Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. Hobbes has been continuing to train for the Twin Cities Marathon (running to raise money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention) and Goblin Lore in conjunction with Drew from Show and Tell will put putting out stories of hope. You can find the ongoing playlist here.

Taya, Alex and returning guest Reinhardt discuss the recent spider-man set briefly, how Magic’s story might have been influenced by super hero comics, and speculate some on the future of Magic’s story.

We also finally have a Linktree with all of our discounts/resources including how to join our Discord
