Countdown To Classic - A World Of Warcraft Classic Podcast

This Monday, Countdown To Classic mixes things up by putting our detective hats on and just spending the episode analysing one topic in particular instead of the traditional three.  During the week, we got our first potential 'leaks' of World of Warcraft: Classic information.  When this comes from a company that isn't historically known for being leaky, naturally the skeptics came out to play, of which Countdown To Classic is one.  Join us as we break the news down from all angles, whilst trying to be as fair, and polite, as possible without necessarily kissing bums. Covering a lot of Patch 1.1 chat along the way. This episode is a little different to our usual Monday episodes, so if this is your first listen, then be sure to check out other Monday episodes for a true feel of what the news shows are usually like!
