NEW EPISODE: ADORNED WITH CURSES (SPINDLENOIR) FEAT. SASHA RENEAU

Sasha is the creator of Spindlewheel, an interpretive tarot-like storytelling game where you weave together a story from card to card (and one of my favorite games of the past decade!). To wrap up our impromptu Spindlewheel trilogy on the show, we sat down with the special Spindlenoir deck to tell the story of a big-city dreamer cursed with deadly ambition in Adorned With Curses by Avalyn Ramsay.

New Episode:
THE FALLEN (MAGIC: THE GATHERING HACK) FEAT. VERA DREW

Vera Drew is a director, writer, editor, and actor, who won the 2024 Gotham Award for Breakthrough Director for her debut feature film The People’s Joker, an unauthorized, autobiographical transgender coming of age story filtered through the language of Batman comics. (If you can’t imagine why that sentence has me screaming, you don’t know me very well.)

Because Vera is a huge Magic: The Gathering Commander fan, we played a game of The Fallen using one of her favorite Commander decks (including some fan-made cards!) to tell the story of a paladin, their god, and the long road that follows their fall from grace.

New Episode:
PROJECT ECCO FEAT. CALDWELL TANNER

Caldwell is an illustrator, storyboard artist, writer, director, producer, and voice actor. You know him from Not Another D&D Podcast, as one of the creators of Drawfee, and from his new game, Drawnsters, a DIY card game battle video game currently on Kickstarter.

We wanted something weird, and inventive, and funny, and surreal, and so Project ECCO by Elliot Davis felt like an absolutely perfect fit. So I cracked out my calendar and we broke down a story of a time agent chasing a temporal anomoly across time and space (causing untold havoc along the way).

NEW EPISODE: DON'T KILL A BIRD WITH A BASEBALL
Feat. Tom Harrison (Anime Sickos)

Tom Harrison is one of the brain geniuses behind Anime Sickos, my actual favorite podcast in the world. The show is a dissection of the four pillars of modern misery (Anime, Gaming, Posting, and Jobs), and is honestly everything you could possibly want in a podcast. It’s funny, insightful, occasionally righteously angry, and genuinely makes me want to make podcasts.

We sat down to play Don’t Kill a Bird With a Baseball, an RPG where Randys Johnson from across the multiverse gather to stop our world’s Randy Johnson from killing a bird with a baseball.

This week on Party of One:
In This World with Ellen Adair

Ellen is an actor, writer, visual artist, baseball analyst, and lifelong fan of the Philadelphia Phillies (whom I am watching on TV right now... it's good to be back). You can catch them right now in The Housemaid, as a regular contributor to MLB Network's "Off Base," on a number of award-winning festival features, and on their baseball media podcast Take Me In To Ballgame.

We talk sports, art, community, and catharsis as we imagine worlds of what could be in a game of In This World by Ben Robbins.

Lachlan is an actor who you can see right now in Y2K, Chucky, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and more. We knew we wanted to explore some weird, messy horror, so I couldn't think of a better game than 1978: The Night They Came Home by World Champ Game Co.

It's Halloween night. What better time for a sentient haunted house to claim its next victim...

You’ll dig this episode if you like: Halloween, haunted house thrillers, creepy killers, retro horror vibes

NEW EPISODE - HARDCORE ECOLOGIST WITH EMILY HARTFORD

Emily is one of the creators of Metra: A Climate Revolution With Songs, an original musical fiction podcast about how we change the world. The podcast weaves ancient myth, transformative magic, and memorable music to tell the story of a dangerous climate future, and the fight for the world we deserve.

In that same vein, we sat down to play Hardcore Ecologist, a game of wandering the weird Wastes, Wilderness and Ruins of the future world, making an inventory of the new life that has developed here in the centuries after a massive climate change cataclysm, surveying for specimens.

You’ll dig this episode if you like: Weird landscapes, even weirder creatures, imagining a world that survives, exploring an unrecognizable Earth and making note of what survives

NEW EPISODE: TIME TO DROP WITH EMMA SHANNON

Emma is host of Unnatural Selection on the Moonshot Podcast Network, about film adaptations of books, the weird choices Hollywood makes, and what actually constitutes a “good” adaptation. He's also a cast member on Interstitial Infinity (an Actual Play podcast about troubled pop culture teens on the Infinity Train) and Dead Teen House Party, a rewatch podcast of MTV's Scream series.

We geared up, gathered our crew, and pulled the job of the century in fellow Moonshot podcast bestie Marn Lastname's Time to Drop, a time loop heist game about a group of thieves forced to pull off the same job again... and again... and again... and again... and again... and again...

NEW EPISODE: THE CRYPTID SHOW WITH MIKE SCHUBERT

Mike is a longtime podcaster, and host of the show The Newest Olympian, which seeks to answer the question, “Has society been sleeping on the Percy Jackson series?”. His new show, Professional Talkers, is a comedic advice podcast all about navigating life’s awkward conversations with Sequoia Simone.

We wanted to talk about working in audio, and coming to the artform of podcasting, and so we sat down for a delightful game of The Cryptid Show, a two-player conversational RPG about a call-in radio show host answering a caller’s questions about their recent supernatural experience. It was a DELIGHT.

NEW EPISODE: TAPESTRY WITH KAITLIN BRUDER

Kaitlin is one of the producers behind Thin Places Radio, an award-winning short-form fiction podcast in the shape of a radio show from nowhere, in which the mysterious Host comes responds to real voicemails from actual callers with supernaturally sentimental anecdotes and advice. She’s also a streamer, actual play performer, artist, and designer–a fellow wearer of many creative hats.

We sat down for a session of Kaitlin’s favorite game, Tapestry, an interpretive card-based RPG of weaving character’s stories together, and coming to witness the tanged, densely interconnected threads and patterns that result.

You'll dig this episode if you like: Tales From the Loop, The Venture Bros, The Tick, messy sibling relationships, superhero heartbreak

NEW EPISODE: HUNT(ER/ED) WITH CATE OSBORN

Cate is an author, podcaster, ADHD educator & advocate, kinkster and Shakespeare nerd. She hosts Sorry I Missed This, an everything guide to ADHD and relationships, and her new book, The ADHD Field Guide For Adults, drops in March. She’s also running vampire games at literal Castle Dracula as one of the GMs of Danube of the Damned, which is one of the coolest sentences I’ve ever gotten to write.

We got deep in the weeds on backyard concerts, monsters, lost identities, and tense showdowns between hunter and hunted in HUNTER(ER/ED) by Dillin Apelyan and Meghan Cross.

She’s currently a producer and guest player on the national tour of The Twenty Sided Tavern, and a player in the upcoming genre-bending AP Tales From Woodcreek, as well as the DM (Doggy Master) on the 2nd annual Puppy Roll, raising money for Petco Love.

We sat down to play one of Anajli’s favorite games of all time (and mine as well), the incredibly influential For the Queen. The Queen has a difficult journey ahead. She has chosen her most loyal subjects. But can they be trusted? And at the end of the day… can the Queen?
