Welcome back to the Goblin Lore Podcast as we are once again joined by Michelle Rapp (aka KilnFiendPotter). Michelle was the first guest of the Goblin Lore Podcast way back in episodes 8 and 9 when she discussed the Color Pie and Art with us! We welcomed her back as we were struck by the discussion in this article she wrote for Card Kingdom. In Part 1 we discussed her cats, the before times (pre-COVID), and Jace the Mindsculptor and now in Part 2 we pick up that discussion with looking at a more recent character Lukka (from Ikoria) as well as talking about the Real World Implications of Toxic Masculinity.

 

Again we would like to state that Black Lives Matter (with a link to where you can offer support both monetary and not).

 

We also are proud to have partnered with Grinding Coffee Co a black, LGBT+ affiliated and owned, coffee business that is aimed at providing coffee to gamers. You can read more about their mission here. You can use our partner code for discounted coffee!

As promised, we plan to keep these Mental Health Links available moving forward too. For general Mental Health the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has great resources for people struggling with mental health concerns as well as their families. We also want to draw attention to this article on stigma from NAMI's site.
