In this episode, I tell an original story.

Steve has beaten the Great Dragon. He has conquered raids and raided fortresses. He has accomplished all his goals but has nothing left to strive for. Fortunately, the monotony is broken when he finds an unknown and unexpected artifact.

Hope you enjoy!

In this 700K plays special, I tell two enthralling tales of Minecraft history created and submitted by listeners Anna and Lucas. The first is of how the End became the broken and barren expanse that you see today. The second is of the Nether's colonisation and it's subsequent disasters.

A thanks to Chase and Sebastian, who submitted their stories! The episode begins with the story of the Beast, AKA the Warden, who lived in a world of harmony. A child's mistakes unfortunately put that to an end. The second tale focuses on a player's exploration of a stronghold, and what happens when they reach the End.

A huge thanks to Liam for submitting his story!

In this episode I tell two stories: one by me; one by Liam. The first story tells the tale of a group who get a little more than they asked for on their adventures. The second story is by me, in which I keep up the trend of being incompetent in naming my stories, and tell the tale of "Steve is Lonely."

Which is the better pet in Minecraft: an axolotl or a cat? In this podcast short, I offer my experiences and opinions. A podcast short is just a YouTube short, but better, because there's no video :)
