Dragon Quest FM

BJ Keeton and Austin King

Let's talk about and obsess over Dragon Quest! The 35-year-old JRPG series has its hooks in us, and we're okay with that. Austin played through the whole series in a single year and is blogging about it, and Beej is discovering and adoring the series right on his heels. From character spotlights to deep dives into mainline games and more, we hang out each week to rave about Dragon Quest and celebrate the series! Like all Geek to Geek shows, we try to keep a clean rating. DQ is about fun for us, and if you can play DQ with your kiddos, you can listen to our Dragon Quest podcast with them too!

    What's that in up in the sky? It is a flying whale? An airship? No! It's Austin riding the slowest flying mount in JRPG history--the Godbird (also known as the Everbird). We talk about a lot this week, including travel times, the end of the game, finding more orbs, and retracing your steps. It's a fun time!
