Episode 117 brings Blue, Justin, & Green back together to chat about the shells that Ghosts use in the Destiny universe to show off their personalities - and surprisingly there is a fair amount of information to parse through. Forgive Blue for the tangent on the Ghost in the Machine explanation - it's something of a personal interest for him. Be sure to also weigh in for the community question this week!

Episode 116 brings Blue, Justin, Green, and Beard back together to chat about the Exodus Black, a crashed Golden Age colony ship that players encounter and establish as a base of operations for events on 7066 Nessus. Along with a lively discussion about the current caretaker of the wrecked vessel (an AI who goes by the name of Failsafe - and has quickly become one of the favorite topics of chatter in the Discord server), the team breaks down a number of different pieces of information and even delve into some of the potential effects of these new developments.

Episode brings Blue, Justin, Green, and Beard back together to has out their thoughts on the Hive siblings (Oryx, Savathun, and Xivu Arath). A large point of the discussion focused on the Tablets of Ruin which Oryx used throughout the Books of Sorrow and their current location as well as questions about their true nature. There was also a healthy amount of discussion on the ability of resurrection which we see within the Ascendant Hive - and how that allows some interesting twists to the normal path of defeating such enemies.

Our 22nd installment of the Extra Lore series brings Blue, Green, and Beard together to learn about the world of Dead Space, something that Beard is happy to educate us on. Be prepared for an episode that actually allowed Blue a chance to be the one to derail the chat with random notes and questions - at the cost sometimes of Green's comfort in regards to Grimlins and headcrab beanies (trust us, it makes sense...kind of).

Episode 114 brings Blue, Justin, Green, and Beard back together for another debate episode over the Books of Sorrow - focusing especially on the question of why these items are important in game as well as if we can assign the label of "evil" to the entire species or not. We also discuss the meaning of the mysterious term "aiat" as well as let Green and Beard explain what they think about this week's leaked Music of the Spheres files.

Episode 113 brings Blue, Green, Justin, and Beard back together to chat/argue about the dangers of artificial intelligence within the game world of Destiny - and, as usual, tangents stemming off that concept (especially ideas of what is artificial intelligence, the history of the concept, the developments within the real world, and even the psychological capabilities of artificial entities). The team is also looking forward to the new Spinfoil Saturday, which will be kicking off next week and is planned to be run every last Saturday of the month on Twitch - be sure to join in for the fun live chat as we discuss topics brought up by the chat while playing a variety of games for the evening!

Episode 112 brings Blue, Justin, Green, and Beard back together to discuss/debate the nature of Osiris, in light of the new information presented to players from the recent DLC, Curse of Osiris. The chat is more about the overall arc of the story, and while there are aspects of the new lore that is given to us in game, the predominate focus is the character of Osiris rather than any individual piece of information. In addition, this week's Lost Lore was also an Osiris themed topic - dealing with the relationship that existed between Osiris and Toland the Shattered.

Episode 111 brings Blue, Green, and Beard together to chat about the overarching power of Hope both within the Destiny universe and in our own. This episode is a bit of a tangent-filled exploration, as the topic itself is infused in just about everything that exists within Destiny - but ties in nicely with the Extra Lore episode that we had earlier this week.

Our 21st installment of the Extra Lore series brings Blue, Green, Beard, and returning guest co-host BelleBunny together to discuss the powerful story of Hellblade - well, at least Green and Belle do. Blue and Beard, having not gotten a chance to really play (Blue has watched some of the game played and all of the cutscenes) really took a chance to take a back seat to the conversation. A large point of the discussion with this particular title was that of the emphasis on mental health - inside and outside of the game.
Note that while the game itself is rather gruesome - we do manage to keep it pretty PG in regards to the chat. There are a bit of more brutal concepts discussed, so anyone who isn't comfortable or have Little Lights listening in with you should just keep that in mind.

Episode 110 brings Blue, Green, Beard, and Justin back together to discuss the updated information that we have regarding those fashionable Hunters - focusing especially on the changes to the subclasses made in Destiny 2. The group also takes a small deviation at the start of the chat to discuss the recent occurrences in the Destiny community as well as discuss a slight change to the layout of the show (please let us know your thoughts/feedback on the discussed changes!!). For the Lost Lore segment, Blue tried to keep it brief, given the longer than usual intro - but the group discusses the new Hunter groups that we've seen, the Dead End Cure and Icarus Drifters.
