The Fantasy Boys, despite all their meandering and threatening, finish the book. This was an episode of firsts: Andrew opens up about how he is feeling, Ryan bares his heart for us and shows some semblance of vulnerability, and manages to make only ONE anime reference.  As the cold road takes its toll, join us as we conclude this epic tale of heroes, bravery, and buffoonery.

The Fantasy Boys, take a load off this recording. Sit back in the mudhut with the muck man and listen in as papa regales you with a story of betrayal, found family, terrifying jungles and mud weed. Join us as the boys discuss the finer points of cannibalism, Snagglepuss, and "who rescued who".

The boys are back in town, and they're getting the band back together! After struggling for an hour with some truly maddening technical difficulties, the Fantasy boys tackle the epic saga (lol) of a group of old mercenaries coming out of retirement for one last adventure. Ryan surprises the boys with a fun new mini-game, Casey has a grade A crashout, and Andrew takes hosting out for a spin. Join us as we embark on a zaney, hilarious, adventure into the Heartwyld!

While taking a break in between books, the fantasy boys answer some audience questions, discuss swords and their innate draw (pun intended) to fantasy lovers, and try their hands at a few new segments at varying successes. Brunch, maps, and the different archetypes of 'handsome', there's nothing these boys won't talk about, ad nauseam, in the name of content.

We. FINALLY. Did it. 310,191 pages later, the Fantasy Boys finish covering the Eye of the World. The delirium has clearly set in as they devolve into covering such thought provoking topics as: timeless Shrek fantasy tropes, topical Adam Sandler references, and speculate on Lan's manscaping practices. Ryan struggles with pronunciation (surprising no one) and Casey rediscovers his love for Digimon. If you're confused by reading these notes then BUCKLE UP. We're just as confused.

The Fantasy Boys struggle through a curse that has afflicted Sir Andrew's audio, but still somehow manage to make a coherent sentence between the three of them. They make like a million references to other nerd media, and discuss the finer things like, the spirit of a wolf living inside you, a halfway decent Gollum impression, and Ryan's aspirations to be a pirate. Casey loses something very precious to him early on and has to live with his decisions. What hijinks will the boys think up next?

The Fantasy Boys channel the true source, and are subsequently driven mad by the Dark One's taint, as their conversation deteriorates into squabbles about mustaches, dragons, scary scary Mists, and what it means to be the "un-chosen" boy in a group of Chosen ones. Come experience the world of "Randland", bad maps and all, as we unpack the behemoth that is Robert Jordan's unparalleled world building.

Ryan grapples with his lack of control, the boys answer audience questions, they discuss who would win in a fight, and complain about a Harry Potter plot hole from 15 years ago. Ryan finds a new sign-off.

The Fantasy Boys discuss the colorful audiobook talent, Andrew develops a newfound hatred for anthropomorphized mice, and Ryan and Casey butcher an already butchered French accent. All this while basking in the gloriously-homey aesthetic of Mossflower Woods and the Redwall Abbey. Come see for yourselves the wonderful world of Redwall that inevitably lead to 21 additional novels, a tv series, an OPERA!?! and numerous videogames.

We discuss the ironies of monster hunter hate, parallels into popular fairytale lore, and lament how bleak and horrible the world of the Witcher is.  All this, as we give you a chapter by chapter breakdown of Andrzej Sapkowski's series of short stories that launched the Witcher canon into the forefront of the Fantasy Genre, inspiriing video games, tv shows, and Casey's unhealthy obsession with "big dude, big sword, scary monster."
