  • The Fabio Druid

    The Fabio Druid
    Mar 25 2026

    In the wake of recent bugs and balance shakeups, WWG has also dropped new ancestries for the Druid and Monk! Join DblDubz, Filtrophobe, and Tuff as they break down some of the wild new builds popping up in the community before turning their attention to the titular tree-hugging trendsetter – the Fabio (elf) druid.

    Bug updates and WWYD make their usual appearances, and despite community events hitting a bit of a lull, the crew still manages to spend a full 35 minutes closing out the show… so you’ll probably want to stick around for that.

    Or don’t. Thanks for listening.

  • Sparks and Recreation 97: Queue Carnage with Blinding Powder

    Sparks and Recreation 97: Queue Carnage with Blinding Powder
    Mar 11 2026

    Bouncing back from a buggy recap episode, the crew returns to the SS Sparks & Rec only to discover a couple more bugs still lingering in the hold. Also among the stowaways are a pair of new cards that have slipped into the Dungeons Promos market deck, along with perhaps the stealthiest change of all – a sneaky buff to War Blessing. The main topic of the show centers on Tuff’s tear through the queue with the latest meta menace (Elf Thief) following the most recent balance update.

    And of course, all your other favorite segments. Thanks for listening.
