Quick Update

Going to shake things up on the podcast a bit. Won't be posting show notes here any more and I've taken down all the podcast posts that don't have comments on them. The blog, I think, is better suited for long form, persistent content: while the podcast is almost social media, ephemeral conversation. And more so, I don't like how, when I have several episodes in a row, the podcast can drown out blog-form content: which totally defeats the aforementioned purpose - sharing persistent posts with perennial utility.

Show notes will still be available on the podcast, itself, and I will continue doing a YouTube video with each. The feeds shouldn't be changing. But I didn't realize when I started it how the podcast was going to block out everything else - SEO, blog entries, and so on.

So for folks who came to read - not to listen - apologies: I should have that fixed now.

And for folks who like the podcast - listen on! I think you'll be happy with where we're going. 

Delve on, everyone.

Horror in my Home Game: Part 2

Anchor.fm/Clerics-Wear-Ringmail: Episode 3 -
Horror in my Home Game: Part 2!

Description

How can you successfully integrate horror into your home game? This episode continues looking into the pillars of horror - focusing on Revulsion - and answers some call-ins: both regarding the horror subject and regarding the podcast, in general. 

Some segments of rough audio - but again, having learned from the experience, it's better than it was and will continue to improve.
