Following a bizarre rumour, a lonely artist and her dog come to an all-night diner on the outskirts of the city. The fog is closing in, and the spirits of the departed begin to congregate. Our artist has a meeting due with someone very important, and she will not be deterred.

The D4s go on their second score - a cache of fireworks could prove invaluable when fighting the undead. They are easily distracted after all. But how can cache of such fragile items survive in the Loss for so long?

An unknown attacker severely injured Randolph Carter and Joel Manton in an Arkham cemetery late at night on September 23, 1923 . The police reports we have chalked it up to a loose bull, but no such animal was ever found or reported missing. What really happened that dark night?
We only have questions now, but I have invited another expert, Claire Morin, to delve into the past and shine light on the case. She has new evidence to support her theory of the crime. Listen in to find out mor...

It's a true crime podcast trying to figure out what the fuck happened in Arkham during the 1920s and 30s. In other words, taking Lovecraft's stories and assuming they are regular crimes.
I would like to change the month...

We're celebrating the release of Godzilla vs Kong with a kaiju-themed board game from TSR! Gammrauders was a sci-fi war game about giant animal cyborgs (bioborgs) who fight for control of the post-apocalyptic wasteland. Aaron, Noah, Rob, and I talk about the game's setting, mechanics, and more importantly, how should this game be rebooted? From dating sims to miniature-based skirmish games, there are quite a few ways to remake Gammarauders.
Termination Shock is a sci-fi RPG written by Greg Stolze. It's about exploring the universe in a post-scarcity future where humans are the new kids on the galactic block. In this adventure, a family of humans and an alien pal (Mr. Stabs) discover a new planet and survey it.

I forgot to post a game on RPPR Actual Play on December 31 but kept up here and so now the games are out of sync here and on the podcast. As you may know, RPPR Actual Play alternates between a campaign and a one shot. In order to get things back to normal, I am skipping a week for an early access AP episode.
