Don't Give Up Skeleton: A Dark Souls and Bloodborne Podcast

Welcome back Skeletons! This week's guest is Sayem, a games writer, Souls fan, and an extremely great dude who has been playing the Souls games since they came out. We sat down to talk about his history with the series, how the games have changed over the years, how the games have changed him, and of course, his meeting with Miyazaki (yes, that Miyazaki) for an interview before Dark Souls 3 was released. Enjoy the episode everyone!

Hello! This week's guest is Mimi, a newcomer to the Souls series. She picked up Bloodborne back in December and has become a huge fan. We talk about how Bloodborne inspires love of its characters, her love for Gherman, and yes, a bit of Bald Gascoigne. Enjoy!

PS: After the ep was recorded, I found out Mimi does a little bit of singing in her spare time. So stay tuned after the outtro music plays for her take on a Twilight Princess track.

Hi everyone! This week's guest is my friend Eric, who I met via the Duckfeed.TV network. Eric is a great dude that has a hangup about spiders, but that didn't stop him from getting heavily into the Souls series. I've know Eric on the internet for awhile, so it was nice to get a chance to talk to him. I think you're going to enjoy getting to know him as well.

Hey everyone! Jeremy here with another episode of DGUS for your listening pleasure. This week's guest is Zygi, a guy who started with Demon's Souls way back in 2010, but didn't finish the game until almost three years later. Don't worry, he played a bunch of Souls games in between though. Enjoy the episode everyone.

This week's guest is Rolling Ewok, a very fun Souls and Bloodborne fan that I had a wonderful time talking to. We discuss her various cosplays, following her brother into the series, her love for Gherman, and a ton of stuff in between. Enjoy the episode everyone!

Editor's note: there was some audio echo prevalent in this episode. I think I was able to squash most of it, but if you hear some I'm sorry. I tried to get all of it!

Hello everyone! Please welcome Twiggy1197 to the podcast. Twiggy is a passionate Souls fan and a passionate games player, so she fits right into our usual guests on Don't Give Up, Skeleton. She tells us about her somewhat strange way of finding the series for the first time, some PVP stories, and then I take us on a bunch of tangents. It's super fun!

Hi everyone! This week's guest is Lokey, who specializes in translating the Japanese text of Souls games to see if those translations offer any insight to the lore of the games. Often times, they do. In this episode Lokey talks in detail about Havel, as well as his general experience with the games. It's a good one, folks. Lokey also gave me his email address to share if you'd like to get in touch: [email protected]
