Lore Boys

It's 2018 and we're bringing planking back! The Lore Boys are here with the (temporary) conclusion to the lore of Bungie's Destiny. We're wrapping up Destiny the first as we wait for Destiny 2's expansions before diving into that. Today's topics include but are not limited to: the Vex in an FBI van eating donuts and drinking boiled milk; advice from Biggie Smalls on leading the Fallen; is doritos...

Wow Destiny sure is great. Yeah, forget all that stuff I said last week about it being overpriced and full of fluff, we're back with more Destiny Lore! We're talking about races and darkness and a people that are also sponges. This episode has termites with feng shui, some mild scuttling, and we pitch the slogan, "Guns, not Glasses". So come join us! Have a shot of tequila and really let those ten...

Wow well sometimes life throws you curveballs and sometimes those curveballs are blessings... or something like that. We're back! 1/3 of us couldn't make it due to unforeseen ungodly drunkenness, but the rest of the Lore Boys have made it out to bring you all the latest in Warframe Lore. Warframe is a game about the future, and space, so we talk some about that. Space hillbillies, space samurai, s...

The Lore Boys are back in action after an oh-so-long hiatus between seasons. Luckily we put that time to good use, and have been hard at work to improve not only our show, but ourselves as well. Peter learned to juggle, James caught a record-breaking fish, and Ethan has been hard at work decyphering the message hidden in Teddy Roosevelt's moustache's shadow. With season 2's inauguration, we've com...

Well sometimes you just gotta look back and really pat yourself on the back for everything you've done. The Lore Boys are officially 20 episodes in, and we've taken all our best memes and put them in one big fishing pot to tell you guys about ourselves and everyone's favourite Italian plumber. This episode we're each taking some of our favourite moments of Mario canon and we'll each take a short t...

Lore Boys are here, to tell a couple Tales from Toril in the most relatable way possible; in Lindsey Lohan terms, of course. We're here to tell you all about how and why a world of fantasy and adventure was created, and maybe a bit about why so many geeks like us have been playing since the 70s. We talk about Steve Aoki creating the universe, the benefits of pouring beer out on your crotch, how Mr...

What if everything was cold forever? The Lore Boys have taken a break from worrying about the heat death of the Universe to bring you another episode of hilarity-filled video game lore! Today's topic: the Crash Bandicoot series. That's right, everyone's favorite lizard -- ehm, I mean, marsupial -- makes his Lore Boys debut, and we're handing out pizza fliers with this game-box! We talk real possum...

Lore Boys here, with another lore-filled action adventure! We're talking Whale Bones and grandmothers made out of rats; it's the Dishonored franchise's turn! We ask what if whales had treads?

Make sure to check out the episode to find out, and once you're done, head over to iTunes to l...

Lore Boys are back, from Bikini Atoll, with the second installment of the Diablo franchise's lore. We go full Griswold in the Gay Village and out-debate the devil with a crystal in our forehead. As usual, we're asking the hard hitting questions, such as: If your parents divorce over whether or not to use you as a slave in their army, is it really your fault? Is everything Nick Cannon says canon? I...

The Lore Boys are back, if a little late, with a brand new feature-length full of funnies and facts. This time we're talking about Blizzard's Diablo series! All the know-how you need to defeat the three Greater Evils (and maybe a couple lesser ones for good measure) can be found inside. We talk about a marionette centipede -- like the human centipede, but with puppets -- the superhuman who used hi...

The Lore Boys are back with a lesson on cliffhangers GONE WRONG. It's the Lore Boys Half Life episode, coming out in honor of the release of Half Life 3 (well, as much as we'll ever get). So hop in and listen while we talk about our slugs and the end of the fanboy world. Never has such a titanic hype train come off the rails so spectacularly. Make sure once you've listened to the episode to head t...

Hey there Lorefolk! Poolside, from Plano Texa, the Lore Boys are back with another episode, this time tackling interspecial relations as we talk about Starcraft. After a long day of punching rocks, what better way to sit back, relax, and learn about keybinds. Hardhitting topics this time around: illegal downloads of Protoss. Is setting up 4Chan really good? If I eat a human, do I gain the power of...

The Lore Boys are back; this time, with 100% more guest speakers. Nnamdi Wosu has joined the team while Peter's still away on vacation, and he's here to tell us all we don't know about Street Fighter! This week we'll be suppressing our good sides, pumping up our Psycho Energy, and picking fights with strangers! We talk about Japanese race relations, about plenty of stereotypes, and how you can't j...

Back with another Lore Boys podcast, we're talking this week about Metroid Prime. With lots of speculation around Metroid Prime 4, we decided to dive in and tackle some of the tougher questions about the series. Questions like does Samus ever use her ice beam to cool her drinks? Why did they name the planet Phaaze but the goo stuff Phazon? What would a cob of corn think of all this?   If you...

Live from Nunavut, the Lore Boys are here to bring you the 8th grade science fair featuring hyper-advanced alien technology that is Deus Ex and Deus Ex Invisble War. We'll hit all sorts of topics, including lizards, and what they really are. It's almost impossible for us to discuss the illuminati and not discuss lizards, apparently. We can't help it that they're so mysterious, with their scales, t...

So check and explore the world of Pandora and at least one of its moons with us!   If you have the time, le...

On this week's episode the Boys talk about eagles abducting babies, unwinnable wars, the sinking of New Zealand, and special gravel which grants eternal life. The topic is TF2, a first-person shooter with probably the zaniest lore we've ever seen. It raises plenty of questions like, "if you don't have a mustache are you really Australian?" and "how would you deal with a scourge of eagles plaguing...
