Ep 57 - Yes
Thursday Oct 27, 2016
Thursday Oct 27, 2016
Episode 57 brings Blue, Mel, and guest co-hosts Kachine and Enver together for a bit of a deviation from the norm, since everyone banded together to support some good old positivity and voted Yes. As much as we enjoyed the absolute mayhem that was the chat this week, the team thought it would be a good chance to talk about the general themes and theories of what it is that we get together each week to discuss. Stories.
The chat bounces around a bit (not a huge surprise, but fair warning nonetheless) and covers the more general theories of the monomyth and how that theory applies not only to most traditional mythologies and stories, but games in particular. Get ready for some discussion on each of the team's favorite application methods of lore in game, as well as an awesome glimpse into the mind of Mel with her views on fabric theory (sounds like something we might need to get an episode on later...)!

One Year of FFC!
Sunday Oct 23, 2016
Sunday Oct 23, 2016
This special episode brings you Blue, Justin, and Mel as they celebrate the close of the first year as a podcast team. Not particularly focused on anything other than just chatting about memories (both their own and some sent in by the community) and spending time with the live chat, this episode nonetheless was a blast to record and will be fondly remembered by everyone. We cannot say thank you enough to everyone - you all are seriously an amazing community and it is a huge honor for us to be able to say that we're a part of this.

Ep 56 - Update: Dredgen & Thorn
Thursday Oct 20, 2016
Thursday Oct 20, 2016
Episode 56 brings Blue, Mel, and special guest co-host, Bo5amis together to chat about the new information that we have available to us from the Rise of Iron DLC in Destiny. While there isn't necessarily a ton of new Grimoire information, the connections that are confirmed and even those which are strongly implied are enough to warrant a full episode on its own. The conversation isn't always a serious one (surprised?) - but you definitely should stick around the end of the episode to hear something new from our friend, Dustin (his Twitter account for those who want to give him some love there for a job well done!).

Ep 54 - SIVA
Thursday Oct 06, 2016
Thursday Oct 06, 2016
Episode 54 brings Blue, Justin, and Mel together to chat about the information that we have currently available to us concerning the newest threat that the Guardian ranks face in the Destiny universe - SIVA. This technological menace is something that makes it clear that even the smallest enemy can still bring about apocalyptic disaster if not given the proper respect. That isn't to say, however, we can't have some humor thrown in on the discussion as well though!

Ep 53 (Extra Lore 07) - Intro to Assassin's Creed
Wednesday Oct 05, 2016
Wednesday Oct 05, 2016
Our 7th installment of the Extra Lore series (and the 53rd episode, for those keeping track out there) brings Blue, Justin, and special guest co-hosts Grneyedmusiklvr and coedbeast together to chat about the overarching story of the well known Assassin's Creed series. The episode covers the basic layout of the philosophical tension that lies at the heart of the conflict between the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templar Order as well as getting a bit into the weeds on the exact source of the Pieces of Eden and First Civilization. Justin does have some insight on the difficulty of a particular mission from his time in the game, but we'll let you decide on if he was successful in capturing the importance of his discovery.
