  • Berserker and Jez are the goats!

    I could listen to these dudes talk all day long. And not just about WoW. I would prefer they talk about WoW. But if they made a podcast about something else like Legos or Professional Wrestling or Squishmellow Pillows, I’m there too.

  • Loosen your gear and grab a beer!

    Top tier Wow podcast with a great host! Berserker gives you a warrior’s insight to the game in a fun, good-natured take with a sprinkling of rage! I’ve been a fan for years through the different seasons of the show. After every episode, I feel like I just spent time with an old friend conversing over one of our favorite past times. A gem of a show with one of the great people in game. Raising my banner high because it’s so good even this mage is a regular!

Q: What panel would you have liked to see that wasn't there?
The hosts express a desire for more direct, story-focused Starcraft content—story vibes, concept art, or even a brief gameplay teaser—to give a clearer sense of the Starcraft universe beyond the cinematic.
Episode 186: BlizzCon Rules (Pt. 1) - Tales from BlizzCon 2026 and World of Warcraft: Forever!
Q: Can you tell us about the coolest panel you went to that was not exclusively Warcraft related?
I didn't attend many panels, but the StarCraft II tournament with Simu Liu was a standout non-Warcraft event, and we also caught some Overwatch Arena action briefly at the end.
Episode 184: Back To Business

They note press access has been tightened; they anticipate limited presence and strategize around doing more with less access, while remaining appreciative of any invitations or opportunities that arise.

Q: How do you feel about the patch cadence and mini-patches vs. major patches?
One host admits to writing critiques of the cadence but acknowledges personal burnout and recognizes that many players burn out after intense content; they discuss the trade-off between frequent updates and staying engaged.

Q: What do you think about the Warcraft D&D crossover product?
Both hosts express enthusiasm, agreeing they will buy and likely play it, though scheduling when they'll actually dive in remains uncertain.
