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!

Here we go! Welcome to Havoc Brigade!, a game written by Grant Howitt, and available here -- https://gshowitt.itch.io/havoc-brigade
Admittedly, this game does seem to feel a bit more lively and fun when played around an actual table, and it one continuous session. That said, we all had fun playing it, and I hope you all enjoy listening to our madness!
It's also worth noting that we did take this rather "cartoony" quite quickly, and it certainly does not have to be played that way. However, as much as we mention this game, we also felt like yall should hear us play it!
The Cast:
"New Steve" -- 'Sergent' Shivvit Deadeye, half-orc infiltrator
Ben -- Moontoof, Wyrdforest Shaman
Terry -- The Goblins (Stinky Pete, Stab, Snot, Brain, Bang, and Gobblit)
Eric -- The Ox
Hagan -- Profanius, devout Paladin of Bog-Al-Karukk
"Old Steve" -- GM
We greatly appreciate the donations of our Patreon supporters: Eric Witman, Jeff McKinney, Joshua Gopal-Boyd, Dave Smith, Brett Bowen, Streety, Nate Doverspike, and Dec! Y'all make keeping this going possible!

Welcome to the final session of our Genesys-powered Oblivion War arc! As we wrap this up, (at least for now), I hope you all have enjoyed it. I know we all enjoyed playing it a lot. I would like to thank all involved for their participation, and I wish you all happy listening!

Ben -- GM (and wrangler of cats)
Eric -- Prangalar (catfolk scout)
Hagan -- Groth (orcish primalist)
Terry C -- Barnelby (gnome bard)

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!
