This special one shot of We Play RPG's is a Savage Worlds game we played using the Interface Zero 2.0 setting by Gun Metal Games.  The explanation at the front of the podcast will give most of the pertinents and such.  I cannot recommend this setting enough if you are a fan of Shadowrun, Cyberpunk 2027, or games like Android Netrunner.  Enjoy the little outtake at the end as well.
