September Is International Podcast Month (IPM)! IPM is a collaborative event where podcasters come together to create unique episodes that are released throughout the month of September on the IPM RSS feed. This month-long event celebrates the podcasting community! It’s a wonderful opportunity for podcasters to cross-promote, celebrate each other, and share the love of podcasting with the world. We’re bringing creators together to generate incredible content this September.
With a focus on marginalized creators, we're building communities, sharing listeners, and boosting each other's voices. As in past years, IPM features a collaboration of many diverse and inclusive podcasting folks on Audio Fiction/Audio Drama Minisodes, Creator Conversation Episodes, Coming Soon Features, Non-Fiction Episodes, RPG Actual-Play One-Shots, and a month-long blog. The Non-Fiction and Audio Fiction episodes are special minisodes made by their creators and casts, while the RPG Actual-Play One-Shots are made up of a variety of creators across the podcasting medium who have gotten together just for their one episode (though whether or not they decide to continue their campaigns is up to them!).

RPG: Rooted in Trophy - Return to Welcome, A Playtest
Three strangers find themselves going to the remote town of Welcome for a variety of reasons, but who’s to say the town didn’t somehow call them there? A folk-horror scenario set in modern times and written for Trophy Dark rules, this episode was a playtest of a Designed for Trophy incursion written by Madelancholy. The character introduction was highlighted, as well as the end of Ring 2, continuing through remaining Rings 3, 4, and 5.

About
Trophy is a collection of collaborative storytelling games about doomed and desperate treasure-hunters entering a haunted forest that doesn’t want them there. The games explore the physical, mental, and emotional descent of the treasure-hunters as they move deeper and deeper into the forest, encountering ancient ruins, terrible monstrosities, and the greatest horror of all: themselves.
