Stinger Bee League presents the BuzzCast, a Killer Queen Black podcast

Bee Game League discord moderator Joe Sklover joins Blake and Kyle to discuss the Bee Game League and other topics, including some of the early roots of not just Killer Queen Black, but of its precursor Killer Queen Arcade; Blake and Kyle recap the nail-biting Stinger Bee League playoffs; and we discuss the upcoming offseason and what's in store for the future of the Stinger Bee League and for the future of the BuzzCast. Excitement! Suspense! Drama! Exclamatives! The BuzzCast! You! Listen!

P.S. We were remiss during this episode in forgetting to thank everyone from Bee Game League and abroad who watched the Stinger Bee League playoffs, but we saw you and we were humbled and indeed we are very grateful - thank you for taking the time to tune in and watch us!

Kyle and Blake answer your mail-in questions (well, Blake answers them, Kyle just reads them); we also ask the question: does the Podcast Effect exist? We look back at the fierce matchups from week 7 and find out how guest player Joe from Bee Game League fared in his Stinger Bee League debut; we look ahead to week 8; and Blake makes a very special announcement that all SBL players should be excited for! It's time to get pumped for the BuzzCast, because this sort of thing is Blake's Bag, baby! And it's going to be huge.

P.S. We'll link to 23 second Helix Temple solo berry record video once we can actually get our hands on a link to it!
