Chad, Murf and Dan have a chat with Chris Spivey, experienced Call of Cthulhu Keeper, a writer on Gumshoe One-2-One, and his numerous other projects. We also have a Bestiary about the Dimensional Shambler. This episode was recorded on November 1, 2016.

An update on the MUP 2016 “One Minute of Horror” contest:
The mu-podcast.com email address was not bringing in contest submissions, so we reached out to anyone who has submitted to re-send them to Dan’s gmail account. If you did not hear back from us, let us know!
The final PDF for The Masks of Nyarlathotep Companion has been released to backers. (This fan-driven project has been in the works for nearly a decade.)
Chad got his copy of Mythos Tales in the mail. And it’s amazing. (KS Mentioned way back in Episode 96, kind of an RPG in a box.)
On the less connected, but still geeky-cool, is Manos, the cards of Fate, a card game based on the terrible movie Manos: The Hands of Fate. (Now on Blu-Ray!)
There is a Kickstarter for Leagues of Cthulhu, a Victorian Mythos RPG sourcebook powered by Ubiquity (Hollow Earth Expedition)
