World of Warcraft: The Corrupted Blood

Season 3, Ep. 13
•

Hello and welcome Lore Folk, the Lore Boys are back but are not long for this world. Jamie is still in Mexico so it's another conference call, but that's probably for the best as we are covering the corrupted blood incident from World of Warcraft. We certainly don't want to get too close to each other for this one as it could mean our certain doom.

Come along and learn about how fake germs grabbed the interest of actual governments, scientists and even created eco-terrorist cells within the game. Anthropologists studied the behaviour of players to get information about real life pandemics.

We also learn which class of person to avoid, no it isn't the poor as their ability to steal the souls of the monarchy has been dismissed as quackery it was hunters. Their boar or cat could be a ticking bio-time bomb.

As always, we super appreciate you listening, and hope that if you enjoy the show you’ll tell your friends and leave us a review on iTunes and the rest our social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.) We wanna hear from you guys, so shoot us an email at loreboyspodcast@gmail.com or else we'll pay for your head. You can also help by sneezing or coughing this episode straight into someone's mouth.
