BDaB #033: The Worsts

Happy Fall, and welcome to another episode of Bikers, Dice, and Bars! This episode kicks off what I’m calling “Season 3” with a new, more open approach to our format. Many times before, when recording prior episodes, we kept getting hit with the feeling that we didn’t have enough time to go over each topic in the allotted time slots of our base format. In this new season, we’re aiming to try and fix that by taking a slightly more free-form approach to picking our topics, giving us more room to really get into them and enjoy some conversational momentum.

BDaB Plays: Tales From the Loop, Part 1 – “Speaky Squeaky”

We’re finally proud to present to you the first extended play session of our brand new Tales from the Loop campaign! In this ongoing adventure, we will be playing through the brand spanking new Out of Time adventure series, which was released as an early bonus to the backers of Free League’s recent Kickstarter for the game’s follow-up campaign, Things from the Flood. Inspired by the artwork of Simon Stålenhag, the works of Steven King, and more than a little Stranger Things throw into the mix, Tales from the Loop takes us to a 1980s that never was, filled with weird robots, mysterious plots, and the bizarre side effects of living in a town with a state of the art particle accelerator. So join us for an advance look into the new book, and stick around for the sometimes-deep but often-hilarious adventures in our own techno-magical version of Klamath Falls Oregon, 1986.
