The podcast Arachne: An Infinity Game Podcast is created by Professional Casual Network. The podcast and the artwork on this page are embedded on this page using the public podcast feed (RSS).
The boys (Dr.D, Mike, and Wilmar) talk about their experiences at Adepticon 2025. The highs, the other highs, and the good time that they all had. They talk about the different games and merchandise they grabbed while there and of course, make some terrible jokes along the way.
The boys (Dr.D and Mike) get together to discuss what has been going on with the channel and to clear up some questions that people were asking. The podcast will live on! They then go into discussing the new ISS sculpts while telling pretty bad jokes along the way. Come and join us will you?
The boys (Dr.D, Mike, and their guest Mack) talk about their battle report in a narrative way. Please give us feedback on this and we may do more of it. They then talk about what they thought about the lists and how Mike may change his zoner list. They, of course, tell some terrible jokes along the way.
The boys are at it again. Dr.D, Mike, and Ernesto talk about the upcoming event known as Adepticon. They talk about their lists and speculate on how they will change them and work with them until the fated day to play them at the event. And of course, they make some terrible jokes along the way.
We have a very special guest. We have Father Time from Mythicos to talk about their amazing game called Mythic Earth (Americas). They have a great time talking history and going over the entire game. The setting is fascinating and the Arachne family has a deep love for this kind of narrative story telling and model gaming. So we recommend you give it a listen and of course enjoy the terrible jokes along the way.

The boys (Dr.D, Mike, Derek) and the lady (Erin) get to talking about the recap for Everwinter 2025.

The other two idiots then talk about how they did in the event from a participant standpoint. They of course have some laughs along the way. Come on in and join us!

Welcome to the new segment of Netwatch. The Arachne cast love Cyberpunk: Combat Zone so they decided to start covering it. We asked Mack on, who works for Monster Fight Club, to talk about the newest release from Night City. We go over the cards, what we think of them, and some combos that could help you out in your future games. We of course say stupid things and make bad jokes along the way.
The boys (Dr.D and Mike) talk about doing slow grow leagues at your local stores. With the coming new edition right around the corner, it is a perfect time to get people at the store and playing with new armies so that everyone can learn at the same pace. Its also just a great way to get people involved in the hobby! We of course tell some bad jokes along the way.
The boys (Dr.D and Frank) pull out the classic JSA sectorial and talk their favorite profiles and tactics.

The new series for Through the Breach with the Big Deicht Enterprises sub-division. It was decided to release it under Arachne due to the fact that Dr.D is in it and has taken over editing for it. The boys get to some mischief on their way through the breach and find themselves in a very dangerous situation.

The boys, Dr.D and Mack, talk about a newer wargame called Cyberpunk: Combat zone based on the very popular RPG system. We talk about Mack's nerd story and get into how he got involved with this game and its continuing development. Of course, we tell some terrible jokes along the way and get distracted from the topic at hand!
The host managed to use all of his goodwill in life to get an audience with the amazing Hoopoe! She is the ambassador for Warcrow from Corvus Belli and goes into detail about the universe, the game's factions, and how the company ticks. We also hear about her heist to touch Koni's face. It is an incredible interview and we are very thankful that she came on to talk to Dr.D.
The boys, (Dr.D and Devin from Metachemistry) talk about the new game format Resilience Ops. What they think about it and going over the cards that make the game what it is.

Due to a change in management due to chronic gambling issues, Dr.D had to let go of the show and give it to the notorious BIG Keef. He has decided to rebrand the podcast as Aahhhh Scorpions. They mock the previous owner of the show, Dr.D, due to him being a ninny. Then they cover the actual keys to improving your gaming skills.
The boys (Dr.D and Brady T) talk about Neoterra lore and some of the classic profiles associated with the faction. They have a grand ol time and slowly lose their minds as they read all of the published lore that is available for this single planet. Of course they tell some jokes along the way!
Dr.D has the privilege to interview the company, Blindspot, about their new Infinity video game The Hexadrome Aristeia Showdown that just recently finished their first alpha test.

Come on in and enjoy the laughs!
We have decided to throw in another bonus episode since the previous episode was slightly shorter than usual. Same great content and it doesn't even push back any of your regular infinity content.

Lobo is one of the best Infinity players in the world and promises to say something that could improve your own game. Come and give it a listen Arachnids!
The boys (Dr. D and Brady T.) talk about the previous year and the coming year for the show and Infinity in general. Of course they make some jokes and even speculate on what is coming from CB. Of course this was recorded before they showed off what the new sectorial was. So be amazed at Dr. D's ability to see the future!

Also, as always, some kind of audio equipment broke while recording the episode so the episode might end sorta abruptly.
The boys (Brady T and Dr. D) do a lore episode on Bureau TOPH and by extension some of O12. Due to the lack of profiles in the miniatures game for this specific part of O12, it is purely a lore discussion with some joking put in for good measure. Time to jump into the part of the lore that lead to the creation and supervision of ALEPH.
The boys, Brady T and Dr. D, talk about the new ITS 15 that has revealed itself a few weeks ago. They talk about the new scenarios and the scenario modifiers. They also make mistakes because they are dumb and have some laughs along the way. Why don't you come on it and listen?
Dr. D made a new friend and forced him with a blank check to come onto his podcast. Thankfully, that friend was Devin from the METAchemistry podcast. They talk about Devin's nerd backstory and get into some insights on how they think people can improve their Infinity gaming. They also laugh a whole bunch because they are both goofy goobers.

Hope you enjoy!

They discuss how the listeners might want to go about running events of their own and how rewarding such an experience can be.
WARNING: Dr. D's microphone decided it didn't want to work anymore near the end of the episode. We salvaged what we could, but it gets choppy near the end.
