108: What’s so Fun About Horror with Bridgett Jefferies
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
As a sort of 'closer' to Spooky-month, we sat down to chat with Bridgett Jeffries about just what it is that makes horror gaming fun for those who enjoy it.For those who don't know, Bridgett is an amazing, and amazingly fun person. She's a podcast host, streamer, writer, and a community ambassador for Chaosium.
We talk about what got us started in gaming, how we got interested in horror gaming specifically, some tips on running horror games, and have a whole lotta laughs in the process.
*ALSO CORRECTION* The Delta Green scenario talked about is actually called "Last Things Last" and is included in the Delta Green quickstart, which is called "Need to Know".
If you're interested in hearing or seeing more of Bridgett's work she can be found on the Miskatonic University Podcast -- http://www.mu-podcast.com/ , or links to her streaming, etc can be found at the Symphony Entertainment website -- https://www.symphonyentertainment.com/ .

103: Me and Steve LIVE! at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo!
Tuesday Oct 04, 2022
Tuesday Oct 04, 2022
This week we bring you the recording of a panel that we were asked to do at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo!
We talk about why as the GM, you should be the biggest fan of your players.The audio isn't the greatest, but given we sorta forgot to prepare for actually recording live, we didn't think it sounded too bad for setting a cell phone on the table between us, in a room with a PA system, and close to 200 video and arcade games!
So enjoy, and if you're able to do so, plan on joining us again there next year!
We would very much like to thank the staff and volunteers of the convention for putting on a wonderfully fun event!
Recorded at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo in Monroeville PA (just outside Pittsburgh) on Oct 2, 2022.
For more info on the convention, check out https://www.pghretrogaming.com/. RPGs, board games, retro-video-games, bands, and just fun!
