I was joined by Jason Connerly, the host of the Nerd's RPG Variety Podcast, which I have been regular listener of since it began in 2019. Recently Jason has made some changes to the format, and we'll be talking about that, as well as the history and legacy of the show.

Wasteland Degenerates is a gas-guzzling, high octane post-apocalyptic RPG about miserable, radiated scum struggling to survive in tomorrow’s unforgiving carcass!

Enter Wasteland Degenerates: Jumper Cable Edition, a Cy_Borg variant where you play the worthless dregs of post-apocalyptic society going out and finding the supplies that make the world just that much more comfortable for the fortunate few who get to live in safe enclaves. You'll take on the role of road warriors, hellfire preachers, survivalists, scavengers, and former soldiers scouring the wasteland for treasures of the old world that will keep you alive just one more day.

The world before the fall of Wasteland Degenerates is familiar enough to use reference points from Mad Max vehicles to The Last of Us-style walled cities, but also far enough into the future to feature advanced technology, such as androids and reality-altering devices. Of course, you can (and should!) have a souped-up hot rod to ride the wastes in style; vehicles are an essential part of the game, and occupy half of the character sheet!

I was joined by Zoe Franznick who is kickstarting a new magic item deck called Marginal Worlds along with co-creator Mac Boyle, both bringing their expertise in Medieval Studies to bear on the project. I think it's a good fit for games like Knave, OSE, Cairn, and Dolmenwood!

Marginal Worlds is a magic Item Deck is a deck of 50 easy-to-play magic items pulled directly from medieval manuscripts that you can play in any TTRPG. The deck features 50 playable, hand-illustrated magic items and a Game Master’s Guide to match. Each item is a real-life artifact or magic item found in a medieval manuscript. Plus, Marginal Worlds magic items are D&D 5e-compatible AND system-agnostic - you can use the deck in any TTRPG system, no fuss!

The Deck and Guide are available in PDF and physical print copies, and includes:

- 50 system-agnostic magic items with easy-to-play descriptions
- Quick-play icons for features such as cursed items, sentience, or high-level play
- Excerpts featuring each item in its original medieval manuscript
