  • Intelligent Analyses

    Too many podcasts suffer from negativity and shallow insights. Not so for Drew and Ira - FF Weekly gives fantastic insight into the stories, themes, characters, and politics of the various Final Fantasy games while showing appreciation for every aspect from the art to the music, the gameplay to the design, and everything in between. With backgrounds in philosophy and literature respectively, these two brothers do it like nobody else and you really need to check them out.

  • A Great Podcast for FF Fans

    Anytime I get a new episode of this podcast, I start it almost immediately. The guys are just laid back, talking about their favorite franchise in RPGs, and I more often than not agree with their takes on stuff, and even when I don’t know the topic, like the early games, they’re still fun to listen to. They also talk about stuff like how various games take inspiration from or have inspired other things, and I appreciate that, too.
