This week's episode is about Nevarra, a city-state turned nation in central Thedas and home to the Mourn Watch. Mostly untouched by Dragon Age's extended media, we dig into the history, culture, and unique beliefs of the home to dragon hunters and necromancy.

I promise, we're building to something here.

Remember last episode when we said it would be ludicrous to do an episode on a fantasy calendar?

Here's our episode on Dragon Age's Chantry calendar system.

We talk about how the ages are decided, discuss the merits of a year zero, and mention some important events in those 850+ years. Will those dates be incredibly relevant to our next two episodes? Who could say, but there's at least two dates mentioned that will be tangentially important, so really it's all worth it.

Hey there, Phil here. I recently published a new video on our Youtube channel about how I played Starfield wrong. Since I end up posting videos so rarely (and I think they work just as well as audio), I'm publishing them to our main feed here. Let me know what you think!

If you thought last week's episode about blue lyrium got weird and wild, wait 'til you check out the red stuff! That's right, today we're talking about Dragon Age's other glowing colored rock: Red Lyrium!

Listen to this episode, where in we answer such profound questions as why red?, What it do?, it bad?, and if a person in a dark alley were to offer me some of that "good red" should you take some?

This episode does NOT feature discussion of anything in Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Phil has Dragon Age fever and also likes rocks. So, let's spend the better part of an hour talking about rocks, metal, and...fantasy drugs? Listen, this started out as a fun chat about a cool glowing rock and descended a bit into a massive continent-spanning church having an economic and military stranglehold on a particular miracle substance.

That's probably fine, right?

It's been a week, huh? We're taking a mental health break, but podcasts never stop! So, instead of our usual programming, we present a supercut of our bright spot segment, featuring six months of things that made us happy.

Hopefully this episode makes you happy too. We'll see you next week when we dig into magical metals that are also drugs, but for this week, let's just be happy for an hour and a half. ❤️

For our first ever spook-tacular episode, we dig into the Falador Massacre, the closest we'll ever get to True Crime. Logan regales the tale of Durial321, an opportunist mass murderer who, after leaving a large house party, turns his Abyssal Whip onto the masses.

Sit back in your comfy chair, pop open up a pumpkin beer, and dig your hands into a bowl of fun-sized Snickers. This one is a trip.

Today's episode goes roots-deep on one particular twisted bush near the farming guild in Old School RuneScape! That's right, we're about server rollbacks. There's charts, there's economics, there's discussion of XP to GP ratios, and yes, we talk about how two particular items brought the economy to its knees.
