• “Give me all your flesh!” - The Nikatine Interview

  This week! Candace The Magnificent, Liv Kennedy and Jeremy Cobb are joined by streamer, activist and incredible GM...Nikatine. We dive into her origin story and journey into all things nerdy, a wildly creative beginning sparked by her dad building a computer, and the early games that unlocked her imagination, from The Sims to StarCraft. The conversation then shifts into her path through streaming and her deep love of TTRPGs, which ultimately led to the creation of Issliss and the launch of Fablescraps as a TTRPG production studio. Nikatine discusses crafting Issliss from the ground up, how original concepts were able to hit the ground running, and how a deep passion for world-building allows the exploration of anxiety, fear, and the things that are truly terrifying, transforming those emotions into powerful creative fuel. The Halflings also discuss how Nikatine consistently shows up to represent and advocate for individual cultures and perspectives, and how themes of alienation and the search for belonging resonate strongly through her work, drawn from her own lived experiences. The episode concludes with two incredible Tales From the Table from Issliss...both of which amazingly feature our very own Candace!

• “Come over to Charlie Browns” - The Holidays Are Here! Part 1

  This week! Candace the Magnificent, Liv Kennedy, and Jeremy Cobb ease into the holiday season as Jeremy explores the differences between UK and US celebrations. They look at the contrast in Halloween hype and how their childhoods shaped whether they did, or didn’t, celebrate. Jeremy shares his complicated relationship with the holidays, reflecting on childhood boredom, babysitting, and feeling excluded, all of which shaped his adult ambivalence toward the season, not to mention the pressure the holidays can bring. The Halfings talk about the comfort of being welcomed into other people’s traditions and how technology now makes it easier to connect with family or a chosen community. They also discuss the emotional walls we build around family to fit in or protect ourselves during the holidays. The Halflings end this episode with the important discussion of racism and sexism in sport, noting that this topic deserves an entire episode of its own due to the importance.

• “Nostalgia Hurts Sometimes” - Nostalgia and Toxic Fandoms PART 2

  This week! Liv, Candace and Jeremy continue their deep dive into why nostalgia isn't always comforting, and how to process the grief of a once beloved creator or artwork turning out to be a real-world nightmare. From how the most toxic fandoms can taint the things we love, to that toxicity can make it difficult to have discussions about the things you enjoy.

• “Nostalgia Hurts Sometimes” - Nostalgia and Toxic Fandoms PART 1

  This week! Liv, Candace, and Jeremy take a little detour into sharing some of their scariest and spookiest tales. From petrifying Polaroids to demonic dreams, the Halflings dive into it all. Why are we drawn to nostalgia? What exactly makes us feel nostalgic. Within this conversation, they tackle the big elephant in the room: Harry Potter and J.K. Rowling’s disappointing outlook. From plagiarism claims to damaging public statements, they unpack why separating the artist from the art doesn’t hold up in this case. This episode is about the grief of losing something that once meant everything, and coming to terms with the fact that the magic didn’t simply fade — it was taken. But this isn't the full story!

• “It Takes a Village” - The Samantha Béart Interview

  Spoiler Warning: This episode contains spoilers for Baldur’s Gate 3 during Samantha's Tale from the Table. This week! Jeremy Cobb, Liv Kennedy and Candace the Magnificent are joined by BAFTA-nominated actor and voice artist Samantha Béart - the brilliant vocal talent behind characters such as Karlach in Baldur’s Gate 3, Thomasina Bateman in The Excavation of Hobb's Barrow, Oracle in TRON: Catalyst, and many more! The Halflings chat with them about Samantha’s Shakespearean roots, lifelong love of storytelling, and how that classical training influences Samantha's modern voice work. Samantha opens up about the thought process behind bringing characters to life, the value of finding your people, and discusses intersectionality and the importance of rising above challenges to succeed together. The conversation also explores the story behind their show It Takes a Village, its upcoming new season, and why celebrating the people behind the scenes in media truly matters!
