Humpday Blog-O-Rama 3.4.20

Blogs are an integral, vital part of the RPG hobby. They serve as incubators for new games, sounding boards for fresh ideas, and platforms for up-and-coming talent. They keep "forgotten" games alive, foster discussions, and build communities.

Every Wednesday on the Thought Eater podcast and blog, I take a look at what is going on in the vibrant RPG blog scene. Check out previous Humpday Blog-O-Rama posts HERE.

Thought Eater Podcast: Five Minute Friday: A Hypothetical Question

Fridays on the Thought Eater podcast I do really short episodes of five minutes or less. Today I was thinking about this hypothetical question I saw on social media. Basically, you have to flee your residence and you only have a few seconds. You can only grab ONE rpg product. What is it?

Tough question for you? Or do you know what you would grab instantly? Leave a comment and let me know!

You can hear what ol' Froth grabbed RIGHT HERE.
