Lore Boys

Lore Boys are back to absorb all life on your podcast app of choice down to the smallest bacteria! Today we look into the heart of the swarm and try and reason with the Tyranid. It's more Warhammer 40K lore from one of the most comprehensive wells of worldbuilding we'll likely never plumb dry. Are they all id or ego? How does their long range communication work and where is their boss? Does instal...

Lore Boys are here, and we're talking about Borderlands! For our 3rd anniversary we figured we'd dive back and revisit our 3rd ever episode, with the added twist that we can now include the Borderlands 3, of course. We're talking the Children of the Vault, a group of die-hard fanatics willing to do whatever it takes for the vine, including murdering witches in the name of their saviours, Jake and...

Ever wonder what would happen if the gubberment uploaded NANO BOTS to pull all the gluten out of the atmosphere? Well we sure have, cause we're a dumb hand kind of podcast here on the Lore Boys. We're talking about the lore behind The Surge game series from Deck13 Interactive, and we bring our usual brand of idiotic Lore Boys canon to it, but this time that canon is endorsed! We've got garlic brea...

Censored Lore Boys back at it with the sex cults! Today Ethan takes us to the valley of the Satyrs for a little love, and a lot of debauchery. Today we get deep into Xenagos!

Hey all, Lore Boys here with some real-life Lore from everyone's favourite real-life boy, James. We're doing a brief history of twitch dot tv and covering all the manufactured drama and history therein. From humble beginnings as a chat service, to the multimedia powerhouse known the world over today, Twitch's past sure is confusing and scary at times. If you ever wanted to find US on twitch, the b...

Listening is the only way to guarantee citizenship! Hello or welcome back Lore Folk, we're going low tech again and talking a little real and a little fake but mostly book on this week's episode of the Lore Boys! A kindly old fan (we assume) in the Netherlands suggested we cover Starship Troopers and here it is! Today we cover the fascinating politics of the author, how it became a film, and using...

Hello and welcome Lore Folk, Today we've got a magic trick for you. A Magic the Gathering trick that is!

This episode, Ethan straps some knives to a roomba, Peter joins a home-owners' association, and James tries to summon his long-dead friends. If you w...

We are the Lore Boys and we are here with something whacky for you this week: DC Comics X-Men before the X-Men, the Doom Patrol. Created in the 60s when sex was cool, drugs were cool, and communism and Nazis were bad! Muckey Mouse and Gonald Guck show up to talk about how Disney is bad, and how the X-Men did 9/11?? This episode, Ethan talks Nominative Determinism, Peter gets the courage to lazily...

Lore Boys back, with some more of that zany Command and Conquer backstory. If you haven't yet heard our first Command & Conquer episode , you don't need to worry as this timeline stands on its own pretty well. We're avoiding the Red Scare this week and talking that troublesome Tiberium instead. Trees shooting crystal all over the place like pollen, and could it be that the whole world suddenly...

Hello and welcome back, It's us! Your friendly neighborhood Lore Boys! Assuming you live in our hood anyway. Jamie brings us some silly history in a time where we really all just need to relax. Nothing relaxes us like entrapment, crippling debt, pointless labour and Albert Camus!

If you thought we'd stop in these trying times you'd be wrong, with a wanton disregard for the safety of ourselves and others we bring to you the lore of the DOTA-verse.

Lore Boys back, with some real highfalutin heresy. We're taking a run at the Pope and talking about Blasphemous lore. From the humble studios of a Spanish edge-lord's game company to your ears, the Lore Boys are here to break down some boiling sap into some delicious Quebecois treats. Ethan is back for this episode to bring his particular brand of impiousness, Peter's here to promote the profane a...

Lore Boys are back once again as a hot pair, with Ethan away the Boys can play. Play World of Warcraft that is. Jamie has a problem and the only cure is making an audio guide for Blackwing Lair over in WoW Classic. We explore the different dragon flights and their powers, if using a dragon in a wheelchair to destroy his own eggs makes us the bad guy, and how to control a famous Canadian rapper in...

Some say I couldn't have been done, some say it shouldn't have been done, either way one crazy man down in the US of A did it. This week Tyler from The Other Worlds Podcast goes behind the scenes at Lore Boys HQ (Pete's place) to get the skinny on the Boys. Why do we do it? Does it keep us sane? What's the best way to treat a foot wound? It's all here. Check out Tyler's podcast here: https://podca...

Lore Boys are back with Halo, this time with a focus on the creation of the Spartans including your favourite, John 117! Or if he's not your favourite, maybe you'll like to hear he's one of the few characters who doesn't have a past steeped in war crimes. Either way, these genetically modified supersoldiers built to bully the working class and emotionally scar their parents do have a rich history....

The most surprising thing about this episode is finding out that Mr. Bean had less than 20 episodes, seriously? Like what the Hell? Anyway, Lore Boys here and it's a one man show kinda show. Not us of course, we don't have that kind of chutzpah we're talking about the incredibly talented Toby Fox and his mega-hit Undertale.
