    Episode 34 - Headtotable-verse

    Hello and welcome to the final episode of Head to Table Season One! Like all the best series, we’ve gone and assembled a retrospective ‘best of’ episode… But wait! It’s not what you think! We actually got meta as hell and designed a game employing mechanics from all of our previous 33 games. As you might expect, chaos ensues. Join us to hear Tom venture into the Head-to-table-verse and try to bring Thom back out with him! Head to Table is Thom Rawson and Tom Snowden.

    Episode 33 - Barking Bad

    This week we roll over and fetch you a brand new, canine themed episode of Head to Table! Join the two T(h)oms as they discuss what it truly means to be a ‘Good Boy’ and design an RPG of doggy hijinks! Will we prove to be pure pedigrees of game design or mangy mongrels of mucking about? Join us to find out if the stats of floofiness and cheekiness can overcome the overzealous animal pound or if we end up making another dog’s dinner! Head to Table is Thom Rawson and Tom Snowden.

    Episode 31 - Co-op Cops

    This week the Thom team are joined by a special guest! The hilarious and creative Joel Ruiz of the wonderful Critical Bits Podcast. Check them out at @CriticalBitCast or at criticalbitcast.libsyn.com. Together with Joel, we design a buddy cop RPG of jolly copper-co-operation. In this game mismatched officers must learn to overcome their differences and work together in the name of justice; learn to bust wide open your hearts in order to bust wide open the case! Join us to find out if Nails and Haddock can solve a very sticky crime and save Snacktopolis from a healthier future! Head to Table is Thom Rawson and Tom Snowden.

    Episode 30 - Vampire the Mask Party

    This week the Thom Team attend the party of the century and try to make it suck a little more. Take on the role of a fashionable vampire, sate the nobility’s restless curiosity, and play guess who with an anachronistic guest list to die for. Will you manage to avoid the bitter ire of Food Standards Inspector Van Helsing, or will you be fooled by his countless disguises? Join us for a rapidly derailed tale of Godzilla fighting with Pokémon and of failing to identify Alan Rickman. Head to Table is Thom Rawson and Tom Snowden.

    Episode 29 - Internal Affairs

    I’m afraid it’s time to take a look inside yourself and ask the big questions. Questions like “What would happen if I became really, really small and cast a fireball inside someone’s intestines?” and “Are lymphocytes really the good guys?”. That’s right! This week the Thom team take you on a Fantastic Voyage to the Inner Space of TTRPG design! Join us as we shrink down, enter the bloodstream, and attempt to cure what ails you!

    Episode 28 - Die Ain't Afraid of No Ghost

    This week the Tom Team demonstrate that they do, indeed, have a Dickens and design a ghostly game of redemption and restitution. Take on the role of a sanctimonious spectre to produce and direct a series of complicated and flawed visions of past, present and future. Try to crack the mean-spirited heart of your hauntee through arguments of compassion, fear and reason, and show them that in the end, ‘hey, this ain’t you, bud’! Join us for a tale of rising room temperatures, pickled herrings, and 18th century powdered wigs! Head to Table is Thom Rawson and Tom Snowden.

    Episode 27 - d10tion

    Sit up straight! No chewing gum in class! Is that a pentagonal trapezohedron!? You’d better report to detention!! This week the two T(h)oms head back to school and design a game about being in a whole heap of trouble! Fingered for a crime you didn’t commit, its time to hit the playground and figure out whodunit in a noir-ish game of school investigation. Join us for a C- crime caper of cliques and classrooms!
