  • SO good!!

    If Lotus had a podcast of just hours of Lotus’ opinions on things, I’d be a subscriber for life! Between the sound of his voice and just his general demeanor, I’d listen to him talk about literally anything.

    But why should you listen to this one? It’s the best elder scrolls podcast out there, hands down. Everything elder scrolls lore, insights, laughs, and so much more. So why are you still reading this?

    Ps R0b0ts does an excellent job as the cohost (can’t forget you, Tom)! I just needed to fa... more

  • A great way to catch up on the lore and make a night at work go by fast!

    Personally bounce back and forth between Elder Scrolls and Fallout along with Assetto Corsa Competizione and other racing games so I can’t always keep up with the lore nor have time to hunt down the in game info my self (I.E. the fun way of discovering the lore) the elder scrolls and fallout podcasts have not only been a great way to catch up on the story so far but makes my work night (the 3rd shift factory life) go by that much quicker. Love the shows, always looking forward to that notificati... more
