  • Great Dragonlord Review Podcast

    Can’t wait to see how these guys’ take on movie 28 in the franchise, that one’s a doozy! (Ok in seriousness, this podcast is great it covers a lot of very interesting literature in a very entertaining way with an eye for academic analysis without ever becoming dry. Good stuff!)
