In this episode, the heroes get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected, selected, and all kinds of groovy things. Riley learns to appreciate magical baking, Henry makes friends with both the townsfolk and Gorshkov, and Mister Cat takes a stab at offering someone a demonically delicious retirement package.
This past May, at the 2025 Wagoncon gaming convention, we had a chance to record a chat with Matthew Balent about his history in the game hobby and industry, including a deep dive into the history of Valley of the Pharaohs. Thanks again for your time and the awesome game, Matt, we look forward to chatting with you again!
Today we are joined by both Kevin Siembieda and Sean Owen Roberson of Palladium Books, to talk about the awesome news of the upcoming crowd-funded restoration and remastering of Palladium’s “lost” video game: Rifts Promise of Power! Kevin and Sean share boat loads of details on this new undertaking, and we’re all ridiculously excited by the prospect of finally getting to play this game.
Welcome to the third exciting episode of the Grand Saga of His Royal Greatness, Mister Cat. And minions – or friends, if you will. There’s also a dog. The vehicle is loud and Riley should not be allowed to drive again. There’s some more stuff that happens, but behold, and bask in the glory of the Cat! Now bring tribute, like a good vassal.
Our new RIFTS actual play series continues! Our excellent friend and guest GM Kyle from the Bastard Quest podcast returns for another session. In this episode, Troy learns a lesson in peeking where he doesn’t belong– oh who am I kidding, of course he doesn’t learn anything. And an unlikely hero gets revenge for slights no one is sure actually even happened. All in a day’s work for the Cincinnati Four!
Our retrospective series continues! Kevin Siembieda joins us on the mics once again, to tell us stories of the creation and inspirations behind Nightbane and Dead Reign – and also a little on Systems Failure as an unexpected bonus!
Our Fallout 2d20 campaign continues, this time with special guest appearances from Boo-Boo and Tasty Treat!
Huzzah, we’re back! It’s been a while (“It’s been a whiiiile…”) since we put something out on this podcast feed, but after dusting off the gaming table and kicking back some spirits, we are back with the first episode of a new extended Actual Play RPG campaign, using the Fallout 2d20 tabletop RPG. This campaign is entitled “Uranium Moonpie” and takes place along the Gulf Coast of the USA, 200-and-then-some years after the bombs fell. Long-term plans are to take the story to our own creative version of the Southeast, and specifically NPC’s ol’ stompin’ grounds of Mobile, AL.
In this episode, we meet our four main characters, kicking off the story with a dangerous flight through the crumbling outskirts of the war-torn city of Big Luxe, Mississippi…
We are super duper mega ultra dragon kick excited to finally release the first session of something that’s been in the cooker for almost a year now: our brand new actual play campaign of Rifts! We are joined by special guest Game Master Kyle, from the Bastard Quest podcast. There’s a lot we could say here, but for this inaugural episode, I think we’ll keep things spoiler-free here (for now). Give it a listen, then drop by our Discord and let us know what you think!
Today we give our new recurring host Buckley an official welcome and introduction episode. Buckley’s been a friend of the Puppies for years, and happens to be a long time Palladium fan as well. We’re heartbroken for Matthew to have to step down, but we’re all increasingly familiar with how Life can be a hurdle to itself sometimes. Welcome Buckley, and good luck Matthew!
