    Episode #141: Take a Walk on the Wild Side w/Claus Raasted- Real Time Wargaming

    Friends- this was definitely one of most interesting episodes I've ever recorded. Claus Raasted is a character in every sense of the word. He is a wonderful conversationalist, a consultant of the finest quality, and a promoter of all things games. Most recently, Claus burst onto the wargaming scene with his "Real Time Wargaming", which you have to see to believe and understand. I'm certainly a believer! Have fun with this one! 20 Sided Gamified Listeners- if you’re a fan of this show and want to support what we do, join the game at patreon.com/20SidedGamifiedPodcastLLC .

    Episode #139: Jason Carl- Game Designer, Storyteller, and Teacher of Games

    Folks- it was such an honor for Kelly and I to chat with Jason Carl. His work in the game world is prolific- too numerous to mention here. For me personally, his contributions to Vampire the Masquerade (Minds Eye Theater), D&D 3.0, and VTM 5th edition were huge, and I absolutely love his work on L.A by Night, which can be seen on Youtube. We barely scratched the surface of Jason's career, so we all collectively agreed that this would be a "part 1". I sincerely hope to have Jason on the show again. Also, I've included a couple of links below. I'm quite intrigued by the possibilities of Dungeon Master University, where people can sign up and attend classes with some of the best storytellers/dungeon masters in the world. Very cool stuff. Enough from me- please enjoy the episode! https://dndinacastle.com/ https://dndinacastle.com/pages/dungeon-masters/jason-carl 20 Sided Gamified Listeners- if you’re a fan of this show and want to support what we do, join the game at patreon.com/20SidedGamifiedPodcastLLC .

    Hey Folks! I had an absolutely good time interviewing the brains behind The University of Winchester's "Shieldwall" event! Dr. Ryan Lavelle, James Morris, and several others have put a lot of time into this wargaming event, which will showcase a history of the Viking period on the tabletop and at the lectern! Expect some games of Midgard, Chivalry and Honour, and with any luck, excellent dice rolls! Have fun listening to this episode, and regardless of where you are in the world, check out Ryan's work, and these lovely game rules to handle warfare in the Middle Ages.

    Episode #136: Where in the World is Andy Callan???? PART 1

    Folks- I have to say- this was a very funny episode that I initially titled, "Random Musings!" You may remember a previous episode where my friend Peter Dennis and I had a fantastic conversation about wargaming. We collectively had the brilliant idea of inviting Andy Callan on the show (author of Nevermind the Billhooks, and Loose Files and American Scramble, a phenomenal game published in the very first Wargames Illustrated), set up a date, invited Cory Ring to come by, and were absolutely ready to do it! Problem is- I forgot to invite him!!!! Thus, the three of us got on Zoom and realized Andy wasn't free. So, if it sounds like Peter, Cory and I were riffing at the VERY LAST MINUTE, it's because we were! I'm still putting the episode out, regardless of how ramshackle it sounds. Please enjoy, and check out the NEXT EPISODE where I rectify my mistake! 20 Sided Gamified Listeners- if you’re a fan of this show and want to support what we do, join the game at patreon.com/20SidedGamifiedPodcastLLC .
