Have you ever heard of a game and wanted to know more about it through the eyes of someone who has played it already? That's what we do in this episode with the popular RPG (role playing game) Deadlands!
We have some of our favorite people, Team Waerloga, join us on a magical journey! As the novice, Old Man asks a serious of pointed questions about the game he barely knows and tries to learn what it is to be part of this interesting Weird West role playing game.
This round-table was fun and entertaining. Half of that being the people in the room, the other half was feeling their love and joy over this game!
Check out both their LARP, Waerloga and the game Deadlands! Of course, after you listen to the episode.

We deviated from our normal bonus tracks (if they can be called that) to actually talk to all our listeners. We want to try and do something a bit different and we explain in depth what that is.
It doesn't impact our overall goal to support the gaming community. In fact, we feel that it will strengthen and enhance it. But that is also for you to say as part of the community!
So give us a listen and reach out and let us know what you think!

We were able to get the elusive Shoshana Kessock to meet with us at Metatopia 2017 and give an amazing interview.
Shoshana gives a lot of insight to her process. Given the amount and quality of the work she has put out over the years, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is surely one of the top rising game developers of this generation.
Below you will find links to all of the projects she has been part of in one form or another and we're sure you will find something that will grab you.
Truly a professional and all around lovely person, we were honored to interview her.

As two guys fairly new to the podcasting landscape, we tend to play around and figure out how equipment works, how we sound, etc.
One day we decided to record a number of Skeletor's life affirming memes on the internet as Skeletor.
You're welcome.

In March 2018, we will have the next Steven Spielberg movie. Not only is this exciting, but it will be the adaption of the book Ready Player One by Ernest Cline! A book that can be easily described as 80's nostalgia porn or the ultimate fiction about gaming!
We recorded this episode shortly after the initial teaser trailer came out in August of 2017. We make some predictions and give our thoughts. We also drip some sweet love all over Wil Wheaton for his impressive reading of the book on Audible.
Here are some links to the folks we watched and referenced in our episode. Enjoy!

All the way back to Episode 9, we interviewed an extremely talented singer/songwriter/musician by the name of Shawn Hutz aka Erik BPD.
We pulled 3 of the 4 songs he sang for us to make it easier for all of us to enjoy! We didn't put the fourth song on because you should go back to Episode 9 and listen to it! It's also amazing!
Enjoy!

During our very productive day at Metatopia 2017 (produced by Double Exposure, Inc.); we were fortunate enough to sit down with a number of creators of various games.
One such creator was Kelvin Ortega. He is the co creator of the Live Action Role Play game; Aurum. Aurum, a Steampunk LARP; will be holding their first event in March 2018.
Not only do we discuss in great detail their dates and locations, but what kind of game Aurum is and what kind of fun the players can expect once they go live! Some events that they will be at before their first event can be found here.
Kelvin was kind enough to also share some of his extensive gaming experience and advice to those looking to play or create their own larp.
Thank you to Kelvin and the folks at Aurum! We look forward to seeing you at your first event!
Note: There is a part where Old Man is shown photos of some of their NPC costuming. Unfortunately, we can't show them here, but Aurum has let us use some of the pictures from their past events. Enjoy!

So with the New Year upon us, we decided we wanted to share how the magic is created with you! When recording a show, a certain amount of time is dedicated to sound checks and getting levels just right.
Sometimes this means alot of material that is no good for any of our shows. But life finds a way and so did we! Now listen to your heroes have the most inane and nonsensical conversations ever! Or maybe, just maybe, you will hear some bad impression work as well!
We think this bonus track proves the old adage, " We aren't laughing with you, we're laughing at you."
