Hello skellies! This week's gues is Joel Corelitz, a video game composer and huge Souls fan.

Episode 175: Laura May 01, 2019

Show notes

Today is a very special episode! For a long time now, the idea of doing a "Dark Souls Widows" podcast, where I would interview the partners of Souls addicts who aren't as much into the games to get their perspective on the series. This is almost that, but instead of me interviewing a guest, I asked my wife to host the show and interview a special guest: Laura Stardust! That's right, we got the star of Paddy Does a OneBro to come onto the show and talk about her view of the series. Enjoy!
