Welcome RPG Ramblings with Jeff Jones. This a weekly show exploring the various details of the TableTop RPG hobby through discussions with interesting people.
Today I hang out with Diogo Nogueira, a prolific designer, writer and artists in the RPG industry. A lot has happened since we last talked, include his winning an Ennie for writing “The Halls of the Blood King.” We talk about adventure writing and discuss his newest project, Kosmosaurs. It is an RPG about dinosaurs who protect the Galaxy from Evil Forces. Sounds like it ticks all the boxes needed for having a good time.

Welcome RPG Ramblings with Jeff Jones. This a weekly show exploring the various details of the TableTop RPG hobby through discussions with interesting people.
This week Trevor Stamper joins me. You may know him as one of the masterminds behind the zine series, “Tales of the Smoking Wyrm.” I am not sure how to title this episode, so I am settling on Shop Talk. After I ended the podcast, we kept talking. There was some good stuff in that section, so I tack that onto the end of the episode.
Sisters and brothers, we have a lot of ground to cover. It is time to leave the warm hearth, put on our cloaks, and get rambling.
