POPULARITY
This is a bit of a challenging week, and we largely went into it not knowing if we actually had a show or not. If you look at our trello there is mostly just a bunch of comments about how we played nothing but Shadowbringers this week. Kodra played a few things and we talk about Tametsi and Mario Maker 2 some more… and then there is a brief interlude about the TennoCon Stream. However the majority of this show is us talking about Shadowbringers and we have limited ourselves to only talking spoilers up until the first Trial. This is of course because we are progressed to various points in the story… and my god does the story matter this time. Topics Discussed: Tametsi Hexcells Lumines Mario Maker 2 TennoCon Stream Shadowbringers The only thing most of us played this week More general impressions Spoilers for up to the First Shb Trial Spoilers about Stormblood Lali-hooooooooooooooo! Quite possibly the best Final Fantasy Game Ever?
A ten-sided shape appears in your hands. It's this week's podcast! And it's all about puzzle games. John enjoys number puzzles like Hexcells and Globesweeper. Matt enjoys the Jindosh box of Dishonored 2. And Brendan likes being a pretend hacker in Zachlikes. But we’ve also played non-puzzle games. Apex Legends has been keeping Matt happy with its bullets and crows. While John is liking the unserious shooting of Far Cry: New Dawn. Brendan still just wants to punch people in Yakuza Kiwami.

The first episode of Root of the Rot after the midseason break is quite possibly the most important we have ever done. It discusses the French Revolution in its inception and execution until the Napoleonic era. We start by examining the definition of revolution as it is defined by Father Denis Fahey, C.S.Sp., what it does to the social order of society, and how it affects both Church and State. We also examine the unique perspective of Americans, as the young United States played an integral role in inspiring the French Revolution. The new French "values" of "liberty, equality, and fraternity" are also well dissected and examined. Sure, they sound nice, but what do they really mean? How have these principles of the French Revolution permeated into the modern mind as dogmas, and what do these principles actually mean once one scratches the surface beyond their lofty sound and seemingly acceptable aims? The Declaration of the Rights of Man, another Masonic triumph in the vein of "liberty, equality, and fraternity," is also looked at, as well as the role of Freemasonry and Judaism. As Pope Leo XIII wrote in his encyclical letter Tametsi Futura Prospicientibus: "The world has heard enough about the "rights of man." Let it hear something about the rights of God." (cf. Tametsi, #13, 1900) Join us as His Excellency, Bishop Daniel Dolan, pastor of St. Gertrude the Great Catholic Church in West Chester, Ohio and host Stephen Heiner review this important part of history that has produced so many effects that modern man still feels today.
