Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 23 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of September 15-21, a brief week with some key character moments, and an unexpected resolution to the festival/typhoon we've been teased about being on the way.

Jonathon and Tom run down the almost-full week of free time the two get to enjoy, coming off the tumultuous and stressful weeks we've had recently. However, we do get the opportunity for another set of introspective moments with Ken and Koromaru, thanks to the continuation of the optional hangouts that popped up this week (full spoilers if you haven't played those!).

In addition to that, we of course break down the free afternoons and evenings we have in a rather quick week of P3R, while also discussing what occurs around what should have been a festive moment. With an unexpected encounter with Takaya, and an unfortunate turn of events, we sail through the week while also answering some of your questions, discussing this week's pop quiz, and much more.

Next week's episode will be focused on the days of September 22-28.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 22 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of September 8-14, which allows us to dig into a lot of important character moments.

Spoiler and content warnings for this week: As we dig into the discussions of Chidori and Junpei's relationship and what we learn of their situation this week, please be advised that we do briefly discuss topics of self-harm throughout the episode as they pertain to the storyline.

Additionally, Tom and Jonathon break down a large number of S.E.E.S. character-driven moments from throughout the week. However, these moments are technically optional and it is possible you may not have experienced them yet! Basically, any chance this week Tom and Jonathon had to tackle a "!!" moment from Ken, Shinji, Mitusuru, and Koromaru, they did. These discussions take up the bulk of our conversation this week, so if you have not experienced those, we recommend coming back to this episode after you have, or enjoy our spoiler-filled take on those events and give them a try after if you so wish.

We do of course spend time breaking down what may have otherwise gone on in our free time, as Tom continues to outpace Jonathon on the social stats, while Jonathon jumps into social links Tom maybe forgets are even in the game. But, yes, this week is a doozy of character background info, important lore dumps, and more, so if you have not experienced these scenes yet, come back once you have!

Next week's episode will be focused on the days of September 15-21.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 13 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of July 8-13, which includes one less day than normal but plenty more story reveals and character revelations than your average week!

The boys jump in to a story-dense week by going over the plethora of free time opportunities and eventful conversations of the week. As we're nearing an exams week, the duo digs into whether they're using their free time to study up, or if Jonathon and Tom are OK with not getting top of the class this time around. In addition to that, we discuss some of the social links we've focused on in a week where the students of Geoukkan High are too busy to pal around.

But naturally, the bulk of our conversation this week revolves around the major story and character details we learn about S.E.E.S., shadows, the Dark Hour, and how it all impacts our gang. There are multiple days of major reveals to discuss, so we go in-depth on our thoughts about what we learn regarding the gang's backstories, the advancements to the main plot, and just why exactly everyone seems to be in a bummer mood by the end of the week. From Junpei's anger to Yukari's frustrations to Mitsuru's backstory and so much more, this week in Persona 3 Reload offers no shortage of impactful scenes for us to discuss.

And, of course, we also talk about all the study sessions happening throughout the week, because even when your worldview shifts, you've still got to make time to study for P3R's exams.

For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of July 19, which again is one less day than normal.

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 12 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of June 30 - July 7, which includes a deep dive on the latest Full Moon Operation, or, as the kids are definitely calling it, the latest FMO.

Ahead of that major story event, however, there is a ton of free time discussion to be had. So Tom and Jonathon first dig into a host of free time hangouts, job opportunities, and more. We get to the bottom of what Tom's social link hangout has been (thank you to all of those concerned citizens writing in to help him solve the issue!), and progress a number of social links further, including another maxed-out one!

There's also some rumination on unexpected side details we discover of the world, another encounter with the fridge, and more to discuss from the week. But, of course, the centerpiece discussion of Episode 12 is Persona 3 Reload's latest full moon, which sees S.E.E.S. seize the scene with an infiltration of an unexpected new location. We dig into the character moments, boss battles, and fallout of the latest operation, as well as our thoughts on how it stacks up with what's come before it. Plus, a new pop quiz question, some listener thoughts, and plenty more.

Why did we go off-topic and start discussing candy? What is the solution to the mystery of Tom's social link blocks? What out-of-left-field Pop Quiz question will rock us into next week? Find out all in this week's Take Your Time!

For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of July 8-13 , which includes one less day than we would normally cover! We will also be diving into the next Social Link we've completed, which is the Track Team (Miyamoto).

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 11 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of June 23-29, which includes a week's worth of free time, but with a handful of important character moments and progression. Plus, our first full Social Link discussion!

Tom and Jonathon dig into the week's activities with a breakdown of the day and evening free time opportunities the week held. That includes further digging into the new hangout opportunities at the dorm, a bunch of progression in our various social link lines, and more. We also get to discuss some important scenes featuring Akihiko and Shinjiro, as well as Yukari and Fuuka. We take a look at how relationships are impacted, plus the teases for the upcoming weeks, including exams in just a few weeks.

But the week also gives us the opportunity to revisit Tartarus and check in on our continued thoughts, including more than a few tangents that left even us confused. Plus, now that Tom and Jonathon have both completed the Kenji social link and maxed out that friendship, we discuss what we thought of the plotline, its place in the game, and how we're feeling about it in comparison to the wider social link opportunities.

What did we think of Kenji? Why is Jonathon appearing to shrink in the video? Can Tom get through Jonathon's tangents? Find out all in this week's Take Your Time!

For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of June 3 - July 7, which includes an extra day than we would normally!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 10 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of June 16-22, which includes a week of free time opportunities, the introduction of some new nighttime activities at the dorm, and more.

Tom and Jonathon dig into the week's activities by, of course, breaking down each of their free time choices for the week. Jonathon desperately tries to keep up with Tom's social link choices, and Tom has to make some swerves when it comes to his hangouts thanks to some unexpected roadblocks. But in addition to that, the duo gets a chance to...tour the dorm we've all been living in for the last two and a half months?

Yes, though a surprisingly late tour nonetheless, this early week activity opens up our evening choices greatly, allowing the hosts to dig into more hangouts with the members of S.E.E.S., increase social stats, cook, read some books, and more. Plus, we discuss the brief introduction of Koromaru, some surprising character moments throughout the week, and more.

We'll be discussing the next section of Tartarus next week for those who haven't jumped in as we near the next full moon. But before then we also have a new Pop Quiz, some listener comments and questions, and more.

For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of June 23-29!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 9 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of June 9-15, which offers the members of S.E.E.S. a chance to debrief following last week's full moon operation.

As last week ended in a climactic showdown that brought with it new revelations for the team, a new party member, and some important bonding moments, this week offers some insight into how the protagonist and team are grappling with what occurred. Tom and Jonathon dig into the fallout of that full moon, including Fuuka's decision on whether to join the team, as well as Yukari's feelings about the situation and what the team has now learned.

The week also gives us the introduction of some new gameplay elements with the reveal of Theurgy attacks, and of course the cool new outfits that come along with that moment. But in addition to life in Tartarus, the week also gives Jonathon and Tom a chance to further dig into some new and existing social links, develop their skills, and more. The duo dissect how their paths are both similar and divergent, in addition to offering their thoughts on some of the character relationships so far.

Plus, we of course have a new Pop Quiz, some listener comments and questions, and more.

For those looking to play along, the next episode of Take Your Time will cover the events of June 16-22!

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 8 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of June 2-8, which brings along with it a new party member, a new full moon operation, and some important story and character-building moments.

Before we get to that climactic final day of this week in P3R, Jonathon and Tom break down what they did throughout the rest of the week. There's plenty of free time to discuss how social links are progressing, jobs, and more. But even beyond that, there are several key character and story-related moments of Persona 3 Reload to dive into for the week.

That naturally includes some of the continued investigation of what spooooky ghost goings-on may be, well, going on at Geoukkan High, as well as the re-appearance of a mysterious character as the player, Yukari, and Junpei venture out on a risky adventure.

Then, of course, the hosts dig into this week's full moon, including a dive into the events involving Fuuka Yamagishi, some startling revelations (for the characters, at least), and just how tough Mitusuru and Yukari are. As the full moon arrives, we break down our thoughts on the next boss battle, how the members of S.E.E.S. are handling things, and some of your thoughts on the adventure of the week! Plus, we of course have a new Pop Quiz, some listener comments, and more.

Yes, summer is in full swing (despite it not officially starting for a couple of more weeks), so the students of Geoukkan High get a chance to show off the latest season's fashion. But, of course, there's also a full week of free time to discuss! Jonathon and Tom run through what they do each day of this final week of May and the first day of June, including discussions around new Social Links for both hosts, some social stat rank ups, and more.

But the week isn't only about free time. While there aren't necessarily major story milestones, there are plenty of character-building moments to dive into this week. Tom and Jonathon discuss some hilarious Junpei moments, an important evening with Akihiko, and some new goings-on at school. Perhaps most importantly, Tom finally finds out what happens when the fridge has some free space in it!

As we're also just about to head into a new full moon, we spend some time this week digging into the next section of Tartarus, including Tom's first impressions. Plus we've also got some listener comments and questions, a new Pop Quiz, and more.

Some Spoiler-conscious Timecodes:

9:45 - 11:33: Chihiro's first Social Link scene
19:44 - 37:56: Next section of Tartarus discussion
40:05 - 41:06: Suemitsu's first Social Link scene

Hello and welcome to Take Your Time, a Persona podcast in which hosts Jonathon Dornbush and Tom Marks are playing through Persona 3 Reload week by week along with the in-game calendar. On episode 6 of the Persona 3 Reload playthrough this season, the hosts cover the events of May 18-25, which includes the inaugural midterms, as well as a couple of days after exams with some free time to spare. And, yes, despite joking about having such a quick week to cover, this show is somehow longer than last week's.

Take Your Time's sixth episode focuses in on the midterm exams that the P3R main character and their fellow S.E.E.S. members must partake in. The exams themselves offer a unique respite and shakeup to the Persona 3 Reload formula, so Tom and Jonathon talk about how they feel about the exams' inclusion, a little bit about the questions themselves, and of course how they fared in taking them.

After P3R's midterms are over, though, the duo dives into a few days of free time, which allow us to pick up with our regularly scheduled social link opportunities. But that's not all these few extra days offer, as Jonathon and Tom also discuss the introduction of gardening to P3R's calendar, as well as exam results day, and a couple teases of story here and there. But with such a relatively quick in-game set of days, the duo answers plenty of YOUR questions, with topics ranging from notetaking to NG+ to food and so much more. And, of course, Tom offers another Pop Quiz question before closing out the week.
