It’s our one hundred fiftieth episode, and we are excited! We’ve got a lot of people to thank, of course, and spend a couple minutes at the top of the show doing that. We’ve also got a touch of podcast business, and a mention of a recent episode of the […]

Rev. Derek “The GeekPreacher” White joins us once again, and this time it’s even more special than usual. This episode is a sort of test case for a new thing we might be doing with Derek more regularly—having Derek on to talk about specific theological topics from a geek perspective! […]
We’re back with the second half of our unofficial two-parter on angels! (And yes, you can catch up with our first half here.) This time around, we’re discussing how to make angels interesting in your games. First, though, we’ve got some business to catch up on, including GaryCon 2019 (which […]
It’s time for our Patreon-selected topic for the quarter, and this one’s so big it’ll take up two episodes! Our topic this week is angels, and with so much material to work with we just had to break this topic up. This episode has relatively little pure gaming content, because […]
Well, it was inevitable, folks: When we committed to doing a series on The Ten Commandments, we knew we’d eventually have to talk about adultery. Fair warning: This episode does talk about sex. We’re not explicit or anything, but keep that in mind! First, though, we’ve got a few other […]
We’re tackling a difficult and complex topic in this episode: How to roleplay characters with mental illnesses with sensitivity and grace. First, though, we’ve got a bit of other business to talk about, starting with our forthcoming appearances on City on a Hill Gaming (including Jenny’s very cool special episode, […]

Author and game designer Greg Stolze joins us once again, this time to talk about systematically creating good gaming sessions!

Jenny and Peter oversee the promotion of our ongoing series on gamifying Biblical figures with one of the most difficult yet: Samson! Though his story is found in the Book of Judges, Samson is a notorious and often actively awful outlier among Biblical figures. He’s a drunken, womanizing barbarian who […]
Our Ten Commandments series returns with a discussion of the Sixth Commandment: “You shall not murder.” First, though, Jenny’s got a lot of Overlight to talk about! We got to sit down and play it, and it was quite fun. Grant’s also got an Eberron game in the works, and […]
Download this episode (right-click to save) It’s a special Halloween episode, this time on undeath! Well, okay, it’s at least a Halloween episode, and that counts for something. We start things off with a quick update on our Twitch stream schedule (Peter’s streaming Pathfinder: Kingmaker on Wednesdays for a while, […]
