I roll up a new PC for Whispered Tales of Gore after a near TPK, plus calls from Joe, Jason, Daniel, and Tim and a new Midderzine contest announcement.
I’m joined again by Jason from Nerd’s RPG Variety Cast as we discuss the 1931 classic, Frankenstein. Just two fans rambling about something they love. Plus pirate singing?!?
Calls about narrative meta currency, and magic swords; responses to Melancholy Monday: Covid & why we’re podcasting (sorry for the delays); the Boy Who Could Fly, session recap, and marmalade.
I ramble a bit about what I’ve been up to, gaming narrative currency, a magic weapon option, and a preview of the Back to BasiX compilation by Thom Wilson of Throwi Games
The anniversary of needing hospitalization for Covid has me feeling gloomy. But some listener calls help perk me up and I do a reading from the Referee section of Swords & Wizardry.
Calls about Kickstarter, Creativity, and Cartoons! And I add another tarnished nugget to my list of “gaming laws”. If you want to avoid Covid talk, skip in about 10 minutes.
Calls about cartoons, cereal, and more from Ray, Jason, Joe, Kevin, Taylor, Roy, Daniel, and Evil Jeff. Who is the big winner of the Midderzine from Glynn Seal of Monkeyblood Design?
I go through the setting doc for Middlemarch, my exploration S&W game set in Glynn Seal’s Midderlands. Plus calls from Daniel Norton and Goblin’s Henchman. Enjoy!
I procrastinated far too long, and wow!, 36 calls on this megalosaurus bonanza. Thanks everyone! And don’t forget: call me with something cartoon related by 8/6/21 for the next Midderzine giveaway.
Calls about henchmen and the “name that Henchman!” contest winner. Who just won an issue of the Midderzine by Monkeyblood Design? And how do you enter the next contest? Listen in...😉
