Recently we found out that Rory's never seen The Thing so we decided to fix that with an extra special episode dedicated to John Carpenter's 1982 classic.
We've split the podcast into two parts: Powers' predictions before watching the film then his reaction after we watched the film together.

With RETRY: Elden Ring | Part One concluding today, we wanted to give you an update on what you can expect from RKG next.
Before we get onto that, some of you might be wondering why our Elden Ring series is being split up into three parts in the first place. We spoke about this 2024-02-03 18:01:48 +0000 UTC View Post

Hey, everyone. It appears Everpress closed the store earlier than we were told.
We'll contact them and see whether it's possible to re-open orders and let you know if that's possible.
Really about the confusion!

So where were we?
A good question to ask yourself after last week's episode.
Well, we're delighted to bring you Aunty Finchy's showdown with our second shardbearer – the famed Red Lion, the Starscourge, the great General Radahn.
We suspect this is one you've been waiting for, and it's another episode we loved making. 2024-01-27 10:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post

We're so sorry. We don't know what happened this episode. For years we've spoken about losing our minds filming these episodes, and with this episode, we fear that may have finally happened.

This week Aunty Finchy journeys into the very of Aeonia to help save a young girl. What an absolute legend.
She's already got enough on her plate with finding Radahn, and making the stars turn, but she still has time to help save another soul. There's even plenty of time to explore Sellia, Town of Sorcery, too.
Enjoy the next episode...

• We review our adventures down in Siofra River Well
• We find out that the Urumi is REAL
• And we watch a goldfish possibly be better at Elden Ring than ourselves, which is a depressing revelation at Christmas after 7 years of doing this
We need to get the stars turning, and there's only way to do that: Aunty Finchy needs to track down Starscourge Radahn.
The last we heard he was in the scarlet blighted wilds of Caelid, so we're heading back to finally explore that hellish landscape. Now where would the famed Red Lion be hiding?

The storyline is really ramping up now and we're happy that you, our amazing patrons, get to watch Aunty Finchy's adventures a little bit early.

Join me for the next couple of hours, as we have a very intellectual soiree where we can go over anything we've covered this term, do some Q&A, and look ahead to what we might like to cover in the New Year.
You've all worked so hard this year. See you shortly, class.
