Episode 69: Nice

Time for something completely different, listeners. Our old friend Niki from episode 36 sent me the following DM a few months back: "hey, do you have any plans for episode 69?" Some of y'all probably know that I record these pretty far in advance, so while I had something for episode 69, I immediately told Niki I didn't and asked her what she was thinking. Her idea was to have her three gay friends come on the show, and have a sort of hour long chat about how great Lady Maria is. That seemed like it could be a super interesting and hilarious podcast, so I agreed, and I was right: it IS a super interesting and hilarious podcast. As someone who doesn't get into shipping or even developing crushes on fictional characters, I was interested in getting an opportunity to ask about this stuff. So, the episode you're hearing is exactly that. Four ladies (Niki, Molly, Steph, and Grace) gushing over Lady Maria and various other Dark Souls women, and trying to explain what they see in these characters to me.

A bit of a warning: the audio in this is FINE, but as you might imagine, having four people on the same track isn't ideal. Steph's audio is fairly low, but I tried to boost it when she was talking by herself. There's also some over talk I would have cut out of a normal episode, but unfortunately here I couldn't do that. I think it's perfectly listenable, just a bit...chaotic, which I think suits the tone of the conversation.
