We apologize for the lack of updates over the last few weeks. We hit a couple of unexpected curve balls, and it completely derailed the party train, which is the podcast. We won’t go into details here other than to let folks know that we’re doing ok (and are both going through separate things) and will be back in the fall for Season 2. We’ll be having a production meeting soon, and the first episode of next season will be the promised John Hate’s What You Love: Firefly! So stay tuned!

Bardic Quest is a DnD actual play that splits their sessions into bite-sized chunks the length of a dramatic TV episode, which is the perfect length. The most current episode of the podcast is to have actress Annina Kaski, who is an assistant producer and plays the character Saga on Bardic Quest.

Episode 12! We interview award-winning actress, writer, and producer Annina Kaski. She’s an assistant producer and plays Saga on the DnD actual-play Bardic Quest. She has a YouTube channel and sometimes works as a magician. And she does all of that in spite of having a British accent and being from Finland!

We talked about her growing up in Finland and the UK and how she got into TTRPGs, and she answered some stupid questions. Take some time and listen to this episode!

Our Throwback episode this week is episode 32 of the original podcast, and it's about the series Gravity Falls. It's one of our favorite animated series, and we'd like to revisit it on this version of the show. The audio is a bit rough, but it's a fun conversation, and it's back when we did insane fan theories.

In our latest episode, we review Zombies and how the genre has changed, evolved, and stayed the same over the years. One thing we don’t delve too deeply into is our favorite zombie films. Frank’s is Shaun of the Dead. He loves this dark comedy because it blends the dry wit of British humor with the dark and (sometimes) gory moments of a zombie film.
