It is finished.

This is the episode where we hear from a couple of recent callers and then I tell you that this is the last show.

If you’ve been here since the beginning, thank you. You’ve heard me say I’m done quite a few times over the years. Never say never, isn’t that what they say? Who knows what tomorrow brings?

If you’ve just joined us, well, welcome … and farewell. There’s a back catalogue if you want to share the journey. Just know that it does have a destination.

Thanks for listening and… well, I’ll still be around.

Game on!

Exploring the daunting transition from forever-GM to player. Preparing to join Pat's open-world Star Trek campaign, Imminent Destinies, Che discusses how to apply Jamison's Otherworld-immersion and Justin Alexander's clear "action and intent" loop directly from the player's seat.

The episode dives into the gritty, espionage-heavy Rigel Basin setting and navigates a trilemma of character concepts ahead of 'Session Minus One'. Discover the framework for banishing rules-talk, leaning into maximum player agency, and becoming a true Sojourner in a living Otherworld.

Why do we spend hours prepping and playing our games, only to walk away feeling like we've just consumed another piece of disposable entertainment?

What if the modern tabletop obsession with "managing the fiction" is actually the very thing breaking the spell of the Otherworld?

And how do we stop trying to construct a narrative, and finally step into a shared, living myth?

I believe we are a people starved of story, wandering a paved-over world looking for a genuine connection.

In this episode, we are going to explore the deep, often unspoken reasons why we gather to play, and seek an answer to those questions.
