Tuesday Aug 12, 2025
Tuesday Aug 12, 2025
This week I'm joined by by friend Daryl, who's also part of the How We Roll podcast to have a chat about what we think game designers "owe" us when we buy a game, or maybe more accurately, what we think we can expect when we buy a game. it's a good, fun discussion, so listen in, and then swing by the discord and let us know your thoughts and expectations!

198: RPG Sessions w/ JJ
Tuesday Jul 01, 2025
Tuesday Jul 01, 2025
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!

MotW: Trouble in Progress Junction: Finale
Tuesday May 13, 2025
Tuesday May 13, 2025
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!
