Summoning the Citadel: A Special World-Building Fireside Chat

Since Brennan was away becoming a baby daddy during much of Chapter 2 and the citadel arc was chock full of extremely fun building-of-da-world, we thought it would be fun to have a whole SPECIAL EPISODE dedicated to the world building of The Wizard the Witch and the Wild One. I am already so sick of typing "world building." From now on I will call it... Debbie. So here the gang has gathered to answer all your Debbie questions!  But BE NOT AFRAID, it's not JUST a behind the scenes Debbie ...

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: Fireside Chat for Chapter 2

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep023 “On Your Way"

The gang is scattered. Bridges are burned. Where friends falter, new allies grow like mighty oaks. There are wars and rumors of wars, but be not afraid, sisters. We are all on our way to somewhere. Whether we like it or not.  

Thus concludes Chapter 2 of The Wizard the Witch and the Wild One! See you [with a return to the story] in April! In the meantime, we 'bout to have some FUN on this...

Fireside Chat for WWW ep22 "Bring Them to Me"

The whole cast fights about whose fault the episode was.  The guilty party is determined, but will they show remorse? Will they receive mercy? Only YOU THE LISTENER can decide! JK, all crime is legal now, we Purgin' baby!

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep022 “Bring Them to Me"

When there is no path, you make a path by walking. The rest of us are just following orders. Slow down, you're moving too fast, you got to make the moment last. Is a trap a trap if you like it? Bad news kiddo, wherever you go, there you are.

Witch Class Playtest Survey

A meeting of the Coven of Elders is nigh … and meanwhile, our Coven of Designers is eager to receive your official feedback on the witch class! We promise that, unlike certain Elder Coven witches, we have Ame’s best interests at heart. In fact, we want to make her abilities (and Fox) even better—and that’s where you come in.

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep020 “Later Than You Think"

Tick tock. Tick tock. What time is it? How much is left? Can we have five more minutes? The gang's investigation has pierced the veil of the Citadel, and peering back at them through the penumbra is the great iron face of a clock, hands moving up and down, rotating and returning like the silent islands in the sky. Hands that hold you back, spin you round, or throw you, gasping.

Fireside Chat for WWW ep19 "Kith and Kin"

PERMISSION TO BE WEIRD: GRANTED.  Except for you Devonte, put down the trains! The triumvirate returns to "discuss" kith, kin, pvp, and oh let's see what else, oh right, PLAY BAG IT OR TAG IT.  Airhorn sound.

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep019 “Kith and Kin"

History, almost everybody's got some. Very hard to get rid of. Keeps repeating itself. If you're lucky, and work hard, you can just maybe learn from it, but you're gonna need a team. A family. You're gonna need allies. And if you have any extra of those, lemme know...it's for a friend.<...

WBN Unofficial Cookbook Club: Suvi's Bone Marrow Sandwich

Hi again from the WBN social media manager! I'm excited to share with you all my next creation for the WBN Unofficial Cookbook Club.

I had to make Suvi's favorite bone marrow sandwich from Ep. 16; the description of its taste and textures sounded unlike anything I had ever tried before. Learning on the Ep. 16 Fireside Chat that Aabria basically invented this sandwich during a holiday trip made it extra special.

I bought the beef bones at my local supermarket, drizzled a little oil...

Fireside Chat for WWW ep18 "Between the Lines"

The Worlds Beyond Number Fireside Chat REMAINS the ONLY Private Narrative/Actual Play Patreon talkback podcast that will have you screaming "Cis WHAT!?" out loud in front of your colleagues, copains, and caretakers this week. Enjoy!

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep018 “Between the Lines"

Wars and rumors of wars. Thrilling new weapons to titillate the thanatos urge of even the most inured imperial citizen. Heroes-to-be assemble and depart. While the Citadel mobilizes for battle, the gang hits the books. Names ancient and new swim to the sun dappled surface of understanding, the grand picture ever clearer. Careful though: the books do, occasionally, hit back.

WBN Holiday Schedule

Just a quick FYI on our show's upcoming holiday schedule! Episode 18's main story and Fireside will release as usual, followed by a two-week break. And then we ring in the New Year with Ep. 19! 

We hope everyone has a relaxing, magical December!

Fireside Chat for WWW ep17 "Say My Name"

The PC's come together from the Holiday Road (and a wild variety of sound environments) to talk about Name Days and bathroom bangin. Meanwhile our guest stars begin to form some sort of...initiative...a team if you will, of...remarkable individuals. 

[PUBLIC EPISODE] The Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One: ep017 “Say My Name"

Names are great. They let people know what to call things. You can read them, write them, put them on a list. If you know someone's name you can send them things, invite them places, say it quietly, in wonder or fear. A name can stick in your mouth like butter or blood. You can make one up, get a new name, do whatever you want. No downsides. None.

WBN Cookbook Club Launch! (Very Unofficial)

The WBN team strives to make the world of Umora as richly imagined as possible, and the fun thing about being mainly audio-only is that so much of what is described is up for personal interpretation, including the food!

We (aka the social media manager who loves to cook at home 😉) wanted to try our hand at the deliciously described Candle Street goodies: this is the croissant with marshmallow and chocolate, as described by Eursulon to Ame.

I don’t have the skill or patience...

Fireside Chat for WWW ep16 "Everything"

A special guest joins Aabria and Erika to cover for Brennan (who is sill lost in Panama's infamous Darién Gap) as they discuss the world building festival fever dream of episode 16, food glorious food, and invent a new segment called Bag It or Tag It, where the players must choose to BAG IT...or TAG IT! What would YOU choose, listener?
