October 28, 2025 211: Duginthroat Divided w/ Daniel Carlsen & Walton Wood
This week I'm joined by 2 parts of the creative team behind Duginthroat Divided, which is an adventure location designed for Old School Essentials. It's a modular, drop-in location for lots and lots of old-school adventuring fun, and would easily port to any OSR system of your choice! It's currently on Kickstarter, though if you're coming to this later, it will release in the usual places as well!

September 09, 2025 207: Raptor Ruckus w/ Zac Goins
Step back for a moment to 1993, and remember the awe that filled your mind when you got those first glimpses of that ill-fated park, hidden out on an island. I know I'm not the only one who's wanted to explore that as an RPG playground, and until now, the choices have been rather limited. But the ttRPG world is ever-adapting, and this week we bring you a conversation with Zac Goins, the lead on a project called Raptor Ruckus! It's Mork-Borg-y deliciousness, served up with a giant helping of pre-historic giants!
Y'all, this is too cool to not check out.

September 02, 2025 206: Tribes in the Dark with Wil
This week we're joined by Wil, lead designer on a team that's re-imagining an older game, called Tribe 8, published by Dream Pod 9. He and his team, which includes Logan, co-host of The Story Told podcast, have taken their love of Tribe 8 and meshed it with the modern Forged in the Dark mechanics to bring this deep, rich setting back to life! It's dark, supernatural, post-apocalyptic fun, waiting to be experienced by anyone who dares.
Currently, they're running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the final art and logistics of the game, and Wil and I had a wonderful chat about it, so listen, enjoy, and, if you're so inclined, support!

August 26, 2025 205: Pittsburgh Gaming Expo 2025 w/ Wizz
It's that time of year again (well actually a little late, but we cover that early on!)
The 2025 edition of the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo is upon us, and it's happening October 3-5th at the Monroville Convention Center, just outside of Pittsburgh proper.
This week I'm joined by Wizz, one of the organizers of the show to have a chat about all the fun and coolness that you can expect to find if you should choose to come to the show! And, if you look around enough, or ask a few folks, you could probably find me as well! (Look for the short, wide guy in the Van Halen print Hawaiian shirt).
