A Boy and His Podcast (E234)

Keep off the Borderlands

This episode is primarily a bit of housekeeping, a bunch of stuff that should have been mentioned in the last episode, some end-of-year gaming and the announcement that I will be taking over the hosting of Movie Monday, a feature previously hosted by Jason Connerley over on Nerd’s RPG Variety Cast.

Movie Monday is a feature in which we choose a movie for listeners to watch each month and send in their thoughts. Those messages are then compiled and shared in an episode that goes out on the last Monday of each month.

This month’s movie is Terry Gilliam’s Time Bandits (1981). Please see the various methods of contacting the show below.

I respond to a message from Michael of Mirke the Meek before looking at another bunch of RPG books I picked up this year including Leo Hunt’s Vaults of Vaarn Deluxe Edition, Kobayashi’s Black Sword Hack - Ultimate Chaos Edition, Laurie O’Connel’s Hieronymus: Garden of Earthly Delights Edition, and Brian Yaksha’s Throne of Avarice for Best Left Buried.

I round things off by talking about a couple of sessions of Castaway by Monolith Games and Stockholm Kartell’s Mörk Borg.

Honourable mentions: Goblin’s Henchman, Cairn 2E by Yochai Gal, Between Two Cairns, Rich Fraser of Cockatrice Nuggets, The Weekly Scroll, A Boy and His Dog Dir. L.Q. Jones, David Black’s The Black Hack, Free League’s Dragonbane, Barney Dicker of Loco Ludus, and Scott Dorward.
