Dang... I've really been on a podcast kick lately, eh?
I always enjoy when I find a little unintentional synergy between the shows. I got that this week in two podcasts to which I frequently listen.
The Podge Cast's Episode 8, otherwise known as the Post Apocalyptic Pronounciation Guide, discusses the appeal of post apocalyptic RPG settings. Adam and Luke have some unique perspective here having co-written the post-apocalyptic Skies of Glass RPG. The guys maintain that fantasy settings are not ideal for post apocalyptic stories...
Meanwhile over on The Games the Thing's Episode 038, Ron and Veronica interview the guys from Greymalkin Designs about their new post-apocalyptic fantasy RPG called Desolation. Ron and Veronica always have terrific guests and this episode is no exception. The boys from Greymalkin paint a great picture of a game I'd like to play. The burn rules for magic sound like an MFT of fun!
These two shows go GREAT together. And if you want to duplicate my experience, listen to them while you rake the pool for the third time in four hours. Freakin' Gustav.
