If you like our longer episodes, you’re in for a treat with this one. We had a lot to say this time, and the fact that we recorded this one in two different sections due to some connection issues probably also contributed to the overall length. We start off as […]

Though we’ve done an episode on undeath in general, we figured that ghosts deserved an episode of their own, since they occupy a somewhat unique role in fiction. We start the episode off with a check-in as usual and… last Monday and the days leading up to it were rough, […]
A quick note: our two-week lead time can sometimes mean that a lot happens between when we record an episode and when we release it. On may 25th, four officers of the Minneapolis, MN police department killed George Floyd, an unarmed black man. On May 28th, we recorded this episode […]
In this episode we’re joined by none other than Elizabeth Garn of Christ and Pop Culture. (Elizabeth has written some great articles about faith and gaming and she should be on your radar if she wasn’t already!) We start off the episode with the usual check-in, which includes this time […]
Grant, Peter and Jenny are joined by Jason Brick, veteran freelance writer in the TTRPG industry (and several others besides!). We kick off with a little chatter and swiftly move into our Patreon question from Joseph Linardon who asks ” What would be your dream job?” Answering that takes significantly […]
With the holidays over, we’re back to our normal episode format, and in this one we wrap up the first batch of 3 from our alignment series with Lawful Evil. We start off with a brief holiday check-in and run down some interesting gifts we received and gave. (Guess which […]
We’ve been promising it for a while and here it is, the first episode in our series on alignment. We last talked about alignments as a topic waaaaaayyyy back in episode 2 of the podcast (if you listen, we’re so sorry about the audio quality), and we figured it was […]
#Every33!Mike Perna of Innroads Ministries, Game Store Prophets, and Bard and Bible joins us as he does every 33 episodes to talk about something he’s been itching to talk on the mics about for ages – unlikely heroes with a strong emphasis on Mike Mignola’s Hellboy. We also give a […]
Guest—and possible honorary host—Krissi Woodward joins us this episode to break down her first time running a tabletop roleplaying game! Krissi ran a very successful arc of World of Darkness: Innocents for our gaming group and was willing to discuss that experience with us. First, a little bit about shiny […]
We’re nearing the end of our Ten Commandments series! This episode tackles lying—or as the Ten Commandments are commonly translated, “bearing false witness.” First, though, Peter talks a bit about his entry in the World Anvil worldbuilding contest; we discuss Krissi’s Innocents game and how it wrapped up, as well […]
This week’s topic is a sort of follow-up to our latest episode in our Ten Commandments series, except it’s also entirely City On A Hill Gaming‘s fault, we promise! We’re talking about how to make treasure and wealth in your games exciting and unique without surrendering the player characters’ moral […]
Bryan and Mike from the Geek at Arms podcast join us this week to talk about the unwritten rules at our gaming tables (and elsewhere in our lives!) Geek at Arms is an excellent, thoughtful podcast in the geeky faith space and we’re delighted to have two of its three […]
