Listen to the full episode here!  DMofNone is back from GenCon and over GenCon sicknesses for another edition of Your Kickstarter Sucks: Tabletop Edition (here are entries one and two). This time, DMs Rob and Matt are talking about Tabletop News, a crowd-funded video news show, that unlike our previous projects, actually delivered what it promised in a timely fashion. Our discussion gets into the show's weird production, cringe tone, hiring practices, refusal to do "journalism", and strange metrics. Was it awful? Not really. Did they do some shady stuff?

The crowds were as thick as ever, but the overall energy felt a bit more subdued this year. Still, there were plenty of solid games to discover and enjoy—even if nothing sparked a mad dash to grab the latest release. We spent much of our time connecting with publishers, hoping to gather insights and highlights to help our listeners spend wisely. And of course, Gen Con wouldn't be complete without a few surprises—Slam Throne and Battle for Hoth definitely caught our attention in the hall. Huge thanks to everyone who helped, donated, and participated in this year's annual Strike Tournament. Whether you rolled dice, cheered from the sidelines, or chipped in behind the scenes, your energy and generosity made it all possible. The success of this event isn't about the two old guys running it—it's about the incredible community that shows up year after year. We're grateful for every one of you who helped make it another memorable tournament. If you were at Gen Con, love to hear your thoughts over in our Discord channel. Learn more about your ad choices.
