Hot Chat, Cold Names | The Grinding Gear Podcast #77
Beau Schwartz returns to the Podcast. Now having long completed his Diablo 4 quest for statue fandom, we play a little game we like to call Hot TAKES with the help of the live chat. We also discuss Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (spoiler free), Helldivers, State of MMOs and streaming life.

Final FOMO | The Grinding Gear Podcast #76
Garrett and Kyle both return from a Florida Disney weekend, no relation, with a pile of hot Monday news. After a thorough park review lacking of expert opinion, Garrett feels a great pull towards the water cooler of FF7 Rebirth. Elden Ring DLC is about to plow every release in the summer out of its way. Larian’s good deeds lead to Kyle's paranoia. And why is there a Borderlands movie? All this and more.

Queueing for Hell | The Grinding Gear Podcast #75
The Ministry of Truth has declared, Helldivers 2 is good y'all. You may have heard about the newest internet darling. Garrett and Kyle share the sentiment even if it did rain on their parade. And rain it did all over the renaissance fair. X-Men 97 is coming back in its Fox Kids glory. All the consoles are dead?!

The Final Grill with Jesse Cox | The Grinding Gear Podcast #74
Jesse Cox returns for the final grilling before the end of Endwalker. The test is stacked, the questions are hard and our memories are shit. Better than most? Maybe. Are there dragons in the Crystal Tower? Who has cloud hair? What characters are missing? What happens in patch content given the meta knowledge of the launcher? Jesse leaves no stone unturned, while Garrett and Kyle loose the stones.

Obviously with Taliesin | The Grinding Gear Podcast #73
We’re cross-aisle, breaking down barriers, and having a lovely time doing it. On this week’s episode, Taliesin, half of Taliesin and Evitel, joins the show to discuss content creation, Final Fantasy 14 story, and WoW’s pursuits of that story. Taliesin streamed FF14 at the height of the “exodus” and had quite the journey. There’s no stopping this storytime.
Customer Reviews
Great show! Funny, informative, and I don’t miss an episode!
I’ve listened to all the A-move shows (StarCraft Episode 1, checking in), and loved ‘em all! Garrett and Kyle are directly responsible for me spending $100’s on Blizzard games. Now they’ve moved to a format that enables them to cover a wider breadth of content, and I love it. Keep up the great work, guys!
Update
Too much yelling and cartoony voices. Spend too much time describing store items. The whole Show has the vibe of a YouTube thumbnail.
Like banter with friends
As an enjoyer of games, movies, books and good banter, this is a great listen for my work commute! It’s like every day at my house and my conversations with my husband and I love every minute of it! Catch them live on You Tube for a very wholesome experience! Great duo!
