The Blasters & Blades PodcastDespite the grim topic, we had fun chatting about the grimdark genre with an awesome panel. This time we’ve got Abby Goldsmith, Bill Fawcett and Matthew C. Lucas on to talk nerdy with us. We talked about the history of the genre, the themes and all of the iconic properties. Well, we started the discussion but there could be more if you guys are interested! This was a fun interview, so check out this episode. Lend us your eyes and ears, you won't be sorry!! Join us for a fun show! We're just a couple of nerdy Army veterans geeking out on things that go "abracadabra," "pew," "zoom," "boop-beep" and rhyme with Science Fiction & Fantasy.
