The Steam Rollers Adventure Podcast,     Season 4: "The Curse of the Glass Witch"   Episode 284, Chapter 5 "Mary Warty Timey Wimey"

Nissa fries her tubes when the other bots convince her to break down how many nanoseconds the show has been running.

In this episode, we reconnect with the famous Martin Barnett. We find out what he did in (or how he missed) the war, and what happens when he reunites with the witch Adrienne "Shade" Boothe.

FIGURE 284A:            An idea of what Mr. Barber is looking to sell Martin. My notes to Ray were ("Yes, it would have a tail, wings, and there would be an engine on each wing instead of the nose"). Art pulled from Dreamstime.com as a reference for fuselage size.

The Steam Rollers Adventure Podcast,     Season 4: "The Curse of the Glass Witch"  Episode 283, Chapter 4 "Boxcars at The Bluffs"

The bots get nervous when the Storycrafter warns them that the end of this episode is scary.

In this episode, we're reunited with Percy "Spade" Alexander, the leader of the North American Boxcar Boys, an organization of gunslingers who rob from the rich to give to the poor. Unfortunately, the Great War took its toll on the Boxcars, deteriorating their Robin Hood nature. Today we join Percy as he visits Canner Bluffs to bring some rogue boys to justice.

OH NO! SRAP WENT AWAY AGAIN!

Not quite!

The bad news: A fire destroyed my home and I lost everything. The cases and boxes that held our notes, notebooks, dice, and the famous wooden steampunk gear-adorned DM screen I use when I host the show. In fact, this recording was recorded on a cheap headset mic. Please forgive the puffs and pops.

The good news: But...my computer, backup drives, archives, art files, and more were saved!

This announcement is just to let you know we're all okay. No one in my building was injured, and slowly but surely we're all finding new homes. I'm in the process of moving now, and that's why we've missed putting out the last couple of episodes.

Not to worry! They're still here. I just won't be able to hunker down at my desk and edit for a couple weeks yet. If everything goes according to my plan (and I'm ahead of schedule so far), the story will resume with the May episode.

Until then... Be safe!
