This week, we finally get around to reviewing Greg Locke's self-aggrandizing documentary about all the demons that possessed us into making this episode.

Comments

Denise Huston

Eli ELI We need to know your Tumblr, ffs!

Kate

Markus Nävergård

Aint Greg lockes existence proof against the existence of a loving god?

baldwise

Demon of religion for these guys is specifically a burn on non-charismatic Christian churches, since Greg would say they don't have the Holy Spirit.

Markus Nävergård

Disney going " do it you fucker, show some clip, we will bury you in every sense of that word"

Markus Nävergård

Also. Greg Locke must be getting an annyrism that DnD has become super mainstream again

Markus Nävergård

If you get punished for what your ancestors did, then what is the fucking point of trying to apeas god?

Markus Nävergård

There are no Lego Archeopteryx. i should know i own multiple of each lego dinosaur that has come out.

DataAngel

Think maybe he meant "mortification of the flesh" instead of "crucifixion of the flesh". Which is basically his way of telling us he's a masochist who likes to whip himself.

Another Craig

Okay I had to look it up, and... fuck Napoleon for abolishing Decimalized Time and the associated French Republican Calendar.

Clockworkk

“If your body’s a temple, where do the demons get in? The courtyard.” My drink came out of my fucking nose when Noah said that. That phrase will now live in my head for all eternity.

Matt

Eli getting into playing pretend and Locke getting into Jesus are like the two halves of Two-Face.

Markus D

We are goldfish in God's fishbowl? Sounds like God is a bad fishkeeper. Goldfish need large, well-filtered tanks or ponds, depending on the breed.

Starshark

Okay, when Noah says in the intro about the Great Golgoroth (sp?), my brain immediately conjured the Globgogabgolab (I don't care if I got that one wrong). My brain is broken by GAM.

Caldwell

I think by "crucify his flesh" he means "putting aside the material world in pursuit of spiritual things" He's saying crucify because he wants to say "kill/eliminate" but it also brings to mind "Jesus" and " sacrifice," which he probably also likes He's saying flesh like "material/sinful/real world/Mr. Worldly Wiseman from Pilgrim's Progress," as in the opposite of spirit/spiritual things Translating from Christian to English is a skill I rarely get to use, yay lol

The DinosaurDave

Im so glad yall like those lego Dinosaurs i sent you last year. Heaths one is unique as no one else anywhere, even me, has one like it

Markus Nävergård

so where did you get an archeopteryx in lego because there are no offical ones

Gmork

Wow -- expected a lot more backlash on Elden Ring. I mean, I played it through, but his criticisms are totally valid.

Barry Anderson

The “voices in my head, that’s a demon” comment hit hard. My cousin was a brother in the Catholic Church and had voices in his head. His priest kept telling him to pray them away until he suicided. That was my last straw with that god person

Amanda McGuirt

Oh no BOTH my grandfathers and great-grandfathers were Masons

Someday Sera

ehh...much as I love souls games, I feel the open world structure REALLY hurts it, I really didn't enjoy it either. Found myself just wanting to go back to Dark Souls 3 or Bloodborne, the hub with spokes world design those use feels so much better to me because it scales with player strength in a more direct fashion, so I didn't constantly feel like I'd wandered into an endgame area with an early game character like I did with ER. Keep meaning to go back to it but, too much other stuff to play at the moment.

Someday Sera

Given when this movie came out I'd imagine Locke's beef with disney was related to The Owl House, which was finishing up around that time, and is about witches, and very lgbtqia+ friendly. (hence my avatar) It was also around the time lightyear got in trouble for a lesbian kiss in the background.

Aaron Irvin

We know you're in there Greg, put the Barbies down and come out in Jesus name...

Aaron Irvin

No Way! My brother is named Mason!

Aaron Irvin

The game is... Fun? I enjoyed it, but Noah's not wrong, it hurt.

Aaron Irvin

I think he means piercing his nipples.

Aaron Irvin

I mean... There's the Holocaust and baby cancer but yeah Greg Locke is probably on the list too.

KeepingThePlatesSpinning

The follow up of “where is the courtyard of your body also made me howl. It’s near the bush of course. But still

Clockworkk

I DID THE SAME THING.

Markus Nävergård

Owl house was the best. also the fact the bad guy was a religious fanatic who despite being a mold demon professed his humanity.

Kitsunelaine

"Drink Greg Locke's Coffee Order" should be a Maytreon goal

Maddie

There's a lot of valid criticism to be made for it but it's always been very hard to criticize it in public places. The fans will jump on you and it's just not worth it. I don't think it'd even review that well if reviewers didn't have to be concerned about harassment or even their jobs for giving it worse marks.

Markus Nävergård

when Eli calls someones coffee order insane. it is insane

J. Vizzle

Just a note on the discussion you guys had about GrEg LoCkE saying the DeMoN oF ReLiGiOn is the problem with Christianity. I have experience with this particular bit of insanity from my days as a fundamentalist Christian. He isn't talking about other religions, he is talking about HIS religion, he's just too damn to understand anything. What he means by that statement is, "cHrIsTiAnItY iS a ReLaTiOnShIp, nOt A ReLiGiOn." It's utter nonsense, totally meaningless and precisely the kind of inane drivel I'd expect from GrEg LoCKe...

J. Vizzle

I come from a loonnnnggg line of Mason's too, my grandfather and step-grandfather we both "Worshipful Masters" and the head honchos of their respective lodges in Portland, OR and Billings, MT/Spokanistan, WA. I am doomed!

J. Vizzle

Ugh... this story is WAY too common, it should be a fucking crime. Right before I became an apostate (a title I am proud of) I was going to this UBER conservative, super fundamentalist church that also ran a Christian drug and alcohol recovery service called, "The Ranch." Their entire treatment program consisted of, "pRaY tHe DrUgS aWaY," and "OnLy BabY JeBuS cAn DeLiVeR YoU fRoM aDdIcTiOn." Needless to say, their success/recovery rate was literally 0%. The other vile thing they often did was demand that anyone taking meds for any psychiatric/psychological condition quit taking those meds cold turkey and rely on "ThE BaBy JeBuS" to heal their anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, etc... there have been more than a couple people who have taken their own lives as a result. It's fucking infuriating and SHOULD be criminal. This idiotic policy of making the people attending their recovery program stop taking their meds actually led to the pastor being shot like 6-8 times by a man who followed their advice and ended up stopping his meds, having a schizophrenic crisis, shooting the pastor (he survived, which of course they credit god for, not the EMTs, doctors and other healthcare workers) and after shooting the pastor, he drove to Washington DC and was arrested near the White House while trying to kill the President who he thought was an alien. It was an absolute tragedy all around.

J. Vizzle

I hate that I also possess this skill... 😟

J. Vizzle

We could be friends.

Markus D

I KNEW it was about the "relationship" bullshit!

Markus D

I apparently quit listening to the episode before getting to it the first time. I think it's possibly FromSoftware's best story/lore, but I do think it suffers from feeling like their first open world game. I still have tons of fun with it because the combat is really tight and it feels like the first FromSoftware game where a faith build is truly viable.

Markus D

I think there are totally valid criticisms of Elden Ring, but none of them are really what Noah said. The "first boss you die to" thing isn't bad because the plot just... keeps going. It doesn't make you fight it until you die. Elden Ring is the first Souls-like with a whole tutorial AREA, and it tells you the button for dodges—otherwise you're just supposed to figure out when to dodge, like every other game. Nor do I think that the plot is nonsense, though I will give him the fact that Melina is a very uneven character who we don't know enough about despite our journey hinging on her. There's also not a pirate girl asking you to get mushrooms? Nobody asks you to get mushrooms. Some of the quests are obtuse, but the issue is FromSoftware connecting progression of them to your main progression in a way that doesn't work well in an open world, not that there's a load of pointless fetch quests or something.

Clockworkk

The Owl House is easily in my top three animated shows, I’ve binged and rebinged it, and it’s just as good every time. And if it made lil Greggy Locke get his bigot undies in a wad, then it’s even better.

Space Conspiracy

I live in Knoxville and didn't know that happened so you better believe it threw me for a loop to hear about this for the first time on this podcast. Local drag queens, I hope you are doing well 🙏

Oxford Comma is Mandatory

I think a Maytreon goal should be Noah has to beat the first boss of Dark Souls 3.
