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!

It's that time of year again! The 2024 edition of the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo (PGX) is happening October 4-6 at the Monroeville Convention Center in Monroeville PA!
We're joined by Wizz, one of the organizers to chat about the show, and what was a particularly challenging behind-the-scenes to make this year's show happen.
We can tell you from personal experience that this show is a helluva lot of fun, and a great time!
At least one of us will be there (quite possibly both) and we'd love to meet, chat, and play games!

This week we're back in our Genesys actual-play series, and we bring you the results of a bit of a world-building session that unfortunately did not get recorded. But, y'all do get to hear a bit of what was created, that being the site "New Barquat".
This one's a little shorter, as several of us were in various stages of getting over illnesses, and frankly, the energy levels just weren't there. But I hope you enjoy it regardless!
The Cast:
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!
