Tonya introduces us to Autograph-Hunting in a village filled with Stars of the Silver Screen. And their relatives.
Kev wonders about the role of a Police Force in a village with more than the usual number of Mad Scientists, trying to stop a strange town from getting any stranger.
Ben considers Mad Science Rehab.
Craig wonders about the one place on Earth where all of this Weird-Ass stuff actually works.

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.

In which Ben imagines a crack team of crystal-wielding homeopathic commandos protecting the spiritual sanctity of the President; Craig unleashes both sanctioned/competent and unsanctioned/kooky shadowy cabals of occult librarians; Tonya imagines a ‘How to Host a Murder’ session about manipulating the soul of a CEO; and Kev gets sleep deprived and rants about Voltron. Along the way, we imagine a game where chakras are embodied in people… and what that might look like in the example of The Wire.

hopefully a different shirt every day, because otherwise … ewww

[Edit by Tonya]- He left out that he has a very long plait. Just in case you spot him from behind. Ask him for a bookmark, he has plenty! (that may or may not be covered in BRC propaganda)

We’ve added a How To Play At Home page to the sidebar.

More than that, we’d like to include your game pitches in the podcast.
