  • 189: Shopping
    2025/03/25

    Shopping, it's perhaps the most low-key divisive thing we commonly do in games. Some love doing it, some hate doing it, and some don't care much either way. So how do you keep the whole table interested? Or how do you keep you interested? That's kinda what we chat around in this episode. Also worth noting, we're likely going to skip a week or 2 with releases, as I'm madly trying to work extra OT at work, prepare stuff to take with me to GamerNation Con, get things taken care of in regular life before I go off on the trip, and so on.

  • MotW: Trouble in Progress Junction: ep 2
    2025/03/18

    Welcome to the first session of play for this short Monster of the Week game. As folks are I'm sure familiar, sometimes everyone just can't make it, so we just played with who was there!

    We recorded this in late spring of 2024, right before I had to switch shifts at work, so it was kind of a 'last hurrah' for the group that had kind of dubbed themselves "Those Guys".

    A big "Thank You!" to Ben for once again running the game, and to Terry, Eric, Hagen, and Steve for coming along for the fun! I hope you all enjoy!

  • 188: Anthologies (The Steve Way!)
    2025/03/11

    Let it never be said we don't listen to our listeners! This week we answer a question a listener posted on our Discord (see link at the top of the page, or further down in the notes here) expand a bit on a concept we've mentioned a few times on the show. That being "Anthology Campaigns". For us, they're just another way to tell a story, and maybe also to just engage ourselves a little more, so listen and enjoy!

    2025/02/25

    Howdy folks! This week we split our discussion between 2 topics, the first, the much maligned trope of "Murder Hobos" (because episode 187), and the other, in-game communication, and how it can, and can be used to, affect the story you're telling.
