The Gameable Podcast

Love the show, but wish older eps where on the apple podcast sevice

Gameable Saturday Morning is a great discussion show about breaking down a cartoon franchise to it's most basic and vital components, and reassembling them in the form of an RPG. Full of unique insights on whatever cartoon is at hand, you're bound to come away with a better understanding, and new appreciation for, the source material. Listen to this show, then go apply what you've learned to your games! They'll be better games for it

In many ways, I have been looking for this podcast all my life. If you have agonized about who you would be in every movie you watch, or what happens not-on-the-screen, you have too. A combination of playfulness and deeply intelligent commentary is consistent throughout the show, from both of the hosts. Katrina is enthralling with her insights drawing upon a wide knowledge of music, animation, and the film industry; her thoughtful and wise commentary on films and gaming; and (by her own account) “a voice that is friggin’ adorable.” She is so compelling, in fact, that initially it was unclear to me what exactly Chris was contributing to the partnership, but then I began to marvel at his regularly brilliant ability to reverse-engineer a cosmology and setting from what is established in the canon; his keen insights into the social and ideological implications of a story; and his abundantly fruitful ideas to spin a single scenario into multiple different styles of campaign.

I love this series. They've got the perfect mix of critique styles flavored with a hearty dose of humor. The Saturday morning cartoons have been a little dry as material goes, but Kris and Katrina don't need much to make a topic entertaining and insightful. Keep it up y'all!
