Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! Hobbes and Taya are here to talk about one of Hobbes's favorite things (well many of them and only a tiny bit is about Bolas). We review something Hobbes first enlightened us about back in Episode 38 [https://zencastr.com/z/1lN9yjCX] of the show... S.M.A.R.T. goals [https://www.yourcoach.be/en/coaching-tools/smart-goal-setting.php] as a motivational and achievement too as well as the dreaded concept of planning!

Reminder that at the end of the month there will be a charity event [https://zencastr.com/z/1lN9yjCX] for NAMI that the podcast is greatly committed to helping!

We also finally have a Linktree [https://linktr.ee/GoblinLore] with all of our discounts/resources

Episode 255: Dragons are still SMART

Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! Taya and Alex find another excuse to talk about the upcoming Final Fantasy series while Hobbes takes a night off. They cover cards and story beats for several games, mostly the four from the commander decks (6, 7, 10, 14) focusing on cards covering emotional scenes and struggles for the characters involved. The potential mental health impacts of these scenes are explored as part of our commitment to May and Menta Health Awareness Month!

Warning that this episode does have spoilers for FF as we know that some people might be coming to these games (as old as some of them are) through Magic the Gathering!

Reminder that at the end of the month there will be a charity event for NAMI that the podcast is greatly committed to helping!

Episode 249: Where Have We Been?

Hello, Podwalkers! We've missed y'all and we are gonna be at least one more week before we have full new episodes. But we wanted to share a few things. This weekend is a Charity Event for Translifeline being put on by some amazing creators. There is a Linktree [https://linktr.ee/hatehasnohome] here with all of the information including prizes/pods/auction items/information. Trans Rights are Human Rights.  Recently on Bluesky Rebell [https://bsky.app/profile/rebell.bsky.social/post/3ljfv2rcrf226] posted an excellent post on Political Activism and the Gathering.  As part of this the hosts are reaffirming their commitment to social justice and a mission of finding ways to talk about actionable advice for the topics we cover. If there's ideas people have for future guests where we can amplify our goal of action and not just "doom scrolling" or information fatigue, let us know
