IMPORTANT NOTICE

WE ARE NOT MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS. IF YOU ARE IN CRISIS, PLEASE USE THE EMERGENCY NUMBER FOR THE AREA YOU ARE IN (911 IN THE US, 999 IN THE UK, ETC…)

In this episode Jonathan is joined by special guest Dr. Allan G. Hunter; counselor and therapist with a PhD in Literature from Oxford University. Dr. Hunter wrote The Sanity Manual, Life Passages, Gratitude and Beyond as well as collaborating on From Coastal Command to Captivity, which was written by his father.

In college Jonathan had Dr. Hunter as his literature professor and that brings him here to discuss how the tabletop gaming hobby can help those battling anxiety and depression. After discussing the topic in depth then they go on to answer Listener submitted questions.

 

We’re a project Kickstarter loves and we fully funded in under 3 days.  We will use the money to make the 2020 season really amazing.  We are now working to unlock exciting Stretch Goals.

With the Kickstarter now underway Jonathan goes into detail about the extra backer levels that have been added. We are $134 away from unlocking our first stretch goal.  The first will let us produce a full season.

Please back the Kickstarter.

The Kickstarter ends 8am EST on February 19, 2020.

Upcoming Guests:

Gordon Firemark esq. – to discuss copyright law, trademark law and intellectual property laws as they pertain to recasting in the hobby industry.
