Episode 92 of The Gauntlet Podcast is here! In this one, I sit down with Fraser Simons to discuss his upcoming project, Cascade, as well as all things cyberpunk.

This was a fun interview for me. I’ve gotten to know Fraser pretty well over the last year, and I consider him a good friend. I’m glad we were able to get him on the show.

Enjoy!

Here’s a link to Episode 91 of The Gauntlet Podcast! In this one we discuss some of our play experiences with Spirit of 77, MASHED, and Gauntlet League Wrestling (our World Wide Wrestling promotion).

A quick note: Kate was having internet trouble on the night we recorded, which is why she is introduced at the top of the show, but doesn’t actually say much throughout.

We currently have seven different Comic Strip APs in production. In order to make listening to them easier, I have put each into their own YouTube playlist. That way, say, if you just want to listen to the Sorcerer episodes, rather than scroll around your podcast app to find them all, you can simply fire up the Sorcerer YT playlist.

This should make enjoying Comic Strip AP significantly easier for a lot of people.

Enjoy (and re-share!)

This week on The Gauntlet Podcast, Kate Bullock and I are joined by Avery Alder of Monsterhearts fame to discuss violence in roleplaying games. The discussion focuses on why we tend to default to violence, and how to make space for different kinds of outcomes. It’s a terrific discussion, probably one of the best we’ve ever had on the show.

And big thanks to Steve Mains for the tight edit on this one (and those great stingers!)

Also: Giving Me Bleed!

Enjoy!

Our monster finally makes its appearance in Monster of the Week: The Lombardi School 06!

This episode is just dripping with tension. Tom McGrenery and I have been telling a story that is one part To Catch a Thief and one part Suspiria, and those two styles smash right into each other in this one. I think you’re going to like it.

I am pleased to present the newest member of the Comic Strip AP family, The Indie Hack! Slade Stolar, the author of the game, and his buddy Michael will be producing this series.

This one features the story of Abel, Hand of the Three Ladies, an exorcist traveling through the fetid swamps of Kalax Nur. If that sentence didn’t tip you off (or the fact that Slade is running it), this story has a really strong old-school flavor. It’s a fun change of pace for Comic Strip AP.

I have listened to the first three episodes, and in addition to the old-school vibe of the story, you’re also going to get a really good sense of how The Indie Hack as a system works. You’ll get to see the push and pull of the core die mechanic, and how both player and GM inform the fiction.

Enjoy!
