Great JRPG podcast

I love JRPGs. They have been my favorite kind of game to play since was a young child, so of course I love the show! I heard about the show from one of Taylor’s YouTube videos a few weeks back, and have been going back and listening to a bunch of your old casts. In some of the episodes you talk about having a discord channel. I think I found it online but when I go into discord and put in the info it tells me I don’t have an invite. I am not too familiar with discord or PCs in general (I mostly play games on console) but I was wondering if I could get an invite to your discord server? (If you’re still using it) my info is cornballer#4771
Thank you guys so much for making an awesome podcast!

Awesome Podcast

I began to listen to this podcast a few years ago and binged the back episodes. This podcast is my favorite Jrpg Podcast, the hosts just give you that group of friends vibe. I later joined the discord to get a friendly welcome and met some other awesome people. If you want a comfortable podcast about Jrpgs and want to join a great community. Listen to some episodes, subscribe, and join the discord. You won’t regret it.

Terrific podcast.

It’s great to be able to listen to people talk about the type of games that I am interested in especially when I am bored at work. Give this one a listen if you are into RPGs of the Japanese variety. Guest appearances by Shadow Elite would bump this up to six stars if I were able, but rules are rules. Thanks guys.
