Episode 258: Finalest Final Fantasy episode (maybe)

Welcome back to the Goblin Lore Podcast and the celebration of  7 years of doing this show (first episode was posted 6/18/2018). The goblins gather to celebrate 7 years for the podcast in the only way we know how.... kind of controlled chaos. All of the hosts separately chose 7... things(?) to talk about that are important to them. This episode is kind of long because there was a fair amount of cheating going on.

Also please stay around until the end of the episode for an announcement from Hobbes as well as information on some side project he will have around Suicide Prevention. He is running the Twin Cities Marathon to raise awareness and funds [https://supporting.afsp.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=3274869&fbclid=IwY2xjawK-h8FleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHpjOdNr53HF_EnzOnDwCaTNa-3lSDuIdne0DjOGSklqfelzwZFPlNjuogqDL_aem_1MeX--WmsJF5782mxTpqIQ]

Episode 257: The Lucky 7th Anniversary filled with 777s

Hello, Podwalkers, and welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! Happy Pride Month y'all! Today we are here to discuss the Queerness that appears to be inherent on the plane of Tarkir. This was initially sparked by seeing I Write Robots post on Felothar [https://bsky.app/profile/iwriterobots.com/post/3lltpxm5jyk2y]! Coupled with Jay Annelli's thread [https://bsky.app/profile/vorthosjay.bsky.social/post/3lmfaklekjs2i] updating some of the demographics (and a great response mentioning Trans of Tarqueer) this seemed like a great time discuss some elements of queer representation in Magic.

Also check out The Truth of Names for some fantastic Magic storytelling: https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/magic-story/truth-names-2015-01-28

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!
