Here is the next part of the loooong discussion between myself, Jack Graham, and the excellent Holly Boson (@fireh9lly) in which Holly explains Final Fantasy VII to me, a total novice, in pitiless detail. In this episode we delve into the history and politics of sequels and remakes, and fandom as a way of constructing the self. Content warnings apply because some potentially troubling issues are mentioned. Part 4 will be posted in advance of publication for my Patreon backers. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4196618&fan_landing=true

Here is the next part of the loooong discussion between myself, Jack Graham, and the excellent Holly Boson (@fireh9lly) in which Holly explains Final Fantasy VII to me, a total novice, in pitiless detail. This episodes moves on from preparatory context to the basics of the game and its history, Holly's textual approach to the game, and such subjects as Cloud Strife, fandom, shipping, etc. Content warnings apply from this point on because some potentially troubling issues are mentioned. Part 3 will be posted in advance of publication for my Patreon backers. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4196618&fan_landing=true

The first part of a new, multi-part Shabcast in which my brilliant friend, writer and podcaster Holly Boson (@fireh9lly), takes me on a journey into a realm of which I was previously entirely ignorant, the complex labyrinth that is the Final Fantasy series of video games, especially Final Fantasy VII. This first episode is an hour long and is just the preparatory context she needed to give me to set me up for the actual trip. My Patreon backers got advance access to this and already have advance access to Part 2. Consider pledging me a dollar a month here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=4196618&fan_landing=trueIDSG Ep76, on D.W. Griffith's three-hour silent epic of hate Birth of a Nation, will be up soon. Hopefully tomorrow.

The Pex Lives lads have returned after tragically losing an episode. They chat elections (you know, Solihull's by-election, the recent gains made by Plaid Cymru) and lockdowns and the worst (?) serial of Doctor Who, which James picked cos he fancied some Troughton and did no further research.
