  • Episode 56: Something Wicked This Way Comes

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-sixth episode, Hobbes and Joe tackle the very uncomplicated issue of evil.

    Two of your goblin trio take on the nature of evil and good – are they universal or subjective concepts? what are indicators of evil actions? what's the difference between a villain, an antagonist, and an anti-hero? – and sift through some examples in Magic lore of non-Black aligned antagonists and villains, as well as the handful of Black-aligned heroes.

    Along the way, we discuss the new Joker movie, the new planeswalker Oko from The Wildered Quest, and much more!

  • Episode 55: Doing a Swear

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-fifth episode, your favorite goblins discuss the linguistic roots and psychological and sociological purpose of curse words (that's right: cusses and swears) in the Magic: the Gathering Multiverse! Why do we swear? Where do swears come from? How would these "oaths" and "expletives" occur in the Multiverse?

    Don't worry; this episode is still PG-rated, but it does reference coarse language, so sensitive elf ears may want to be averted for this one.

    Referenced in this episode: Doug Beyer's "Savor the Flavor" column on the topic, this New Republic article, the Dack Fayden comics by IDW.

  • Episode 54: Redeem for One Personal-Size Color Pie

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-fourth episode, your favorite goblins discuss their own personal Magic: the Gathering Color Pie identities and what categorization can (and can't) describe about a person! Do you see your labels as descriptive or prescriptive?

    In this episode, we discuss why it's okay to be Black-aligned sometimes, how the Guilds, Clans, and Shards are not the only way the colors can be represented, why opposites really attract, why the color pie and other descriptive methods sometimes fall short, and why our brains really like to put things in neat piles.

  • Episode 53: The Color Pie of Sauces

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-third episode, your favorite goblins place common condiments in a color pie, figuring out an ethos for sauces as a Patreon patron request by Zak Leubner (@Zak_SHWAP). Thanks for the excellent suggestion!

    This episode touches on a fast food restaurant rant, the racism behind MSG fear, "tactical bacon", and more!

  • Episode 52: You Say You Want an Aether Revolution?

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-second episode, Joe Redemann (@Fyndhorn) celebrates Labor Day by discussing the potential for an Aether Revolt in real life. What do Pia Nalaar and Karl Marx have in common, and where do the Weldfast and modern-day America diverge in their potential for societal reshaping?

  • Episode 51: Eldraine's Antagonists, From Big Bad to Little Worse

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our fifty-first episode, Joe Redemann (@Fyndhorn) cracks open the dusty pages of the comic collection and true crime stories while discussing what the preview chapter of Throne of Eldraine: The Wildered Quest means for the return of Garruk Wildspeaker, the introduction of Oko (our first faerie planeswalker), and the assembling of Magic: the Gathering's own Rogues' Gallery.

    In this episode, we discuss some story spoilers (though very minimal), the Pinkerton Detective Agency, labor strikes, Jace Beleren is a cop, "big bad" vs. "rogues' gallery", DC Comics' Legion of Doom and Justice League, radical rebellion, and corporate greed. It's an action-packed follow-up to our episode on closing story space!

  • Episode 49: Born a Gamblin' Gob

    Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome to the Goblin Lore Podcast!

    In our forty-ninth episode, Alex and Joe discuss a goblin character not yet physically seen in Magic: the Gathering lore – Krark, of the Mirrodin goblins – and the clan he founded and inspired. This clan of goblins was the one that adopted Slobad when he was found cast out into the wilderness, but they are superstitious and irrational...

     

    Much like the Gambler's Fallacy in the real world! The two pick apart the little we know of this mysterious goblin tribe, the card Krark's Thumb, and how both of these are a good lens for viewing the "hot hand" or "evening out" probability theory of the Gambler's Fallacy in the real world.
