Before the Holidays, we're giving you a full day of content to relax, unwind, and help a great cause! UPDATED 12/10 - ALL PARTS UPLOADED

It's time again for the Nintendo World Report live podcast in support of Child's Play. This year we've set taller goals, have a more ambitious schedule, and are planning more twists than ever before. This all-day marathon serves one purpose: to help kids in pediatric hospitals by providing them the toys and games we all enjoy. We hope you can join us for the best thing NWR does all year.

We have all 14 hours of the show, and we will be releasing them throughout the week, in four, three hour, chunks. If you don't subscribe to Radio Free Nintendo, you should, but if you did you would automatically get each episode delivered to the player of your choice.

Part One (MP3) (Enhanced AAC) - Introduction and Live Now Playing, RFN and the Third Dimension, The Future of the Nindies, Amiibo SuperChargers

Part Two (MP3) (Enhanced AAC) - J&J Dream Factory LLC, Games We Love to Hate, A Different Kind of Sonic Adventure

Part Three (MP3) (Enhanced AAC) - LIVE! Radio Trivia Non-Podcast Edition!, Famicast Live with John Davis and Cheesemeister, Connectivity: Mario Sunshine Retrospective

Part Four (MP3) (Enhanced AAC) - NNR: The Future of Nintendo, NFR: Garage Banding, Dinosaur Chat, RFN Hot Takes

This is our sixth time doing this, but if you never got to see one yourself you can go check out the shows from years past: 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014

Amount does not include $1,970.13 being matched by Nintendo of America! Thanks for their support

HOW: Magic of the Internet

Here at Nintendo World Report, we've long been supporters of Child's Play, the fantastic charity that provides toys and games to hospitalized kids. If you're not familiar with Child's Play, check out the official website and listen to Jonny's RFN Special interview with Mike Krahulik, co-founder of the charity (and Penny Arcade), way back in 2007. So, when our old friend Karl Castaneda brought us an idea for doing a special, live-streaming podcast to support Child's Play, we got excited. Not only can we do things live that don't make sense in a recorded show, like real-time listener interaction, but the lack of editing means there are fewer constraints on how long the show can run. Then we thought... why not do it telethon-style, all day long? It's been a great success so far, and this year we're hoping to raise more money than ever for this excellent charity!

***If you are new to NWR podcasts, please be advised that the show contains explicit language . We're doin' it for the kids, but the show itself is for grown-ups.***
