Lore Party Media

Happy July, friends! With the weather feeling more like Arrakis with each passing day, Leo and I are spending even more unhealthy amounts of time in the studio cooking up new episodes. Here's what we have in store this month.

We're starting the month off with one of our classic character deep dives, this time into everyone's favorite Naib, Stilgar! There was so much to discuss about this iconic character that we had to split the episode into two, so we hope you're excited for a double serving of Stilgar.

Next, we're coming in hot with a heavy-hitter and finally revealing what we've uncovered from the Frank Hebert Archives at California State University, Fullerton. This first episode will share details about Leo and Luna's trip to the archives and delve into the many rejection letters Frank received in his years-long attempt to get Dune published. And yes, we got our hands on those original letters.

Finally, we'll end the month on a Lost Entries episode. In this series of episodes, we'll reveal the unpublished Dune Encyclopedia entries we discovered in the Fullerton Archives. There are literally dozens of juicy expanded lore details that Willis McNelly cut from the final publication of the Encyclopedia, and we're excited to share them with all of you exclusively on the podcast.

Buckle up, folks. This month is going to be HOT, literally and metaphorically.
