  • Episode 57 - Upperhive Lorekeepers. Ran Lo and Ulanti.
    Nov 7 2025

    Greetings, scummers!

    In this episode, the boys pull on their finest rags and sneak into Hive Primus’ upper spires — where the air’s filtered, the drinks are poisoned, and the nobles wear more jewels than sense. We’re talkin’ House Ulanti and House Ran Lo — two Great Houses that prove the real bloodshed on Necromunda isn’t in the sump… it’s at the dinner table.


    From Ulanti’s glittering court of assassins and arranged marriages sharper than any power blade, to Ran Lo’s merchant princes, who’ll sell you your own lungs back if there’s a profit in it — these two families show that money and murder are often just different departments in the same business.


    Expect whispers of poison rings, hive-wide banking scams, and the kind of fashion statements that could get you killed in the underhive. The boys break down the lore, the rivalries, and the power plays that keep Necromunda’s noble houses from ever truly sleeping easy.


    So pour yourself a glass of something definitely not toxic, and join us as we climb too high, too fast — to where the silk drips with blood and the credits flow like promethium.

  • Episode 54 - Squiggly Beasts - Part 1
    Oct 29 2025

    OI LADS! HAPPY ORKTOBER!


    In this episode, the boys dive headfirst into the green tide with this month’s theme: THE MIGHTY ORKS!

    They’re tackling the unsung stars of Orkdom — the fungus-fuelled chaos puppies known as Squigs. From their murky and oft-debated origins — whether borne from Tyranid hive fleets or the whimsical scheming of the Brain Boys — these little horrors have wormed their way into nearly every corner of Ork society.

    Expect tales of Squigs as armour for Necron Praetorians, Squigs influencing the cutthroat world of ork politics, and one particularly enthusiastic Ork with… unusual interests in skin grafts. It’s chaotic, it’s bizarre, and it’s gloriously silly — the perfect celebration of some of the weirdest creatures the Warhammer universe has to offer.

    Grab your squig-sized helmet and brace yourself; this one’s a wild ride.

  • Episode 53 - Ash and Steel and Blood - Ash Wastes Nomads
    Oct 11 2025

    Greetings Imperial.



    In this episode, the boys venture deep into the shifting sands of Necromunda’s outer wastes to uncover the truth behind one of the planet’s most elusive factions — the Ash Waste Nomads.


    Born in the dust and forged by exile, the earliest Nomads of Confrontation and ’95 weren’t the spectral hunters we know today. They were traders, scavengers, and killers when the road demanded it — more human than horror.


    But the modern era reshaped them into something far more sinister. Now, they haunt the dunes as faceless wraiths of the wasteland — moving like whispers on the wind, their motives buried beneath layers of dust and myth.


    Mysterious. Deadly. Unknowable.


    So buckle in, scummers — this one’s thick with theory, speculation, and a fair bit of desert madness.
