  • 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!
