Description

Here at The Lore You Know we drill down deep into the fantastical and often convoluted lore of your favorite TV shows, video games, anime, and movies to bring you the facts about completely made up things. Hosts CJ, Ethan, and Fran are occasionally joined by some helpful ”experts” to recant your beloved imaginary worlds all while revealing the truths the average viewer may never see. Are they always right? Most certainly not. Are they comprehensive? Why would you want them to be? Can we make you the next star of your board game night with regaling tales that are pretty correct? Definitely. All of our stuff: https://cookingwithspices.carrd.co/ Musical Intro/Outro by Apogio: https://composerapogio.com Graphics by galestormKitsun: https://twitter.com/galestormKitsun

Hollow Knight

2026/01/28

Do bugs have will? Do any of us, or are we just playthings of Gods? Who knows, but in this episode we talk about a little bug child and their deity father and all sorts of lil critters. If you feel the Radiance, don't fight it, just let it pull you like a moth to the flame.

Lost (TV Series)

2026/01/14

Remember the days when they made TV shows really complicated, and also you could only reliably see them in order if you watched them at certain times, on certain days, and on a certain channel. Seems impossible right? Well...it's more likely than you think. Listen in to see what all the excitement was about circa 2004, and relive a time that was before *gestures broadly* all this.

Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer

2025/12/31

It's that time of year again, one week after Christmas. So of course we have the perfect thing to get you back out of the Jingle Bell spirit by talking about reckless driving, real estate mergers, and of course, capitalism. Our New Year's Resolution is to always respect contract law and to become billionaires the honest, savory way. Happy Holidays everyone!

BattleTech

2025/12/17

Break out your mini paints and clear every table you own, it's time to talk BattleTech. This isn't our first jump into a TTRPG, but this time we trade out a grim dark setting for a much more grounded, and therefore scarier, one. If there's one thing we know it's that giant robots are cool, so surely the gameplay must be interesting as well...right? You don't need to know how the big space ships work (solar power), just who they work for (company).

Power Rangers

2025/12/03

The Power Rangers: Grim dark, angsty teens or colorful, campy crew? What if I told you, it's both. But also it's better when it's the second one. In this episode we explore not just a single show or movie, but a whole genre hailing from Japan called tokusatsu. From Super Sentai to the all American Rangers, it is a cultural exchange as diverse as the Rangers themselves. Go Go Power Rangers!

Adventure Time

2025/11/19

What time is it? It's Lore Time. Come along with us and learn about the Land of Ooo, a place that is at the same time silly and sad, cartoonish and emotional. There's a stretchy dog. We've got all the Lore you need to get up to speed on the latest Fionna and Cake show, as well as plenty of deep lore to impress your friends, be they candy, fire, or slime based. Mathematical!

Digimon Adventure tri

2025/11/05

If at first you don't succeed, tri, tri again. The gang brushed off their digivices, put on their goggles, and fell back into the world of Digimon Adventure tri. It's just like the old Digimon, except this time everyone is older and now you have a mortgage and a retirement account.

The Monster Mash

2025/10/22

I was researching the Lore, late one night When my eyes beheld an eerie sight It was Sammi and Erik who came to remind There's a music album with a story behind. It was The Monster Mash. What's scarier for the Halloween season than listening to the canon lore of a spooky dance monsters do? Maybe listening to two grown men attempt to do said dance.

Sonic The Hedgehog: In 3D

2025/10/08

The Lore is back and what better way to get up to speed than to talk about the fastest thing alive. Sonic has done a lot of things, some of them canonically. We try to make some sense of what makes this chili dog fueled vermin keep pace with the other mascots. OCs are mentioned only a few (dozen) times, pls do not steal.

Fast & Furious

2025/01/22

Break out the grease and Nos because it's time for the gang to go faster and with more fury than they have ever gone before. What is family? Who is family? Why is family? These questions and more will not be answered by us, but we will explain why Vin Diesel is so powerful but only while behind the wheel of a car. In the passenger seat this time around is Ethan with Lizzy at the wheel (https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/).

The Christmas Shoes

2025/01/08

Erik came in wide-eyed and crazed about a movie that was made from a book that was made about the lyrics of a song. Naturally, we had to explore this holiday themed world where the season is less than festive and the lessons learned are...up to interpretation. At the very least we keep the Christ in Christmas Shoes. On this episode are cohosts Erik and Lizzy (https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/)

The Wizard of Oz

2024/12/11

CJ is sick, Fran is sick, let's play games. Defying gravity? More like defying canon am I right? This week the gang dives into the deep lore The Wizard of Oz, but the original stuff so you won't even be able to impress your friends with cool Wicked lore. Unless your friends would be more impressed with lore from a hundred year old book in which case your friends will probably like the podcast too. Lizard is a host on this one, check her out or get turned into a cactus: https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/

The Dark Crystal (Part 3)

2024/11/27

The finale is finally here, the final say on the finish of feltish tale. All the strings are finally coming together, the weave completed (except that the Netflix series was cancelled). Complete your knowledge of the Dark Crystal as we bid our special guest goodbye, for now. Thanks again for Sammi and Erik's research and of course Lizzy for cohosting (https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/).

The Dark Crystal (Part 2)

2024/11/13

A new age dawns, and by that we mean we have another episode of dark fantasy puppets for you. The stakes are being raised, these little guys are facing horrors beyond their fuzzy minds. Perhaps if they can navigate this Labyrinth of alliances and enemies they can come out on top, or at least stay above ground. Who knows how it's going to turn out (we do). Friends Sammi and Erik return for the journey along with the always lovely Lizzy (https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/).

The Dark Crystal (Part 1)

2024/10/30

Halloween and is here and we are bringing the fall vibes with this classic dark fantasy starring puppets and only puppets. Learn everything there is to know about the world of the Dark Crystal. Who put the big bird men in charge? Why do they keep talking about needing to "defend" from "attackers?" Does an ancient spiritual mother-being make babies the old fashioned way? We will find out all of this and more on our new multi part series that begins this All Hallows Eve Eve. Thanks again to good friends and special guests Sammi and Erik who are bringing our lore to us on this journey and to good wife and co-host Liz (https://lizardxlizard.carrd.co/).
