Hindsightless

It's been awhile but I'm back, for better or for worse. I've played a lot of games since last we spoke and I want to talk about them. I've played Pathfinder 1E, Monster Hearts, and D&D 5E. This was the most I've played in a row since I was probably 14 years old and it's been awesome! I'm also lucky enough to have a handful of rad call in's that I want to share, then I make a big(?), possibly-not gonna-happen, announcement. 

Thanks so much for the messages:

Julz: Jewels from NZ podcast

Karl Rodriguez

Jason: Nerd's RPG Variety Cast podcast

Here there be major spoilers for the end of Book 1 and the start of Book 2 for Paizo's Rise of the Runelords adventure path.

I played in two really great sessions this week in which I experienced one of those once-in-a-campaign type events and heard something awesome that every DM should want to hear from a new player. Let me tell you all about them!

We end the episode with a message from Spencer, of the Keep Off the Border Lands podcast, that I really hope each and every one of you carries around in your mind for a long time, because I know Spencer's words will stick with me for the rest of my life.

You want responses to my responses? I got responses to my responses! 

In S5E5 I asked John Large and Rob C. each a question, and in this episode they were gracious enough to give me their answers Thanks for being so cool, boys. Jason's got some cool stuff to say as well 

Check out their shows:

Thanks so much to the three of you for discussing this stuff with me and for sharing your thoughts with all of us. You are three cool cats for sure.

I was introduced to Judd Karlman of the terrific Daydreaming About Dragons podcast through Andy's awesome Expedition to the Grizzly Peaks show, where Andy interviewed Judd. I then looked up Judd on Anchor and started listening to his podcast. After reaching out to him, it turns out he started listening to my show as well. Here are a few of the really cool things Judd had to say.  This isn’t an interview.

Check out the Daydreaming About Dragons podcast if you're not already. It's really good👍

Thanks so much Judd for all these great call in's. This episode literally could not have happened without you.

A continuation of my Fluffy Killers episode featuring the esteemed John Allan Large of the RDD RPG podcast and the incomparable Rob C. of the Down in a Heap podcast. Smart dudes saying smart things, and I'm there too. 

Check out their shows if you're not already. They're great!

Spencer: Keep Off the Border Lands podcast

Collin: Spikepit podcast

In response to Barney's message on my last episode I talk about my experience with total party kills in the games I run. Then I weigh in on the ongoing discussion of what's too much in terms of pre-campaign setting information and/or character backgrounds. I'm sure I don't have anything contentious to say on those topics. Lastly I have a couple of rad messages left by two awesome Anchorites. 

Special thanks to:

Barney: Loco Ludus podcast

Julz: Jewels from NZ podcast

It's the session report of my second session of the Rise of the Runelords Pathfinder 1e Adventure Path in which I'm playing and I talk some more about what I like and don't like about Roll20. I also expand on my thoughts on puzzles in response to a call in from John of the RDD RPG podcast. 

A special thanks for the call in's:

In this episode I talk about my first session in the Rise of the Runelords campaign that I just joined and the final session of my 20th level Pathfinder 1e 3-shot I've been running for a few of my friends. Both were epic. Can I convey that epicness? Doubtful. Lastly, I have three absolutely lovely congratulatory call in's from three super rad individuals. 

I touch lightly on several topics in in this episode and if there's anything anyone would like me to expand upon, please let me know by leaving me a voice message on Anchor or finding me on Twitter: @rat_blind
