1 00:00:15,170 --> 00:00:17,410 Hello and welcome to the Weekly Scroll Podcast. 2 00:00:17,410 --> 00:00:21,330 My name is Ryan. I'm sorry, the thought was 3 00:00:21,330 --> 00:00:24,210 knocked out of my head by the screaming dogs outside. 4 00:00:26,770 --> 00:00:30,010 And I'm Jared, your guest this week. 5 00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:33,040 Did y'all hear that? I did not. 6 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,720 Oh my God. Yeah, but yeah, so Jared's here, 7 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,120 which means this is a not cat chat number doesn't matter 8 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,920 anymore because we don't, we don't, we don't number it that 9 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,200 way. I I still kind of do. 10 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,520 It's like 15 or something like that. 11 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:53,080 But but welcome, Jared, because last month you, you weren't, we 12 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:54,360 didn't have one. You weren't here. 13 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,080 We skipped because we were at Gen. 14 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,120 Con and then exhausted after Gen. 15 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,400 Con. Makes sense? 16 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,200 Yep, I'm still kind of exhausted after Gen. 17 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,640 Con. Yeah, I feel that way too. 18 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,400 I. Didn't even get up. 19 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,760 Yeah, but so what'd you do with your, what'd you do with your 20 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,680 month off? Me. 21 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,240 Yes, yeah. What have I done with my month 22 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,640 off? Not really a month off. 23 00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:28,840 We, we won an innie at Genton, which was pretty super exciting 24 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,120 and caught us completely unaware. 25 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:37,440 We had, no, I did not feel like we had a that I hope in hell to 26 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:42,080 take home any awards. As usual, the nomination is the 27 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,960 award to me, which means at least that people pulled it and 28 00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:49,000 it got shortlisted and then people actually like hopefully 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,240 read it. But yeah, it caught us unaware. 30 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:59,040 We were the first award of the night and it was definitely 31 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,040 panic, panic moment. So I just rattled off the thank 32 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,480 you for everything, thank you everybody, thank you for the 33 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,560 team thing and named people as quickly as I can. 34 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,320 And then Debbie said her piece and then we got off the stage 35 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:18,720 and then there were some crying. So that was that was that was an 36 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,200 interesting time. Got to see a bunch of people, 37 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,000 got to see Ryan, got to see a bunch of other folks, got to 38 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,160 play some board games. It's weird. 39 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,280 Go to gaming conventions and I don't really end up playing RPGs 40 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,480 much, but I do end up playing board games, which was pretty 41 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,880 fun. We played a Speed Talisman one 42 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,640 night, which was pretty good. We managed to complete a full 43 00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:47,720 game using our house rules and about an hour and a half, which 44 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,920 is pretty good for Talisman. For those of you who have 45 00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:53,120 played, Talisman is the game of no skill. 46 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,280 It's just dice rolling and moving around a board and 47 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:02,080 collecting things and then going going to the center of the board 48 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,480 to either depending on which version you're playing, if 49 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,840 you're trying to cast the the control spell at the current 50 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,080 command or if you're just trying to get to the crown of command. 51 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,240 But we have some house rules that we use the dungeon 52 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,600 expansion with it. So if you get all the way 53 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,800 through the dungeon, the door opens up into the crown of 54 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,360 command and then you win the game. 55 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,320 Tada. And I won the game, which was 56 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:25,880 pretty fun. Nice. 57 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,280 Yeah. And you did this edge income? 58 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,920 Yeah, we played this late night hobo Nomicon style so. 59 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,640 Yeah, yeah. I played nothing and I did 60 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,760 nothing in the con. I found the the shortest 61 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,720 distant, like the door that gets me closest to the the main hall 62 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,720 there. And I went in there every day, 63 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,280 went in there and then just left from there like every day and 64 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,120 didn't really explore any of the rest of Gen. 65 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,840 Con, which was fine, but I wish I would at least bounce over the 66 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,400 stadium and checked out some of the games over there. 67 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,880 But maybe if I ever do it again. We actually got kicked out of 68 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,160 the board game area at the stadium because we did not know 69 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:17,839 that we had to have that. The timing of being using the 70 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,399 board game library was ticketed, so we didn't bother to get a 71 00:04:21,399 --> 00:04:23,440 ticket. And when we got there, a nerd 72 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,840 with a badge told us that we had to leave, even though we had 73 00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,680 just picked up a brand new board game off the shelf. 74 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,880 And we're punching it and we're getting ready to set up to 75 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,440 actually play the game. I made the mistake of leaving 76 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,480 the game area to get water. And when I came back through, Do 77 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,920 you have a lanyard? Do you have a lanyard? 78 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,800 So I, yeah, so and I was, it was weird because yes, I had a 79 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,520 lanyard, but he meant was do I have a little wristband around 80 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,600 my lanyard that showed that we were supposed to be in there at 81 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,600 that time? I had no idea. 82 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,120 I've been to quite a few conventions in my time and Gen. 83 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,200 Con's previously and not had this sort of problem with 84 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:09,600 looking at board games and being able to play board games. 85 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:16,760 So fuck you, I'm never going to attend that section of Gen. 86 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,320 Con again so. Well, obviously the room was 87 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,920 completely jam packed and there was nowhere for you guys to be 88 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,480 right. Not was not the case. 89 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,960 It was the free play area and there were countless tables open 90 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,600 and plenty of board games for people to play. 91 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:36,600 Yeah, but you give some useless little person like a little bit 92 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,720 of power and they'll wield it like a fucking sword, you know? 93 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,120 And that's exactly what he did. You know, play. 94 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,520 OK, dude, you're we get it. Yeah, you're in charge. 95 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,800 Nerds with badges. Nerds with badges. 96 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,000 Yeah, a cab includes nerds with badges. 97 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,680 Yeah, I've done a bunch of interviews in the last two 98 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,720 weeks, and every time it was just like, so Gen. 99 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,040 Con, so Gen. Con, so Gen. 100 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,800 Con, and now it feels like it's so far away. 101 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,680 But it really was just like last month, huh? 102 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,120 I guess it was. Yeah, it was about a month ago. 103 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,520 Yeah, crazy. And we got packs coming up here 104 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,080 soon. Nice. 105 00:06:16,280 --> 00:06:19,000 Are you guys going? Yeah, I don't think I'm going 106 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,280 this year. Yeah, I'm going. 107 00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:24,840 I'm going to be running the World Champ booth again, but 108 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,240 Adam will actually be there, so me and Adam will be running it 109 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,920 together, so that'll be cool.

We're skipping this year because 112 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:37,400 they scheduled it the same week as the marathon and just dealing 113 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,400 with all the extra people from the marathon does not seem like 114 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:46,000 a very fun situation. We don't booth at most shows, so 115 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,840 it's kind of one of those. We do have Quest Con Orlando 116 00:06:49,840 --> 00:06:52,280 coming up that we're booting at, so that'll be fun. 117 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,240 That's a small regional con. It's going into its fourth year, 118 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,280 so hoping for more people open for more foot traffic. 119 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,080 It's really, you'd love it, Ryan. 120 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:09,000 It's tied in with Crucible, which is a big 40K tournament. 121 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,720 Well, it's a it's a war gaming tournament that happens at the 122 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,400 same time, but primarily 40K is like a lot of what it's the 123 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:17,840 biggest name. It's what people play. 124 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,000 And so, but there's going to be cool demo all day demo 125 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,160 paintings. They're they're doing it right. 126 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,160 So you can do paint and takes all day. 127 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,760 So I'm going to use my lunch break time to go do a paint and 128 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,360 take instead of eating lunch, which is neat. 129 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,520 And then Tahina Gaming is going to be there and they're going to 130 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,680 be running like 96 hours of liminal horror on the books. 131 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,600 So we're going to have a bunch of people playing liminal 132 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,120 horror, which is pretty cool. Nice. 133 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,680 And hopefully selling some liminal horror and some other 134 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,480 stuff like that. And we're taking Karen Boxers, 135 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,880 we're taking all of our new releases, newer releases since 136 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,320 last year. And the, and the old standby is 137 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,360 like, of course we'll take Forbidden Psalm and we'll take 138 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,120 mothership box set and things like that. 139 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,960 So stuff that we know that people will be actively 140 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,600 interested in. Yeah, it's going to be fun. 141 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,520 It's The One Show a year that we actually exhibit at. 142 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,360 Well, aside from some like trade shows and stuff that we do like 143 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,560 ACD day and stuff. But this one is where we're 144 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,240 actually in the booth for three days. 145 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,960 So it's going to be long and grueling and hopefully fun. 146 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,520 That sounds fun. I I want to start Gen. 147 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,679 Con was cool, but I want to do smaller cons. 148 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,559 I feel like a, they're less expensive, you know, relatively 149 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,280 short, easy to get to and things like that. 150 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,760 I really wanted to do. Is it crit Con? 151 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,160 I think is what we were just talking to people about and that 152 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,000 thing that I sent you before Hunter, the like the one that's 153 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,400 in Portland. Yes, Crit con. 154 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,640 Yeah. And the painting thing is what I 155 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,240 want to do at at Gen. Con. 156 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,720 I really wanted to sign up for some of the painting classes and 157 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,760 and some of the same people are doing them at this crit con and 158 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,440 I want to go do like painting like this is how to paint flesh 159 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:05,600 better. And I'm like, I'd love that. 160 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:06,160 I'd love to. Paint. 161 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,800 That does sound like a lot of fun. 162 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,200 I'd love to do that. But maybe I'll make it to 163 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,800 Orlando one of these days. I, I think I've been to Florida. 164 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,000 I think when I was like too young to remember I was in 165 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,360 Florida. But I've never been to Florida 166 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,760 as like an adult or even a child old enough to really remember 167 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,120 it. So I'll have to bounce down to 168 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,440 Orlando maybe some of these times. 169 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,960 Don't bring any clothes, you won't need them. 170 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,040 It's exhausting being outside. It's definitely best best to 171 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,800 stay inside down here. So I tried to do yard work this 172 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,040 morning. This is how exciting my life is. 173 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,680 I tried to do yard work this morning at 8:00 AM before the 174 00:09:42,680 --> 00:09:45,360 sun got impressively hot and it decided to rain today. 175 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,360 So I got exactly 1 Bush weeded. But I got that one Bush weeded 176 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,720 and it looks good. So that's for the weekend. 177 00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:57,320 Yeah, Yard. Work is about little steps every 178 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,480 day, you know. Oh, it's a we got a cool day 179 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,120 today here. It's it's cooled off recently. 180 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,960 It's only going to be a high of 88. 181 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,160 Oh yeah, I think my high is way lower today. 182 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,160 So what is it? Yeah. 183 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,360 We've been triple digits for a while here, but yeah, you know, 184 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,280 cooling off into the the high 80s. 185 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,680 So yeah, there's more little cons and stuff. 186 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,160 High Day 78. You know. 187 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:31,360 Smaller shows, smaller shows are really fun, like they're because 188 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,680 especially if you're not working them, like that's the other 189 00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:35,920 thing you should do a show where you're not working it, where 190 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,960 you're going around and just being a civilian. 191 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,360 I think that would be pretty fun for you. 192 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,200 Yeah, yeah, for sure. I mean, Jim Con, I only did like 193 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,760 4 hours so I had like the whole morning and the whole afternoon. 194 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:51,000 But you know, I definitely just slept in every day until I had 195 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,360 to go into work at like 2. So I definitely put some more 196 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,960 time in there. But also like pretty much I 197 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,680 thought of you and you and Debbie. 198 00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:01,760 Pretty much everyone I knew there was booting. 199 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,000 So didn't have like a ton of people like walk around and hang 200 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,400 out with during the day anyway. Just went out like every night. 201 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,080 That's pretty much what I did. It's just went out every night 202 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,800 in Indy or hung out at the hotels and, you know, try to 203 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,560 play some games. But but yeah, definitely the 204 00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:16,920 smaller ones. It's just, you know what the 205 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,920 killer is? This is just the airfare because 206 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,680 most of the ticket prices aren't too bad. 207 00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:24,800 But when you're trying to fly to Philadelphia or whatever and 208 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,000 you're paying like 800 plus bucks for for tickets, it's 209 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:34,280 crazy. Yeah, yeah, but but we'll see. 210 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,400 And go drive to Portland. You should spend that 800 bucks 211 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,680 on a train ticket and take the Amtrak next time. 212 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,920 It'll take you. It'll take you several days, but 213 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,240 it'll be a fun adventure. That's true. 214 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,120 Well, then it also goes into like time off from work is the 215 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,160 other problem. The way my work schedule is set 216 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,440 up, you know, are we only, I only work four days a week and 217 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,160 with the job that I have, like everyone's schedule is, is 218 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:00,680 different. We don't have like a Monday 219 00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:04,080 through Friday or whatever. And I like mine because I work I 220 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:09,520 pretty much do like 2 on, 2 off, 3 on, 2 off, 3 on. 221 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,920 Like there's basically 222 or three in there, but I only ever 222 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,240 get 2 off in a row. So anytime I want to take like 223 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,560 four or five days, I have to take like 2 chunks of my time 224 00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:20,760 off. So I end up having to take like 225 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,120 four or five vacation days and we accrue like one a month. 226 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,440 So taking, taking four days off work is like four months worth 227 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:34,160 of PTO. So when other people, literally 228 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,280 there's somebody who works like 6 on and then gets 8 off, they 229 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,400 could just take 8 days off every time. 230 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,960 That's bullshit. So yeah, but. 231 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:42,280 I would never. What about? 232 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:43,640 I would. What about ones? 233 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,960 What about ones in your state that you could drive to? 234 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,000 Or I live in a very big state. Yeah. 235 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,800 Is it the same? It's the same as Florida. 236 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,840 Like if you want to get into a vehicle and drive, you're 237 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,720 probably driving like 5 or 6 hours to get out of the state. 238 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,360 Yeah, I'm in, I'm in. Northern California, if I want 239 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,760 to get to LA with like no traffic, it's a good like 5 hour 240 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,720 drive and of course there's going to be traffic. 241 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,560 But you know, I don't think they do a lot of stuff in Northern 242 00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:14,800 California, but it's whatever. I mean, I'll fly, it's fine. 243 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,320 I mean, it's not hard to get a weekend off. 244 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,840 I can usually trade with people. I mean, I'm on like a six day 245 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,920 stretch off right now because people needed some trades and it 246 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,440 just happened to work out. So it is what it is. 247 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,840 But anyway, yeah, I plan to do a bunch of stuff next year. 248 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,600 I want to start, I want to do under the Dice Fest. 249 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,280 I'm definitely going to do packs again. 250 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,520 I'm glad I got to see you at least at Gen. 251 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,360 Con since you're not coming to pack, but are you going to go to 252 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,440 PAX next year? If you, if it's, if it's normal 253 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,600 time. Probably if they don't put it up 254 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,640 the same weekend against the marathon, Yes, Yeah. 255 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,720 So. That definitely sucks terribly. 256 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:57,240 It does suck terribly, but, you know, I did get my tickets and 257 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:04,560 my hotel in like June though, because I heard, you know, I 258 00:14:04,560 --> 00:14:07,200 think you're the one that told me that was around the marathon. 259 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,840 So I just jumped on and grabbed all of it. 260 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:13,440 Quick, what's up? Yeah, we'll see. 261 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,280 We'll see what happens with that. 262 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,120 But I, I want to start doing a lot more cons. 263 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,960 I want to start doing other stuff, get out of this shit hole 264 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,280 here and actually see people, since no one I know actually 265 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,520 lives anywhere near me. I think maybe the closest person 266 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,640 is Stella. I mean, she's less than two 267 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,720 hours away from me and she's like the closest person I know 268 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,160 that lives anywhere near me. How many hours away am I? 269 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:40,400 Bro, I don't fucking know. So yeah. 270 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,840 So it's about the same distance from me to you as it is for like 271 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:49,400 me to LA. Anyway. 272 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,160 So like 5 hours in a car. Five hours in a car is always a 273 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,440 good time. You get a lot of good playlist 274 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,080 listening done. You know, five hours isn't too 275 00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,360 bad. Well, when I was in LA it was 276 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:04,320 only 6 hours to Vegas. So yeah, but it is what it is. 277 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,880 So. But you are back this month even 278 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,720 it's a little bit early for new releases. 279 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,280 You do have some new releases coming out because last month 280 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:13,840 was the first. Was that the first time since 281 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,880 you started that? Yeah. 282 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,240 It was the first time in two plus years that we did that. 283 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,280 We had taken a month off from solicits, we had stuff in the 284 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,920 shoot that we could have gone with, but we just wanted to take 285 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:33,520 a month off and from pushing new stuff and just to see what would 286 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,640 happen. So I don't think we'll be 287 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,160 skipping again in the future unless it's a month where we 288 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,440 just don't have a project. But we've been, we've been lucky 289 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,120 enough that we've had projects that have filtered through and 290 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,360 that time through. And then like the crowd funds 291 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,120 get wrapped up and then they can be sent out like this month's 292 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:57,280 like survivors of the core wars. Like we can actually, yeah, 293 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,120 there we go. It's actually, it's actually 294 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:05,160 been in our warehouse here already for a couple of months 295 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,240 and like fulfilled and ready to go. 296 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,160 But we just scheduled it out later. 297 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,520 So I'm still trying to get the perfect hang on how to do that. 298 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,960 But how did you like the fulfillment versus like when it 299 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,440 hits the shop? Right on, like how on how quick 300 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,400 to send something to the shop? It kind. 301 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,200 Of feels like it kind of feels like when movies had DVD 302 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,320 releases, you always wonder like it'll hit the theaters and like 303 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,240 6 months later it'll hit like DVDI feel like that's what this 304 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,760 feels like now with Kickstarter stuff. 305 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,960 It's like you Kickstarter stuff. And then how long until the DVD 306 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,440 release, AKA the physical release of the, the product. 307 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,400 So, but for those that don't know what survivors of the core 308 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,520 wars was or or backed it, what, what is this that's in my hands? 309 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:55,560 So it's a deck of 50 NPCS for mothership and it's got a little 310 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,840 instruction booklet too, but each one of them for those at 311 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,440 home, I'm holding up some of the cards and what they look like. 312 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,880 Each one of each one of them. Yeah, that's Bose. 313 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,280 And I'll like just totally. They just totally destroyed on 314 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:18,599 the art like so good. And each one of these has so 315 00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:20,680 it's got a full color painting on the front and then on the 316 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,119 backside it's got mothership stats. 317 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:28,560 So you can use them as NPCS. Or if you have PCs dying and you 318 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,120 don't have other backups ready, you can just have the player 319 00:17:32,120 --> 00:17:36,640 pull from these and it's got, it's got their stats, their 320 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:43,360 skills, their health for wound, their wounds, their stress, 321 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,520 everything. It's got weapons, gear, it's 322 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,680 just like fully fledged and ready to go. 323 00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:52,680 So yeah, kind of nice to have in your bag of tricks as a warden, 324 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:58,240 especially if you end up doing a station stop situation where you 325 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,360 get aboard a station and you need a bunch of NPCS. 326 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:06,200 These are already like ready to go and they've got little bits 327 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,280 of personal history on them. So you can kind of, it's not 328 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,120 prescriptive. You can kind of take and run 329 00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:14,680 with them and do whatever you want with the individual 330 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,120 characters again. Or like I said, if it in the 331 00:18:18,120 --> 00:18:22,560 case of a PC of a crew member dying, then you can actually 332 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,240 just hand in one of these. So and we had nice, nice 333 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,360 silvered edges. I was pretty happy with those. 334 00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:32,720 They came out pretty well. Yeah, that, that looked 335 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,720 fantastic. Yeah, I don't know if it's 336 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:36,760 coming through in the. Cameras. 337 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,040 Yeah, it kind of is, yeah. When you move it back and forth 338 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,160 I can see it fade from like kind of silver to dark. 339 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,520 So bright. It's like white, almost as 340 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,720 crazy. I think these two were my 341 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,200 favorite. I was looking through before. 342 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:55,680 I think Wrench the Android is incredible, but this lady mother 343 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,840 Telerin Lapatan, that's that's crazy. 344 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,240 That's so good. Of course, she's like leaking 345 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:08,840 stuff out of her eyes. She's got like Bob AKA crazy 346 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,200 hair helmet situation. I don't know. 347 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,960 And then a shrimp like thing, the core authority. 348 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,040 That's that's a great piece. I love that one. 349 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:27,360 Also, we're actually tying these in with our mothership month 25 350 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,840 submission bombs bursting in air, written by the same team, 351 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,080 Christian Kessler. I'm doing the editing and 352 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,920 Bosun's doing the art for it. And since everything takes place 353 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,640 aboard the Dream, ours is a so frame up murder mystery aboard 354 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,320 the Dream. Cool. 355 00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:51,520 CK is going to be using the characters from this, some of 356 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,920 these as in PCs, which is pretty cool. 357 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,720 Yeah, there's because he's got this whole cosmology worked out 358 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,560 with all these factions and stuff like that. 359 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,040 We're probably at some point going to do a second deck, the 360 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:08,640 same team. It's just the process of 361 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,800 Verbosun to for CK to write all those and Bosun to write. 362 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,520 That's 50 new MPCS and 50 new illustrations. 363 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,120 It does take a little while, but we're talking about doing a 364 00:20:18,120 --> 00:20:20,560 second deck at some point, which will be pretty cool. 365 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,640 Yeah, because it's not. I mean, it's a decent amount of 366 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,880 information on the back. It's not just like whipping up a 367 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,000 like a super easy thing. But so Mothership Month is going 368 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,960 to happen again in 2025. Yeah, it's it's going to be in 369 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,360 October this year. So. 370 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,320 That's my birthday month, so. Did I? 371 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,040 Did we know that? Was that a thing that we knew 372 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,080 before I? Don't think we did know that. 373 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,600 I don't think we knew that another mothership of this month 374 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,360 was happening, especially didn't know next month. 375 00:20:52,360 --> 00:20:53,920 I'm surprised. Has it been announced? 376 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,160 Kind of quietly. Gotcha. 377 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,320 Kind of unofficially, we're doing the big promo push for 378 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:05,080 everything because everyone is doing Zenes this year, which is 379 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,760 cool. So even TKG is doing a Zen that 380 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,800 takes place aboard the Dream. So oh, that's pretty cool that's 381 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,040 happening.

So this is and this is or 460 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,120 struck. So it's it's kind of AI don't 461 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,400 I'd have to ask them if it's meant as a prequel or if you can 462 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,360 run them at the same time, but it does. 463 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,760 The tannic forest is actually in here, which is pretty cool. 464 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,280 But this is a full on adventure with multiple locations. 465 00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,040 There's a bunch of really kick ass maps for each of the 466 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,320 occasions and stuff like that, but the tag from the back is an 467 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,520 ossified horror murders and Wrens terrifying miners in an 468 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,400 ancient cavern. A warrior and his vicious gang 469 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,720 hunt a privateer rumored to have returned home. 470 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,280 The dreamers hunger for a bloody return to forgotten rituals, so 471 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,800 there's all kinds of factions going on right off. 472 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,600 Nice. I like the Cranberry Bog 473 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:28,280 location just because I like, I like the idea of the of that 474 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,520 being in game world and just being like, yeah, that's where 475 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,640 we grow all of our cranberries for, right? 476 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,440 Exactly. Like I always love when 477 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,880 locations have like a realistic industry if they put that like 478 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,120 they farm or mine realistically. Yep. 479 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,400 Cranberry bogs are crazy too. The the like the fact that they 480 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,080 literally just flood that shit. Yeah, it's insane. 481 00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:52,200 I heard someone talking about them once and said that like 482 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,840 when they flood it like you're kind of standing in there and 483 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,400 like all the spiders try to get their. 484 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,400 Eyebrows. Yeah, they're apparently really 485 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,640 big spiders, too. Like they're not like, you know, 486 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,640 I'm like, oh, that sounds awful, actually. 487 00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:08,560 Yeah, hard pass. Yeah, super, super big hard pass 488 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:14,760 on on all of that. I started to Google cranberry 489 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,480 and the first thing that came up was cranberry bog spiders. 490 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,200 Nice. Which hyperlinks, baby? 491 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:24,840 So this is kind of a beefy adventure. 492 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:29,200 It's like 36 pages. Yeah, there's a lot going on. 493 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:34,400 Yeah, it is not a lot of info. Yeah, pretty cool. 494 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,160 And it's easy. It's easy to follow and it's 495 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,200 easy to keep track of the factions. 496 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,680 It's a very well it's a very well developed book. 497 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:48,400 There's a handy bestie area in the back just in case you need 498 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:55,640 it and, and extra maps overall. Yeah, it's it's one I'm really 499 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,200 hoping people pick up and dig. So yeah, I mean, there's 500 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,240 definitely it seems like there's like hours of potential game in 501 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:02,840 here. You. 502 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,840 Know. Like camp on this for a while. 503 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,720 I mean, there are bone spiders in here, so you know where those 504 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,360 are going to be. Right in the Cranberry bog, 505 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:20,200 right and these and this is for Karen too. 506 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,760 This is the first thing that we've put out that supports for 507 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,360 Karen. We've got another one come in 508 00:28:25,360 --> 00:28:30,720 next month carnival. And then we're just kind of and 509 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,600 then Doran Murek's Canyon is actually dual standard for OSE 510 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,400 and Karen. So well for BX and Karen 511 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,480 essentially. So they'll have the little quick 512 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:46,080 BX line, not the full big line, but it'll have enough for you to 513 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,960 be able to run it in both. So you can see how Stella stated 514 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,640 it in both. So that's. 515 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,000 Pretty awesome. Yeah, you don't get, you don't 516 00:28:54,000 --> 00:29:00,520 see that pairing a lot, but it's a cool pairing to do like BX and 517 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:06,480 or like OSC and and and Karen, because I think, I mean, I don't 518 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,240 know, Karen and I could be completely wrong. 519 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,480 Like I like Karen, Karen, Karen and nave always seemed like kind 520 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,680 of two sides of the same coin to me in that like nave kept more 521 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,400 of like the D&D part and Karen went like the like into the odd 522 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,280 kind of way with like the same kind of core BXE kind of game. 523 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:29,600 And and you know, we're we're we're mark of the odd folks here 524 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,920 and definitely not nave people. So so that's that's really cool. 525 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,320 Really interesting to see. You know, as long as it's not 5 526 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,160 inch shattered arc. You know, we're chilling, right, 527 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,440 right. But it is it is what it is. 528 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,720 But that's awesome that I'm I that surprises me. 529 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,360 But then I'm like, yeah, I guess like this is you guys did the 530 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,400 Karen Tweed box set, but haven't really put anything out for 531 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:51,520 Karen before this. Huh. 532 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,600 Yep. I'm really thankful that Amanda 533 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,000 came to us. Yeah, they're really awesome. 534 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,520 Yeah, they're really awesome. I'm really excited for this one 535 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,880 to get out there and get some and get some play and get into 536 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,600 the hands of some people. I think they're really going to 537 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,480 dig it. Yeah, Amanda does some really 538 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,360 good stuff. I know we talked about 539 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,760 pilgrimage to the Sun Guard like a long time ago when? 540 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:19,040 That was I have not read. For for, again, I'm not, we 541 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,760 talked about solo games before. If I'm going to do that, one's 542 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,360 not like fully solo journaling. There is journaling aspects to 543 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,400 it, but there's a lot of really fun dice mechanics in it too. 544 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,880 So that's definitely like a kind of a fun middle ground one for 545 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,480 me where I could definitely play it without having to do like a 546 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,800 ton of journaling. And then when they put out the 547 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,880 release, it actually had like the gold foiling on the cover. 548 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:42,400 That's a good looking book. So but yeah, and I have Tannic 549 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,200 in my Cairn box back here somewhere. 550 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,800 Nice. So definitely, definitely they 551 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,120 put out a lot of really cool stuff and I'm excited to see 552 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,560 more Karen stuff because you guys, well, I mean, there's room 553 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,600 in the box if you take some stuff out-of-the-box to put 554 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,320 stuff in the box. So, so that'll be that'll be fun 555 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,760 to fill it up with. Well, the intention is. 556 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,960 The intention is that you give away those extra copies of the 557 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,960 players guide. Yeah, no, I'm not going to do 558 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,040 that. Yeah, why not get all four of 559 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,040 them simultaneously? That's where they when they sit 560 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,040 at the table and they need their little copy when they said yeah. 561 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,920 And then at the end they those all come back you. 562 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:21,960 Collected. You, you bring them, You don't, 563 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,280 you don't give them out. See, we put them in there 564 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,600 because we were, we were hoping that people would give them out. 565 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,680 Yeah, I'm sure people will, but not but not Ryan and I. 566 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,480 Yeah, I mean, you'd have to actually have three friends to 567 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:34,520 give it to. And you? 568 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,240 Know that's also very true. So I can get mine. 569 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,280 Mine are still sitting nice and tight in the box. 570 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:47,240 Oh, oh, Ouch. But but yeah, you know, I I'll 571 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:48,600 definitely make some more room for it. 572 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:53,560 You know, we got a nice big box for Karen stuff and we still 573 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,680 have to do, we still haven't done Karen or Cantui here on the 574 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,240 show and we've been talking about doing that for quite a 575 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,280 while. Yeah. 576 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,320 But maybe, maybe with some new releases, we'll talk about that 577 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,760 stuff a little bit more. But we're. 578 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,400 Struck, I guess. We someone could come on and run 579 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,240 it, you know? We'd love that. 580 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,800 You know, that would be, that would be fun. 581 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,920 We we have not run, neither of us have run anything on the 582 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,120 show, have we? No, I definitely haven't so. 583 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,520 And I definitely haven't. So we always get, we always con 584 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,040 someone else into doing it. Maybe the best. 585 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:31,400 Part I want to play games in my free time, you know, like I want 586 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,480 you said. You said Stella's coming out 587 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,760 with something, right? Yeah, the door in Murex Canyon 588 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,480 that comes out next month. That one just got sent to print 589 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,800 this weekend, so that's cool. Here we go. 590 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,640 Or Friday maybe we'll. Oh, I forgot, I I saw your 591 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,680 tattoo and I was reminded that we recently kicked Arsenal's ass 592 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:52,880 at home. Well, one. 593 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,280 One nil is fine, it's successful. 594 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:56,760 I'll take it. It's not a kick ass, but I'll 595 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:58,640 take it. But it's been a while since 596 00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:59,920 Stella's been all. We haven't played the game in a 597 00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:00,960 while. Maybe we can get Stella to come 598 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,800 on and run and and jerk. You can come on and be our 599 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,760 third. Play some Murex Canyon. 600 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,360 Yeah. Cool, would love. 601 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,800 That be sick.

You know, just like Josh and 604 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,160 Stella and stuff. You're just like part of the 605 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,560 show, right? You're just on a couple times 606 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:26,280 less a month than we are. But but yeah, so when is 607 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,640 Orstruck actually going to be able to be on the shop? 608 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,920 And Survivors of the Core Wars is already on there now, right? 609 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,560 Let me look at the calendar so I can tell you the exact date. 610 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,040 Wednesday the 17th New releases or Orstruck and survivors of the 611 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,400 Core Wars.

I know that the week actually we 615 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:58,400 could have done it on the 10th, which is this coming week, but 616 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,480 for some reason my brain jumped ahead to the 17th, so we're 617 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:07,240 going to do it on the 17th, so. I did actually did not back 618 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,600 survivors of the course I thought I did. 619 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,159 I guess I did not. So I'll be picking up on Space 620 00:34:12,159 --> 00:34:16,199 Penguin dot Inc. Yes, those will be on sale on 621 00:34:16,199 --> 00:34:18,360 the 17th.

I had a thought and the thought 628 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,320 escaped me. So what? 629 00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:43,280 So that is your guys's next couple of months now. 630 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,920 How wrapped up are you going to be with Mothership month? 631 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,320 Above and beyond like Space Penguin, since you know you are 632 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:58,240 part of the mothership team.

It's I'm still planning on doing 635 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,360 that. So whatever the, the, the 636 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,400 release is the for the for the dream. 637 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:17,160 So yeah, I'll be on that one.

So that one's pretty cool. 648 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,960 That one's in process right now. A. 649 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:01,120 Game that we really enjoyed so.

My favorite my my anime waifu 657 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,120 for sure. Absolutely. 658 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,800 I will bark all fucking day. Worst. 659 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,880 Possible pig? You know, I got a problem with 660 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:35,200 redheads, man. So what were you saying? 661 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:36,760 Oh yeah. Got to meet, got to meet them at 662 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,520 at gencomic school. I actually met them with Debbie. 663 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,400 That was like, I really want to go talk to Ryan, but they're 664 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,840 talking with somebody I don't know and I don't want to 665 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:44,160 interrupt. And she's like, fuck that. 666 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,360 We just like walked over and ended up being the the writer of 667 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,080 the adventure that was nominated at at Gen. 668 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:51,280 Con 2. So that was fun to get to meet 669 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,000 both of them. But I would love to play perils. 670 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:59,600 I I think I've I casually talk to Ryan about maybe doing coming 671 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,000 on the show and running it, but that would be great. 672 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,760 I yeah, I, I'm a big fan of that game. 673 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,680 I like a lot. I I was talking about getting, 674 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,480 we're all old enough. Maybe Hunter's not. 675 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,800 Did you ever play Pretty Pretty Princess or have sisters that 676 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,240 made you play Pretty Pretty Princess? 677 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,800 I didn't. Yeah, you know what I'm talking 678 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:19,680 about. Hunter. 679 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,280 Nope. So there's a game where 680 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,160 basically like, I don't know how you play, but there was like, 681 00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:25,840 like you. Roll the dice and you pick up 682 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:29,320 the different pieces of jewelry. There's rings and there's 683 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,640 necklaces and there's the crown. In like. 684 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,160 Two years. Or two or clip on ear. 685 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,800 Is this like a product sold? Yes. 686 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:37,680 Like, OK, hold on, let. Me look it up so you. 687 00:37:37,720 --> 00:37:39,640 Would call pretty pretty Princess, yeah. 688 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,000 I think you basically win if you get all the Princess jewelry 689 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:43,840 first. So my idea was to get a pretty, 690 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,440 pretty Princess box, mail it to everybody you know, to wear your 691 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,760 pretty, pretty Princess jewelry. We play Princess and perils, 692 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,040 pears and Princess. But anyway, yeah. 693 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,440 I know I've never seen this before so. 694 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:57,520 Yeah, I got well, you. I don't, did you? 695 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,360 I had two sisters, so I got to do all. 696 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,800 That shit, I have sisters. But but yeah, I started getting 697 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,440 all this up, too.

It was inspired by Dungeons and 716 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:26,160 Dragons, but it's got its own, they've got its own things set 717 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,600 up.

And then my part of it is way, 765 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,440 way, way down the line. So I'm not in a, I'm not in a 766 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,880 hurry.

So it's still fairly recent. 774 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:49,280 Yeah. Cool. 775 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,080 Nice. Maybe, maybe longer. 776 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,160 Don't quote me on that, I'm not. I'm not keen on my sword world 777 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:04,640 history so. Old World 2.5 wiki. 778 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:12,760 October 20220 That's that's not the right version. 779 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:20,280 Third World RPG? Wikipedia says so. 2 and 2.5 780 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:24,560 came out in 20/12/2018. Wow, it's been out for a little 781 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,520 while. Yeah, 22 point O came out in 782 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:31,760 2008, revised in 2012 and 2.5 came out in in 2018. 783 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,600 I mean. 2018 was just two years ago, you know it's only. 784 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,400 That was just, that was literally just a couple years 785 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,040 ago, right? No 7, fucking. 786 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,640 It was like crazy. It really actually does so. 787 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,360 Our brains are just going to be broken forever. 788 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,720 Like, are we stuck in 2020 for the rest of our lives? 789 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,480 Like. Apparently it was so traumatic 790 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,800 that we're unable to experience the amount of time that has 791 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,880 passed since then. You know, likely our government 792 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,680 took really good care of us during that so. 793 00:43:59,960 --> 00:44:01,800 Sure. And and they continue to do so, 794 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:02,760 you know. And you do. 795 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,400 So yeah, I mean, luckily, small businesses are really thriving 796 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,640 right now. So they thrive through the 797 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,320 pandemic and especially afterwards. 798 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,200 And now they're really thriving, so. 799 00:44:13,240 --> 00:44:16,080 Got to love, got to love all of all of what's happening. 800 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,720 It's hard to even joke about it anymore. 801 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,480 The other thing that keeps me sane so. 802 00:44:23,240 --> 00:44:25,200 Anything else cooking on the page? 803 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,320 We got we got these releases this month. 804 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,160 It sounds like we got a release from Stella, which inevitably 805 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,480 means it's going to be fantastic coming next month on top of 806 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,320 Mothership for you, on top of, you know, well, at least being 807 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,720 excited for Sword World. What else? 808 00:44:39,720 --> 00:44:42,200 What else you got cooking? Or is that more than enough? 809 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:48,960 Also next month, besides the door in Merex Canyon is Josh 810 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,880 Damanski's Karen of All for Karen. 811 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:59,280 And then the wide release of the Tawamas Verkonens, the ghost of 812 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,440 Zozana Mountain. That's one that we've that we 813 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:08,320 crowdfunded that again that has already fulfilled and needs to 814 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:14,200 get to regular release so that when it was really pretty. 815 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:17,720 Well, we'll talk more about that one next month for the first 816 00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:20,160 time in a while. For the first time in a while we 817 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,680 will have a three release month, which is pretty good. 818 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,240 Nice. Well, you're going from a no 819 00:45:26,240 --> 00:45:28,360 release month to a three release month, so you just got to 820 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:29,960 balance it out, right? Right. 821 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:35,600 So just learning just part of the learning curve of like when 822 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,080 the books have actually landed and have fulfilled and just 823 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,600 trying to get that. And then working with this 824 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,560 solicit cycle for our distributors and things like 825 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:49,040 that because we have to let them know 90 to 120 days in advance 826 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:54,560 of when things are coming out. So doing that and managing the 827 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:58,560 production schedule of all these things simultaneously takes a 828 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,480 lot. So sometimes I'm a little bit 829 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,480 off and we have a gap month. So we have we've, we've had a 830 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:08,400 gap month and now we know now I can get it a little bit closer, 831 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:11,280 I can close the window a little bit more, which is pretty good. 832 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:17,960 So it'll be nice to be able to land a crowdfund, get it 833 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,400 fulfilled and then the next month is when it goes to distro. 834 00:46:21,720 --> 00:46:23,840 So that's the goal for next year. 835 00:46:24,240 --> 00:46:31,360 So, and then also further in the future and because we don't have 836 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:35,480 teaser pages up for it yet, but we've figured out our March 837 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:40,200 crowdfund is going to be for Ink Vane from Merc Dice. 838 00:46:41,240 --> 00:46:46,800 So Luke and Lindsay, we're going to be working with them for our 839 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:51,600 March release on Backer Kit, our March crowdfund, which is pretty 840 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:56,520 cool. And what is what is Ink vane? 841 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,600 Yeah, was it too? Early for that, It's pretty 842 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:06,160 early, but it's going to be, it's going to be a mega dungeon 843 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:12,120 and it's going to deal with a lot of stuff happening under a 844 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:16,520 mountain where this vein of this ink has been discovered. 845 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:22,320 So yeah, that's in the out, that's in the outlining and 846 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,520 thumbnail phases right now. Luke's working his butt off 847 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,280 getting all that worked up, so that's cool. 848 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:31,880 Nice and that. So that'll be your next 849 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:37,240 crowdfund is March. Well, the, there'll be the bombs 850 00:47:37,240 --> 00:47:42,240 bursting in air for Mothership Month in October, and then our 851 00:47:42,240 --> 00:47:44,720 next bigger one will be that one next year. 852 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:50,240 So because we should be able to have Liminal Horror Deluxe 853 00:47:50,240 --> 00:47:52,440 Edition fulfilled wrapped up by then. 854 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:59,120 So that's going well on track. Yeah, that's well on track. 855 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,160 I'm doing bits and pieces as they're feeding them to me and 856 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,960 they're getting things chunked out. 857 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,720 So it's going to be a big book. We've ordered some physical 858 00:48:07,720 --> 00:48:11,880 copies. I can show you the sample of the 859 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:20,300 silver cover.

They said that they've gotten 866 00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:02,560 books before that they have that have had silvering and the 867 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:06,200 silverings come off. So I mean, we ordered a sample 868 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,240 just to double check that and this this is not going to come 869 00:49:09,240 --> 00:49:10,520 off of there. So. 870 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:11,880 Cool.

Yeah, and it's a nice cloth too. 875 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:26,560 It's a nice black color that seemed to work really well with 876 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,160 this. So pretty stoked about it. 877 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,960 Does it leave fingerprinting this when you touch it? 878 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,440 No. It does not. 879 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,120 That's nice. I have a couple of books where 880 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:39,240 like if you touch it, it leaves just like your finger oil on 881 00:49:39,240 --> 00:49:41,760 like the cloth, like the death in space, like special edition 882 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:43,480 black one.

But I mean, this is Florida, so 885 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:53,280 there is humidities and it doesn't, it doesn't do that at 886 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:53,880 all. Very nice. 887 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,640 So what's on the? What's the back look like? 888 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,480 Nothing. It's just going to be blank. 889 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:02,040 Nice, because these aren't, these aren't going into regular 890 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,200 retail. These are crowdfund only. 891 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:05,840 That is the only way to get a hold of these. 892 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:09,440 We'll have a few extra that we might sell on our store, but 893 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,320 we're not ordering a whole lot because we're not putting that 894 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:14,240 out into distro. So. 895 00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:16,400 That's it's so nice when you can do stuff like that and you don't 896 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,480 have like an ISBN code on it. Like it can just be a fancy 897 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,600 artistic Y, you know, book that that's really cool. 898 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,160 I love when I love when the books are able to do that. 899 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:27,560 Yeah. Yeah, and I like that there's 900 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,200 actually like a dope piece of art on the front. 901 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,600 Like my biggest beef with projects is when you pay like 902 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,880 double for the special edition and they literally just to like 903 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,120 faux leather and like a word on the front. 904 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:40,040 And it's just like, bro, like, you know, like I I want a fancy 905 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:41,280 edition. I want a fancy edition. 906 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:42,680 That one's gorgeous. So. 907 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:46,720 And we talked before about what what all the symbols mean so. 908 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:50,080 I'm really excited about this one, so. 909 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,720 Yeah, can't wait to get it.
