The Cocked Die

In today's Episode I chat with Fenway Jones, founder, and spokesperson for Jasper's Game Day. Jasper's raises funds and awareness for suicide prevention.

Also, as you all know, Quest for the Cure continues on Dec 5th at 8 pm ET.

But what you didn't know is one person is going to win a seat at the table; which table? Oh the one with Ed Greenwood, Amy Lynn Dzura, Emma Wakelin, Blair Brown, and Eric Morden, of course.

Yep! That table.

Today I'm chatting with Shawn Merwin, one of the most prolific D&D creators of his generation. He's been credited in numerous Wizards of the Coast products, and has worked with a number of different companies to produce their RPGs including Star Trek: Adventures.

He's currently the resource manager for the Eberron: Oracle of War campaign.

The guy is literally teaching the class on RPG design, at Freedonia University.

And to top it off, he's just the most generous and humble guy you can imagine. I am so excited to share my interview with Shawn Merwin.
