There was a time when I listened to podcasts, particularly RPG podcasts, religiously. They accompanied me during my home improvement projects, on my walks to work, on long road trips, and even at the gym.
An Even Scarier Solstice is the follow up to A Very Scary Solistice, a parody holiday album featuring songs inspired by equal parts Christmas carols and H.P. Lovecraft.
Battlestar Galactica: The Plan/Razor is a 19-track album including music from two of BSG’s standalone movies. Razor looks at Admiral Adama’s early days as a fighter pilot named Husker, as well as the dark path that led to the Battlestar Pegasus after escaping the carnage of the Cylon sneak attack.
I’m on a quest for new RPG Podcasts. It’s been a while since I listened to them extensively — you can blame Brandon Sanderson’s The Way of Kings audiobook for that — but I’ve got the itch again. Oh … and I have a Knights of the Dinner Table “Summon Web Scryer” column that needs to be written…
I have a number of old standbys still in my podcast queue, including the Accidental Survivors, All Games Considered, Atomic Array, The Dungeons & Dragons Podcast, Fear the Boot, Flagons & Dragons, Order 66, RPG Circus, Smiling Jack’s Bar & Grill, and Yog-Sothoth Podcast.
It’s a good mix, but I find I’m under-represented in a few categories, notably Pathfinder, game theory, and game mastery.
Winter is here. The nights have grown long, and while they’re broken by the beauty of annual Christmas and holiday light displayers, they merely hide a daker evil.

It’s the Winter Solstice, and what better way to celebrate than with a rousing chorus of (and a music video for) “The Carol of the Old Ones”? While the stars may not be right this year we all know it’s just a matter of time. This song’s taken from A Very Scary Solstice, the most … Read more
Three weeks of rainy days put a major crimp in my podcast-listening schedule in May as I was forcd to drive (rather than walk) to work. It’s the difference between a 2 minute commute and a 15 minute one … as well as no podcasts or three podcasts a week. With the sun finally shining … Read more
It’s been a while since I’ve talked about the podcasts I listen to, partly because for much of the late summer and early fall I really wasn’t listening to many of them (save the Order 66 podcast, which I’ve listened to slavishly since realizing my Star wars campaign was really going to happen). That’s changed … Read more
As more geeks begin contemplating middle age, it seems more of us are also thinking of doing something about our expanding waistlines. The hosts of the GutCheckCast are looking to do exactly that. In episode #0, Doug Rapson (Geek Acres) and Zach Ricks (Geek Survival Guide) layout their goals for this project: each wants to … Read more
DrupalCon Boston is looming large, but before I get there I decided to go visit my sister in New Hampshire. It’s a long trip — seven hours or so from Easton, longer with the family in tow — so I had plenty of time to get caught up on my podcasts. First up with Pulp … Read more
