We interview Dave Blewer about his new Savage Worlds plot point setting, Sundered Skies, due out in May. We had some internet-based problems with sound that were fixed to the best of our ability. Please excuse the issue. If any clarification is needed, stop by the Pinnacle forums.

After a hiatus in excess of three months, we're back.

Our friend Jen Decker joins us for this RPG extravaganza! We discuss Jared Sorensen's InSpectres (published by Memento Mori Theatricks), Robin Laws' The Esoterrorists (published by Pelgrane Press), and our own homebrew post-apocalyptic Savage Worlds campaign.

Hey, folks! Just wanted to check in and let you know that TGTT will be back soon. It's looking like we'll have at least one (maybe two) February show.

What have we been doing? I'm glad you asked!

Everyone knows I'm in the retail industry. Even selling games gets hectic during the Winter holiday season, and my store was no different. I just finished with all the post-holiday stuff you do in retail (like inventory). Life is starting to get back to normal.
