  • Keeping up with FFXIV

    A good way to keep up with the latest FFXIV News and happenings.

    I am an Audio only listener mostly Apple podcast and only wish it was updated more frequently.

    Have a good one

  • I wish episodes were posted more frequently

    Content is fun, the hosts are entertaining and I really enjoy their recaps, lore discussions, and reviews. This show is great for keeping up with the world of Eorzea when you can’t actively play. Unfortunately episodes of this show seem to trail behind their YouTube uploads by a month or longer, meaning you have to follow them somewhere else if you want to hear discussions relevant to current content.

  • Please post more frequently

    The actual content is great and the hosts are very well informed and knowledgeable about the game. The conversations are fun and laid back. The problem, at least in the iTunes podcast feed is they sit on 5 or 6+ episodes and just release them once a day, long after any time sensitive or relevant information has long passed. The release schedule is very inconsistent.

  • Episode 299 re Third party tools

    Good podcast but these guys talking about third party tools sound like they’ve never used third party tools before :/

  • Main host has verbal ticks

    Constantly smacking his lips and saying «uuhhhhh».

    The thick Scandinavian accent, and constant cursing is also unpleasant.

    Deeply uncomfortable, and all the «Uhhhmmm» bookend empty chatter.

    I wish he would allow the others to talk.
