Anthropologists studied the behaviour of players to get information about real life pandemics.We also learn which class of person to avoid, no it isn't the poor as their ability to steal the souls of the monarchy has been dismissed as quackery it was hunters.

Magic: The Gathering Lore - Kamahl's Odyssey

Lore Boys back, after another hiatus brought about by unforeseen circumstances. Who'd have thought three sad boys would have such a hard time meeting up for several hours a week to do something they all love? Not us, that's for sure. Regardless, we're here with some more Magic: the Gathering history in what will be another multipart series. We're returning to Dominaria, though we're way ahead of the Return to Dominaria. We're a measly few decades post-Phyrexian-Invasion, and we're traveling to Otaria to meet a young woman named Jeska and her brother Kamahl.Kamahl, it turns out, has a thing for Superbowl-esque trophies, and will do just about anything to get his hands on one.

Hello and welcome Lore Folk, this week we're building towards something great. This week we're building Lego!

Apex Legends Lore - Character Profiles

Apex Legends Lore - Character Profiles

Lore Boys are back with more tasty lore. In case you missed it, our previous Titanfall episode covers a bit of the backstory to Kuben Blisk's Apex Games, and why all these quirky characters find themselves at the end of the known universe with nothing but and endless rain of firepower and a thirst for the blood of other athletes... a lot like Sochi, I'd imagine. But today's episode is all about the personalities themselves. How Michael Phelps is Pathfinder, Nancy Kerrigan is Pathfinder, how Mikaela Pauline Shiffrin is, well... Pathfinder.As we venture to the Frontier to take in some classic sport, James squatters up his speech, Peter parties with some Rats, Wrait gets arerested for shoplifting, and Lifeline finally changes her gloves.

The Lord of the Rings Part 2 - The Rings of Power

Boy the Lord of the Rings sure does have a lot of lore. Sauron sure did like to get up to a lot of stuff, like making 19 whole other rings just like the one they made three movies about. We talk about their maker, Celebrimbor, and his work in Sauron's sweatshops producing cheaply made phones. At least he managed to get his friends some phones before Sauron data-capped them.This episode Ethan kisses some Orcs, James learns to become a very average wizard, and Peter holds his staff a little too tight.As always, if you like the show and want to show some support, the best way to do so is to leave us some reviews on iTunes.

After our brief hiatus the Lore Boys are back, and we arbitrarily have decided to call this our season 3 premiere! Truth be told, none of us knows why some seasons end and new ones start, so we're going with our gut. We're talking about Marvel comics' Avengers on this episode, but we made sure to keep it completely spoiler free for Endgame content, so all you frosty nerds out there don't need to worry Ethan tries to give some background on the Marvel universe, how it works, and some of the other, notable dimensions in the multiverse, and then we evolve into speculation about where the Marvel Collective Universe might go in what Disney is calling Phase 4. Whether it be sexy blue aliens vs. sexy green aliens in the Kree-Skrull War, just sexy green aliens posing as sexy Avengers in Secret War, an invasion of Duckworldians, or something different altogether, we try and touch on a couple possibilities as we bumble our way through another episode.As always, if you like the show and want to show some support, the best way to do so is to leave us some reviews on iTunes. If you want to get in touch with us and maybe hear your message read on air, feel free to reach out to us on social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.)
