I've been asked to give my thoughts on how to vet Kickstarter Projects. While far from a complete list on the topic, I do share some thoughts on the matter.

Yep, today marks three years of retirement for me, and although the month of July has been hectic with personal and family obligations, I do have plans for the summer. Revised blog and possibly a short, monthly zine.

During tonight's weekly Tavern Chat on the Tavern's Discord server, James Spahn brought up a new RPG Quickstart - the 122 page Against the Dark Master clone of Middle Earth Role Playing. You've been warned.

In Season 3 of Stranger Things, D&D still plays a role, but it is shown more as something of the time of childish things to be left behind. Although I talk about the place of D&D, as for the plot of Season 3, it is a spoiler free podcast ;)

Voicemails from Tim and Ivy Shorts as well as Glen Halstrom. Yes, I revisit low ability scores and controlling you own voice. Never put your integrity in the hands of others.

Ah, sweet "I'm a gonna punch Tenkar in the f'n throat!" Gareth. He sneaks a Far West update in on his dead intothefarwest.com website. How do you control the narrative? When you force conversations into forums you control.
