Michs is getting his Masters Degree in Theology at Harvard University, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to talk about Final Fantasy X and the Yevon religion that rules Spira. No, we are not talking about Final Fantasy X-2. Maybe one day... In the mean time, enjoy this discussion we had. It touches on a variety of topics, ranging from Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov, to the Bible, to politics and modern monetary policy. I hope you enjoy it!

Yevon in Spira | Final Fantasy X Discussion on Religion

Journey is such an incredible game. It's an experience that will stick with you for years. The story for Journey is a distillation of the hero's journey, and presents it in a most beautiful and compelling way. Also, I hope you all love Dante's Comedia because we'll be diving into that a fair bit. Enjoy the discussion!

UnRavel The Past w/  @maxderrat  | Planescape Torment Analysis (Ep.4)

Slake is such a dope word. It sounds so intense. This game gives us such an endless stream of things to talk about. We hit the lower ward and the clerks ward here. Don't forget, the world is founded on belief. Use it well!
