September 23, 2021 They Live!
The Baldies have returned from the podcast pit of procrastination!
In this episode we have a catch up with what we've been up to and playing, share some thoughts on playing an RPG in the flesh (phwoarrr!) , discuss a tricky second hand purchase and why there may be a shortage of Giant Skittles in Steve's local shop.
Steve's poltergeist also makes a brief appearance although previously having been asked to hold off joining us until October, I mean, you just can't get the ghasts these days..
