BS! Memberships: Spooky Outhouse Productions and RPG Podcasts.com
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.
The Bear Swarm! Spring Tour ends with a Q&A about WhiteChapel.
