Today we're doing Halo to celebrate the release of Halo: Reach onto PCs! Can you think of a better way to catch some accidental downloads now that Halo is hype again? This episode features space politics, s...

Lore Boys are back, with more hot, topical, very current lore and fake history for you to consume, as you MUST! You see, Gex loves his T.V. shows, and he teaches us the valuable lesson all the way back in 1999 that television was always doomed to fail, and you now must digest podcasts, the clearly superior multimedia format. We're visiting all the channels in this Gex episode, like the cemetery ch...

Welcome back to Lore Boys! Shucks wouldn't you know it we're doing another request, this one coming from the far flung and vast corn fields from some state where people get named "Woody". This week we're doing Armoured Core!

We have returned following PornHub related stomach flues and are happy to tell you about more, and more sweet Lore. Today (which is now officially Wednesday) wee will be discussing how great it is to engage with new cultures, and how it never ever goes wrong. Today we're covering the First Contact War from Mass Effect. We'll learn that humans are ambitious and stubborn, Turians are quick on the tr...

Lore Boys here, got your fill of Nintendo's latest hot IP, and it's a spooky one at that! Learn all about the mysterious E. Gad, about the Boos and the relatively peaceful lifestyle they lived alone in a forest, their uh... carpentry skills? We have all the Luigi's mansion lore your body could crave, so dive on in, bring a blank canvas, and let's get ghostbustin'! As always, we super appreciate yo...

Lore Boys are back, with the hot new lore for you. By popular request, we're finally taking succumbing to peer pressure and taking up smoking... we're talking about Dorohedoro!

Today (or whenever) we're going back to one of the most important series of all time, Half-Life and it's villains the Universal Union or Combine. Today we will learn how the Combine facilitate the three labours of grain harvesting, steal oceans and augment alien insects with guns or huge fake breasts. Jamie makes a modest liv...

Lore Boys here with some hot car action. It's Twisted Metal lore, and the story behind the lost endings of the first game. Horribly produced, painful to watch, poorly acted live-action cutscenes for each driver in the original Twisted Metal game. We're getting nitty-gritty with the game some torqued tin, so hop on in for the ride! As always, we super appreciate you listening, and hope that if you...

We Lore Boys are back for the 100th time! We're celebrating 100 episodes by ignoring some of our special episodes and remastering and revisiting the first episode, The Legend of Zelda and the speculative Goddess of Time.

Hello Lore Folk and keep your hands where I can see them. We're diving into one of Warcraft's favourite tropes the enchanted sword. Today we're doing the Ashbringer. Ethan can't be with us since we gave him the wrong time, but that won't stop us from touching mysterious crystals and having our hands burned off. Learn in this episode why having a favourite child is the right way to raise a child, b...

Ah we see you have returned, well since you're here we might as well continue the story of some unfortunate siblings from Magic the Gathering.

Hey Lore Folk, the Lore Boys are back (at least 2/3 of us) with more Magic: The Gathering lore! We're continuing our harrowing tale of a young barbarian girl who wants nothing but to help her ailing brother and to free her people from the evils of an ancient artifact which, so far at least, has brought nothing but death and destruction and grief. Kamahl, for his part, has given up the Mirari for n...

Hello and welcome Lore Folk, the Lore Boys are back but are not long for this world. Jamie is still in Mexico so it's another conference call, but that's probably for the best as we are covering the corrupted blood incident from World of Warcraft. We certainly don't want to get too close to each other for this one as it could mean our certain doom. Come along and learn about how fake germs grabbed...

The Lore Boys are back and this time they're in it for the money.

Good morning, afternoon or evening Lore Folk. We return once again with more Magic the Gathering lore! Today (or whenever you're listening, I don't care) we continue the unfortunate story of Kamahl and his search for the ironically cursed Mirari. We discuss his return to the blood pits, his journey home and his eventual attack on his sister which transformed her into Phage the Untouchable. Many ol...

Hey Lore Folk, today we've moved away from fake history about fake people and changed to real history about real people telling stories about fake monsters. This week we will take you through the multiple eras of Godzilla's film production in honour of the newest film; King of the Monsters! Today we learn about the horrors of nuclear war, pollution, asthma and transferring your soul into your son'...

Lore Boys back, after another hiatus brought about by unforeseen circumstances. Who'd have thought three sad boys would have such a hard time meeting up for several hours a week to do something they all love? Not us, that's for sure. Regardless, we're here with some more Magic: the Gathering history in what will be another multipart series. We're returning to Dominaria, though we're way ahead of t...

Hello and welcome Lore Folk, this week we're building towards something great. This week we're building Lego! That's right, we're getting into the deep sometimes convoluted and Mask obsessed lore of Bionicle. We learn about how some tiny people crashed their creator spirit into the ocean, the raw deal of being a magic robot angel and that giant enemy crabs can never be stopped. Pete misses his toy...

Well the Lore Boys are back to finish off Arthas's story. You know the tragic story of a rich, beautiful prince who decides the best way to save all his subjects is to kill all his subjects? Yeah, we're real beat up over his loss too. Still a compelling story as we some of Warcraft's heavy hitters, like Illidan Stormrage, Sylvanas Windrunner, Kel'Thuzad, Uther Lightbringer, and more! Hop into the...

Lore Boys are back, this time we're getting pumped for World of Warcraft Classic with some Warcraft Lore. We're talking the Lich King, Arthas, Jaina, Uther, Muradin, and all the the crazy antics they all got up to. Who found that pesky Frostmourne, and why was Arthas so excited about it? Whose knees get broken, and whose kidneys get destroyed? We'll learn about Arthas's signature weapon, the brick...

Lore Boys are here once more with the juiciest video game backstory podcast in town. This week we're riding the hype of Mortal Kombat 11 to bring you the lore for MK1, 2, 3, 9, and a lead-in to MKX and MK11. Jamie couldn't be here this week as we had to send him to mine some electricity and anime for the good of the podcast, but Peter and Ethan soldier on to wade through gore and viscera and bring...

The Lore Boys are back with another episode. Season three is shaping up to be real hum-dinger with this week's Fire Emblem episode. Meet all your favourite characters, like Marth, Roy, Ike, Chrom, Robin, and Lucina. At least, meet them as far as we mention all of them, but we do go in depth with Marth lore! It's the history or Archanea in sweet and savoury podcast form. We talk about the creation...

Lore Boys are back with more tasty lore. In case you missed it, our previous Titanfall episode covers a bit of the backstory to Kuben Blisk's Apex Games, and why all these quirky characters find themselves at the end of the known universe with nothing but and endless rain of firepower and a thirst for the blood of other athletes... a lot like Sochi, I'd imagine. But today's episode is all about th...
