In space, no one can hear you control the weather... Show Notes: Run Time: 2:00:09 Another two hour episode? Must mean we were recording two episodes in one day again! (That's exactly what happened, in fact!)  Welcome to the first of two spooky months! I hope you're ready for so many spooky times! (And some non-spooky times, as well.) This one we really went all out for, in terms of crafting a tal...

The Southwest Sentinels? From Sentinel Comics?! In  this podcast?! You'd better believe it! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:19 We talk about a bunch of issues, story arcs, events, and characters! But then we do also tell a proper Writers' Room style story. And Adam drew a WILD cover! Awesome.  We're about to record two episodes this coming Friday, so send us your questions about Tempest, horror in spac...

We were owned before we even started. We're number... something embarrassingly low... Show Notes: Run Time: 1:39:32 Trevor managed to grab some audio from the streaming video from before we started recording, so you can hear a bit of just how we were not just one-upped, but  several- upped. What a world. And that's not all that happens this show! There's so much more! Even the telling of our upcom...

It's about time! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:26:49 We've told parts of this tale before, but never the whole thing at once, and some of it has never come up before! Also, we talk a bit about temporal positioning, including the when/where/whom of The Chronoist! And, as is the usual thing for us, we answer many questions about a recent past episode. Which one? Benchmark foes! Naturally — he's the new st...

Two issues? What an ideal number. Should would be a shame if someone came along who wanted THREE things instead... Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:33 Finally, you get to hear the story we crafted when we recorded this episode AND the Benchmark foes creative process... and I don't feel like this episode ended up much shorter! Sure, it's shy of the two hour mark, but only by a bit, and there's still plen...

It's the first Creative Process in a long time! Will this become some sort of new standard?! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:03:36 This is the first of two episodes we recorded in one day, and we inteded to go through it (and next week's episode) quickly to make two in one day possible... but look at that run time! Geeze! Well, we probably learned our lesson for next week. Time will tell! We talk a bunch...

Another live show?! In the same month?! Wild. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:41:22 A fun time was had! Plus, we told some true tales, like what we'll be talking about next month! Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, September 3rd: Episode #292 - Writers' Room: Sky-Scraper and Fashion team-up Tuesday, September 10th: Episode #293 - Writers' Room: Time Trust Tuesday, September 17th: Editor's Note #83 Tuesday, Sept...

Welcome to another live show, this one featuring live real trumpet playing by Trevor! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:31:13 A noir-style episode! We had costumes, the afore-mentioned trumpet-playing Trevor, cool(?) accents, and even a smoke machine! There were very cool cosplayers, as well! And even more silly accents. And some live surprises! I was attacked and wrapped up in bubble wrap!  It was a great...

Hello, everyone! We were at Gen Con last week, and boy are our arms tired! We had a tremendous live show that went so well, mostly in thanks to Trevor's impressive skills and the audience's excellent participation. Adam and I were also there! Do you want to hear how it went? Good news! Next week's episode will be that very recording! Join us for that, followed by a live recording for our Patreon f...

Gen Con is upon us! But first: another Legacy story! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:36:28 This is a fun one (we say that a lot) because even though it's  about Legacy, it's not a Legacy-as-the-main-character story. Plus, we get to do fey stuff. SPOILERS! Anyway, short notes this time because I'm writing these in between doing booth setup stuff AT GEN CON! See you soon!

The pre-Gen Con editor's note! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:38:24 We are experiencing physical and psychic aches and pains! A variety of different damage types have been dealt to us! Thus is the way just before Gen Con. I explain "chin tucks" which makes for terrible radio, but here and here are some better explanations! Tuck your chins! (Unsurprisingly, I'm super into people having healthy spines — ev...

Another Legacy episode, but younger! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:22 We're feeling the pressure of the looming Gen Con. Are you gonna be there? Will you be at this event ? We hope so! Also, we talk about the Compile livestreams I've been doing lately with two Matts. Check them out on our Twitch channel ! Next week's episode is an Editor's Note, which means we'll be doing a live recording this coming...

Back from the dead?! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:32:39 We got a [redacted] for Gen Con! Aren't you excited about our [redacted]?! We are! We dive into the history and backstory of Skeleton Key, and then tell some stories, even! What a creepy fella.  Don't worry, we've got more Legacy coming soon! Send us your Legacy questions!

Welcome to July! Let's kick off this Legacy month with the most Legacy book of all time! Front Cover: Back Cover: Entire Wrap: Show Notes: Run Time: 1:48:33 Adam really outdid himself with the cover, and we craft the story that leads to such a cover over the course of this episode! That's how these work! 

We're off to another world!  Show Notes: Run Time: 1:52:48 We hit the ground running with this one, and I've got IDEAS! Do they pan out? Wait and see! Another thrilling tale from the pages of Disparation, just in time for July, which will be mostly about Legacies... and Skeleton Key, I guess? Thanks everyone for listening! If you're interested in more, check out The Letters Page Patreon here !

Good morning, everyone! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:39:10 We've got new branding! Thanks to the amazing art of Adam and the terrible tenacity of Trevor, our website and icons all look better than ever! We've never looked this great before. July has FIVE Tuesdays, and we'll be releasing episodes on each of them!  Upcoming schedule:  Tuesday, July 2nd: Episode #287 - Writers' Room: 4th of July Special:...

W-w-w-w-w-w-wipeout!! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:03:50 That's right, we broke the two hour mark. Again. Sorry! If it makes you feel better, it's because we did an entire limited run of a comic book title! I'll bet you'll never guess which title, though... If you're on the Letters Page Patreon (and if you're not, why not?) join us this coming Friday at 11 AM Central for a live recording of Editor's No...

I'll bet you'll never guess which villains are the dueling stars of this episode. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:40:34 The day of recording was Adam's Birthday! And then, this most recent Saturday was Intergalactic Same Age Day! Did you all enjoy being suddenly and inexplicably 40? Pretty great, right? Heck yeah. Anyway, now everyone is back to their just and proper ages, and it's time to talk about two...

SIX issues in the title?! Yup. Show Notes: Run Time: 2:05:11 Another episode that cracks 2 hours... we didn't set out to tell this much of a tale, but we were on a roll! Plus, we quite like this villainous foil for our beloved Tyler Vance. We also get to questions. A friendly reminder! Please, try to keep your letters UNDER 5ish paragraphs. If you've gotta go over, make it for a good reason. We be...

Howdy, folks! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:42:31 You know the drill! Goofs galore! But first, a schedule! Tuesday, June 4th: Episode #284 - Writers' Room: Two villains who are nemeses Tuesday, June 11th: Episode #285 - Writers' Room: A Wipeout story Tuesday, June 18th: Editor's Note #80 Tuesday, June 25th: Episode #286 - Writers' Room: Disparation: Kismet as High Queen of Planet Earth After that, we ge...

She's winging in for some stories! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:57:33 We delve into just who in Fanatic's supporting cast is around in the mid-80s, and find some small hopes, at least! Then, we tell some tales. Fanatic's a complicated character, especially in the 80s.  Then, we answer questions from the recent Greazer and Fashion episode! Yes, we talk about Cardshark and Kaargra Warfang. Join us next w...

We gotta save the planet! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:37:35 We tell a story... but first, we tell you all the Professor Pollution backstory connecting bits that we'd never bothered to go into before! So, you're welcome! And/or apologies! Depending on how you feel about all that. Anyway, right, then on to the story! You know what ultimately happens in it, but the beat-by-beat is still pretty dang good!...

The end of the Oracle! Show Notes: Run Time: 1:17:50 Look how short this episode is! It's not because anything was ommitted — no, we just knew this whole tale, and told it post-haste! Is it a good tale? That's for YOU to decide! We answer some questions from recent and NOT AT ALL RECENT history. Do the questions ripen with age? Or do they rot? Or neither? So many questions in today's show notes. T...

It's another LIVE SHOW! Or, rather, it was. This is the recording of that live show. Show Notes: Run Time: 1:47:48 We do some goofs, tell some tales, answer letters and questions from chat — everything you've come to expect from an Editor's Note episode! But first! A schedule! Tuesday, May 7th: Episode #281 - Writers' Room: Akash'Bhuta becomes Akash'Thriya Tuesday, May 14th: Episode #282 - Writers...

Looks like it's time for Space Stuff! Show Notes: Run Time: 2:09:45 What's with all these long episodes (for the most part) lately?! We must be catching up for lost time in the first few months of the year. Yeah, that's it — gotta make sure our average episode length smooths itself out.  This episode is just a straight-up continuation of a previous episode: Episode #225 , in fact! Haven't listened...
