Lore Club Worldbuilder for sale

I have written a niche, non-comedy dungeons and dragons world builder for a fantasy tabletop RPG campaign setting. You can find it in our shop for five bucks.

This is the kind of stuff you are going to see in it. You basically know already if you are the type of person who is into this stuff or not.

E1 from the Archive: 091–105

Lots of episodes worth listening (or re-listening) to in this batch. Uncle's Houseboat featuring Felix, Will, and Matt and another live show (#93) with Felix. I would say that the Amazon AmbassadorCast, Terre Haute Hills Neighborhood Association Meeting, and Intervention of Charles Austin are all very durable fan favorites. Episode 100 is 4 1/2 hours long with dozens of guests, and #103 is worth checking out because we just did an E2 of it last week.

This time we've got our mecha ripoff (Exodus Gaiden), Star Trek ripoff (Space Galaxy), and the all-timer Uncle's Houseboat that gave birth to The Dopeness characters that we still do all the time. I vaguely remember Felix singing a song on Harvard Men about gathering around the gay old pole, you don't get to hear Felix sing often so maybe that's worth revisiting. Pretty sure Let People Enjoy Things is Matt Christman's first appearance as well.

Lots of good ones here. Who Wants to Be Food and Terre Haute Emergency Services are pretty durable fan favorites. I believe #67 is the first appearance of dril, and #69 with Dan Boeckner and Keith Buckley and #75 are both fun music episodes.

This week we have some of our early experiments with different episode formats (E1 Sells Out, AAA Ball) and some guest appearances from Felix (Pancakes and Prayers) and Taylor (Gun for Hire). In a sense the E1 Sells Out episode is the first pseudo-scripted episode. We were starting to think about how a podcast doesn't have to be just guys talking.
