals of both teams Neverseen Bad guys Lady gisela doing everything for her son - in a very twisted way They want to accomplish the same thing as the black swan but have different methods Black Swan good guys used to be a step ahead and now doesn’t know anything more than the kids keeping secrets - good or bad? the genetic stuff they did to Sophie Council sometimes good sometimes bad just trying to maintain an image want what is best for the elves lost secrets Segment 4: Sokeef vs. soFitz SoKeefe FOREVER fits was great but he has anger issues Sophie trusts Keefe with everything and has always had a special bond with him alvar messed Fitz up Keefe did bad things with Sophie’s interests at heart - trying to protect her Fitz did bad things without even thinking about Sophie’s feelings Fitz has golden boy issues and unmatchable issues Next episode will be about weird but true facts that made my mind spin and I hope will do the same for you! I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun! This is Hyperfixation Nation, hosted by Blake, goodbye y’all!

All About Hamilton: The Musical 23:15

23:15

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: All About Hamilton: The Musical Episode #5 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation the Podcast, I will talk about the musical Hamilton and how it broke all Broadway standards. I will cover how it is different from every other Broadway musical, where it was historically accurate vs. when an artistic license was taken, and my opinion on some of the characters' decisions. Segment 1: Introduction to the topic So we’ve got the music, the actors, and the politics in the show that are different from most Broadway musicals previously. We’ve got the creative license that Lin Manuel Miranda took because it made the story more interesting, it rhymed, or it was just easier to put in the show. And we’ve got the slightly controversial decisions of the characters like Burr shooting Hamilton and Washington serving the amount of time he did. Segment 2: How Hamilton is different from previous Broadway musicals! Music Rap Hip-hop R&B Soul Traditional show tunes Black and brown actors were on stage but the story doesn’t depict any slaves Lin-Manuel Miranda, the person who wrote the music, is Puerto Rican and wanted to incorporate the feeling of being sidelined into the music and Alexander Hamilton's character but also wanted to go against the white-washing of history. There is a musical with an all-white cast that is a show about a similar time that portrays the story in a much different and could be called racist, way. Having people of color play white historical figures flips the tradition of white people in blackface being on stage. It showcases the good and bad things that these founding fathers did Sally Hemmings for example Say no to this The relationship between Angelica and Hamilton The politics/political stand that this musical represents Laurens especially being very for an all-black military force Black actors playing the all-white Founding Fathers The layers of the aspects, “meta” The depiction of how society appropriates minority cultures The message is there but it is not the main point of the musical The song Wait For It and how it shows the pain when minorities are told to wait their turn They RHYMES BRO - and the music overall Socrates - mediocrities Manumission - abolition - ammunition Panicky - anarchy (with a French accent of course) Matching the age of the character to the style they sing in - jazz-ish for Jefferson and more hip-hop for younger characters Using the changes in song style of the characters to demonstrate how they have changed Burr starts with a sort of gospel-type, a choir-backed song in the first act and then has a song called The Room Where It Happens that is upbeat, more hip-hop, inspiring, and loud, in a political sense. This song shows that Burr has stopped waiting but also shows political exclusion and gaps in history Very little spoken dialogue - almost operatic style Segment 3: Accuracy vs artistic license Burn I wonder if this song was written because they did not have much about Eliza’s reaction to Hamilton cheating Historically it is a stretch in many places Burr was not asked to write the Federalist Papers Angelica was already married when she met Hamilton but Miranda said her being single was better for the plot She also had a brother which invalidates the plot of the song ‘Satisfied’ More accurate than most creative biographical works Changing cabinet battles into rap battles exposes some of the instability in the Washington administration Hamilton did not punch the bursar (mentioned in the song “Aaron Burr, Sir”) and then drop out of college and meet his friends Many factors like Lafayette not arriving from France at that time and the British controlling New York earlier than Hamilton could have had a chance to get there Hamilton is portrayed as a very loud person when it comes to his opinions on slavery but while in real life he disagreed with slavery more than others, he had slaves and did not speak out against it. The Schuyler sisters were not feminists They were educated but not progressive While John Adams and Hamilton did not get along, Hamilton was not fired by him - he resigned during Washington's admin The real Jefferson was the opposite of the loud, eccentric character played by Daveed Digs Segment 4: My opinions on some decisions that the characters made Say no to this Hamilton being shot Burr’s character development/changes “Talk less, smile more” The duel where Phillip died Duels in general Eliza forgiving Hamilton Should she have done this? The Reynolds pamphlet Washington resigning after 2 terms Earlier? Later? I got a lot of my information from an article called “Why Hamilton is making musical history” on the website called The Guardian and an article on the World Treasures website called “Hamilton The Musical Five Truths and Five Lies” that you should check out if you want more information. I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun! This is Hyperfixation Nation, hosted by Blake, goodbye y’all! Link to the article: https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2016/nov/05/why-hamilton-is-making-musical-history This article goes over some truths and falsities in the musical: https://worldtreasures.org/blog/hamilton-the-musical-five-truths-and-five-lies#:~:text=False%3A%20In%20the%20musical%2C%20 Hamilton,narrative%20is%20not%20 historically%20 accurate .

All about how doggos help human health! 19:30

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: The Impact of Dogs on Human Health Episode #3 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation the Podcast we discuss the impact that dogs have on human health. I will cover the impact on mental health and physical health, and the science behind it. Segment 1: Introduction of impacts of doggos! First a quick overview, one person can have different experiences with different hyperfixations (like me), dogs are absolutely amazing and cute and they are scientifically proven to help human health, both physical and mental. The main reason for all of this is because serotonin stabilizes moods, helps with digestion and motivation, and social connections. There are other chemicals that help but serotonin has the biggest impact. Segment 2: My journey with this hyperfixation and how I learned this information Ok so I learned all of this information because last year for school we had to choose a researchable topic to write a 10 page paper and do a presentation on and I absolutely love these cute little puppers, and the not so little cute puppers, so I chose this as my topic. As you can imagine, I learned a lot about it and I thought this information was really interesting so I wanted to share. This hyperfixation was different from all of my other hyperfixations because I was stressed to complete it since it was a school project. I know that it is a hyperfixation because before I did this project, I wrote many CER’s (Claim evidence reasoning science papers) and filled up notebooks to try and convince my parents to get me a dog. I would go on walks with my parents just so that I could talk to them about dogs and they couldn’t leave (they didn’t know this was the motivation lol). The anxiety of a due date The pressure of other people in my class being farther along The hours of doing homework (looking for cute pictures of doggos for my poster board and researching) The happy chemicals I got from doing this battling the anxiety of starting Segment 3: The impact on human mental health of dogs Regular pet dogs Serotonin Sleep Anxiety/depression/illnesses caused by lowered serotonin Adhd Mood stabilization Therapy dogs Same effects as regular pet dogs plus more Oxytocin (trusting chemical) Great for people with physical impairments - dog w 3 legs, human w 3 limbs Training Hospital therapy dogs training vs. school training How training helps ESA dogs All ESA have no training but they get special privileges You need a doctor to sign a note saying one would be helpful to your mental state Allowed on planes and in apartments that would usually not allow pets Not allowed in hotels often (unless they are all pet friendly) Usually grocery stores don’t allow them if they don’t allow pets Service dogs 18-24 months of training Most obedient of the trained dogs Used for disabilities that cause a physical change (this is an example but there are more situations where they help) Someone with PTSD that has nightmares and/or panic attacks from certain situations Dogs can sense a nightmare and wake up the human Dogs can smell the changes before a panic attack People with an anxiety disorder can get help from a dog Can sense teh anxiety attack/panic attack before it gets too bad Can force human to pet them Allowed everywhere a human is because of the ADA (american disability act) If someone has a medical reason (bad allergies for example), they can let the owner know before an event (like if someone calls an uber) Especially fit for their human Human is taught how to handle the dog with positive reinforcement instead of punishment The dog gets further training to make sure they fit the needs of the human perfectly Segment 4: The impact of dogs on human physical health Service dogs (seeing eye, seizure alert, gluten alert, etc) Keep people safe Someone who is blind Seeing eye dog Someone who has celiac disease (usually kids in schools that are extremely sensitive) Someone who struggles from seizures Lay down to stop someone from hurting themselves as much Alert when they sense one coming Normal doggos Sleep - melatonin Digestion Exercise Attaches the good feeling of being with your dog to the event of exercising Conversation starter Seeing other people is good for human overall health Segment 5: Outro Now to sum it all up! Mental health Serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin Stabilizes mood Therapy dogs keep people calm in stressful situations (hospital or school) Service dogs lessen the severity and frequency of anxiety/panic attacks Physical health Exercise Sleep Digestion Conversation starter and being around people increases the overall health of humans Next episode is me interviewing one of my friends about her hyperfixations and experiences so stick around for more points of view about hyperfixations! Most of the information I got was from articles inside the Gale Opposing Viewpoints database so if you want to read some of those, visiting that website will provide more information. I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun! This is Hyperfixation Nation hosted by Blake, goodbye y’all!

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – My experience, stable quests, and the depths 19:17

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 101 Episode #2 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation the Podcast we discuss: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the side quests/adventures (the ones related to stables), and exploring the depths. In addition to talking about some of the aspects of Zelda, I will be explaining what it was like for me while I am in this hyperfixation. Segment 1: Introduction to Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 101 First, a quick overview of the information being talked about this episode. I will talk about the stable quests - the ones involving Zelda and the newspaper. Next, I will let you know some tips and tricks about exploring the depths. There will be some spoilers but I will say the quest I am covering beforehand so if you do not want to hear a spoiler, you can skip ahead. I have beat the game (meaning completed the main quest all the way and fought the Demon King) so I have more hearts and weapons then I did when I was fighting those bosses but I will give information for people who were around the same place I was when fighting those bosses. Segment 2: What it was like for me I wanted to explain a bit about my journey through this hyperfixation because while this podcast will be me talking about all of mine, it is also important to talk about the experience I had while learning all these things. Ups and downs of interests Restarting the game Watching my dad play vs. me playing Researching quests ahead of time Segment 3: The side adventures (Potencial Princess Sightings) Ok ok quick overview of this segment before I get into it. I will be talking about the newspaper quests that you get from visiting the Lucky Clover Gazette house in the Hebra region, the great fairy quests, and the quests you get after you have done the Lucky Clove Gazette quests and where to find these places. Potential princess sightings (newspaper quests) Snowfield stable - Zelda’s Golden horse You need to go north towards an Ice Gleeok. Do not fight this unless you want a 3-headed dragon blasting ice at you and a fight of your life. Instead, you can go around the area where the Gleeok is and look for a golden glowing horse. You need to do some soothing when you catch it so be prepared for that. Make sure you crouch and are quite like you would with any other horse. After it is caught, ride it back to the stable and the quest will be done. You get to keep the horse if you want to register it at the stable. Gerudo Canyon Stable - The Blocked Well You have to clear the well right next to the stable and defeat the monsters Highland stable - An Eerie Voice This one scares Penn but there isn’t any monster to fight involved in the quest. You have to wait until night and then go with Penn to the field where the voice is. It will lead you to a well, jump in and talk to the person you see when you get there. Foothill Stable - For our princess! You have to defeat a cave of monsters in just your underwear I did not find this one very difficult but I also did this one later in the game so I had a decent amount of heart containers Outskirt stable - The Beckoning Woman For this one, there is a woman calling out that Penn tells you about and you have to follow her from place to place. She turns into a Yiga so beware. The big thing with defeating Yiga is looking for a reddish-orangish glow for where they are teleporting to and then being there to hit them a couple times Tabantha Bridge Stable - White goats gone missing This quest talks about goats who were fed a meal that Zelda invented and the goats ran away. To find them, look for hylian pine cones and follow the trail to a small place nearby. You can use your Ultrahand ability to make the pinecones glow since they can be hard to spot in the grass.Once you get there a cutscene will trigger and Penn will take care of the rest. Dueling peaks Stable - Princess Zelda Kidnapped?! Penn is more difficult to find for this one. He is all the way at the top of the table, on the nose of the horse/dragon thing with smoke coming out of its nose. After speaking with Penn, you will hear that Yiga has kidnapped Zelda. If you go to the south peak of the dueling peaks, you will see a crater with Zelda trapped in a cage. Once you get close, you will see that she transforms into Yiga Clan peeps and once you fight the Yiga, you have completed the quest. Wetland Stable - The Missing Farm Tools This one involves a little sailing. You will be directed by Penn to talk to someone on the dock near the stable. After doing this, you will sail him down to an island with a flower bed and then try to go forward, triggering a cutscene. Riverside Stable - Gourmets Gone Missing This one involves a little cooking. You talk to Penn and he asks you to talk to someone else. This person is worried because a team of cooks hasn’t arrived yet. If you follow the path in the direction she points you, you will soon see a little camp of people. Interact with them to figure out what you need to do (hint you need raw meat and rice - both can be found nearby to the site) South Akkala Stable - All-clucking Cucco For this quest, you have to do a series of mini challenges for a talking Cucco (essentially a chicken) that is in a tree. This Cucco also turns into Yiga Clan peeps but after you defeat the 3 of them, the quest is finished. New Serene Stable - The Beast and the Princess For this one, I found it by accident actually. There is a piece of forest near the stable with these beasts that supposedly eat luminous stones and poop out gems. Once you talk to the person you find next to a little structure, Penn comes flying in and talks about it with you. Woodland Stable - Serenade to a great fairy (the beginning of the great fairy quests) You have to help Maestro and his violin player get to the great fairy bud (a colorful glowing bud with purple steam coming out of it near the stable) on their wagon. You need enough pony points for a towing harness to complete this quest. Segment 4: Exploring the gloom covered depths - tips and tricks Barginer statues and poes - Gloom resistant clothes Miners outfit Sundelions Lightroots AMAZING Safe havens Healing spots Zonai devices Climb trees and paragliding Every shrine has a lightroot directly beneath it - you can use this to find lightroots so you can see or to find shrines after you have found a lightroot Fighting gloom wretched enemies Brightbloom seeds Travel medallions and hot springs The importance of pins and stamps underground Falling from chasams directly onto the ground kills you. Don’t do it. Open your paraglider. Learn from my mistakes. Try to go to a chasm with a shrine nearby for as many as possible so you can see around before exploring Yiga Statues and mines Zonaite - every monster you kill drops this in the depths The bosses from the temples appear in certain spots in the depths Farosh, Dinrall, and Naydra (dragons) go into the depths as part of their route Gloom spawn BEWARE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SHORT WALL NEARBY, LEAVE They can’t climb so shooting arrows (with bomb flowers attached) is the safest way to kill them but after you kill all of the hands at once, phantom gannon appears and you have to fight him. The item drops from them both are really good but unless you are extremely confident in your fighting skills and are not a beginner - do not fight them. Just teleport away. Running isn’t fast enough so you need to either climb or teleport STAMP THE PLACE WHERE YOU RAN INTO THEM FOR FUTURE KNOWLEDGE They can sneak up on you but the music and look of the screen changes - ominous monster music and a purple pink gloom fog-like stuff appears before they snatch you and kill you. Segment 5: Outro Now to sum it all up! The newspaper quests are more creative and may seem stupid but are worth it for the money and froggy armor The depths are dangerous but doing things like activating lightroots and building machines to traverse the gloom make it easier Next episode I will talk about the benefits to human health that having a dog around provides you! It will be interesting and if there is anyone who wants a dog but isn’t sure about it or wants to convince their parents, Episode 3 is the episode for you. Also if you absolutely love dogs even if you don’t want one or already have one or just like science, you will enjoy the next episode. I hope to see you there! I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun! This is Hyperfixation Nation hosted by Blake, goodbye y’all!

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – Boss Battles 14:28

14:28

Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network Show Name: Hyperfixation Nation Episode Title: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 101 Episode #2 You are listening to Hyperfixation Nation, the podcast with your host Blake. In this episode of Hyperfixation Nation the Podcast we discuss: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, including The big bad boss battles and their difficulty, The side quests/adventures (mainly the ones related to shrines and stables), and exploring the depths. Segment 1: Introduction to Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 101 First, a quick overview of the information being talked about this episode. I will be going into depth about the 4 boss battles at the 4 temples. There is more information to be shared about these, and other boss battles but I don’t want to spoil too much. There will be some spoilers but I will say the battle I am covering beforehand so if you do not want to hear a spoiler, you can skip ahead. This episode does not have information about the main quest that you do not know from the beginning except for a how-to guide for defeating the temple bosses. I have beat the game (meaning completed the main quest all the way and fought the Demon King) so I have more hearts and weapons then I did when I was fighting those bosses but I will give information for people who were around the same place I was when fighting those bosses. Segment 2: The big bad boss battles and their difficulties What order you should do them in Colgera - Rito regional phenomena boss Sum of the battle You are in the air and you need to shoot its 3 weak points. You have to do it twice (all three for half health then all three again for full defeat) It shakes spikes at you that reveal its weak points Watch out for tornados (especially in the second half) - Tulin’s gusts are good for avoiding them ARROWS. YOU NEED ARROWS. All in the air but stamina refills for you whenever you open your paraglider Have Kesse/Aerocuda eyeballs Use Tulin well Have basic refill-your-hearts food but no special food needed Getting the dive mobility outfit will help but it is not necessary (I fought it without it but when I went against it in the depths I had it and it was useful but you do not need it to win) You can shoot the weak points from the bottom but that has always been a waste of arrows for me because it heals whenever it shakes it’s spikes off Mucktorok - Zora regional phenomena boss Sum of the battle There is sludge everywhere Mucktorok is swimming in it and you need to hit him with a water blast (from sidon or not doesn’t matter. Sidon’s blast is more powerful than opal attached to a weapon) Once you un-sludge it, you go and hit it with your strongest weapon Repeat this process until half health then it gets more difficult because he moves around after you un-sludge him instead of staying in place Sidon’s waterwall is extremely helpful because Mucktorok blasts you with sludge. Splash fruit are amazing because it clears sludge on the battlefield that slows you down Don’t waste arrows, just throw them Movement speed up food is good because sludge slows you down Have enough food to fill up the amount of heart containers you have (should be at LEAST 5) 3 times (the more hearts you have, the less food you need) Arrows can be useful for this battle but they are not a necessity Marbled Gohma - Goron regional phenomena boss Looks like a crab and spider had a rock baby. The shape made me laugh Bomb flowers are extremely useful for this battle I didn’t lose that much health but it is never bad to have extra food Flame resistant is necessary because the temple is in the depths on a pool of lava Before doing anything with the temple in the depths, get the lightroot nearby. You need to be able to see. If you don’t buy flame resistant stuff, have plenty of food that can do that You want to use the Sage of Fire (I call him rocky rolly polly) to know down the drabs legs then go in with a strong weapon It does climb on the walls after half health so bomb flowers work for this part but you might be able to angle rocky rolly polly so he goes up the wall Queen Gibdo - Gerudo regional phenomena boss Beware you do the first half of the fight before entering the temple You need arrows to use Riju’s power (she is the sage of lightning and has a really cool ability) Make sure to destroy the gibdo nests in the 4 corners so you only have to fight 1 giant gibdo instead of the Queen and all of its subjects After destroying a hive, a giant beam of light appears. When you are in this light, the gibdos can’t reach you and they turn white. You can use this to destroy the other hives without being attacked by small gibdos The biggest thing is to watch out for her sand and use Riju’s power but it takes a bit for her to build up power so keep that in mind If you don’t want to/can’t in that moment then bomb flowers, firefruit, and shock fruit work when attached to a arrow Once the Queen Gibdo is white, go in with your strongest weapon and smash her! Segment 3: Outro I have so much to talk about involving Zelda:Tears of the Kingdom that I will be doing an Episode 2 Continued so make sure to listen to that to hear about different parts of the game. Now to sum part 1 of episode 2 up! Arrows and bomb flowers are extremely important for all battles Fighting these boses is 100% worth your time Using the sages powers help a lot with the battles, so don’t forget about them and make sure to put the little bit of extra energy to track them down on the battlefield because they like to try and help (even though they aren’t often successful I hope you enjoyed the episode, learned something new, and had fun!
