#35 - Kaleb Wentzel-Fisher: Power Vacuum or (The Death of The Brave Little Toaster: A Space Odyssey)
In the show’s 35th episode, we are super electrified to have designer Kaleb Wentzel-Fisher join us and to talk about Power Vacuum and so much more. The stories here might shock you! The puns I force Kaleb to make might make your hair stand on end! That’s all a part of the guarantee that you are in for a more fun time than a stroll down the aisle of your local appliance store.
But in all seriousness, this is a great episode. You already knew that.
Check out Kaleb’s work:

Power Vacuum (purchasable through Keen Bean Studio)
[The intro kind of forgot the number initially, making things sound a little funky–but that was corrected shortly after–lol.]
NEW SHOW NOTES FEATURE–Google Doc of Games Mentioned this Episode
Prologue (0:00)
Several fun introductory anecdotes, and Kaleb is set up with a task that will help “set the scene” for each of the following acts.
Act I (18:30)
Exploring Kaleb’s backgrounds in film and sound in order to see how they have made their way into Kaleb’s board game design thoughts. Kaleb and Malachi Ray Rempen (Keen Bean Studio) have a very interesting backstory, and Kaleb reflects on that here as well.
Act II (48:11)
Some quotes taken from The Death of Stalin, an inspiration for Power Vacuum, and some random questions based on those quotes.
Act III (1:15:16)
What constitutes an appliance?
How did Power Vacuum come to exist?
What is the meaning of life?
Two of those three questions are answered.
Probably.
Epilogue (1:41:26)
A text on Kaleb’s mind and things to look out for from him in the future.
