- The Aphid Lounge Preview: Finding Diamonds in the Schlock (Hot Takes)
This month's patron-exclusive episode brings us back to the realm of hot (or lukewarm) takes on popular media! Daniel presents his doctoral thesis on Masters of the Universe, we overanalyze Dragonheart through socioeconomic lenses, and we talk about the nature of art itself. Plus: Queen's dope movie theme songs, subtle worldbuilding techniques, historical propaganda, escapist wish fulfillment, Rob's celebrity face blindness, and so much more!

3 min - Episode 155: A Child-God’s Playthings (Land of a Thousand Starborn Part 1)
This week, a prompt from a new listener brings us to a flat disk-like earth centered around a rising and falling sun (which is definitely not a kangaroo, despite its bouncy nature). Join us as we discuss discarded creations, gravitational implications, and Daniel's truly unfortunate luck with video games.

About Worldbuild With Us
From the publisher's feed
Worldbuild With Us
Worldbuild With Us is a podcast where we create fantastical worlds with help from you, our listeners.
This podcast is brought to you by Rob…
Hilferty, Daniel Quinn, and Courtney Staples.
Important Update
Thank you so much for your continued support, patience, and input. We've been building worlds with you since August of 2019, and after some serious discussion we’ve decided to end Worldbuild WIth Us.
We want to go out with a bang, and so we're dedicating our final episodes to the development of the Last of the Thousand Worlds. We plan to take this thing full circle and end in the month that we started and so August of 2025 will be our last episode. But it wouldn’t be Worldbuild With Us without input from all of you and we hope you'll stick around to be apart of the creative process.
If You Are a Patron
Going forward, we won't be taking any more prompts outside of the Last World, or offering any Patreon perks to patrons (such as early releases, shoutouts, etc).
- If you're entitled to a 30-second shoutout or haven't had your handle read on an episode, let us know so we can honor that before we close in August.
- You're welcome to continue supporting us until the end, or end your subscription now.
- Our Patreon will soon reflect a single "pay what you want" tier. Whatever funds we accrue from here out on will be devoted to maintaining an archive for the podcast into the future.
