Humpday RPG Show 3.31.21 with Special Guest Ian Yusem

 

Image by Evlyn Moreau

Aside from the actual PLAYING of games, my favorite things about this wonderful hobby are those two bastions of DIY creativity, zines and blogs. Join me each Wednesday on the Thought Eater podcast as I share the blogposts, zines, and RPG bric-a-brac that caught my eye over the week.

Have you started a new blog recently? Are you working on a zine? Are you a content creator that would like to be considered for an interview on the show? Want to send me review copies of what you're working on? I want to hear from you! Email me at frothsof at gmail, hit me up on Twitter, or use the contact form on my blog (visible in desktop mode in the right-hand column).

You can join the show by calling in at anchor.fm/thoughteater or via the Anchor app! The Thought Eater podcast is available on all major platforms, or you can use the player below to scroll along with each topic.

Thought Eater Podcast: Five Minute Friday: Nobody is Playing Sci-Fi Games

Yes that title is pure clickbait. People are playing in sci-fi games. There just aren't a lot of them in comparison to fantasy and horror, according to data shared over at the Trilemma Adventures blog. Let's discuss!
