Me And Steve Talk RPG‘s
Wide-ranging tabletop role-playing discussion, a variety of guests, and occasional actual-play content. All done with a casual, conversational vibe. Everything from tips for playing and GMing, to rule system discussions, with plenty of whatever happens to cross our minds along the way! Are we ”experts”? No! Do we really love ttRPGs? HECK YEAH!!! To that end, we‘re just looking to start conversations to help folks better understand how they can have more fun playing make-believe, and chucking dice!

Imagine if you will, a game inspired by Judge Dredd, Robocop, GWAR, and the Toxic Avenger.
Oh, wait, you don't have to. It already exists!
I have gotten to play it, and I own a copy of it, and it's a whole lot of fun, and this week, I'm joined by it's creator Brian Shutter! So come hear about all the cool, neo-80s inspired, post-apocalyptic fun that can await you, should you choose to try it!

This week I'm joined by someone who I've had the pleasure of meeting a couple times in-person, and who is also behind a service that I very much enjoy using.
This week it's a conversation with JJ from the team behind RPGSessions.com, which is a website/service/VTT specifically designed for the narrative dice system games (Star Wars and Genesys).
While I love playing games online, I don't particularly love using VTTs, but RPG Sessions is kind of an exception to that, but to find out more, you'll just have to listen to the conversation!

This week it's a conversation about stealing techniques from different sources, inspired by a wonderful little Canadian drama series called Cardinal. We have a bit of a chat around things like intertwining story elements, wrapping those elements up, and how sometimes looking at something different can help you learn new things!

We have a bit of a chat around making sure that you're getting the point you intend to across to your table while you're GMing! Also there's some talk about finding help and information in unexpected places.

Welcome to the finale for this short Monster of the Week game. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did playing it!
Terry was able to make this session, though Hagen wasn't feeling well and couldn't make it, but we continued on to finish this short story.
As folks are I'm sure familiar, sometimes everyone just can't make it, so we just played with who was there!
We recorded this in late spring of 2024, right before I had to switch shifts at work, so it was kind of a 'last hurrah' for the group that had dubbed themselves "Those Guys".
A big "Thank You!" to Ben for once again running the game, and to Terry, Eric, Hagen, and Steve for coming along for the fun! I hope you all enjoy!

Who are "Me and Steve"?
We are 2 friends who happen to share a first name, and a love of tabletop roleplaying games. This podcast is the result of many, many hours spent standing outside after game sessions just talking about gaming, but we decided to get a couple microphones, go inside, and record it, and then share it with the world!
So join us as we share thoughts, experiences, and interviews with people from across the gaming community, as well as some of our adventures in various games we enjoy!
