I'm Richard Pullman, and I want to talk to you about your game. Whether you're a total amateur hobbyist who's never released a product or a professional making the big bucks I want know what game design means to you. Nothing is more interesting to me.
One of the best things about the podcast? I've been helping designers break through challenges in live time while discussing! It keeps happening! Helping creators is my joy.

Richard Pullman and the mysterious Notepadanon sit down for a riveting chat about Notepad's various projects. As it turns out, he's been a very busy boy! We touch on:
GURPS vs. laser-focused games
Trolling and meme games vs. sensitive but educational games
Converting non-tabletop experiences into tabletop games
"Baseline" settings and the assumption of GM modification
And plenty more. Make sure you visit his site! -
Episode 011 - TheHummel
Best friends Richard Pullman and ThaHummel (if that is his real name) discuss his RPG, metacurrency, and how to categorize RPGs in a way that's useful.
Showtime has some really cool ideas so I hope you listen carefully! -
Episode 044 - Everett (Uplifts: Heirs to the Future)
The shutdown won't stop us from creating games, and that means this podcast must go on!
Richard Pullman and Everett Smith sit down to discuss his sci-fi RPG featuring three different planets to explore, each with their own tone, themes, choices, and lore. -
Episode 010 - MagicJuggler (WarStack)
Wow, another war game! Richard Pullman chats with MagicJuggler, a staple /gdg/ character who has one of the most interesting and exciting core ideas I've seen yet for a tabletop wargame. He has also mastered the art of finding technical issues with game rules, so he's a valuable commodity in the land of indie devs.
Enjoy the episode! -
Episode 009 - Oswald (Mines, Claws & Princesses - D&D Module)
Lovely! Best friend Richard Pullman talks game design with Oswald and they get neck deep into the psychology of play, and the challenges of creating an awesome RPG campaign. Turns out it's pretty sophisticated stuff!
After this conversation, Oswald definitely got on the list of designers I like to listen to for problem solving. He may be an oldschool D&D Dungeon Master, but his approach to design feels invigorating.

White supremacy as a setting
Gender swapping elves
Rules Bullies VS. Rules Lawyers
