00:00:15,220 --> 00:00:17,940
Hello and welcome to the Weekly 
Scroll Podcast. 

2
00:00:17,940 --> 00:00:21,380
My name is Ryan. 
And I'm Garrett Drader. 

3
00:00:23,100 --> 00:00:27,140
And I'm Jarrett Crader, this 
week's guest. 

4
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,720
Guest, you are at this point a 
member of the show, Jerry, we've

5
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:33,880
only been doing this. 
I don't I don't know how we've 

6
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,320
done this so long. 
And I don't remember what 

7
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,120
episode. 
We're all maybe like 14. 

8
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,080
I'm going to say maybe 15. 1415,
something like that. 

9
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,640
Yeah, it's something. 
Like that getting close, it's 

10
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,360
crazy. 
Well, yeah, I guess that'd be 24

11
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,520
episodes, but I guess by time 
because we've kept a couple. 

12
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,640
But this is in fact, you know, 
if Jerk is here, it's most 

13
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,960
likely a not cat chat. 
So this is that Jerk. 

14
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,120
Chats. 
This is the not cat chats. 

15
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:06,720
No see no cats here. 
This is this is cap chat today. 

16
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,640
We're all wearing. 
Our caps look at us with the 

17
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,280
baseball. 
Did you get that 100? 

18
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:18,680
Did you get that note? 
All right, so Jerk Crater, I 

19
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,520
guess for those that have 
watched in the like 16 other 

20
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,640
times that you've been here, 
who, who the heck is Jerk 

21
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:28,800
Crater? 
I am the co-owner along with my 

22
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,400
wonderful partner Debbie of 
Space Penguin Inc. 

23
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,920
We're a small press role-playing
game publishing house that we 

24
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:45,000
run out of our house here and we
publish Liminal Horror and Karen

25
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,160
and Forbidden Psalm. 
We Co published Forbidden Psalm 

26
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:55,480
with Will and all kinds of other
titles and systems and modules, 

27
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,200
primarily modules for existing 
systems and stuff like that. 

28
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:05,880
So we've been around for about 3
years now going on four, I think

29
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,160
something like that. 
I don't know. 

30
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,440
It's based on the number of tax 
returns I've done. 

31
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,320
This is our third tax return. 
So we're in our fourth year. 

32
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,480
There you go. 
Crazy to think about. 

33
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,320
I remember talking to you before
it's spacing was started, you 

34
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,160
know? 
Really. 

35
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,280
Yeah, yeah. 
Back in the day. 

36
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:29,840
Yeah, in the way back times. 
How did we get going with like 

37
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,840
not cat chats and stuff? 
I don't even remember at this 

38
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,720
point how we even. 
It just became like a a thing. 

39
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,320
Yeah, you just had a slot and a 
monthly thing because when I 

40
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:47,640
was, when I worked at EFI, used 
to do Friday shows with Tony and

41
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:50,600
then we were going to try and 
keep that alive. 

42
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,400
But then things went underground
for a while and we didn't, we 

43
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,120
didn't keep it up. 
So when you guys came along and 

44
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,320
had me on the show, then you 
offered me a spot the next month

45
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:02,920
and then it just kind of rolled 
into there. 

46
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,200
Yeah, there we go. 
Look at us. 

47
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,520
And then we then we called it a 
name that I don't remember why 

48
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:15,080
and we are not cat chats number.
I wanted to call it Cat Chats 

49
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,040
and Hunter wanted to call it Cat
Chats and you wanted to call it 

50
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,440
not Cat Chats because you don't 
like cat cats. 

51
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:26,000
And since I run everything and 
make everything, I got to decide

52
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,800
what it was. 
Right now, we're getting there. 

53
00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:30,280
But we still, but we still call 
it cat chat. 

54
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,920
Cat chats I'll show. 
At least I call it cat chats. 

55
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,520
In my heart I call it cat chats.
This is episode 19. 

56
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,560
I don't know why I thought we 
were so far back. 

57
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,160
So it is damn near 2 years of of
doing this. 

58
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,240
So 19 times we've done this and 
probably done have the same 

59
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:53,000
jokes the same time every time. 
But but what, what, what's, 

60
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,080
what's everybody been up to? 
What have what have you been? 

61
00:03:55,080 --> 00:04:01,800
What have you been doing? 
Back in January I went to Shim 

62
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,600
Con at my friend Doug's house, a
little gaming retreat weekend 

63
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,200
for a bunch of people and we 
played a bunch of card games and

64
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,959
board games and RPGs and just in
general talked about games and 

65
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:21,240
shit like that. 
It was a nice recharge. 

66
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:26,840
So it was in. 
It was in the cold N but I 

67
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,200
managed to survive through it so
that was good. 

68
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,200
What is? 
What is the cold N? 

69
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,840
What is considered the Cold 
North? 

70
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,080
Chicagoland. 
Oh yeah, it is cold N for sure. 

71
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,120
Yeah, it's pretty cold. 
We'll say that Chicago is one of

72
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:49,040
those weird like hubs for some 
reason in teach RPGs. 

73
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,160
Like I feel like Chicago and 
Philadelphia are for for random 

74
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,840
reasons, just two of the biggest
like hubs of teach RPG creators 

75
00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,040
and players and stuff out there.
Yeah. 

76
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,040
It's probably just the two 
larger cities when you think 

77
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,800
about it up there. 
Like I noticed you didn't 

78
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,560
include New York City in that 
though. 

79
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,040
Because I quite. 
A few people from. 

80
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,320
We don't believe in New York 
City. 

81
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,560
We don't think it exactly 
exists. 

82
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,360
It's like Australia, yeah. 
Actually, I didn't go to New 

83
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,120
York. 
City. 

84
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,400
No, I went to Brooklyn in 
January for the first time, 

85
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,200
actually, which is funny because
I did used to live outside of 

86
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,240
Philadelphia, but I had never 
been in New York in like the 

87
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,280
frigging 20 years I lived there.
But no, I went to Brooklyn in 

88
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:31,520
January, which is called 
Brooklyn and Manhattan and 

89
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,840
stuff. 
But I don't know. 

90
00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:37,240
I guess I'm sure if you start 
naming people I would know. 

91
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,160
But like every time I hear 
someone in the teach RBG space, 

92
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,200
I feel like it's always 
Philadelphia or Chicago because 

93
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,320
like LA does not have like I 
know there are people, but it's 

94
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,400
not quite as numerous of people 
as as other places. 

95
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,720
West Coast is just less teach 
RBG people, I think than a lot 

96
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,400
of like the Midwest and and East
Coast. 

97
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,560
But, but I mean, you know 
everybody, so I'm sure you can 

98
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:03,600
name somebody everywhere, but 
but as far as like every time I 

99
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,680
hear where someone's from, I 
feel like there's a good shot 

100
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,320
it's either Philadelphia or 
Chicago. 

101
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,320
Interesting. 
I've never in that area or 

102
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,120
thought about that. 
So yeah, I always think of 

103
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,520
people as the people who live in
my computer. 

104
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,520
Yeah. 
I mean, yeah, I don't see 

105
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,680
anybody ever. 
That's why I'm going to go to 

106
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,440
like 5 cons this year just so I 
can see people again. 

107
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,840
So what cons are you going to? 
Confirmed definite cons this 

108
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:35,360
year. 
I'm going to Adepticon. 

109
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,000
I'm going to I might go to 3D 
role play con. 

110
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,160
I just got to get some days off.
I got to ask that gym kind of 3D

111
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,800
role play con. 
I don't know how new or old it 

112
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,440
is. 
It's it's a, it's like a 

113
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,320
skirmish. 
It's like a skirmish war game, 

114
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,360
like playing like Convention in 
Portland. 

115
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,120
I don't know how long that's 
been going on, but I want to go.

116
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:03,560
Portland, OR or Portland, ME. 
Yeah, Portland, OR Yeah, what 

117
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,120
else? 
Am I absolutely going to 

118
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,160
Adepticon under the Dice Fest 
packs? 

119
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,480
You. 
I feel like there's another one 

120
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,120
I forgot and then I might go to 
What's up. 

121
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,240
When were you in between two 
Cairns? 

122
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,560
Oh, between two Cairns, We're 
going to go to that. 

123
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,480
Are you going to that? 
No, unfortunately my travel 

124
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,280
budget is pretty tight this 
year. 

125
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,280
So sticking to the big ones that
we usually do. 

126
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,200
So that way we that way we can 
see the most. 

127
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,400
People yeah, yeah. 
So I'm for sure 100% going to 

128
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,560
Adepticon between two Cairns 
under the Dice Fest impacts you 

129
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:45,680
and I might do Gen. 
Con 3D role play Con and I might

130
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:53,000
go to England if the Necropolis 
event is in my budget when it 

131
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,880
decides to come out. 
So definitely going to four, 

132
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,520
maybe going to seven. 
So but but we'll see. 

133
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,240
Might do stuff with it too. 
Because when I went to Brooklyn 

134
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,760
in January, it was for an event 
put on by Hot Head Collective 

135
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,440
and I recorded it. 
So we may or may not turn that 

136
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,960
into a video. 
So I was thinking about possibly

137
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,880
starting to do a little bit of 
at least chatting at some of the

138
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,520
cons and putting out small 
videos for some of the cons 

139
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,360
throughout the year. 
So. 

140
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,280
He's going to do like man on the
street interviews where he just 

141
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,800
randomly pulls people on 
conventions and ask them 

142
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,720
questions, inane questions, you 
know? 

143
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:33,000
Yeah, super name ones for sure. 
But but yeah, now that I know 

144
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,679
you're going to Gen. 
Con, maybe that's back on the 

145
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,520
list. 
So we'll see. 

146
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,360
Cool. 
Yeah, yeah. 

147
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,280
We grabbed our Gen. 
Con badges though. 

148
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,600
We'll definitely be there. 
And then I'm doing Gary Con next

149
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,920
month, which I'm looking forward
to. 

150
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,920
And then possibly packs and at 
the end of the year. 

151
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,160
Got to go, got to go to packs. 
I mean, if I don't see you. 

152
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:04,240
We skipped last year and we 
missed it, but we'll definitely 

153
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,400
we'll definitely put it's 
definitely on the radar. 

154
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,840
And then the one local one that 
we do that we actually get the 

155
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:19,120
table at Quest Con Orlando 
that's in September, October. 

156
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,800
So they haven't, I think they've
finally announced their dates 

157
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,800
and they're talking about a new 
venue. 

158
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,240
So I think they've kind of 
outgrown the space that they 

159
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,680
were in. 
So that's cool. 

160
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,920
Well, if I don't end up going to
England, I'd have some free 

161
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,520
time. 
Maybe I'll try to come down to 

162
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,720
Orlando for Questcon. 
I think that'd be fun. 

163
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,200
We can just stand in the booth 
and play Last War all day. 

164
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,880
Bro I'm fucking down. 
That's that's the thing about 

165
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,600
the cons too, is like one, it's 
actually fun to like work them a

166
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,760
lot of the time. 
Like I like talking about the 

167
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,480
games that I like, which is kind
of why we do the show. 

168
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,640
But also getting to hang out 
with people is is really fun and

169
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,080
meeting a lot of people is 
really cool. 

170
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,400
And if you stand in one spot, 
people will just come to you, 

171
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:06,320
you know, which is nice. 
Yeah, that is pretty cool. 

172
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,680
But but yeah, Hunter, are you 
doing anything besides PDX con 

173
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:15,400
in between two Cairns? 
Actually, it's yeah. 

174
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,720
By the way, it's between two 
cons is the name of the con. 

175
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,720
No, maybe. 
I don't know. 

176
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,520
Who knows? 
My life is in flux at all points

177
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,720
and I'm going, I'm. 
I'll be in school almost full 

178
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,600
time in the fall. 
So it's hard to think it 

179
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,520
conceptualize anything, you 
know? 

180
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,440
Yeah, there's a little bit 
right, man. 

181
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,720
The way my work works is I'd 
have my, my year of vacation, 

182
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:47,200
I'd have submitted all the way 
through next March by the end of

183
00:10:47,560 --> 00:10:53,040
January. 
So I had to plan out like 15 

184
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,560
months in advance for time off 
and PTO and all that kind of 

185
00:10:57,560 --> 00:10:59,760
stuff. 
So I had to conceptualize it. 

186
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,400
I had to make it not abstract 
and get a bunch of people to 

187
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,520
cover shifts and move stuff 
around or whatever. 

188
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:11,040
So we'll, we'll see. 
Yeah, it's ridiculous that 

189
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,840
that's how it works, especially 
because I wanted to go to a 

190
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,560
Depticon this year and I, I kind
of forgot. 

191
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,720
And then when I saw when the 
tickets went on sale, they were 

192
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,120
for the end of March, which 
means I needed to plan my PTO 

193
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,200
for that last January. 
So that was fun trying to get 

194
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,800
like 6 days covered, you know, 
two months before it's going to 

195
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:28,280
happen. 
But. 

196
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,240
But Collins would be cool. 
I mean, I live in nowhere and 

197
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,560
see nobody. 
So if once every other month I 

198
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:36,680
can actually go see human beings
that I enjoy, that would be that

199
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:40,880
would be a fun year. 
So we'll we'll get around to to 

200
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,080
that. 
Anything else any do we got 

201
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,920
anything else going on guys or 
is this is this our lives? 

202
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,040
I'm prepping to run Wolves upon 
the Coast next month. 

203
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:54,160
Anyone cares about that? 
So you know, I've run solo 

204
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,600
before and I'm I'm fleshing 
everything out to make it easier

205
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,280
to use at the table using the 
Obsidian app. 

206
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,600
Which big shout out Ryan for 
showing me that app. 

207
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:06,240
It's incredibly useful. 
It's a good time. 

208
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,520
I wish actually did enough work 
on anything to take notes in it.

209
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,960
That would be cool, but alas, 
I'm not. 

210
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,160
That's cool. 
I mean, we've talked about I. 

211
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,120
Was going to say I'm playing in 
a couple of OD and D games right

212
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:28,240
now and one of them this morning
we had a damn near TPK. 

213
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,000
We lost half the party. 
Cool. 

214
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:37,000
Fighting some giant centipedes 
we had just we we were on a 

215
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,440
there was only three of us and 
three hirelings and we decided 

216
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:44,160
to go down into their dungeon 
and rolled a random encounter 

217
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,000
and it damn near kicked our 
asses. 

218
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,240
So. 
But now we have centipedes that 

219
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:56,040
we can extract venom from. 
So oh oh, is that a game with 

220
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,520
John Davis? 
Yes. 

221
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,400
He says hate. 
I missed that session with jerk 

222
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:04,640
John. 
Goddamnit. 

223
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,640
Everybody stepped in today and 
we lost half the party. 

224
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:10,400
It's all right. 
John, it's your fault. 

225
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,840
It's your fault. 
They lost half the party dude. 

226
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:21,480
That to me is part of the fun of
of OD and D is just that like so

227
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760
you drop the character, so you 
picked up another character. 

228
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,640
I picked up one of the higher 
links and she too went down. 

229
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,480
So I was, it was just like boom,
you know, 2 for one. 

230
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,560
I lost 2 characters today but 
like now I've got another one 

231
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,920
so. 
There you go. 

232
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,800
I still have yet to actually get
OD and D and I played around 

233
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:46,160
with a little bit of like solo 
stuff with OD and D, but I've 

234
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,720
not actually got to sit at a 
table and play OD and D1 day. 

235
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,040
I got the what? 
What's it called? 

236
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,280
They it there's, I mean, of 
course there's a million hacks 

237
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,520
and things and stuff like that, 
but there's one that is like 

238
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,920
kind of the one that people use 
delving deeper. 

239
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,240
Is that what I'm thinking of? 
Is that like kind of like 

240
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,840
perfect then? 
Yeah, I have that. 

241
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,520
I've got all that stuff and I 
know that Chaocalypse has so 

242
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,640
much stuff out with like like 
talked about playing and does a 

243
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,480
lot of stuff with some solo 
stuff with OD and D, so that's 

244
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,360
always fun to to play around 
with so. 

245
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,640
Yeah, Chow. 
Chow's shit about OD and D is 

246
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,160
pretty good. 
Yeah, yeah. 

247
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,120
And I haven't played anything in
forever. 

248
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,600
That's not true. 
We've been skirmishing. 

249
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,440
We've been skirmishing a lot. 
Hunter and I played Necropolis 

250
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,120
for Hunter's first game the 
other day. 

251
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,400
And such a good game. 
You. 

252
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,320
Guys play on TTS. 
Yeah, we did. 

253
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,240
Yeah. 
Nice, yeah. 

254
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,800
Did that take an exceedingly 
long time to set up? 

255
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,480
Not really, I mean when I've 
gotten pretty decent at building

256
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,640
maps so I just have to whip up a
map and then playing. 

257
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,920
The only thing that sucks is 
kind of like, and then I can't 

258
00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:01,480
really think of a way that they 
can make it easier. 

259
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,880
But going multi level is 
difficult with like auto raising

260
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,480
or turning off auto raising and 
stuff. 

261
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,320
Like if you're trying to like 
walk up a plank that's like 

262
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,320
between one level and two 
levels, it's damn near possible.

263
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,360
So we just like measure it and 
then just drop it. 

264
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,880
But I have so many different 
maps set up for so many 

265
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,240
different games. 
If anyone wanted to play 

266
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,720
something it would take 2 
seconds to hop in and and just 

267
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,120
run some stuff so. 
That's really cool, yeah. 

268
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,200
We got to hop in and we got to 
hop out and skirmish jerk. 

269
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,280
I mean, I'd be down to get some 
free time. 

270
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,200
That would be pretty great. 
I had some free time the other 

271
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,960
night at like 8:00 PM and I was 
just like, what am I going to do

272
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,360
with myself? 
And I asked if there was anybody

273
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,080
running a game and no one 
responded. 

274
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:40,120
I don't know. 
It's just like, oh. 

275
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,760
If you said 8 AMI probably would
have been around, but 8:00 PM is

276
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,440
pretty much a no go for me any 
day. 

277
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,120
But seriously, Necropolis 
Cauldron. 

278
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,640
What else we rent to Mech 28? 
We're setting up for some Flames

279
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,840
of Orion. 
Still want to run Scum? 

280
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,560
Got some other small stuff 
working. 

281
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,080
I got my game that I've played 
like a million times. 

282
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,200
I don't need to finish up. 
Nice. 

283
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,160
So yeah, anytime you want to, 
anytime you want to play 

284
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,520
anything, you just hit me up. 
Hell yeah, we'll figure out a 

285
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,120
time. 
We'll figure something out, 

286
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,880
yeah. 
So what are we talking about 

287
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:22,240
from Space Penguin Inc today? 
Last month's new release slash. 

288
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:28,520
This month's new releases Hang 
the DJ by Reese Carter for 

289
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,520
Cyborg. 
Nice. 

290
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:37,800
So, yeah, it's a fully fleshed 
out little location, like city 

291
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:45,520
area with like, food, food 
stands and a pawn shop and bars 

292
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,200
and nightclubs and stuff like 
that for you to run this really 

293
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:56,160
great little heist in and commit
a commit a crime or two or 

294
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,440
three. 
And yeah, really great art by 

295
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,160
Tony Tran throughout that 
sucker. 

296
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,760
Did I send you the PDF, Ryan? 
Were you able to pull it up? 

297
00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:09,400
I got it. 
It is right there. 

298
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,800
Nice, very nice. 
So. 

299
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,760
Yeah, I really like because 
obviously it's Hang the DJ and 

300
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,359
so there's a DJ involved and I 
really like the Hang the DJ 

301
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,240
playlist in the front cover. 
Yeah, that's good stuff. 

302
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,480
Reese has good taste in music, 
so. 

303
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,880
Yeah, got some a lot of names 
I've never heard before, so I'm 

304
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,960
definitely going to make this 
playlist and listen to it. 

305
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,760
Well, it's because he's from the
upside down. 

306
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,760
He's he's Australian. 
Yeah, he's out there in the Rise

307
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,000
A. 
Lot of those bands might not be 

308
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,760
actual bands. 
Oh, interesting. 

309
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,320
I mean, no, they are. 
They are actual bands. 

310
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,320
But in the sense, like in the 
US, they aren't right. 

311
00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:58,320
Right, right. 
Well, I mean, if Australia is 

312
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,280
not real, the music from there 
is not real, so can't. 

313
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:08,680
Argue against that. 
You know, Designed by Golden 

314
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,280
Achiever, you know. 
Who always does excellent work. 

315
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,080
Between you guys between between
golden Achiever and between die 

316
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,920
sugars, I think Space Penguin as
a company probably is the best 

317
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:27,400
graphic design and like layout 
of TTRBGS at period like that's 

318
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:32,520
I can't think of two people who 
do more better consistent work 

319
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,800
than than than Golden Achiever 
and and die sugars. 

320
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,320
So nice. 
And what's? 

321
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,000
Interesting too is. 
I was going to give a shout out 

322
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,440
on editing to Nicole Renner who 
did the editing on this one. 

323
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,520
So is that something that you've
worked with a lot before? 

324
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,480
No, this is someone that Reese 
brought on board. 

325
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:57,280
So usually I'm in the editing 
chair, but I was unfortunately 

326
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,040
unable to do this one. 
I'm also unfamiliar with Cyborg 

327
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:06,160
as a system, so it's one, it's 
one of the systems out there 

328
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,560
that I didn't edit, that I 
didn't work directly on, so I'm 

329
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,640
unfamiliar with it. 
So for those playing along at 

330
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,200
home, I've edited a lot of 
systems and stuff like that over

331
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:23,520
the years. 
And I tend to be better making 

332
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,280
third party supplements and 
supplements for those systems if

333
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,240
I worked in them. 
So which is not to say I haven't

334
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,440
edited some stuff that I've 
never played, but it's a 

335
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,520
different kind of editing when I
do that. 

336
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,920
So it's a different, not kind of
editing, it's a different form 

337
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,960
of editing. 
That's a better way to say that.

338
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,200
So is it more like copy editing 
then than like dev editing? 

339
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,680
Yes, it's not, it's not, it's 
not. 

340
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:58,040
I'm not necessarily 100% on on 
board with knowing the insurance

341
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:02,200
and outs of the whole system. 
So I usually find that out to 

342
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:07,720
somebody else so or someone else
does it in addition to me so. 

343
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,240
Because the last thing I want to
do is screw up rules. 

344
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,720
I already screw up enough rules.
So. 

345
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,280
So do I at the table, but 
luckily no one knows so I just. 

346
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,080
Keep going, you know. 
Right, go. 

347
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,680
If you end up putting out a 
bunch more Cyborg stuff, are you

348
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,360
going to sit down and flip 
through Cyborg? 

349
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:32,200
Yeah, I will definitely have to.
Yeah, I have my all of the 

350
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,360
Cyborg in the Borg. 
This is the Borg section from 

351
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,720
from A to B here. 
Like a drinking game for the 

352
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,600
show or for our channel could be
every time Ryan points to his 

353
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,520
his massive bookshelf. 
You, you have to drink, you 

354
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,520
know? 
For all you people that drink 

355
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:55,720
it, usually 10 AM on a Friday, I
turn our show into a yeah, but I

356
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,600
got, I got. 
Well, I mean, so this is the 

357
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,120
Merkborg stuff that's out. 
And then because of the amount 

358
00:21:00,120 --> 00:21:02,600
of Merkborg stuff that exists, I
probably got about four more 

359
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:09,920
boxes of it in my closet. 
But yeah, Cyborg, I mean, a lot 

360
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,120
of people do stuff for Cyborg, 
but obviously I think Merkborg 

361
00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:16,800
is always going to have more, 
more stuff than than Cyborg is 

362
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,440
Cyborg. 
Speaks to me in a way that I 

363
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,960
really, I really feel though, 
because it's so relatable, you 

364
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,120
know? 
Yeah. 

365
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:33,080
Attack dystopia like populated 
by criminal, like massive 

366
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,840
corporations that take advantage
of people and like, oh, that 

367
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,160
feels really close to my 
experience, like my lived truth,

368
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,560
you know? 
Yeah, well, and Rule 0 is always

369
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:50,120
a good rule to live by in life. 
So do you remember Rule 0? 

370
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,120
I don't, no, I was going to 
slide, but no, I don't. 

371
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,400
No rule 0 as far as I remember. 
It's rule zero. 

372
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,320
Rule one. 
It's you can't have sympathy for

373
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,240
the Corp or the cops. 
So yeah. 

374
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:07,240
Yeah, so I like a good cyberpunk
game where you can't be the bad 

375
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,520
guys in that context, which is 
always fun. 

376
00:22:15,360 --> 00:22:18,760
But but yeah, you know, that's 
it's really interesting thinking

377
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:24,360
about cyberpunk stuff in the 
context of like when it came out

378
00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:26,960
versus like what actually 
happened, Because when you think

379
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:35,440
of like, have you guys played a 
lot of cyberpunk like the like 

380
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,600
the actual game? 
Noble. 

381
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,240
Red narrow mancer. 
So yeah. 

382
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,200
Yes, and I have Red, Darrow, 
Mancer and most of Gibson's 

383
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,560
stuff. 
I've actually not read 

384
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,800
Neuromancer or any of Gibson 
stuff. 

385
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,120
It's insane. 
Yeah. 

386
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,240
Yeah. 
It's on the list, but when you 

387
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,920
think about stuff like like 
Johnny Mnemonic and you know, 

388
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,800
the cyber, you know, cyberpunk 
games, all that kind of stuff, 

389
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:04,160
what what it looks like versus 
where it's at is really 

390
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,360
interesting. 
Because I always found like, I 

391
00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:12,240
feel like we are much closer to 
like that weird 80s sci-fi than 

392
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,560
anything cyberpunk in that. 
Like there might be cool 

393
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,680
technology out there, but it's 
mostly broken and garbage. 

394
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,080
So that's that's the future that
I see is like people are like, 

395
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,240
we're going to get like desks 
that you can just drag stuff on.

396
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,520
But I'm like, yeah, but in real 
life it would be fucking broken.

397
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,120
And it would probably be Gorilla
Glass. 

398
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:37,880
It'd be chipped on the corner 
and stuff like I don't know, but

399
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,840
but yeah. 
So that's hang the DJ from Reese

400
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:43,000
Carter. 
Have you put out a bunch of 

401
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,680
stuff from from Reese? 
I feel like their name is 

402
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:52,720
numerous times. 
So I've worked with him on, we 

403
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,880
published distress signals, 
which is a bunch of ships for 

404
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,360
mothership with, with like it's 
got like the ship floor plan and

405
00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:08,000
then things like that. 
And then also when I was with 

406
00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:13,080
EF, we published Dead in the 
Water, which is a really good 

407
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,480
ship boat thing that's like a 
pretty solid intro adventure 

408
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:22,120
that a lot of people like. 
And then Reese has been around 

409
00:24:22,120 --> 00:24:27,440
for a while, like a very long 
while and helps in the 

410
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:32,760
background of a lot of projects,
like does a lot of third party 

411
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:37,240
mothership stuff. 
So work does stuff for over, 

412
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,520
under and dissident whispers and
stuff like that. 

413
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,720
So he's been around for quite a 
while. 

414
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,280
So isn't it whispers? 
Is so cool. 

415
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,040
It'd be cool to get another one 
of these. 

416
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:58,280
Yeah. 
Yeah, well, it's a great cover. 

417
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:06,040
Yeah, Jabari killed it. 
An anthology of 58 original RPG 

418
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,160
adventures made by diverse 
international collective of 

419
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,240
creators in support of the Black
Lives Matter movement. 

420
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,600
All proceeds go towards bail 
funds. 

421
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:14,480
Yeah, it'd be dumped to get 
something like this. 

422
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:19,200
And, you know, for the, for the 
next like, horrifying thing that

423
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,520
our country is doing to itself. 
Well, seeing as how we're 

424
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,240
constantly and the next 
horrifying thing each weekday, 

425
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,720
it seems like I don't know if 
there's enough time to catch up,

426
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,040
you know? 
It could be a monthly magazine, 

427
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,000
yeah. 
But it's done with one the next 

428
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:42,320
horror is going to pop up so. 
That book took, I would think it

429
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:52,960
was like 146 people, seven days 
to complete, 120 page book start

430
00:25:52,960 --> 00:26:01,440
to finish. 
Crazy man, you would think. 

431
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,080
I'm not going to never mind. 
That can be an off. 

432
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,880
That can be an off conversation,
you would think. 

433
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,720
And yet you. 
Would one one you could say, one

434
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,840
could think. 
Yeah, one should think, one 

435
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:18,320
could think, but does one think?
What else? 

436
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,440
What else is Space Penguin 
cooking right now? 

437
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:22,920
I know. 
I think this is the release for 

438
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,120
the month, but there's other 
stuff that I that's been popping

439
00:26:25,120 --> 00:26:27,520
up that I've been seeing. 
We've talked about it briefly. 

440
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:32,440
Yeah, so Ink Vein, which is a 
mega dungeon from work Borg is 

441
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,960
going to crowdfunding next 
month. 

442
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:41,080
That one's going to be a big 200
plus page book written and 

443
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,400
designed by Merck Dice, Luke 
Saunders and Lynn Lindsay Died 

444
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:49,200
Coat and they're just kicking 
ass on it. 

445
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,960
That's going to be it's going to
be so really, really pretty. 

446
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,360
I'm excited to share a bunch 
more art and stuff from it as we

447
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:59,840
go and possibly another excerpt 
from it. 

448
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,240
Yeah, we've been hitting the 
advertisements and things like 

449
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,560
that and getting some numbers up
so we can get some people doing 

450
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,400
it. 
So that one goes live in March 

451
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:17,600
and then so I'm currently 
editing the doing the 

452
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,840
proofreading pass on the Luminal
Ward Deluxe edition. 

453
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,280
So that was so. 
Excited for that? 

454
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:32,840
That was a big book, 460 pages. 
So I'm on page 350, so getting 

455
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,280
there go. 
So I'm going to work a little 

456
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,720
bit, little bit longer tonight 
after I finished talking with 

457
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,120
you guys, but I'm not going to 
burn myself out on it. 

458
00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:43,640
That's one of the tricks with 
these bigger books is like you 

459
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:48,760
can't, you can't just do it all 
in like 2 days of cramming it in

460
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,600
there. 
You've got, you've got to break 

461
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,560
it up over days and give your, 
your brain time to regain some 

462
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,120
sponginess. 
That way you're not you're not 

463
00:27:56,120 --> 00:27:59,360
missing anything. 
Yeah, we get kind of anonymous 

464
00:27:59,360 --> 00:28:01,000
after a while. 
Just try to bang something out 

465
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,360
that large and like a condensed 
time frame. 

466
00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:07,360
I would need to walk away and 
like touch grass occasionally. 

467
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,160
Today we I finished up my 
proofreading pass on bombs 

468
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,240
bursting in air, which it was 
our mothership month module. 

469
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:21,680
So that'll be going to print 
probably this week unless 

470
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,560
anything drastic needs to 
happen. 

471
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,160
I don't think so. 
So that'll be in people's hands 

472
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,360
pretty quickly, which I'm pretty
happy about. 

473
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,600
And we'll be able to talk about 
that when it gets closer to 

474
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:38,480
hitting the street date. 
And I think so I think those are

475
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,760
our two big outstanding ones. 
And then we've got some plans 

476
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,320
for some stuff coming up later 
in the year, but we're not at 

477
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,400
liberty to discuss most of those
yet. 

478
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,560
So we're trying, trying to keep 
some, trying to keep some 

479
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,840
secrets so as to mediate 
disappointments. 

480
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,080
You know, we don't want, we 
don't want to say we're going to

481
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,520
do something and not do it if, 
if the timing is not right, you 

482
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,800
know, like so. 
Makes sense. 

483
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,880
That's why we stopped announcing
what games we were going to 

484
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,040
review because half the time we 
would just cancel or move the 

485
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,200
episode. 
So you get it when you get it, 

486
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,680
but that's cool. 
Another busy. 

487
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,000
I know this is not the beginning
of your year in the way that 

488
00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,240
like taxes and and the 
anniversary started, but sounds 

489
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,640
like 2026 beginning to end is 
going to be just as busy if not 

490
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,000
more so than 2025. 
Yep, pretty much. 

491
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,480
Nice it is anything on 
Kickstarter or backer kit? 

492
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,640
It'll be on backer kit. 
Backer kit? 

493
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,680
Do you mostly just do backer kit
only now or? 

494
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,120
The only Kickstarter we did was 
Karen. 

495
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:55,600
We'll probably do something 
larger if something comes along 

496
00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:00,440
on Kickstarter. 
I just like the tools that I 

497
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:06,520
have access to on Backer kit 
being both platforms have their 

498
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,480
drawbacks and their their pluses
and their minuses. 

499
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,960
But I really just like I know 
people who work at backer kit, 

500
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,400
you know, when I see them at 
advance, they know who I am and 

501
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,280
they know my projects and things
like that. 

502
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,000
They're not. 
It's not just like I honestly 

503
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,080
never met anyone who worked for 
Kickstarter. 

504
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,360
I've never received an e-mail 
from anyone who works at 

505
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:36,400
Kickstarter games and been like 
hi, I don't know you but you ran

506
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,280
1/4 of $1,000,000 on our 
platform. 

507
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,480
It matters because it doesn't 
matter, because RPG games still 

508
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:48,160
don't make that much prior to 
what you know, the big tech 

509
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:53,200
stuff that moves on KS. 
So like you need a you need a 

510
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:57,680
new battery powered water cooler
that also charges your car. 

511
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,960
You know, I mean, I know the 
guy, the new CEO or whatever is 

512
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,400
like all over blue sky trying to
pretend that their company isn't

513
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:10,480
what it is, but you know, it is 
what it is and an ink vein. 

514
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,560
So you can I'm going to drop 
I'll make sure the link below so

515
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:19,400
you can grab the, you know, do 
the thing with aggregate where 

516
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,080
you pledge the thing and then 
you get info about before the 

517
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:23,000
thing starts. 
But there. 

518
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:27,160
Is if you sign up for it you get
the the free 20 page quick 

519
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,280
starter or 24 page kick starter 
however big of it is. 

520
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,800
Oh, you mean this one right here
that I just pulled up? 

521
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:39,640
Yeah, marked Space Penguin. 
Yeah, and it is on at least my 

522
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,320
screen. 
It's 22 pages plus the R20 stop.

523
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,960
So yeah, it yeah. 
So you can check out Inkvane 

524
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,720
before it even starts and it 
looks dope. 

525
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,000
When I backed it, I grabbed the 
quick starter and it's somewhere

526
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,240
deep in my download, so I just 
snagged it again. 

527
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:59,520
But but it looks, you know, just
as good as you would expect all 

528
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,680
of the the space Penguin ink 
stuff to go. 

529
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:06,880
But do you do when you want to 
talk about Inkvane, you want to 

530
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,880
talk about that a lot more when 
the campaigns actually kicking? 

531
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,800
Probably next month, yeah, we'll
do that. 

532
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,160
Cool, cool, cool, cool. 
So for those listening, you can 

533
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,960
definitely go check out the 
quick start and get a little 

534
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,200
preview before we give you a 
little preview next month. 

535
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,880
But oh, I did. 
I did drop the link in chat, so 

536
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,480
you're welcome past me for 
remembering to do that. 

537
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,840
So. 
So yeah. 

538
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:32,560
So what else? 
What else we got cooking that 

539
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,280
you're allowed to talk about? 
I mean, every month we're 

540
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,840
talking, you know, Alumina 
Horror Deluxe is getting inch 

541
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,360
and inch and inch closer. 
Is there any other quick 

542
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,240
Kickstarter back with kids 
crowdfunding that's on the on 

543
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,360
the horizon that you're allowed 
to talk about after ink thing? 

544
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,800
Nothing, nothing yet. 
So we've got one. 

545
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,280
We've got one that's in the 
works for the end of the year 

546
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,920
where I'm just waiting till I 
can devote a little bit more 

547
00:32:55,920 --> 00:33:00,680
time to it, to the planning 
stages to actually make sure 

548
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,040
that it's good to go before 
saying hi. 

549
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,040
We're going to do this thing and
this is the time that we're 

550
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,080
going to do these things because
when you started, when you set 

551
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,320
that time, you need to try to 
hit that time. 

552
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:17,720
So we're we're a little bit late
on Liminal Horror Deluxe because

553
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:23,040
the book got bigger, which I'm 
hoping everyone's really happy 

554
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,480
with. 
I think everyone's going to be 

555
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,240
wonderfully impressed. 
Like I'm going through the book 

556
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,880
right now and checking out final
proofreading on everything in 

557
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,320
post layout and everything's 
looking really good and crisp 

558
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,240
and clean. 
And this is the sort of this is 

559
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:43,280
the sort of book where it's 
going to be, it's going to do 

560
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,960
exactly what it's supposed to 
do. 

561
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,920
Whereas investigators, if you 
just want to pick up a couple 

562
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,960
copies of investigators, you can
pick it up and run a rules like 

563
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,760
horror game, but this one 
actually has, you know, campaign

564
00:33:54,760 --> 00:34:00,160
frameworks and things like that 
and, and, and a bunch of extra 

565
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:04,040
material, new material inside 
it, new adventures and stuff 

566
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,640
like that. 
So like 3, it's got three, it's 

567
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,080
got 3 modules inside it, so. 
Nice. 

568
00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:12,840
I was trying to see if I had 
anything in reach that was even 

569
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:17,000
close to luminal horror. 
This is half the size of luminal

570
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,239
horror. 
So for those with the context 

571
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,760
out there, it is literally 
double as big as this book. 

572
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,600
This this thick book is. 
And it's a 6 by 9 too, right? 

573
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:26,840
Like it's probably going to be 
this size. 

574
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,800
Yeah, that's a beef. 
That's a that's a beefy. 

575
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,560
That's a you could kill someone 
with that book. 

576
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:34,639
Hey, I might. 
Hey. 

577
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:36,719
You know, there you go, Luminal 
horror adventure. 

578
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,480
The book kills you, but. 
I mean, there you go. 

579
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,440
Very excited for that. 
Yeah. 

580
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,080
I mean, you guys are 
consistently, I can't think of a

581
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,280
project you guys have ever put 
out that was late enough to make

582
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,239
me go, ha, that's kind of late. 
We were. 

583
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:57,200
We were one month and 18 days 
late on Karen and I. 

584
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,160
I hated that. 
I find that annoying because I 

585
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,520
thought that I did my due 
diligence with setting the time 

586
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:09,120
out because you can set the time
out and work to stick to a plan 

587
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,560
and do it. 
Like it's possible to do it. 

588
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,960
You're going to run into stuff, 
but you just pack in time to so 

589
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,320
that you can run into stuff. 
So. 

590
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:22,040
If only everyone thought like 
you did, maybe, you know, half 

591
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,040
that would be great. 
You know, if things don't end up

592
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,520
years late. 
That's always a risk on 

593
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,880
Kickstarter though, or or any of
the back kit projects. 

594
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,040
But I mean, you know, we talk 
about all the time, like you 

595
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,640
give a shit about what you do, 
not just a shit, all the shit 

596
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:41,920
and have a lot of pride in not 
only what you do, but how you do

597
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,560
it and how it gets done and and 
and people's experience with it,

598
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,440
which is really, really 
fantastic. 

599
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,040
You know, and I'm not, you know,
everybody feels the same way or 

600
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:55,080
everybody has the I don't know, 
it's it's even not even that 

601
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,320
they feel the way, but like the 
drive to actually accomplish it 

602
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,440
almost every single time that 
you guys have, which is really 

603
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,680
fantastic. 
So like the fact that liminal 

604
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,280
horrors like a little bit late 
because it's become bigger and 

605
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,240
better and whatever is I mean, 
when you build yourself enough 

606
00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:13,840
goodwill in that way, I feel 
like that's, you know, when 

607
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,360
something does end up late, 
inevitably, I'm sure in the, you

608
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,720
know, the decades that you guys 
are going to do this. 

609
00:36:19,720 --> 00:36:22,280
Like I feel like that's a lot 
different than someone who 

610
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,720
consistently puts out a project 
and it's just like late every 

611
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:26,560
single time. 
I feel like that's when you get 

612
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,160
a lot more super backers being 
like. 

613
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:29,680
Is it dead? 
Is it dead? 

614
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,000
Is. 
This project dead, where's my 

615
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,520
refund? 
You know, so you know, and 

616
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,480
another reason. 
If it's a few months late, I 

617
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:40,000
don't care. 
You know, if it's, if it's three

618
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,440
years late, I'm like, OK, you 
know. 

619
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,520
No, but, but again, that's not 
what you guys do and it's 

620
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,760
another reason. 
Like that's just one more thing,

621
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:53,160
one more reason that we have you
on the show consistently every 

622
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,520
month of like all the, the 
stuff, you know, it's like 

623
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,400
another reason that we like, 
enjoy and respect Space Penguin 

624
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,000
Inc and you and, and everything.
So I mean, there's a reason that

625
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,640
we don't really talk to any 
other publishers out there. 

626
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,080
And I think it's because you 
guys, realistically, I think the

627
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,440
Space Penguin is, is what you 
can hold up as like if you're 

628
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,040
starting a company or like 
making stuff for putting it out.

629
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:19,880
I think Space Penguin is kind of
like the model in my view to to 

630
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,840
try to emulate aspects of and 
again, that's you know, that's 

631
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:25,760
why we always have you on the 
show. 

632
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,880
We don't just like you as a 
person, but like as a company. 

633
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,920
You guys are great, so. 
Thanks. 

634
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,160
Yeah, we try our best. 
Like I usually get to customer 

635
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:38,920
service emails within 24 hours, 
48 over the weekend and stuff 

636
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,280
like that. 
I try to maintain a decent work 

637
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:49,640
life balance and stuff. 
But yeah, I I just try and do 

638
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:55,480
the work like I would like, like
I want to like, I'd like the 

639
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,920
work to be done to me, I guess, 
if that makes sense. 

640
00:37:58,240 --> 00:38:00,960
Yeah, so the golden rule we were
all taught as a kid and then 

641
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,960
everyone just fucking forgot it,
apparently. 

642
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,640
Of course it's how it should be.
You know, like if you were 

643
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,840
pledging for the project, how 
would you want that experience 

644
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,320
to go? 
And then just working towards 

645
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,160
that, it's a way to get it done 
right? 

646
00:38:11,720 --> 00:38:15,880
But you know, it is what it is. 
Like I said, I mean, living a 

647
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,320
horror is not even. 
It's not even that late, is it? 

648
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,440
Quote UN quote late. 
It's going to be a couple months

649
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,080
late by the time it gets out. 
Yeah, who cares? 

650
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:29,000
I was going to say I don't even 
remember it's late until like 

651
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,640
well after the six month mark 
and I only like check for 

652
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,880
updates when I get to about the 
year mark as far as like 

653
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:38,240
Kickstarter and backer kit go. 
So that's, but it's, you know, 

654
00:38:38,240 --> 00:38:40,320
it's always good to hear that no
matter how many times it 

655
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,680
happens, if you're one month 
late, you're still annoyed like 

656
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:43,960
that. 
That's what you want from your 

657
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,200
publishers and stuff. 
You know, like it's when people 

658
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,360
like whatever it was only month 
late, that's when you're like, 

659
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,280
that's a slippery slope. 
You get on there, kiddo. 

660
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,480
But yeah, we were, we were 
hoping to be in physical 

661
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,800
fulfillment in quarter one, but 
it's going to be more like 

662
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,320
quarter 2. 
So it's again, we'll be a couple

663
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,760
minutes late, couple minutes 
late, a couple of months late. 

664
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:10,080
Yeah, not a big deal, especially
God, a 460 page book. 

665
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,680
I'm, you know, check go watch 
basically every episode we've 

666
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,360
done for the past like 6 months 
and get a little teaser on on 

667
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,640
liminal horror. 
But when we when you showed off 

668
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:25,520
the the new cover of the limited
edition one can't wait to have 

669
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,240
that in hand. 
I don't know, I'm going to have 

670
00:39:27,240 --> 00:39:28,240
to empty like. 
The shelf? 

671
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:32,320
Did I show you guys the physical
of it? 

672
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:34,920
I don't. 
Know I. 

673
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,000
Don't remember. 
Let me grab this show. 

674
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,480
Us anyway. 
Show us because we we can't 

675
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,920
remember what the episode number
is every single month, even 

676
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,560
though we do it in in order. 
We definitely don't remember. 

677
00:39:45,720 --> 00:39:47,880
I think maybe, but man it looks 
great. 

678
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:49,040
Great. 
So it's. 

679
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:53,280
All shiny pretty bitching spine.
Yeah. 

680
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:57,520
And then nothing on the back. 
Just leave it like like. 

681
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,240
There you go, not. 
No barcode or anything like 

682
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:01,440
that. 
So that's beautiful. 

683
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,160
No, no sales tax. 
It's just here's your tone, you 

684
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,200
know, that's what you get, so. 
Love that 2. 

685
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,320
Two questions, is there a quote 
UN quote regular version of 

686
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,320
that? 
Was there like a non special or 

687
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,400
is the deluxe always that deluxe
version? 

688
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,800
No there. 
So there's the other version 

689
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,280
with the four pictures that. 
Yeah, I read that's what, A4 

690
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,880
portraits, Yeah. 
But then this one is a special 

691
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,120
one inspired by time, life, 
Mysteries of the Unknown book 

692
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:31,560
series and stuff like that. 
And so Zach did his best, best 

693
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:36,000
homage to that like and made it 
all really cool and pretty. 

694
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,800
Now is that black or is that a 
dark Navy blue? 

695
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,040
It's black. 
Nice. 

696
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:42,440
Nice. 
Yeah, nice. 

697
00:40:43,240 --> 00:40:45,920
I don't know why my mind every 
time I thought of the mock up, I

698
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,840
always thought of it as like a 
dark Navy blue. 

699
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,720
But obviously, you know, black 
is the way to go with most 

700
00:40:51,720 --> 00:40:53,960
things. 
Yeah, that looks sick. 

701
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,800
Cannot wait. 
And it's 460 beefy pages, which 

702
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:58,880
is that's. 
Going to be a big one. 

703
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,600
Beefy. 
Insane. 

704
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,120
But you said three adventures. 
I mean, we've talked about it. 

705
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,280
I mean, we've had again, for 
those who want more in liminal 

706
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,520
horror stuff, Josh has actually 
come on the show and given a 

707
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,880
breakdown of everything that's 
going to be in the book with 

708
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,880
like a presentation and 
everything that you can go back 

709
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,280
and watch. 
And I'm very excited for all the

710
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:18,320
tools and whatnot to actually 
actually play the game. 

711
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:22,440
So it's just crazy what liminal 
horror has become because I 

712
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:26,920
remember just snagging the 
original Zine way back in the 

713
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,240
day and now we're here talking 
about the 460 page fancy, you 

714
00:41:32,240 --> 00:41:34,960
know, limited deluxe black and 
silver cover stuff. 

715
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,320
I don't know. 
It's it's awesome and it can 

716
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,920
happen to better people than 
Goblin Archives and and Josh. 

717
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,720
The best of the area is my 
favorite part because not only 

718
00:41:44,720 --> 00:41:47,680
is there a big best of the area,
the catalog of the strange that 

719
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,160
details like all that weird 
shit, right? 

720
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:58,640
There's also more scenario 
specific best theories that go 

721
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,760
along with the actual models 
themselves that are in there. 

722
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:08,280
So yeah, there's a shit there's 
a shit ton of monsters you can. 

723
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,720
I'm not saying you could never 
run out of monsters, but you'll 

724
00:42:12,720 --> 00:42:16,720
get the idea for building of how
to build your own monsters like 

725
00:42:16,720 --> 00:42:19,680
pretty quickly. 
You know, what I'm really 

726
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:23,720
excited for is like 6 months 
after that book is physically in

727
00:42:23,720 --> 00:42:26,880
people's hands. 
The influx of third party stuff 

728
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:31,240
that we're going to get for it 
because the, with the tools that

729
00:42:31,240 --> 00:42:35,040
are in there tonight only like 
you said, like Obesiary, but how

730
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,600
to make your own monsters, All 
of the information on how to 

731
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,160
like write your own adventures 
and stuff for it. 

732
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,000
There's going to, I think like 
there's going to be so much 

733
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,480
stuff for it. 
And that is going to be a really

734
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,400
cool, you know, we'll we'll get 
living a horror month eventually

735
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:51,760
down the road and they'll get 
one of the 12 that exists, but 

736
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,000
being much deserved. 
I mean, Goblin Archives is is an

737
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,040
incredible person and and Josh 
is great and I can't think of a 

738
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,440
better match made in heaven than
those two in you so. 

739
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,440
And hey, listen, you know, if 
you want to learn how to maybe 

740
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:07,920
adapt like a mystery into like a
liminal horror adventure, we 

741
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,160
have a video for that in 
channel. 

742
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,440
Yeah, I forget half the videos 
that we do. 

743
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:15,080
Like people will be like, oh, 
you did this. 

744
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,160
I'm like, oh, that's cool, I'm 
glad we did that. 

745
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:25,360
But but yeah, anything else 
cooking with SPI or are we going

746
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,960
to save anything else for for 
next month? 

747
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:29,280
We should schedule next month 
soon too. 

748
00:43:31,240 --> 00:43:33,880
I think we should save it for 
next month because next month 

749
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:38,040
we'll be Harry Con and launching
Ink Vein and so we'll cover Ink 

750
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:45,320
Vein and Dungeons of Galore and 
the rest of the monthly on 

751
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,160
catalog. 
I got to look, I got to look, 

752
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,160
hang on real quick. 
I got to look and see what 

753
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,160
happens after I can tell you 
titles. 

754
00:43:52,280 --> 00:44:06,960
Oops, I'm in the wrong. 
So there was hang the DJ Galora 

755
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:14,720
is coming up and even gets, 
which is a cool new skirmish 

756
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:18,440
system. 
So rules light made by a guy 

757
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:22,120
named Liam Toner and he had his 
kids be as play testers. 

758
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,840
So it's definitely going to be 
one that you can pick up and 

759
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:32,120
play with adults, playing games 
with their kids and teaching the

760
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,840
kids how to play these skirmish 
games. 

761
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,240
It's not in any way, shape or 
form aimed at kids. 

762
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,720
It's just aimed at simplified 
rules to make it easy to play. 

763
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,880
So it's going to be pretty neat.
It makes use of a scatter dye, 

764
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:54,600
which that here's to show how 
little knowledge I have outside 

765
00:44:54,720 --> 00:44:57,600
skirmish, outside of like 
Forbidden Solomon, things like 

766
00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:59,440
that. 
And like Necromunda. 

767
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:01,760
I didn't know what a scatter die
was. 

768
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:06,360
I had to purchase a scatter die.
I've just never, I've never 

769
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:10,520
played a game that had one of 
them in there, So there. 

770
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,160
You go. 
Well, I mean, that means A, you 

771
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,280
got to start skirmishing more 
with us and B, we are leaning 

772
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:19,840
way heavier into skirmish 
lately. 

773
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:25,240
So it's cool to see more 
skirmish stuff on, on the, on 

774
00:45:25,240 --> 00:45:27,480
the space Penguin catalog. 
So excited for that. 

775
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,320
And we've talked about this a 
bunch of times. 

776
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,480
I don't remember last time we 
talked about it, but games that 

777
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,520
can be played by kids but are 
fun for adults are some of the 

778
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:41,440
best games because I mean, we're
I know I'm of an age where like 

779
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,840
I could have had kids and they'd
be old enough to play RPGs. 

780
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,560
So, you know, like Mao 
straighter, for example, is such

781
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,000
a great game because no matter 
how old you are, you can have 

782
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,120
the kind of fun you want to have
with it, which is which is 

783
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,400
really neat. 
So a skirmish game that is 

784
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,800
actually simplified enough that,
like, kids could pick it up and 

785
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,120
play it sounds dope. 
Because that just means that 

786
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,800
it's not too complicated to play
it anytime you want to just pick

787
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,640
it up and run it and, you know, 
not have your brain had to be on

788
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,840
110% to get all of your 80 guys 
in rank in five. 

789
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,840
I'm moving in the same 
direction, you know, So cool. 

790
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,640
Excited for that. 
Yeah, fuck you. 

791
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:18,680
I got to play third edition 
Warhammer Fantasy the other day,

792
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,680
rank and file with only like 16 
guys. 

793
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,600
And man, I, I still can't 
imagine playing something that 

794
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,280
takes like 80 dudes. 
We're moving in units and stuff.

795
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,000
But I'll get there eventually. 
So yeah. 

796
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,840
You probably will. 
Yeah, I mean, I have all the 

797
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,560
pieces together to put my Night 
Lords Horse NFC 3.0 army 

798
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:37,840
together. 
I just have to finally get it 

799
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,800
done. 
But we'll get there eventually. 

800
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,760
But. 
But yeah, so then we'll say that

801
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:48,760
for next month. 
That'll be episode 19 of Space 

802
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,080
Penguin Inc, not Cat Chats here 
on the show. 

803
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:53,560
Yeah. 
Andy is who I'm supposed to say 

804
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,400
whore is here to stay with. 
And he's like, do it, get it 

805
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:56,320
done. 
I'm trying, Andy. 

806
00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:59,200
I'm trying. 
And he's sort of in Raven Guard.

807
00:46:59,960 --> 00:47:01,440
So. 
So we'll get there eventually. 

808
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,640
But jerk, always a pleasure. 
Thank you for being here. 

809
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,520
Thank you for coming on. 
We'll have to schedule next 

810
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,560
month in between Gary Con and 
Adepticon and things we can talk

811
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,960
about this stuff. 
So all. 

812
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,680
The cons. 
All the cons can't wait. 

813
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,360
Cool. 
Thanks for having me on as 

814

Pleasure, of course.
