  • Branching out!

    Rly happy to see these two branching out into a broader range of topics from Ad-Ric, always love to hear more of this goofy-yet-informative kind of podcast. Would be funny if bricky appeared in the walls and gradually became a bigger part of the pod.

  • DK and company are back babyyyyy!

    Been listening to Ad-Ric for a while so had to check this out. It does not disappoint. Dk's goofy enthusiasm and Kirioth's ability to read bonkers lore with a deadpan delivery are great. Can't wait for more eps!
