Working as a developer, i often would listen to the podcast while commuting, and now 10 years later or so, i can reminisce of those days walking through the park after work listening to SWTOR Escape Podcast, Ootini Cast, SOTOR podcast, and as many as i could queue up without piquing the suspicion of my bosses. So many good memories, and great to see now that you are expanding you... more

  • Look forward to this podcast every week

    This podcast gets you involved in all aspects of Star Wars the old republic. The way they describe the game and the AIE community got me to join the guild.

    All thanks to Max and Sema!
