  • Thanks guys

    Been listening for 3 years now and it’s been great! Unfortunately I have to give you 3 stars because I subscribed for Warcraft lore. Maybe I’m alone, but I couldn’t care less about comics, Warhammer or cyberpunk. Hopefully you re-evaluate what your core audience cares about.

  • Consistently entertaining and surprising

    I’ve been listening to the podcast for about 8 years now and I must say it’s one of my favourite to tune into.

This podcast shines as one of the few bright examples of how to produce a game related lore podcast, the hosts not only recount what h... more

  • Nerd Alert!!!

    This is like sitting around with your nerdiest friends and talking about Warcraft lore. I love it. None of my friends are really into lore so this is a great way to fill that gap. Find a topic of interest in the backlogs or be like me, start at the first and work through all of them. Their knowledge isn’t perfect but it’s great for us lore nerds. Thank you for doing this.
