I know, another episode from me already? Yup. I love it when folks call in because it gives me stuff to talk about. I also talk about my new favorite old setting. 

I received some pushback from my last episode and let it not be sad that I do not give my detractors a voice on my platform. The majority of this episode is dedicated to talk about my new character.

What happened yesterday was started by, encouraged by, and supported by Donald Trump, the worst president this country has ever had. If someone supports Donald Trump, then they are a cultist. They're not a part of a political party. They're members of a very dangerous cult; blindly believing whatever their cult leader tells them. They should be ashamed of themselves, but they're all too stupid, se...

 A quick one to respond to a rad call in from my fellow Pathfinder aficionado, Shawn. I also talk a bit more about the low magic/low fantasy setting I'm putting together. 

A question from Jason deserves a response from Puck himself🤣 I also talk about the gaming I’ve been thinking about lately. Merry Christmas and happy holidays🎄

Just a short one here (that's what he said) where I answer some awesome call in's from Shawn and Jason. Thanks for the messages, boys. 

Third time's the charm. Well, this is only the second time, but two out of three ain't bad. Meatloaf rules! Herein I ACTUALLY tell you about my recent time with  Rise of the Runelords. We're deep into book 5 now and it's still all the way awesome! This was our last session before the New year, so I guess I'll have to come up with something else to talk about for a few weeks. Oh, and I once again (...

I didn't think of the title until I was done recording but I have to give a big shout out to ol' Spikepit for introducing me to that pithy little saying.  Today I talk about the two, count 'em two, sessions of Rise of the Runelords that I played in since my last episode. Later, I postulate about the Pathfinder feat I might ban in my next campaign.  I'm sure you've already noticed, but I am the wor...

I talk about the book I just finished reading, my latest session of Rise of the Runelords, and talk about the unquestionably deadliest part of any RPG. 

Jason's smart enough to get the people he wants to talk to on his show and I'm not, so this is what you get🤣 You're already listening to Nerd's RPG Variety Cast, so you don't need me to tell you how great of a show it is. 

My retelling of the conclusion to book 4 of Paizo's amazing adventure path, Rise of the Runelords. As always, major spoilers abound. Is this the best pre-written, fantasy campaign of all time?? Yes. Have I played them all? No. 

A fairly short and confuse one for me tonight. Thanks to Karl for the info and call in’s. You’re a cool dude. Be good to each other out there folks.

The first 2 minutes of this episode is a highly charged political rant, so feel free to skip it. I had to record it multiple times because the first couple of takes were too... much. This is the toned down version. I put the rant at the start so anyone can skip over it and get right into the rest of the non political episode.  Cheers! I recount the three, count 'em THREE, games I played in this we...

Just a quick re-cap of this week's Rise of the Runelords game. A few folks have mentioned that they enjoy hearing about my sessions, but these re-caps are really more for future Joe than anything else. I think it'll be cool to have a saved memory of my first ever complete Pathfinder Adventure Path. 

It's official. I am, once again, part of the working world. No longer will I have endless free time to plum the depths of gaming minutia. This makes me sad. This opportunity I have is really amazing though. I'll be working directly to better the lives of people. I'm stoked! I'm also stoked about these two messages. A wicked warm congratulatory message from Spencer and an explosive thought experime...

The countdown to my first day on the new job has begun in earnest and I wanted to get in one more episode before the big day. I have a lot to say about last night's totally kick ass session of Rise of the Runelords (major spoilers for Book 4) and I have two awesome messages from Shawn and Jason. Is that one message from each? Two messages each? Some other ratio of messages to caller? Answers to th...

I talk about the first session with my new character, respond to a couple of call in's, and talk about the future. Thanks to Jason, Karl and Barney for the messages. You boys are awesome!

A collection of call in’s. A myriad of messages. A voluminous mass of voice mails. I’m a lucky boy😎 A gigantic thank you to: John of Red Dice Diaries Collin of Spikepit Jason of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast Barney of Loco Ludus Shawn of An Eldritch Dream Games You dudes are awesome!

The tale of my most recent session of our Rise of the Runelords campaign. There are a couple of spoilers for the adventure path, so listen at your own risk. I have a slew of voice messages about my last episode, but I wasn't in the right head space to play them in this episode. I'll get to them next time. I promise. 

Jason of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast was kind enough to leave me some messages about the upcoming Dune movie. Turns out I have stuff to say about it, too. With the world being as messed up and scary as it is today, this quote from Dune is more true now than ever before; "Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over...

Here I go again on my own. Going down the only road I've ever known. Although, unlike a drifter, I apparently was not born to walk alone because a bunch of super rad people called me. So I made up my mind to share them with you.  I got messages about story games from Barney, jargon from Colin, and labels from John. Most importantly of all, I received some whispered words of wisdom from the inscrut...

Folks had stuff to say and here it is. By folks I mean Jason, Barney and Karl. Luckily, none of these message  consist of anyone correcting me, disagreeing with me, or talking trash to me. Oh wait...🤣 A big thank you to Barney, Jason and Carl with a K. Sometimes speech to text is a pain in the ass😎🤷‍♂️🤘

This one starts off hot so maybe don’t listen to it with kids in the car😎 There’s some singing, discussion of character death,and amazing voice messages from Barney, John, and Collin.

I talk about the thing from the Rise of the Rune Lord’s game that I wanted to talk about last episode but I forgot. Next, I also touch on the things one can learn from not running a great session. Lastly, but most importantly, I have some call in’s from the amazing Spencer of Keep off the borderlands and Jason from nerds RPG variety cast

After another short sent away I have returns.
