We Play RPGs! Part 1: The Scarlet Riders

You've heard it mentioned in our other episodes, and I've finally gotten around to chopping it up.  We Play RPGs, our sister podcast that involves us playing tabletop RPG games.  The first in our series is the Evernight setting for the Savage Worlds RPG system.  When we conclude this game, we will move on to other games.  You can suggest something for us to play by sending us an email at this address.  In these episodes:

• We introduce our characters and find out more about the world of Tarth.
• We meet Lord McGowan, and his manservant, the most uninterested man in the world.
• We explore the forest, and kill 10 wolves.
• We learn that Kale has a terrible fear of small spaces, and an even more terrible fear of beachballs with buzzsaw mouths and tiny T-Rex arms (listen and that will make way more sense, trust me).
• And much more, including ORCS!

Episode 8: APPLEJUICE!

In this episode of We Talk To Ourselves:

• Video Game Tropes.  Grab your whole chicken and prepare for a stealth mission to Zombieville!  We talk about those annoying things that seem to pop up in every game these days.
• Upstaging bastards!  Those characters in your favorite media that hog the spotlight from the main characters.
• Good night sweet prince.  Characters that were cut down in their prime.  Whether for dramatic effect or just plain annoyance, we wax nostalgic on those poor souls who had promise and got the axe in a a way most foul.
• No wait I wasn-.  Creepy cutoffs often leave the audience wondering what the hell happened in that storyline that was just being played out.  We discuss some of the weirder cutoff storylines in media, including some of the creepy crap Nickelodeon tried to pass off as children's television.
• From the page to the screen.  An indictment of modern cinema's love of throwing acid in the face of everything we love from books and comics. 
• Outtake!  Chris tells us about how beer is not applejuice!
