I was a Guest on the Down in a Heap Podcast!

Hey everybody. I know it has been a while. Like many of you, I have been thrown for a loop by the virus. I hope to be back to some semblance of normalcy soon. In the meantime, I was thrilled to be a guest on Rob C's excellent Down in a Heap podcast. We discussed our own personal "Appendix Ns". Check it out HERE or listen with the embedded player.

Humpday Blog-O-Rama 3.11.20

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.

Sunday Zine Club #7 (Guest: 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. I tackle blogs every week on Humpday Blog-O-Rama...and now on Sundays I bring you Sunday Zine Club! Pocketmods, pamphlets, digest-sized, PDFs...I love them all! Expect cool features, news, reviews, interviews, and more! All of the links mentioned on the podcasts will be listed here on the blog, much like the Humpday show.

You can "join the club" and make the show better. Are you working on a zine? Do you have zine-related news to share? Would you like to send me a review copy or to be considered for an interview on the show? I want to hear from you! Email me at frothsof at gmail or use the contact form on my blog (visible in desktop mode in the right-hand column).
