The Bear Swarm! Podcast http://www.bearswarm.com An Explicit RPG\Geek Culture Podcast Mon, 30 Aug 2010 14:01:28 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Bear Swarm! Podcast features a group of no less then two but upwards of six friends who all game together. We record the show at a local shop, Meta Games Unlimited (www.MGUinc.com), and game after we finish recording. We are vulgar, crude, and sometimes offensive but we are always laughing. The group has seen a number of faces and is always looking to expand our host roster. Varying experiences and opinions in our cast means hopefully you can find someone on our team that you can relate to and trust. The show starts with us sitting around and bantering about our lives before moving into a weekly gaming-related topic. From time to time we step away from the table and talk about other topics but since we are all brought together by gaming its what we always fall back on. One of our big goals with the podcast is to build a community of like minded gamers via our message board. We plan to be receptive to listener input and are even willing to read things on the air from the forums or comments. Be warned, we do not censor much of our broadcast. Not family friendly and only safe for work if you have got headphones.

Game: Joe Prince’s Hell 4 Leather
Music : All music used with permission of Ghoultown™
Song Used: Dead Outlaw

There are two files being submitted for your consumption.
The first is the edited story only version. All of the table talk has been trimmed out and music has been added at the front and back of the track. This only contains the story told with Hell 4 Leather.
The second is the raw, uncut, unedited, version. Everything was left in, pauses, stammers, and even a couple contradictions. This file contains everything we said while playing Hell 4 Leather.

There is some information that was determined prior to play. This game was used as a prelude to a full campaign and as such some ground work was laid before hand. More details can be found on the Obsidian Portal page. After the break is the basic information the players were told prior to play.

Pitch Notes

  • Concept: A biker gang operating on the edge of society, protecting the little they have and trying the best they can to survive.
  • Setting: A Post-Post-Apocalyptic Wastelands\Desert. New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada feeling. Vast city-states. Tiered Society: The Utopian Cities, The Surrounding Slums, The Power Communes, and The Wassters
  • Theme: Punk Rock; Lower Tiers = Sticking it to the High Tiers, Mid-Tiers = Making the best of things, High Tiers = Selling out but maintaining image.
  • Mood: Angry and Fighting Back, Rebirth and Change, Stereotypes exist for a reason, Ouroboros.
  • Aspects: Rebuilding what was lost, growing an organization, acquiring means for survival, bringing the fight to the enemy, taking control, reigning supreme, being the big dogs.
  • Religion: Most believe that God is dead, killed in the War. There have been no major organized religions in thousands of years. There are still hundreds of faiths and small assemblies, but they tend to be more communal than spiritual.
  • Cultism: The exception to the lack of Religion is the growth of the Cult. There are hundreds of groups that worship dark nameless gods of death, destruction, and domination. Cults are most common out in the Wastes but are a very real problem for Utopians.
  • Supernatural: Unknown, unaccounted for, undocumented, uninvolved.
  • Technology: Varies wildly. In the lower tiers it’s mostly mechanical, computers are rarities. Tumbler locks, crank engines, clockwork contraptions. Almost a Victorian-era or steam-punk feel. In the higher tiers they have cutting edge tech, nano-technology, cyberpunk level computer systems.
  • Vehicles: Powered mostly by heat or kinetic energy. Engines are designed to use the by-product energy their produce but it’s not a perfect cycle. Still require re-fueling on a regular basis. In the Power Communes motorcycles are a common means of transportation due to their minor energy draw.
  • Weapons: Without the oils required to maintain a firearm the most common weapons have become swords and bows again. This isn’t to say there aren’t guns, their just a rarity now. After finding a gun you still have to find bullets, which haven’t been mass-produced in thousands of years.

Basic Questions

What’s the gang’s name?: The Edge Runners
What is the name of the Commune that the gang protects?: Diamondhead

All of us. Rob, Mike, Art, Paul, and even Matt!

In addition to audio recording, Rob has decided to tempt fate and try to do some live UStream broadcasts! While there are rules about what can and can’t be broadcast he feels fairly confidant that you can at least check in on a bunch of nerds hanging out in a hotel room.

Are you going to GenCon? Want to get a hold of us? We’ll make it easy for you. After the break is all the details you’ll need to reach various members of Bear Swarm!

Rob

Odds are good that Rob is your best point of contact while at GenCon. If he’s not around the other guys at the time, he’ll be able to get a hold of them. With is new phone there are more ways then ever to reach Rob, but every service (other then a direct phone call) could have up to a 15 minute delay.

In this episode Sasha returns from a long hiatus to talk about prohibition and cocktails during the 1920s. His guest is Artemis Knight form the Bear Swarm! podcast (http://www.bearswarm.com/). Since they are both gaming geeks, the Call of Cthulhu role playing game is mentioned.

Sasha also explains why it’s been so long since the last episode, and asks you wonderful folks to help him make future shows be more frequent: Send in questions for him to answer on the show via email to podcast@pixlee.net or, better yet, leave him a voice mail at (510) 394-4461 (that’s (510) 394-GIN-1).

In this very special episode of VTT (Vozes da Terceira Terra, Portuguese for “Voices of the Third Earth”), Marcelo and Ivar get together with Artemis and Paul (and a Mike cameo) from The Bear Swarm Podcast (www.bearswarm.com) to talk about rewards and role-play: should the GM reward role-playing from the players or should he/she not?

[06:35] Qualifying “reward”.
[14:15] The rewardless approach.
[24:20] Loquacious people.
[27:25] How to reward and don’t punish.
[31:45] The downside of no role-playing.
[36:45] Vozes de Fundo: Pride & Prejudice.

[06:35] Qualifying “reward”. [14:15] The rewardless approach. [24:20] Loquacious people. [27:25] How to reward and don’t punish. [31:45] The downside of no role-playing.

Mike from the Bear Swarm! podcast joins us on the show this week. He’s here as part of their Take a Couple of Months Off Grand Tour. ;-)

We start with our usual discussion of what’s on our radar this week, which led to a discussion of the merits (or should that be demerits) of Final Fantasy XIII. Blood Bowl, Magna Carta 2, and Turf Wars Online are all discussed, as well.

We also put Mike through the Top Ten wringer, harassing him about his decision to flaunt some of our rules, while also admitting that he makes some valid objections to those same rules. The list won’t make a show-note appearance, so you’ll have to listen to hear Mike’s shocking (Shocking, I say!) pick for Number One.*
*Mike’s Number One pick may or may not be all that terribly shocking.

In this episode, we have a special guest: Mike from Bear Swarm. We discuss why edition wars and hating on games in discussions is a pointless endeavor and why people endlessly flame each other over them. We also talk about Catalyst Game Labs and of course, Tom has a letter.

Shout Outs:

  • Triangle: A great horror film that is better the less you know about it before you watch it.
  • Pandemic: A board game about stopping a global pandemic. You usually fail.
  • Imaginary Monsters: A web comic about monsters and dungeons.
  • Poo: A card game about monkeys flinging poo.
  • Casshern: The live action Japanese 2007 sci-fi flick. Crazy effects and nonsensical plot.
  • MD Geist: Ultra violent 80s anime that features gamer logic.
  • Iron Tyrants: ROBOT SMASHING FIGHTING TIME
  • Sin Titulo: Eisner nominated web comic. Very creepy and a great read.

Music: Cataclysmic Crash by Game Over.

For those of you who haven’t heard us talk about it: Obsidian Portal is a role-playing game campaign management site. They offer a place to chronicle your campaigns by providing a wiki, blog, image hosting, character pages, and more. For a small fee you can get an upgraded “Ascendant Membership” that offers more features, more space, and no advertisements.

We’ve been a fan of Obsidian Portal since December ’07, well before Bear Swarm! even existed. When we were contracted for potential sponsorship there wasn’t even any discussion amongst the hosts about if this is something we’d want to help promote. We all agreed and a deal was hammered out.

Upon our return episode, #111, we will have a small plug for Obsidian Portal worked into the show similar to how we promote MetaGames and Ghoultown. While we don’t want to fill our show with commercials and adverts we do I want to help support the people and organizations that we are fans of. We promise that you’ll never see a sponsorship with something we don’t personally stand behind.

Turns out, Matt’s dad is a… rug… guy… I’m not sure what the technical name is. Regardless, the guy deals with rugs, doormats, and that sort of stuff. After we got Matt hooked on Supernatural, he got his mom and dad hooked too. Really, it was only a matter of time before this happened:

That’s right, its a Devil’s Trap Doormat. You want to get your hands on one of these bad boys? Cruise your browser over to Specialtydoormats.com and place your orders! Their look wicked awesome. We all have one. They are epic.

UPDATE: Devil’s Trap Rugs!
Why were weren’t informed of these sooner, I’ll never know. Still, better late then never to cruise your browser over to Specialtydoormats.com and put in an order!

We don’t really talk about it or draw attention to it at all but we’ve still had a few people kind enough to take notice and fill out the survey. I figured it was past time to share some of the feedback we’ve gotten with our audience.

All of these surveys are anonymous so I have no idea who said what, but that’s not important. Chime in and sound off on the comments that other listeners have already been vocal about.

(From 8/26/08 – 12/29/09)

  • It is fun to listen to and doesn’t get dry. They cover a lot of games and podcast for the sake of podcasting.
  • easy to listen, lots of info, fun, and entertaining
  • The excellent balance of entertaining host bullshittery and semi-useful rpg discussion.
  • Great cast rapport, lots of humor.
  • RPG topics
  • The report of the hosts is the best of any podcast I listen to.
  • I enjoy the banter between the hosts and topic discussion.
  • Their comprehensive discussions of the various facets of roleplaying games.
  • Gaming information on games I’m not familiar with and their trying out and testing games. World design.
  • The banter.
  • humour / banter between hosts, (non) advice for gaming.
  • Matt, Mike, Rob (not necessarily in that order). Banter topics are good. No censorship.
  • The humor, the banter, the back-and-forth between the hosts on topics relating to gaming and genre entertainment.
  • Good banter and hosts. Reularity of episodes. And most of all, “becoming recorded”!
  • The banter between the hosts
  • The banter portions of the show.
  • The hosts bullshitting. Also, the word fuck.
  • the attitude and personalities of hosts
  • I enjoy the banter and interhost dynamic. Listening to nerds talk about nerdy things.
  • Randomness that makes them so funny, the way things are gone through and talked about.
  • Gamer talk

Dislikes

(From 8/26/08 – 12/29/09)

  • Adam from the Podgecast.
  • I miss Art.
  • I could listen to it every day if it were new every day. More. Give me more.
  • local area refrences
  • I’d like more in depth discussion of the topics. All the hosts agree alot, and since there’s no one to argue with there not alot of depth to some of the discussions. I think someone playing devil’s advocate, or introducing a host who has different opinions then those already represented on the show would help.
  • n/a
  • Rob hasn’t put out a compilation of all of Mike’s recorded sighs yet.
  • Juvenile behavior, opening banter.
  • The ritualistic reading of the MEtagames bulliten, totally useless as I’m three states away.
  • swearing, esp when it gets over-the-top. other podcasts I can watch happily with my wife, but this one I would often feel embarrassed about the language / topics of discussion.
  • Any possible movie or book spoilers.
  • Some of the opinions held by certain hosts are pretty different from my own, which can be either entertaining or annoying depending on how stridently they phrase it. And, frankly, claiming that when you say “gay” you don’t really mean it that way so it’s not an insult is a position that anyone over 16 should be able to realize is completely full of holes; they don’t do it much, but it stands out and makes them come across as ignorant.
  • The weekly recap of television viewing habits. How sad. Read a book. One without pictures. Dweebs.
  • Interviews.
  • Boring moments.
  • that it only comes out once a week ;)
  • A couple memes are used a bit too often such as muting hosts and talk of “editing that out” revenge.
  • Not enough Rob being an ass to the other hosts.
  • Profanity

Other Interesting Results

(From 8/26/08 – 12/29/09)
Out of the 31 people who have taken the test, a whole two have been female!
58% are Single!
1 person speaks French!
29% listen to the episode more then once! (Seriously? What the fuck? I don’t even listen more then once!)
51% listen live from the site! (May be bias as that’s where the survey link is)
According to our Listener/Viewer Satisfaction section, our best area is the “Placement of ads or sponsorships in podcast” and our worst is the “Content”. High praise indeed!

“Hey, these guys don’t talk about much but their ad placement is FANTASTIC!”
