Kev considers a Graboid-infested New York in The Days After Ragnarok, then moves on to the strange events aboard the colony ship “Manhattan”.

Kev mixes The Goonies, The Dirty Dozen, & a dash of Gremlins, all while wondering what, exactly, a Goblin Paradise might look like, and how you’d find one if you needed to.
Craig heads for the movie Labyrinth by a roundabout route, and contemplates both massive political upheaval and the Terrible Madness Of The Goblin King.
Ben starts with the French cinema during World War Two and ends up with an all-Goblin theater troupe.
Tonya traces the roots of the word ‘Goblin’, and takes us, through household gods and mine-spirits, to the last desperate search for a home for the scattered members of the Goblin diaspora

{Tonya sez:- I did a web search on this phrase when we drew the card, and as a result watched the movie ‘Legend’ for the first time. There is a reason that the movie is not mentioned in the show. There are parts of Tom Cruise and his Magic Pants that I never need to see again.}

Important Note!: For the next week or so, Bundle of Holding have a pay-what-you want sale on Fate-related PDFs with no bookmarking or DRM. For any price you want, you get Fate Core, Fate Accelerated, Full Moon, and Spirit of the Century. If you pay more than the average, you unlock The Kerberos Club, Legends of Anglerre and Starblazer Adventures.

That’s a crazily good deal, and Fate Core, Fate Accelerated and The Kerberos Club are very highly recommended. Given how often they feature in our Game Resources page, that should already be pretty obvious…

And now we return you to our regularly-scheduled Show Notes.
