Welcome, loyal subjects! We are your hosts, Will and Harry, and we are Not The Princes! A new podcast between two of the most decent self proclaimed critics that were free for a prolonged period of time.

Considered a return to form, Doom has taken back the crown it gave away many years ago, but does it deserve the crown to begin with? Join Will and Harry as they crawl through waves of imps and squishy walls as they tackle Doom!

Welcome, loyal subjects! We are your hosts, Will and Harry, and we are Not The Princes! A new podcast between two of the most decent self proclaimed critics that were free for a prolonged period of time.
