About this listen

 You can’t spell Game Master without “pretentious.” Well, you can, actually. But let’s pretend you can’t so I can make a point. My point is a good Game Master needs a lot of big, fancy words at their disposal to make their flavor text as confusing as possible. Oops. I mean engaging, not confusing.

    Lost Episode 17
    Sep 29 2021

    Yes, once again it is time for another of our world famous Lost Episodes.

    The problem is, there’s been a whole bunch of extenuating circumstances, which we try to explain somewhat unsuccessfully. But at least you get to hear some bits about swords, socks, and ninjas, along with a couple of people who really were in charge, like it or not. The whole episode just oozes with predicaments for you to try to sort through.

    We’re switching up our means of support. Now, if you’d like to help support the show and want less of a hassle than Patreon used to be, we can direct you straight to Buy Me A Coffee, instead. Check it out at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Fiddleback

Because we all know what a giant is. But then again, do we? And what does it all have to do with basketball and the Air Force? Find out, inside.

    Whip
    Sep 1 2021
    Everything is already in shape around here, so we’ll discard that pun immediately. But otherwise, we have an episode for you about whips and their varied uses. Except, obviously, we have to agree to some ground rules about our discussion before we start. They aren’t the most popular of Dungeons and Dragons weapons, but maybe there’s a reason for that. Let’s find out. And then! After the credits roll on GM Word of the Week, let’s take a listen to the new show, FolkLiar. What could that possibly be about?

I've been listening to this podcast for years, at this point. I never regret listening. sometimes I learn things, sometimes I get to gloat that I already knew something, sometimes I get to laugh at ridiculous things, but I always, always enjoy myself.
