The 8BA Podcast is a casual talk show where we discuss geeky pop culture and relay some of our favorite news of the past week.

QUICKFIRE NEWS

Skyraiders of Abarax. Tracy and Laura Hickman writing a new (third party) sky pirates setting for D&D 5E that will be discovered through magical books and include a “Living Tome System.”

Emmys. WandaVision wins Emmy awards for Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes, Original Music and Lyrics, and Production Design; Mandalorian wins awards for Cinematography, Prosthetic Makeup, Sound Mixing, Special Visual Effects, Stunt Coordination, Music Composition, and Production Design.

Apple vs Epic. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a permanent injunction against Apple to force them to allow developers to use their own payment processors. However, she also ruled that Epic breached their contract, so Apple is within their rights to keep Fortnite off the App Store if they wish.

NBA 2k22. Jake from State Farm is included in the game’s open-world area in front of a State Farm merch store. Your character can have a cringe-worthy conversation where they’re excited to talk to him. And be able to buy merch from him.

Hawkeye. Trailer released for series coming November 24th.
