Hello skeletons! This week on the podcast, we are joined by Judson Cowan, who you might know if you've been following Souls stuff for awhile. Besides making some great videogame soundtracks (like Rogue Legacy 2), he's also the creator of Laudate Solis, the most perfect map of Dark Souls 1 that has ever existed. Until his new one comes out, anyway. We talk about his history with the games, the magic of making maps, and more. Enjoy!

Welcome back, skellies! This week's guest is KarlGerm, a Souls fan and speedrunner, and more importantly, and all around good dude.

Heya Skeletons! It's been awhile, but I'm back with another episode of DGUS Remastered, the series where I catch up with old guests from the podcast, and see what they're up to. Today it's Zach, the writer behind Lordran & Beyond, back to talk about his experiences in the last four years, as well as his Kickstarter project for collecting all of his webcomics into a physical book. Check out the links below!
On a personal note, I just want to say that I hope all of you are doing ok in this whirlwind of a year. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay skeletons.

Hello skellies! We're back with another DGUS Remastered episode, this time with my buddy Paolo. He was one of the most passionate Souls fans I interviewed, way back in 2016, and it was an absolute delight getting to catch up with him and talk about how the last four years have changed in terms of our appreciation for the games and the media around them. Enjoy!

NEW EPISODE OUT OF NOWHERE!
My good friend Jason Killingsworth is Kickstarting a new edition of You Died, the book he and Keza MacDonald wrote about Dark Souls back in 2016. You Died is a celebration of Dark Souls, and contains stories, anecdotes, and lore about the game. It was an inspriation for this podcast, and I'm not just saying that because I'm in it, I promise! Jason brought his designer, Andrew Hind, to the podcast, and the three of us talk about the book, the game, and of course, the community. Enjoy!

Hello skellies! If you haven't been following me on Twitter or on the recently closed Patreon, I have some news. My original plan after putting DGUS on hiatus was to begin recording and releasing "remastered" episodes, in which I'd re-interview some of the original guests of the show and see how things have changed. I recorded one of these, which you are hopefully listening to right now, and since then have decided to shut down the Patreon. I don't have any direct plans to record more of these, but if I do they'll be publicly available on this feed.
All of that aside, the guest is my friend Sean, who releases content under the moniker The Lore Hunter. Sean is a lore junkie, as you might imagine, and in the three years since we recorded the first time his life has gone through many changes. He has more kids, he bought a house...the usual stuff. Also: his Souls content began to get way more popular than usual. Popularity is a good thing right? Not always. As Sean tells us in this episode, sometimes it can lead to all sorts of unusual places.
Enjoy the episode friends!

Hello skellies! This week's gues is Joel Corelitz, a video game composer and huge Souls fan. We sat down early on a Sunday morning to talk about his journey through these games, starting with a rough start and ending with, well, him appearing on this podcast because he's into the games that much! Be sure to stay after the credits for a song he wrote from the game Gorogoa (which is gorgeous and you should all play it immediately), and check out the links for more of his work.

Today is a very special episode! For a long time now, the idea of doing a "Dark Souls Widows" podcast, where I would interview the partners of Souls addicts who aren't as much into the games to get their perspective on the series. This is almost that, but instead of me interviewing a guest, I asked my wife to host the show and interview a special guest: Laura Stardust! That's right, we got the star of Paddy Does a OneBro to come onto the show and talk about her view of the series. Enjoy!
