Duress Crew ventures deep into Dominaria's forbidden archives in their newest project: Lore Whores. Hosts Matty and Ben light a candle, brush the cobwebs, and crack open an ancient tome: The Gathering Dark, by Jeff Grub. This arcane scripture was the first book of the Ice Age Cycle of MTG novels, and you're invited to listen to an eldritch book review.

OoooOOooOOoooooOooo Spoooooky! This 'Weeny episode follows our intrepid hero Billy during the Shoe City Showdown 2, a tournament series run surprisingly well for a crew as incompetent as the Zoo Crew. What starts out as a man-on-the-street episode turns into a mini tournament report, because Billy can't help but make everything about him.

Back to our regularly scheduled programming, this one's a twofer: part one is with Nick and he has a chat with Billy about TO Fatigue and the cost of doing CREW BUSINESS. Part two is Mike's assessment of eternal formats and some New England punk lore.

The final episode of our Eternal Weekend miniseries, Billy walks around and ruins everybody's meal at several locations. Bonus Andy (OST) and Phil Villain (Zoo Crew).

Due to popular demand, Hardcast is now the Rob Show. Eternal Weekend Saturday with the whole gang at the spot.

Sweet! We got the travel recording setup to fucking run. Billy kicks it off with Rob, who looks like he's the crew's muscle but he's actually the crew's heart. After Billy abandons the episode halfway through to let Brendan and Rob talk chess and poker.

God we're tired, hope you like these. Mike, Rob, and Bryce get grilled by Billy. Some punk lore.

It's currently 3:50 AM don't say I never gave you nothing. The first episode of the DxC daily trip diary from EWNA25
