This podcast was recorded prior to FFG's response! Rather than miss an episode, we felt it was still worth putting our thoughts out there.

The Planetary Qualifier details have released, and they don't seem to live up to the expectations that players had when they signed up for the months ago. Why is that, and what can be done about it? Let's do our best to provide helpful thoughts about a game we are all very passionate about!
