Diablo IV (2023) ft. Josh Adkins
Description
We took the highway to hell to explore the world of Sanctuary and the lore of the Diablo video game series. Come get your sprinkling of the deep, rich lore of the Sumerian, Judeo-Christian, and Islamic demons, too! Cullen apologizes to his mom for not having his holy water with him, Hannah kicks herself for never asking Cullen about his experience with exorcists, Josh recounts his harrowing trials in Diablo IV hardcore mode, and we all spend most of the episode stanning Lilith.
Big thanks to Josh for sharing his Diablo knowledge and suggesting we cover this hellishly cool story! Check out Josh on social media: @whatsgoodjosh
