Better late than never, we hope. Before these episodes are entirely irrelevant we figured it would be best to put these up uncut and unedited. What it lacks in audio quality it makes up for in guests. Join DrFidget along with US nats winner KingofKongs and runner up Human, benji, dimsun, and Gavin’s keyboard right after nationals. Then stick around for a lowkey post worlds wrap up with Shiloh, JTK, Rina, and Chalkey.

Podcast editing is no picnic, but recording echos, hard drive failures, and PC blue screens can’t stop The Lava Pool. They can delay it quite a bit though. Nonetheless, Dr Fidget is joined by JTK, Zach, Shiloh, and Human to recap regs in the first half of this delayed podcast.
