Episode 112: Jonathan D. Feb 14, 2018

Show notes

Hi! Hello! Hey! This week's guest is Jonathan, a religious student that brings a very interesting perspective to the Souls games. It's not every week that we have comparisons of Bloodborne and Dark Souls lore to actual religions, so of course when he emailed me I jumped at the chance to interview him. We sat down to discuss his history with the series, as well as how his religious studies have effected his various playthroughs of the Souls games.

Sanadsk Feb 09, 2018

Show notes

Hello skeletons! Welcome to a special episode of Don't Give Up, Skeleton. Sanadsk is one of the first people on YouTube to start posting videos that show off cut content from Bloodborne, so when I got the opportunity to interview him, I jumped. We had a great conversation, and as you probably know from his videos, he's a very charming and personable guy. Hopefully you'll enjoy this podcast where he talks about his methodology, the unusual charm of the Souls series, and of course, all the cut content he's found. I know I enjoyed recording it!

Episode 111: Liz Feb 07, 2018

Show notes

Hello friends! Welcome to another episode of Don't Give Up, Skeleton. This week's guest is Liz, who is a big gamer. She started out way back when in the PS1 days, but hung up her controller once kids came along. After they grew up a bit, she picked it back up in a big way. After seeing some of Dark Souls 2's character creation, she bought it blind and jumped in. Later, she fell in love with Bloodborne and Dark Souls 1. This is a great episode, y'all, and Liz is a super sweet and nice guest. Enjoy!

Episode 110: Robin Jan 31, 2018

Show notes

Hello skeletons! Welcome back to the show. This week's guest is Robin, who contacted me forever ago and asked to be on the show. Robin has a lot of hours into these games, so we spend quite a bit of time discussing the ins and outs of each one, and also spend quite a bit of time rambling about everything in between. Enjoy the episode, folks!

Episode 109: Scott L. Jan 24, 2018

Show notes

Hi Skeletons! This week's guest is Scott, an extremely nice guy who likes Dark Souls, Armored Core, and Nier. As you might imagine, we talk about all three in this somewhat rambly podcast. Scott also talks about his day job of inspecting satellite imagery to deduce missile activity in North Korea, and how that made him appreciate the way the story is told in Souls and Bloodborne. No, really! #MissileTwitter is here!

Episode 108: Sam from Dovah Design Jan 17, 2018

Show notes

Hello and welcome, friends. This week I sit down with Sam, a cosplayer who is playing through the Souls games for the first time and planning on building an Artorias cosplay. I had never talked to a cosplayer before, so when she emailed me and I saw how crazy good she is at this stuff, I knew I had get her on the show. We talk about designing cosplay, her experience with the Souls games, and a bunch of stuff in between. Be sure to check out the links below!

Episode 107: Wayne Jan 10, 2018

Show notes

Wayne and I have been Tumblr mutuals for some time now, so I was glad to finally get to talk to him about our shared passion. He talks about his experiences with the games, coaching his wife while she plays, and some of the art he's drawn in response to the game. It's a great episode, but of course I say that about every episode, so who can you really trust?

Episode 106: Kris Jan 03, 2018

Show notes

Howdy skeletons! This week Kris makes himself comfortable in the guest chair, and we go through his entire Souls story. Kris emailed me with a subject line "Senior and OCD Souls gamer" so of course I clicked through that. At 50+, I wouldn't consider him a senior, but he took a long break from video games and came to them much later in life, so he has an interesting perspective on the Souls game.

I think y'all are going to enjoy this episode.

Episode 105: Sinclair Lore Dec 27, 2017

Show notes

On this week's episode of Don't Give Up, Skeleton, Sinclair sits down with me to talk about how she got started making lore videos. After a solid 15 minutes of great conversation, I realized I hadn't been recording the dang podcast! After a brief reboot we get back to the topic at hand, and it's a great conversation. She talks about playing Bloodborne for the first time, how making videos has changed her approach to the games, and her plans for the future. Enjoy!

Show notes

This week's guest is Davide, an Italian game designer who has a strong love for Dark Souls 1, and a grudging respect for Dark Souls 2. We sat down to talk about his entire history with the games, and it came out to be a great episode.
