    Episode 117: Carl Niblaeus and Death in Space

    Episode 117: Carl Niblaeus and Death in Space

    Sorry for the late episode, we had a technical glitch: Jason was on spring break.
    Carl Niblaeus is a Stockholm-based tabletop RPG designer, one of two behind the gritty sci-fi RPG Death in Space and part of the creative coven Stockholm Kartell. With a PhD in astroparticle physics focusing on dark matter, he has a special interest in the cosmos and its inner workings. Today he spends his days working in data science, on evenings and weekends he takes the chances he can to escape to cold dark space and strange universes beyond our own. He is mostly an omnivore when it comes to RPGs, exploring all kinds of experiences the hobby can offer, but shies away from high page counts and large rulesets.
