This week we speak with our esteemed guest Mr Jack Shirai about the current state of the MMO genre, in between complaints about beer and the errors in judgement of Darth Vader. We do our best to answer the question 'Hey guys, what happened to Asheron's Call ?' while also goofin' on the puzzle preferences of pirates, fast blue hedgehogs, and Kelly's dark, Smash-Mouthed past. Hosts: Chris Norris-Jones, Kelly Wright, Mike Parker Guest: Jack Shirai, Celebrated Technologist and MMO Whisperer Beer of the Week: Bomber Brewing's Apex Barleywine Music by Sebastian Bender

It's the end of the world as we know it -- but it's the beginning of the music revolution as we hear it!  In this episode, the Battle Bards don their best Mad Max costumes and tackle MMO music that comes straight from the many apocalypses that game designers have imagined.  Surprising enough, it's not that bleak!

Can music make a battle-hardened bard cry?  That's what we're going to put to the test on today's episode.  Syl came up with the theme of "tearjerkers," and it's up to a bewildered Syp and a stoic Steff to figure out what will fit the bill.  It's a surprisingly lively hour of music and discussion across a wide range of MMOs.  Check it out!
