This week it's a conversation about stealing techniques from different sources, inspired by a wonderful little Canadian drama series called Cardinal. We have a bit of a chat around things like intertwining story elements, wrapping those elements up, and how sometimes looking at something different can help you learn new things!

When is it ok to go how zany in a game? And how do you "control" the table to keep the tone of the session where you'd like it?

That's exactly what we have a chat about in this week's episode!

This week I'm joined by JT Dimino for a chat inspired by a combination of a cheap Bluetooth speaker and a song by Megadeath!

We have a bit of a chat around making sure that you're getting the point you intend to across to your table while you're GMing! Also there's some talk about finding help and information in unexpected places.

Welcome to the finale for this short Monster of the Week game. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did playing it!

Terry was able to make this session, though Hagen wasn't feeling well and couldn't make it, but we continued on to finish this short story.

As folks are I'm sure familiar, sometimes everyone just can't make it, so we just played with who was there!

We recorded this in late spring of 2024, right before I had to switch shifts at work, so it was kind of a 'last hurrah' for the group that had dubbed themselves "Those Guys".

A big "Thank You!" to Ben for once again running the game, and to Terry, Eric, Hagen, and Steve for coming along for the fun! I hope you all enjoy!
