August 11, 2018 Raccoon’s Talking Games
Someone left the garbage bins open at the Panda’s Talking Games studio, and look who came wandering in! On this episode, Eric and Rob rummage ’round the rubbish and come up with Grant Howitt and Rach Shelkey. Come hear us all chat about the latest in tabletop raccooning!
Your humble hosts are Eric Farmer and Rob Abrazado. Eric’s game Trash Pandas is available for pay-what-you-want on DriveThruRPG! Rob will go too far to commit to a bit.
Thanks to Grant Howitt, among whose myriad tantalizing games is the super fun Crash Pandas, which started this all and is currently available to Grant’s Patreon backers; it will be publicly available soon! Grant also hosts the gaming “advice” podcast, Hearty Dice Friends.
Thanks also to Rach Shelkey, organizer at Breakout, Toronto’s finest gaming convention, and co-host of the excellent Powered-by-the-Apocalypse podcast +1 Forward. Keep an eye out for the next supplement for Golden Sky Stories, The Colors of the Sky Volume 2, coming soon!
Special thanks to Misdirected Mark Productions for supporting our shenanigans, and all love to Senda and Phil of the real Panda’s Talking Games.

August 06, 2018 Panda’s Talking Games 118 – Out of Control Tables Part 2: Kumquats
Show us how you manage out of control campaigns! Since we talked about in session table control issues last week but went a little out of control ourselves, we’re finishing up Kevin’s topic this week with the campaigns. Also, does John Arcadian sing to his wife? What will be the name of Bob’s new podcast? Can we ever get this show started? Also, the biggest build up for the least excitement: kumquats. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

July 30, 2018 Panda’s Talking Games 117 – Out of Control Part 1
Show us how you handle an out of control table (or podcast?) at a convention! Phil and Senda talk about signs of the table being out of control, how to tell if it’s actually a problem or not, and how to help manage it as a player if it is. Also, the very first accidental installment of Pandalell Timelines, Phil is old, Laminations of the Panda Queen (with our favorite Minister of Tumbleness), congrats to Ryan on Baby Boelter, the metal straw, Senda’s cat the purr and fur murder machine, pregame socialization, there weren’t any new reviews, and yes there were a lot of outtakes because this podcast was out of control. Oh the irony.
