An actual play podcast in which old friends get together to tell strange stories. Dice are involved.
In season one, The Old Bones, we follow an obsessive technophile and her crew of alien misfits--a bodyguard with a checkered past; a feline warrior and reluctant heretic; a disgraced lawyer bound to a mysterious mech; and a financial instrument with a mind of her own--as they explore the universe in search of purpose and profit, aboard an ancient starship with secrets of its own.

[Gallows Hill 02] Items Left by a Previous Tenant
Come buy our orchard fruits,
Come buy, come buy:
Apples and quinces,
Lemons and oranges,
Plump unpeck’d cherries,
Melons and raspberries,
Bloom-down-cheek’d peaches,
Swart-headed mulberries,
Wild free-born cranberries,
Crab-apples, dewberries,
Pine-apples, blackberries,
Apricots, strawberries;—
All ripe together
In summer weather,—
Morns that pass by,
Fair eves that fly

[Gallows Hill 05] Forgive Us Our Tresspasses
There is only one inevitability in role-playing games, and it is that you will, eventually, have to grapple.
(Warning: this episode contains explicit cat-on-frankenstein first base action)

Customer Reviews
Love it.
You can tell they everyone is having a good time and that’s what I love to hear when listening to podcasts. I love being a fly on the wall and just knowing that this would be the same with or without recording. Keep it up. Love it.
Pretty Neat!
Fun to see different systems being used! Keep up the good work!
-Another Path
Imagination Gone Wild
What a crazy fun group of people this is. I don't quite know how to describe it, maybe if you crossed the Hitchiker's Guide with Guardians of the Galaxy with Futurama with Welcome to Night Vale, you might come up with something like this. The characters are all crazy unique, there's as much crunchy story as there is surprisingly satisfying action, and while some of this stuff just shouldn't work on paper, it totally does in the telling. Sometimes I forget that I'm listening to play sessions, and not a scripted series. WHEN IS THE NEXT EPISODE?!
