Episode #556: December Patron Q&A! is ready for Download!

This month we asked our Patrons "What's your favorite part of Dragonflight so far?"

• Tell me the Spencer/Jason origin story. How did y'all become friends. What made you guys decide to start the podcast, & how has the podcast brought y'all together, both personally and with your WoW friend groups?
• What do you think of the whole less-faction-conflict aspect of this game?
• How are you finding raiding and what's your favorite feature in Dragonflight so far, and one you think needs the most work?
• I caught you on twitch for the first time last month and was wondering what the story about your favorite thing on the shelf behind each of you?
• Do you guys think with the whole renown system and stuff that we will not have paragon bags this expansion?
