Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 23 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of September 15-21, a brief week with some key character moments, and an unexpected resolution to the festival/typhoon we've been teased about being on the way.
Jonathon and Tom run down the almost-full week of free time the two get to enjoy, coming off the tumultuous and stressful weeks we've had recently. However, we do get the opportunity for another set of introspective moments with Ken and Koromaru, thanks to the continuation of the optional hangouts that popped up this week (full spoilers if you haven't played those!).
In addition to that, we of course break down the free afternoons and evenings we have in a rather quick week of P3R, while also discussing what occurs around what should have been a festive moment. With an unexpected encounter with Takaya, and an unfortunate turn of events, we sail through the week while also answering some of your questions, discussing this week's pop quiz, and much more.
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of September 22-28.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 22 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of September 8-14, which allows us to dig into a lot of important character moments.
Spoiler and content warnings for this week: As we dig into the discussions of Chidori and Junpei's relationship and what we learn of their situation this week, please be advised that we do briefly discuss topics of self-harm throughout the episode as they pertain to the storyline.
Additionally, Tom and Jonathon break down a large number of S.E.E.S. character-driven moments from throughout the week. However, these moments are technically optional and it is possible you may not have experienced them yet! Basically, any chance this week Tom and Jonathon had to tackle a "!!" moment from Ken, Shinji, Mitusuru, and Koromaru, they did. These discussions take up the bulk of our conversation this week, so if you have not experienced those, we recommend coming back to this episode after you have, or enjoy our spoiler-filled take on those events and give them a try after if you so wish.
We do of course spend time breaking down what may have otherwise gone on in our free time, as Tom continues to outpace Jonathon on the social stats, while Jonathon jumps into social links Tom maybe forgets are even in the game. But, yes, this week is a doozy of character background info, important lore dumps, and more, so if you have not experienced these scenes yet, come back once you have!
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of September 15-21.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 21 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of September 1-7, meaning we jump into the next Full Moon Operation, as well as plenty of other key character moments!
That's right, another FMO has arrived (that still hasn't caught on, has it?), as Tom and Jonathon dig into a packed week of battles, befriending, and...book reading? Yes, as a new school semester starts in Persona 3 Reload, Jonathon and Tom recount some of their day to day activities, as despite this being a story-heavy week, there's still plenty of free time to cover.
However, there are plenty of moments to highlight as we learn more about S.E.E.S., Strega, and their story. We dissect the further steps in the relationship between Junpei and Chidori, including the climactic events between them during the full moon. We learn a bit more from Takaya, which deepens our understanding of Persona. And we welcome another member (back) to S.E.E.S., as Shinji finally, officially joins the gang.
That all culminates in some discussion of Tartarus and the big Full Moon boss battle. We offer some thoughts on our latest batch of team members and their abilities, while Tom (and maybe even Jonathon) reveals a fatal flaw as they entered this week's big boss fight.
Plus, we read some of your wonderful comments, offer a new pop quiz, and more!
Slight spoilers from 51:22 - 52:55 about Kamiki's first social link scene, and from 1:04:00-1:05:08 about Maya and Kenji's social link endings.
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of September 8-14!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 10 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of August 18-24. As we return to a bit of a normal cadence, we dig into a week full of free time, though not without its story teases that continue to build off of recent key events in the world of S.E.E.S.
The bulk of the episode is, of course, spent breaking down our free time activities. From social links nearing the end of their stories, to actually finishing some, Jonathon and Tom make good progress on proving the main character has at least one or two friends who will hang out every day for a week straight. We also dig into what it's like if you decide to hang out with the movie festival that is currently going on in Iwatodai.
The week also offers the opportunity to dig into some scenes as we get to know the newer characters better, including an impromptu meeting with Takaya, plenty of time with our good pup Koromaru, and more.
We also take the time to dig into your comments about some of our recent discussions about Persona 3 Reload, including pacing and character development, as well as comparisons to the wider Persona library. And, yes, it's the return of every listener's favorite game show...what is Tom holding!?
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of August 25-31, as we round out the month and approach a Full Moon! We'll likely dig into Tartarus next week, so be sure to dip in if you can by then.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 18 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of August 10-17. The slightly longer week allows us to fully cover our summer school learnings, the summer festival, a surprising Dark Hour encounter, and so much more!
To help get us back on track, Tom and Jonathon dig into an oddly longer yet abbreviated week in the world of P3R. We speed through our studies with Edogawa (though, for the sake of Tom's pop quiz, we hope you were paying attention), as we dig into the arcana and more.
There's thankfully a bit more to talk about in this week of Persona 3 Reload though, as the duo digs into some of the free time and unexpected activities of the week, too. Yes, while we do have a doctor's visit later in the week, we also get a chance to dissect an unexpected encounter with Takaya in the Dark Hour. Tom offers some thoughts from a first timer on why this scene was so exciting to experience, and Jonathon does his best not to spoil anything important. The hosts also offer their differing experiences at the summer festival, take Koromaru for some walks, and more.
And, folks, you'll never believe it. Yes, it's Miyamoto's time to shine, as Jonathon and Tom finally stop putting off their next complete P3R Social Link. They break down what they thought of his storyline, how it compared to them for Kenji's, and more.
We've also got time this week to dig into some thoughtful questions from the Take Your Time audience, Tom offers another pop quiz, and Jonathon can't seem to stop knocking things over on his desk.
(Warning: Spoilers for Miyamoto's Social Link at 39:23-48:08)
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of August 18-24 - we're back to a normal cadence!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 17 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of August 4-9, as we discuss the events of the latest Full Moon Operation, some additional free time, and new mechanics!
While this week is of course focused around the underground Full Moon Operation for August in P3R, Tom and Jonathon take some time to dig into the rest of the free time that week. This bout of time included chances to get closer and closer to some of our longest-running Social Links in Persona 3 Reload, as well as spend some time with our dormmates. And with that, Tom unlocks a new battle characteristic as we jump into one of the benefits of hanging out with the members of S.E.E.S., even if it doesn't up a Social Link.
Naturally, the bulk of our attention is focused on the FMO of the month, as the members of P3R's S.E.E.S. meet Strega for the first time. We discuss that showdown, as well as the unique double-foe battle at the end of that night's events. Jonathon and Tom talk strategy, team builds, and their overall thoughts on this fight and evening compared to the last few months.
There's more to discuss, though, as we dig into some of the unique character-building moments this week, including new moments with Koromaru, Ken, and Junpei.
(Warning: Some brief social link spoilers for Kenji at 59:25-59:36)
Next week's episode will be focused on the days of August 10-17. A larger amount of days, but it will get us back on track for our regular cadence!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 16 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of July 27 - August 3, as we speed our way through the thrills of track practice to get to the track meet, stumble upon some major story beats, and more!
Our week is predominantly taken up by the daily track practices that take up our daytime activities, but that doesn't mean the week is lacking in key topics to cover. We dig into the surprising re-introduction of Koromaru and how they factor into our life with the rest of S.E.E.S. We, naturally, tackle the track meet itself, which includes the introduction of a new Social Link in the form of our new rival Hayase.
This week of Persona 3 Reload also gives us an opportunity to discuss what the next section of Tartarus is like! We dive into the new aesthetic, our new party member, and some of the new functionality like Monad Doors and Passages.
Do we make it out of Tartarus in one piece (a reference to this week's intro)? Do we actually get time to talk about Miyamoto? Find out about all that and so much more on this week's episode of Take Your Time!
For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of Aug. 4-9, one day less than a full week. We promise it makes sense!
(Also, apologies for some of the audio popping toward the end of the episode, Jonathon moved his mic in such a way to make it more prevalent. Time to invest in a pop filter!)

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 14 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of July 14-19, as we face another truncated week including exams and some set up for summer vacation.
After a busy week on the last episode of Take Your Time, Tom and Jonathon have a chance to take a bit more of a breather as they cover the latest batch of exams and a few days of free time, plus your questions and comments. After going through your answers to the pop quiz question, the duo takes a brief check-in to discuss the exams questions, how we feel about their place in the story, and whether we're embarrassed by our performance.
Beyond that, we dig into the couple of days of free time, which includes chances to continue furthering our social links with a few non-school pals (or scammers), determine whether Jonathon almost missed leveling up his academics, and checking in on a brand new shop! Yes, with the combination of a new shop opening, and some character moments to touch on as the members of S.E.E.S. prepare for their big trip in the coming week, there's still some important matters to discuss.
But with some additional downtime, we get the opportunity to go in-depth and answer some of your questions on the show. We touch on music, character comparisons, our growing impressions of the cast, and more.
