  • E487 - Why Do I Enjoy Swords & Wizardry So Much?

    I see Swords & Wizardry as the OSR's Rosetta Stone, as it allows all OSR adventures to work with it without many issues, and visa versa. Also, Shire Con this Saturday!

  • E486 - What to Do if Your PCs Never Retreat

    It was probably my fault, but in my high school and college days, my group would never retreat, and I didn't like killing PCs. A horrible combination.

  • E485 - Addressing Game Balance in a Convention Session

    I was asked about game balance, and it made me think about game balance in convention play - which is different than campaign play.

  • E484 - Some Suggestions to Help Prospective Bloggers, Podcasters and Youtubers

    I often get asked the secrets to success with my blog and podcast. There is no secret - hard work and a long history of doing. But there are some strategies that can help in the long run (and should be instituted from the beginning.)

  • E483 - Sign a Social Contract So You Can Game?

    Would you sign a social contract so you could game? If you need to sign a contract, binding or not, is it still a hobby?

  • E481 - Remembering 9-11

    I stray away from gaming today as 9-11 is a day I'll never forget. I give my perspective as one that responded to the Towers right before they came down. Never forget.

  • E480 - RANT Warning - The World Does Not Conform to Your Demands

    I read some feedback on Jason Hobbs re-releasing his Hobbs & Friends Interview with Alex Macris. The demands made by "Facebook Friends" to make the world conform to their vision simply pisses me off. No one is forced to listen to a podcast or a blogpost.  The presence of such does not define your world unless you continually define your world via negativity.
