Elden Dogs (An Elden Ring Podcast)

Original Air Date: Nov 29, 2023 Of course a game as expansive as Elden Ring has enough cut content to make a 2-part episode.  The Elden Dogs are back to finish their deep dive into the world of cut content!   Join us as we assist the noble viscount of Shanehaight and shatter his comforting reality.  Listen to the impassioned Godfrey's tender words of love for his ex-lover.   And follow Kale around...

Original Air Date: Nov 08, 2023 Elden Ring, Oh Elden Ring!  Today, we're delving into the dark and unseen corners of the lore of Elden Ring, the cut content.  Things that have been left on the cutting room floor can provide some interesting insights into the development cycle and might give us a possible glimpse into the DLC. In this episode, we'll drink a woman, ruin a merchant's life, and make s...

Original Air Date: Oct 11, 2023 The Erdtree is burning.  All other roads have been traveled and it is now time to return to Leyndell, now the Ashen Capital.  It appears most enemies have been buried in ash.  In this episode, we discuss Goldmask and the path to a Party Boy build.  We talk about the Roundtable's end and if Gideon is as horrible as he seems (he is).  And we delve deep into the story...

Original Air Date: Sep 20, 2023 The endgame is near.  Destined death is within our grasp and the only things standing in our way are beastmen, wormface, godskin apostles, banished knights, ancient dragons, modern dragons, a crucible knight, hawks with knives for legs, an elden lord, a fucking badass named Bernahl, a tree sentinel, and the Black Blade.  So, a layup essentially. In this episode, we...

Original Air Date: Jun 28, 2023 Sometimes you really need a hug and it might be because of murder bears holding face puss from a dying fish god man who was the all-star quarterback for the Leyndell Dragons. In this episode, Alexander and Sir Ofnir discuss the lore of Fia and her lovely hugs.  Our pal Godywn has seen better days but if we can just recover the two half centipede cursemarks there mig...

Original Air Date: May 31, 2023 The festival is over! Pack up your tents and find your friends. Rumor has it a something crash landed in Limgrave and it is up to us to find what monstrous zombies, cute silver gloop monsters, and overreaching scientists are below the Lands Between.  Gary Butterfield of Bonfireside Chat joins us in this special episode as we dive deep into the lore of the Nox. Why a...

Original Air Date: Apr 26, 2023 Last time on Elden Dogs, we had just arrived into the Mohgwyn Palace before we ran out of time. Thus, we start this episode discussing the bizarre and extreme relationship of Mohg and his half-brother/husband/baby-man/cocoon roommate.  After departing from that bizarre home situation, we go back to the Altus Plateau to talk about a little green area on the map we di...

Original Air Date: Mar 29, 2023 We have avoided the sewers long enough, and perhaps we judged it too harshly. In this episode, we tackle the Subterranean Shunning Grounds. Your maps have no power here...  We explore the Dung Eater's history as a serial killer, Mohg's illusion, the Great Caravan, and the Lobster Pit. To support our show and get exclusive access to over 75 bonus episodes from Elden...

Original Air Date: Mar 15, 2023 The Elden Dogs finally return! It has been too long, but Tyler needed some extra time to deal with revenants and bubble blowing musicians. This episode finds us going to the most challenging area of the game, The Consecrated Snowfield and Miquella's Haligtree. We discuss the upcoming Shadow of the Erdtree DLC and talk a lot about our favorite set of twins in the gam...

Original Air Date: Jan 25, 2023 The Mountaintops of the Giants is a desolate, frozen hellscape full of angry snails, colossal fingercreepers, and pissed off ice dragons. Not a great vacation destination, but it is lore heavy and full of interesting topics of discussion.  We are joined on this episode by Kole Ross from Bonfireside Chat (and Watch Out For Fireballs, etc.) to discuss Melina's Identit...

Original Air Date: Jan 11, 2023 Our journey has finally led us to the Royal Capital of Leyndell. This was the seat of power and the height of civilization once upon a time. Now, the buildings are sealed with corpse wax, the streets are lousy with bosses, and the carcass of a giant dragon lays across the rooftops.  Elden Dogs is joined by a very special guest, Dom's Roundtable. Dom is a professiona...

Original Air Date: Dec 26, 2022 Together, we will devour the godsssssss! Praetor Rykard had some good ideas.  Let's try Volcano magic.  Maybe the Golden Order is corrupt.  His decision to let a snake eat him though, that might be questionable. The Elden Dogs are joined by the fantastic Jack Packard for this episode.  You might recognize him from Red Letter Media and Escapist Magazine.   A very fun...

Original Air Date: Nov 23, 2022 We're moving on up to the Altus Plateau!  Fall is in the air as well as an insane amount of toxic chemicals (Perfuming bastards). Lots of lore to discuss here as we are on the front door of the Royal Capital. Wormfaces, dancing midsommar women, and the most despised perfumers. To support our show and get exclusive access to over 75 bonus episodes from Elden Dogs and...

Original Air Date: Nov 09, 2022 Deep below the Lands Between is another world. A world of clay men with their bubble magic, bull men with their sick dance moves (and sniper rifles), and ants... lots and lots of ants.  We venture down underground this episode to discuss the Siofra and Ainsel Rivers. Discussions on ancient civilizations and poor business tactics ahead! To support our show and get ex...

Original Air Date: Sept 28, 2022 Festival season is upon us!  Radahn is headlining with Dave Matthews opening!   In this episode, the dogs continue their journey through Caelid.  After exploring the Dragonbarrow and discussing imitation godskin, we arrive at Redmane Castle where we rant about Dave Matthews Band, the Starscourge Radahn, and that the Dung Eater is a flat earther! To support our show...

Original Air Date: Sept 14, 2022 The last place in the world you want to go, Caelid.  It is my belief it was once a beautiful land before it became infested with Scarlet Rot, and giant decaying dogs, and crows, and explodey corpses, and flame chariots, and projectile throwing pests, and asshole trolls.   A lore heavy area.  Despite being a miserable hellish location, we do love it and have a lot t...

Original Air Date: Aug 24, 2022 Raya Lucaria is a fantastic school of learned sorcerers where you can better yourself and expand your knowledge of the stars.  At least it was until the students locked up their headmaster and threw a nonstop rager!  These students are out of control hanging out with pots and abductor virgins, animating dolls with 4 arms, and summoning comically large stones to send...

Original Air Date: Aug 10, 2022 Who gave those lobsters sniper rifles?!   Gideon, the Dung Eater, and Alexander are back to discuss their adventures in Liurnia.  First, we visit Jarburg and admire the beautiful flowers.  Next, we head over to the Village of the Albinaurics and find a dying manmade frog-dude hiding in a bush.  Then, we go to the Carian Royal Manor and try and not get handjobbed.  F...

Original Air Date: Jun 15, 2022 Godrick seems like the kind of guy who has nuts on his truck. It is time for his rule to end!  Join the Elden Dogs as we discuss Godrick the Golden's role in the Shattering and the big girl's blouse. After we figure out just who Godrick is, we go into Stormveil Castle, a dungeon rotting from the inside out. The Dung Eater also does some research into Rule 34's relat...

Original Air Date: May 18, 2022 In the southern end of Limgrave lies the Weeping Peninsula, a happy place where blind girls are abandoned by their fathers who have to go to work.   In this episode, we discuss the Roundtable Hold and its inhabitants before we go through the lands of the Weeping Peninsula.  What are walking mausoleums?  Why are the Minor Erdtrees surrounded by jars?  And are we actu...

Original Air Date: Apr 20, 2022 The fallen leaves tell a story.
