Episode 286: What is coming to Magic in 2027??

Welcome back to the Goblin Lore Podcast and the celebration of  8 years of doing this show (first episode was posted 6/18/2018). The goblins gather to celebrate 8 years for the podcast and this time the gathering is literal. All three hosts were present at CommandFest Tacoma recently and decided in true Goblin Fashion to record in a hotel room with a poor recording device. That's our way of saying that the audio might be a little... well... off. We hope you enjoy and please come join our discord (link can be found in our linktree)



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

Episode 279: Melthos through the Chaos of the Planes

Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! Taya interviewed Seanan McGuire [https://www.seananmcguire.com/] at the launch party for her new book Strixhaven Omens of Chaos. They discussed the primary characters and the behind the scenes development story of the book. This conversation is mostly spoiler free with the discussion limited to the character information already revealed. This was followed by a very amusing audience Q&A. Thanks to Crow’s Nest Comics for hosting this event.

Warning: Some Adult Topics and language cause it's Seanan :)
