Side Quest: Swords Sheathed, Pencils Down

What this episode covers

Things got soberingly real for our favorite fantasy franchise this month with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) choosing to go on strike and fight for a better deal for its members. Yet, while writers and studios may be at the heart of this work stoppage, the effects are being felt all throughout Hollywood. In this new bonus episode, we lay out the broad strokes of what the writers are striking over, explaining what sort of impact it’s having now on the industry and could possibly have in the future, and what all of this likely means for The Witcher. And yes, we made sure to down some whiskey before hitting record. It IS still us, after all.
