I dive straight into responding to messages from Joe Richter of Hindsightless, Jason Connerley of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast and Karl Rodriguez of The GMologist Presents, talking about The Dee Sanction, All Rolled Up, Mõrk Borg and how I'm not very metal. I then chat about how much I've been enjoying the Netflix series Arcane: League of Legends before treating you to yet another unboxing. This time it's the Haunted Almanac, a fabulous compilation of the work of microgame maestro Nate Treme.
