WoWed By Zones

A podcast where three siblings examine and review every single zone in popular MMORPG World of Warcraft.

Episode 11: The Barrens 06/12/2025

Episode 11: The Barrens We've got a long one today! The Barrens is a truly massive zone to the point of being THREE zones to talk about, and not just two - talking about the nature of the Horde and it's place in the world, the relationship with goblins, and in a big one, the horrors of war and the monsters it makes. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/36966820

Episode 10: Westfall 03/30/2025

Episode 10: Westfall Hey, we've done ten episodes! Today the three of us talk about Westfall, about the nature of statehood, a land left to dust, and revenge. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/35927730

Episode 9: Silverpine Forest 02/28/2025

Episode 9: Silverpine Forest Our horrid defiances of tragedy and nature enter their second zone! Talks of war, colonialism, werewolves, and incredibly underwritten villains ahoy after our lovely return to WoWed By Zones! /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/35488025

Episode 8: Loch Modan 12/28/2024

Episode 8: Loch Modan Today we dive into another second zone, the dwarven lowlands of Loch Modan, where we discuss missed potential, signs of empire, and a set of villains that could have been so much better incorporated into the zone. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/34635370

Episode 7: Darkshore 11/17/2024

Episode 7: Darkshore Ari, Torin, and Eowyn finally leave our starting zones and begin to make our way to the outside world! We talk about how Cataclysm zones function as sequels, the relationship of the night elves with the world, and lore lore lore! /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/33957472

Episode 6: Tirisfal Glades 10/31/2024

Episode 6: Tirisfal Glades And on our appropriately spooky upload date, Ari, Torin, and Eowyn go to go to the undead starting zone of Tirisfal Glades, discussing tone issues, atmosphere, a sense of what it means to be, and the entire existential nonsense behind being a person-who-isn't-a-person-anymore. We're finally done with starting zones for now! /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/33699802

Episode 5: Teldrassil 10/10/2024

Episode 5: Teldrassil Ari, Torin, and Eowyn enter a magical elf forest atop a great tree. We talk a lot more about lore than we usually do in this episode, so be warned of that! /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/33403262

Episode 4: Mulgore 09/18/2024

Episode 4: Mulgore Ari, Torin, and Eowyn start taking about a new opening zone in the tauren's plains of Mulgore - we talk about topics like community, exploitation, colonialism, and 2005-era MMO quest design. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/33102107

Episode 3: Elwynn Forest 09/09/2024

Episode 3: Elwynn Forest Apologies for the long wait for this one; we've had a few difficulties finding the time due to end-of-summer stuff. In our third episode, Ari, Torin, and Eowyn tackle Elwynn Forest, the human starting zone, and possibly the least changed by the Cataclysm expansion. Discussions of conspiracism, atmosphere, and horrible murlocs exist in this episode of WoWed By Zones. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/32966147

Episode 2: Durotar 08/09/2024

Episode 2: Durotar Ari and Torin are joined by a wild sister! Eowyn joins us for the rest of our journey as we enter the brutal land of Durotar, where we talk about patriotism, worldbuilding, and (spoiler alert) a damn fine zone. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/32521327

Episode 1: Dun Morogh 08/01/2024

Episode 1: Dun Morogh In their first foray into the land of Azeroth, Ari and Torin take on the wintry wasteland of Dun Morogh, where dwarves and gnomes start their journeys, discussing topics as varied as vibes, structure, and colonialism. /episode/index/show/08faa0fe-e355-43c8-ba96-6214d76e0301/id/32390857
