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!

Prompted by a situation at one of his game tables, Decurion, our GM for the Ruby and Fire AP series, posted a small pdf he created, titled "How to Play Exalted" on our discord. He also made the "mistake" of claiming "I can talk for at least 45 minutes on this..." So I took him up on the offer!
While specifically written for Exalted, almost all of this applies to any narratively focused game, regardless of system, and so we chatted about it for a while.Should you want to download, read, etc a copy of this document, you can find it here -- https://docs.google.com/document/d/14fjSZhwmTiv0N-3zAG5oOQuzswN5ScKR9cRBX0dQFmw/edit?usp=drive_link

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!
