CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains body horror, scenes of bloody violence, brief descriptions of wounds, and a nightmare involving falling.

This month, we review the Alchemist. The book has a lot of neat Moves, but they tend toward being very situational, and arguably should just be things that a player can do with a standard Challenge Fate draw. What can we do to spice this bad boy up?

Next month, we'll be reviewing The Beast, The Wildcard, and possibly The Conductor, so feel free to send in emails regarding those playbooks!

Mid-mortems continue to be a real thing, and we continue to answer listener questions, this time with the cast of Eidolon SKA!

Come back next week for the beginning of our first miniseries of the year, Eidolon QUEEN!

Is a "mid-mortem" a thing? It is now! With Book I of Eidolon DISCO complete, the cast sits down to answer YOUR questions! 

This month, Fabby holds a book club with Maxie, Iris, and Crystal to discuss To Own the Libs by Zoe Storm, a novel that heavily influenced the character of KC! I have no idea how many book clubs we're gonna have in the future, but there'll probably be at least one more at some point, which makes this episode number one!

For the first time since The Killers, we're dedicating another episode to a group we've already covered! With Daft Punk's 2013 album of the summer containing the namesake of this season's final antagonist, it felt right! What didn't feel right is how nobody except for me Luke has good opinions about this album! I'll never respect Ty, Iris, or Crystal the same way again!!!

We're back, and we're finally fixing up this damn Virtuoso book! Does it really need as much as an overhaul as we thought? Is there something we can do to better signal what we intend this book to be? How much of a headache are we giving Mike in reconfiguring Bob? Why do we have such a hard time with the Virtuoso when the Veteran is basically pitch-perfect?

Next month, we'll be tackling the Alchemist, and hopefully the Beast as well!
