Toying with the idea of a podcast

Because I obviously don't have enough projects on my plate at the moment, I've had a go at making my first (RPG) podcast over on anchor.fm (you can find it HERE or down below).




As usual, I'm a bit nervous about trying something like this - but since I listen to a few podcasts on anchor, I thought I'd give it a try myself.

Anyway, one of the cool features of the anchor (mobile) app is that listeners can use their phone to call in (for free) with questions/comments/replies/etc. ...which can then be addressed in future episodes.

So, since episode one is live, here's the show notes:

0:00 - Intro

0:35 - A brief recap of my introduction to RPGs. In this segment I reference the Bashki Lord of the Rings cartoon. What I actually meant was the one made by Ralph Bakshi (I was close at least) ...i.e. this one:

3:09 - In this part I talk about the Eye of The Beholder documentary on Amazon Prime, and the Secrets of Blackmoor on Vimeo.

5:24 - Drama at the RPG club I've been attending for a decade :(

6:52 - In this final segment I mention my latest release (the dungeon pamphlet), and talk a little bit about the YouTube Channel.

8:44 - Outro


Note that all the music and sound effects that appear in this episode are from www.zapsplat.com.

    2. Oh ...and thanks for the call in (took me a while to figure out where those are stored ...as the e-mail notification went straight into my junk folder for some reason :S ).

    1. Yeah, the club thing is a bit of a sad sorry mess (I probably shouldn't have mentioned it to be honest - might have been better to keep episode one more positive), but it's good to hear that your own is doing well.
