Fire up your warp drives because we’re outrunning the rebels to deliver to YOU what they’re after: a podcast about one of the most popular roguelikes of all time: FTL Faster Than Light. We are lucky to be joined by our good friend Woody Ciskowski from the Ultra64 / Wii-Universe podcast (https://www.ultra64podcast.com/) to talk about how giant alien spiders are no joke.
