Episode 5 (Remastered): Legacy Games and Crossed Arms

A re-mastered version of Episode 5 with AI enhanced audio, where discuss one of my favorite types of games, Legacy games.  Then we go on a brief comparison of various “crossed arm” gestures seen in recent comic book films of the time.

Episode 66: How Important is “Lore” in RPGs?

In the movies, this shield is made of pure vibranium. In the comics...that's a little more complicated. Ask me about it sometime!
