Starting WoW
Every week, Starting WoW brings you the premier short-form informational and humor podcast all about World of Warcraft.
Season 1 was based around kicking new players of WoW into shape, and Season 2 was all about the casual players.

Beginnings

The idea for Starting WoW first came about when Cian was on a french exchange. World of Warcraft was always something which he wanted to try, but never really got an excuse to. In France, it seemed that everybody played, so he used this excuse to start up the podcast.

How Cian got into World of Warcraft

At the french school Cian was doing his exchange in, everybody was playing WoW. Cian first tried to fight this, and felt like an utter loner reading while everybody else was busy ganking each other. Soon, he gave in, and now can be found playing WoW and recording shows based on his experiances.

Segments

One thing Starting WoW has become known for are it’s segments on everything from choosing a good class for your play style to deciding what type of food to feed your pet.

Tongue in Cheek

Starting WoW never takes itself seriously. Come on, It’s a show about playing a computer game. Episodes which take themselves seriously should be considered mistakes.

Lingo

There have been many reoccurring sections in SWoW over the seasons. These include Lingo, Stopping WoW and the popular Survival section.

Holiday Shows

After every season, SWoW takes an official break. Weekly Holiday Shows replace the normal schedule, filled with banter, humor and fun.
