I’ve been enjoying this one a lot. I’m glad you mentioned it.
I’ve also been listening to Sam Harris’s podcast lately. I had never read any of his books, but I like some of his discussions with scientists and philosophers. (I discovered his podcast in a search for interviews with one in particular.)
Or letting the table interact. Griffin’s extreme world telling and the table’s individual making up something on the fly in response has been grating for a while. I never felt the weight of a 100 year journey with the same people.
I think a lot of this can be attributed to Griffin being a novice GM but also they’re still playing DnD which is definitely not the system for their group.
I have been wholly besotted with synthetic grape flavour far back as I can recall, and dismayed at its appalling rarity in Brexitannia, so this week’s episode of The Nod appealed fierce
I need to go nab a bottle of neroli now apparently
The podcast I’m looking for consists of people who aren’t internet shitheads (fuck the McElroys seriously), treat games with the skepticism they deserve and exhibit the self-awareness of people who engage with the world outside the sphere of videogame “culture”.
I guess what I want is the video game version of the Factual Opinion Podcast? Or maybe I just want more episodes of the Insert Credit cast
I mean, I’m clinically depressed and can spew hateful kneejerk bile for an hour. I just need a crossfit obsessed bro who’s middling funny when he goes off on subjects he doesn’t actually bother informing himself about beforehand to parter with and I could deliver such a product.
Yeah, I was confused about that too, the McElroys don’t come off as internet shitheads at all imo, unless you’ve only listened to, like, the first episode of MBMBAM from back in 2010.
Duckfeed’s podcasts are great. Watch Out for Fireballs, Abject Suffering, and Bonfireside Chat are all a ton of fun. I don’t know if jodeaux would like them though, since they A. are extremely online and B. don’t tend to go on in-depth critical dissections of games they hate.
