Episode #405 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth kick off the beginning of a new year by going all the way back to the very beginning itself.
No, this has nothing to do with the SEGA Genesis. Instead, we ring in 2026 by exploring the creation story of Genesis, as well as various other creation myths and ideas stemming from things like the Garden of Eden and Adam & Eve.

Of course, when I saw the name of this episode, I thought it was about Genesis. However, this was a very fresh take on a show, and I enjoyed the feel of this music. You know this type of music gets me going, but since I have a half day today, this episode was perfect for a Friday. Thanks, gentlemen.
