June 28th, 2023 Question Timestamps:
-------------------------------------------
1:24 - IT'S ACROSS THE SONICVERSE TIME!! Which version of Sonic would be the Miguel O'Hara of the Sonicverse and do you think Lego Sonic would be his best agent?
2:41 - Sega says you can introduce Classic characters in modern and vice versa, but the stipulation is that it would need to make sense and they prefer not everyone. Who do you pick and why? And Kyle can answer, too, since he secretly runs SEGA anyway.
6:12 - What if Dr Eggman, Surge and Kit, and Dr Starline was caught arrested and restrained from killing each other. as part of their sentence they are placed in mandatory group therapy with each other led by one doctor Frasier Crain. How well does it go? Do any of them have a breakthrough? Will they drive Frasier mad? and will there be any tossed salads and scrambled eggs?
8:42 - If Ian and Kyle were mobians, what species would you be?
*This question was most recently answered on the March 13th, 2023 episode (at **47:04**).*
9:10 - I’ve been curious about this for a while now, so I just wanted to ask Ian, did you have any particular idea on how to bring back Hyper Sonic in Frontiers? Or was it just a brief pitch that you threw in there? I think it would have been cool if the super emeralds somehow related back to the ancients!
10:50 - The Combine [(from Half-Life 2)] Invasion happens ahead of schedule. How ahead? Think 1960's. Only issue, the Combine have to deal with the collective stupidity of Team Fortress. How long do they last until their inevitable surrender? Can they survive the dreaded 2fort?
16:08 - For what feels like a century and it’s been incredibly frustrating tbh with you. I feel like you’re always looked at as being evil for wanting more sonamy in the franchise, but this is genuinely the thing that I really want to see more of, and because I’ve wanted it for so long, I have lost interest in other aspects of the franchise. I’m tired of always being unsatisfied with the sonamy that they give us; just once, I wish I was genuinely satisfied with it. Pls tell me what I can do to kindly persuade SEGA to give us an actual legitimate SonAmy meal.
18:34 - It was said that Eggman hasn't killed in a recent episode, but hasn't he already crossed that line with the original Diamond Cutters? Might have been through the Shadow Androids instead of his own hands, but he ordered it. They're as much his weapons as that gun he carries.
20:04 - As a child, I looked up to my grandfather because of all the great things he accomplished in his life. He was my hero, and I wanted to be a great scientist like him! But... did he really mean to destroy us?
20:35 - Tails, Amy, Rouge, Vector, Wave, Tangle (and any character of your choice), are given a contract by a mysterious Mr. Scramble-Vision to star in a reality television show of their choice or based off their identifying traits. However, they soon find out upon the lights-camera-action stage of their impending realisation of a mistake, that these shows are merely ploys for Eggman to test his new death-traps while broadcasting their potential demises to the world. Think of the Mettaton sequence from Undertale if you need a better mental image. In the end, what sort of shows would the cast have? How would they be able to continue the show in-character, while also surviving until the cameras stop rolling? Will Eggman get in trouble with the station's legal team if he doesn't pay them, like the contract said, Even if there IS NO concept of money? HOW WILL THEY ALL GET CANCELLED?! In fact, what would be vaguely parodied, when these shows appear on the picture box?
26:40 - It's a battle of the daddy issues, Scourge vs Proto Man. Can Blues nuke the radioactive rodent? or will Scourge make the missing brother stay missing?
29:03 - The new Diamond Cutters: Tangle, Whisper, and Lanolin plus Jewel the beetle are introduced to the leader of the Freedom Fighters, Princess Sally Acorn. What are each of their first impressions of her and how does that change after they get to know her a bit better?
31:55 - If you’ve ever seen the “I can fix them.” “I can make them worse/ruin them” shipping meme: forget about the shipping part, and fixing people is boring. In whatever what-if scenario the what-if gods have decreed that obviously is never gonna happen, how would Surge and Kit becoming friends with sonic and Tails make them worse, with their terrible influences? If the answer is “they wouldn’t, because sonic and tails are too good”, feel free to just make up something you think would be funny if you want to.
36:31 - So is Starline retaining all this information he's getting from different dimensions as he's going on his little isekai trip, and if so, does he attempt to use it in situations he's thrown into?
38:03 - Starline gets sent to our world as a marketable plushie. How would his isekai adventure go and how many times does he have to be game ended as a plush before he gets sent to a different world?
40:23 - I wanted to know if the JP versions of the games and contents of and within the games as well as the other languages/versions are all canon & applicable to Sonic’s worlds and cosmology unless explicitly stated otherwise?
41:23 - Who’s the better dancer, Sonic or Kirby?
42:34 - If Silver developed zoolepathy, would he be able to read the minds of his fellow anthropomorphic friends or would it just be limited to; flickies, pickys, rockys, rickys, pockys, tommys, beckys, peckys and the chicken one?
43:57 - Not sure if you can answer this, but as a big Scourge fan i really wanted to know. Were there plans for another Super Scourge appearance in Scourge's revenge arc?
45:19 - The Archie version of Bean the Dynamite has fallen into a cloning machine that is producing an infinite number of Bean clones! And now they’re invading the modern IDW Sonic universe! How does it go? How does everyone react to the army of crazy dynamite ducks/woodpeckers?!?
46:54 - Do you ever have moments where you realize you are in fact NOT Sonic The Hedgehog? Whether behaviorally or physically? Like for me it's when I make long term plans (instead of acting on the fly) or when I even try to run. My shins feel like SHIIIIIIEEIIieieiei..erhem..Really bad.
47:52 - In some of the recent interviews regarding Sonic Superstars, Iizuka has made some statements on how Superstars and Frontiers are unrelated with regards to the story. In the process of doing so, however, he made mention that Frontiers is a "different kind of timeline, different universe" from Superstars. This might be isolated to his choice of words during these interviews, maybe even a nothingburger due to translation process, but is this actually an accurate reflection on the status of the classic "series" as they call it right now? Will the franchise's direction be moving away from keeping everything classic contained in the past, and moreso towards separate timelines and dimensions along the lines of what came up during Forces' release?
49:23 - I recently learned that betta fish are actually pretty freaking violent! Apparently, they also go by the names Siamese Fighting Fish or Rumble Fish, and having them fight is a sport in Thailand. If two are placed in the same tank, they will start to fight eachother almost immediately, to the point that they will rip eachothers' scales off or even kill eachother. So, what if our sweet, orange sushi roll Coral was like that and how would it affect her position and dynamics with the other Meropis characters (Razor, Pearly, Undina, Echo, Striker, Puff, Angelica, etc.)? Note, Coral's alignment would still be good, she'd just be more aggressive and bloodthirsty. Also, all other characters remain unchanged from their canon selves. PS: Razor would be simping for her, calling it right now.
51:38 - Howdy a MegaMan question here: If you were to make a MegaMan X comic, could you ever see yourself including an X DiVE adaption into it? From the entire concept of ""the Deep Log"", crossovers with other Capcom titles, and encounters with Alt versions of chars we all know and love (like Iris - Another-, X-Kai, Gangster Sigma or even just the other MegaMen, including Battle Network and Star Force).... I'm curious to know how and to what extent you'd incorporate that into the Mega Man lore, if at all.

58:50 - Outtake 3
*Extend my what now??*
Imagine the poor deceased soul tortured by the knowledge that they got killed by someone who calls themselves "Eggman".
Truly, Black Doom is a merciful antagonist.
Egg is another way to say “creation”
3:42 I'd love to see silver in a classic scenario, like, i imagine he wouldn't even be redesigning, it would be just "Oh no i came back too far"
5:08 i think kyle is pretty cool ;-;
That Hyper Sonic idea sounded kinda cool. Wouldn't it be cool if they made it into something new? Maybe involving the cyber corruption... and an extremely difficult boss rush to unlock it? I'd love it.
I think classic Sticks is possible, the way she was introduced into the modern cast sort of had this "She was here all along" feel. Classic Infinite as just some random Jackal could also be a little fun
I like the idea of Classic Infinite being hidden in a crowd shot, long before he took up mercenary work.
Eggman's like Kiryu Kazama: he's never killed anyone!

I can't believe my dumb edit made it into the Bumblekast as a thumbnail 🥹
Dumb? No, I'm pretty sure it's genius. -Kyle
I almost died laughing at 38:57 because that was the unfortunate fate of my poor infinite plushy. Even my dogs found him pathetic 😂
That Combine TF2 question was gold.
Agreed xD
Would be fun to see a short comic strip or something based off that
TF platoon could combat the Combine soldiers.
However the 7-hour-war was before the combine had soldiers, it was all Synth units: think gunships, striders and Advisors.
9:01 Ian would be a Crocodile and Kyle would be a Bee. The Bumble King Duo!
"Fu....sion-HAAA!"
47:52 Thank you, the canon was just fixed, so I was dreading the possibility of a return to continuity and fanbase breaking problems Forces introduced by trying to make Classic a sperate Sonic.
What if Sega says this "we will let you write a relationship with two more characters but it has to be Orbot and Cubot."
Was not expecting Classic Glock Eggman😮
9:29 I just imagined that Ouranos Island would've been the Ancient name for Angel Island. After beating Supremo, Super Sonic would follow Sage, only to be blasted by the End to the Master Emerald altar in Hidden Palace. Instead of flying away, the Chaos Emeralds would repair and overlap with the Super Emeralds and BOOM, Hyper Sonic
Ian would be a Beaver and Kyle would be an Armadillo!
Eggman never takes a life, when actually does.
For Sonic and Kirby having the greatest dance battle of history, we ride on the Algorithm Quest!
I too would love to see Classic Zeti
i have a lot of reasons why i hope starline stays dead but the idea of him canonically going on an endless isekai adventure where he encounters increasingly more ridiculous scenarios and dies in increasingly more brutal ways is the biggest one
This thumbnail is fantastic
9:10 Interesting, I think that would been a way better end to the story honestly. One of my problems with Frontiers was the latter half wich seemed half-baked
Questions for the next bumblekast: Sonic and friends decide to celebrate grimace birthday by getting the grimace shake on day one. What happens to all of them.
How would Movie Sonic react to meeting Amy?
I know you said that game Sonics and Amys connection is like that because Sonic is so cool, but movie Sonic is more Inexperienced.
48:50 Oh so Superstar isn't a Mania sequel!
Just finished my 2nd play through of frontiers, love the music they added. My new favourite is frog forest and i found a great remix called frog metropolis...enjoy 😊🎶
GOD I would've loved that Hyper Sonic return... here's hoping the DLC rectifies it
What happens if Fang meets his version of Archie and Fleetway and what kind of dialogue will they have?
Mr. Ian we know swears exist in the Sonic world but why doesn’t someone like sonic swear I mean he did have that one line in shadow as well but still
And yes I know meta reason is kids franchise but in universe I would like to know
Paradox prism bring people back from dead
question on your next BumbleKast i know you probably get this a lot and i'm sorry for asking, but we would all like to know, who is that mysterious purple hair girl from tailstube ,is a scrapped character from frontiers or unleashed like some speculated or is she from an unannounced project?
i ask because you seem to know who she is as there was a few tweets of you acknowledging her, you don't have to get into too much detail but i think we deserve some sort of an answer even if it's simple
Question for next BumbleKast: I don't know if either of you have seen the show, but what do you think a Sonic version of Stranger Things would be like?
Ian! Surge is leak by Hardlight by accident to be in Sonic Forces Speed Battle later this year can't wait to play as her. Also Infinite is getting a costume skin it's Warlock Infinite. Also Infinite is gonna be in Sonic Dash it's weird he is a villain and he gonna be in the game. Yes I know we can play as Metal Sonic in Sonic Dash. I'm a very happy Infinite fan.
Bring back Classic Chaotix.
Puns🥳
@16:08 No one is looking at you evil for wanting SonAmy. Everyone looks at you evil for gatekeeping in preference for SonAmy. This means constantly demonizing Sally Acorn/SatAM/Archie and the fan bases because of the SonAlly ship simply existing in published media.
Y'all have gotten to the point that you'll cling to any contrived reasoning to criticize anything that threatens your preferred ship. Not all SatAM enjoyers are SonAlly shippers, so we find it really weird and disrespectful how you guys attack us for even mentioning Sally's name.
It's the needless gatekeeping that's giving you SonAmy enjoyers the bad rep, not the shipping itself. If SEGA had envisioned a similar dynamic between Sonic and Amy as SatAM/Archie did with Sally, they would've done that by now.
Shifting your anger at a different faction of the fan base instead of at the Sega suits themselves is what partly turns everyone off about Amy Rose.
