I learned about lorecast through Breakfast in Beauclair. But, while I was looking for the Witcher content, I stumbled upon Mass Effect and I could not hit subscribe fast enough. This podcast did not disappoint. The hosts are very informative and entertaining. Their comparisons of real life situations make the video game world much more understandable and relatable. They have quickly become one of my new favorite shows. 😍
