Midnight Re-Launch 2.0 Redux - Episode 30

Show Notes 

Welcome to Episode 30! – 2:25         

Could there be a few more roadblocks set to getting this episode out in an already busy part of my calendar?  Yes, I left that exact line from the Ep. 29 show notes because, well, same!  Couple people close to me needed some medical attention and they are on the mend now! But here we are in a news-filled episode

• Some of my fellow podcasts hit some milestones – TSZ hits 700, TB hits 200, AU hits 100
• And welcome to Azeroth Morning Radio which posted its second episode this week. Check them out!

Legion Remix Preview – 13:31

• What race/class combo should I create for Remix?

Drink of the Month – 1:31:33

My goodness, it is Brewfest!  After chugging a Barleybrew Dark, it is time to talk about the new additions to Brewfest, which given my delays, ends minutes after you likely get this podcast in your hot little hands.

 

“What Have You Done Lately?” – 1:34:51     

• I have played some, but not much Brewfest and done a little leveling
• And that leveling got me to 80.3% of the maximum possible levels on a 65-character account just as the cap expands to 70
