Final Fantasy Fan Fest w/ Victor & Friends

Victor is back from Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest in Anaheim and he brought a lot of thoughts and even more interviews from listeners, friends of the show, friends of himself, and new friends! Look forward to appearances from Harper Jay, Fusionx, CrystAAHHL, and many more! It's an honourary episode of Sharlayan Dropouts as Victor and Nadia discuss what they're excited about from the announcements of EverCold, and why the Blood God has the best community around. Look, I know the sound on this one might be off in some spots; I made a lot of work for myself. But I hope you can forgive some sound quality for what I think is a wonderful cross-section of our community. I had a wonderful time making this episode and I hope you enjoy listening whether you're a Final Fantasy XIV or XI player or not.
