The Echo Podcast Crew is back! Listen to our latest episode HERE: Featuring... @Fybrile @Kolossus @Maaja @Sword And we're extremely proud to present one of our most devout and dearest listeners as a co-host this episode, @joshua david In this episode, we're giving you the straight, un-cut and only-slightly-censored version of The Echo, as we go behind the scenes to give our listeners a bit of what our infamous pre-shows sound like. A lot of round table discussion about anything and everything to do with Heavensward - amoung other things. No segments, no bumpers - just straight un-cut and totally random talk. There is a Loremaster in there somewhere, though. Make sure to listen for it. Apologies for the poor sound quality near the end of the episode - we were plagued with lag the entire recording session. The intermission cover I introduce during the show will be postponed until next episode. I felt the show would work better as a behind-the-scenes themed episode with as minimal editing as possible.

The Echo Podcast Crew is back! Featuring... @Fybrile @Maaja @Sword @Jinzuku In this episode, we're joined by Jinzuku, one of the moderators here at the Realm, in time for our review of the best and worst parts of 2.0. This episode was actually recorded a number of weeks ago, but due to some RL issues (read: getting slammed with work) it's been a long time in editing.

The Echo Podcast Crew is back! Listen to our latest episode HERE: Featuring... @Fybrile @Maaja @Sword In this episode, Fybrile can't remember names, Majaa thinks everything is right, and Sword sets a new record for the total number of bleeps in a single episode. We go over the end of FFXIV 2.0's story (lots of spoilers for those of you who haven't finished the storyline yet). For our Hot Topic, this episode we tackle the issue of endgame accessibility (read: nerfing content). This episode was loooooong. After a dozen hours of editing, we pared it down to just a little over two hours, with the original recording going on for three. Because Kolossus wasn't able to make the recording, unfortunately we had to postpone the announcement of our listener competition for a hard copy of the Heavensward Collectors' Edition. We will get the next episode out as soon as possible (about two weeks from now), so please look forward to getting the details then, and having your chance at winning a free Collectors' Edition.

The Echo Podcast Crew is back! Featuring... @Fybrile @Maaja @Kolossus In this episode, Fybrile starts a new segment called "Feelings, with Fybrile", Majaa's shows us her best British accent, and Kolossus has some really, really, really big news. We go over our impressions of patch 2.5.1 and Heavensward news from PAX East. We decided to go for a little more of a light-hearted Hot Topic this episode, and talked about our 2.0 Bucket List from @The47thSen 's thread Stuff to Accomplish Before 3.0. In all honesty, this episode should have been ready a week ago, as I got caught up with the Realm 2.0 update. Make sure to check out this episode, as Kolossus spoils the prize we've got lined up for a competition we'll be announcing in Episode 14.

Featuring... @Fybrile @Maaja @Kolossus @Sword In this episode Fybrile drinks way too much coffee, Majaa's house gets finished, Kolossus speaks a little Chinese and Sword sings a song. We go over what we know about the Golden Saucer in 2.5.1, Cafe Eorzea, in-game marriages, relic weapons in 3.0 and a lots of other stuff. The crew is extremely happy (and relieved) to get this episode out, as we've been having issues with recording for a few months now.

@Fybrile @Maaja @Sword @Kolossus The Echo Podcast team is back, and someone's pissed in our porridge. Or, at least Fybrile's porridge. We decided to go casual in our 10th episode, and give our listeners a look at what our pre-shows typically sound like. In this episode, Fybrile goes on a rant, Majaa goes on a string of bleeps, Sword adds a couple extra vowels to Coerthas, and Kolossus finds a catchphrase! We talk about whether the current endgame is enough, patch 2.4 and what we hope to hear from FanFest! We'll be back with another episode all about the Las Vegas FanFest soon! If you want to participate or give us your feedback and suggestions, you know how to get in touch. Enjoy~
@Fybrile @Maaja @Sword Dragon As promised, episode 9 is ready just in time for patch 2.38's launch.
