New York Times bestselling author Antony Johnston, spoke to me about falling backwards into video game writing, meeting Atomic Blonde's Charlize Theron, and his new interactive whodunit Can You Solve the Murder? Antony Johnston is the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of over fifty books, graphic novels, and comic series, including the popular Dog Sitter Detective murder mysteries. He adapted his graphic novel, The Coldest City, into the multi-million-dollar blockbuster movie Atomic Blonde, which he also co-produced.. His latest novel, Can You Solve the Murder? (Penguin Books; On Sale: 7/1), is described as “An interactive whodunit where you choose which suspects to question, which leads to follow, and ultimately, who to accuse.” Kirkus Reviews wrote of the book, “A Choose Your Own Adventure–style novel for willing and agile grownups….as interactive as readers who don't play video games are likely to find.­” Antony is also a celebrated video games writer, and is credited with many franchise-defining titles, and a former vice chair of the Crime Writers' Association.

The Prayers of the People are a staple in the Episcopalian service, but they're also reminiscent of a “Choose Your Own Adventure” book, with forms and collects abounding. We're here to discuss the many forms that intercessory prayer can take and why it matters to pray in unison for our world and for each other. We break down the structure of the prayers, discuss why we pray for government officials, share our personal favorite prayers, and entertain a riveting sidebar discussion on “intinction”. Please excuse Annie's audio this episode, it was a little wonky for some reason!

I can't think of a better way to close out BOOKSPO Season 3 than with a visit with novelist and literary podcast queen, Bianca Marais, whose new novel, A MOST PUZZLING MURDER, is a book she wrote to prove that it was possible to write a locked room mystery by the seat of one's pants. Possible, which isn't to say that it was EASY, and Marais made her task even more complicated by packing her novel with puzzles and riddles, and even a CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE element! Pickle Me This is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In our conversation, Marais talks about wanting to bring her readers deep into the narrative, and have them scribbling in the margins to crack the code. We talk about how writing a novel is like a puzzle anyway, and how she keeps breaking out of the confines of genre and marketing to write a different kind of book every time. And it's true that A MOST PUZZLING MURDER is something different altogether (complete with raccoons!)—but that those beloved CHOOSE YOUR ADVENTURE novels from our childhood were an inspiration for sure! How do you solve a murder that hasn't happened yet?Destiny Whip is a former child prodigy, world-renowned enigmatologist and very, very alone. A life filled with loss has made her a recluse, an existence she's content to endure until a letter arrives inviting her to interview for the position of Scruffmore family historian. Not only does an internet search for the name yield almost nothing, it's a role she never applied to in the first place!After she decodes the invitation's hidden message with ease, the promise of her family secrets being revealed is too powerful a draw for the orphaned Destiny, who soon finds herself on Eerie Island. It's a place whose inhabitants are almost as inhospitable as the tempestuous weather. The Scruffmores themselves turn out to be not much better, a snarled mess of secrets and motives connected by their mistrust for one another.Their newly arrived guest proves to be just as much an enigma to them as they are to her. While Destiny slowly works to unravel the mysteries hidden throughout the ominous castle, she struggles to interpret disturbing nightly visions of what is to come. In the midst of cryptic ciphers, hidden passages, and the family's magical heritage and line of succession, Destiny is certain of two things: one of the Scruffmores is going to die and she's running out of time to stop it.Interspersed with riddles and puzzles that both Destiny and the reader must solve, A Most Puzzling Murder is a one-of-a-kind mystery that will leave you guessing and gasping until the very last page!Bianca Marais is the author of the bestselling The Witches of Moonshyne Manor,as well as the beloved Hum If You Don't Know the Words and If You Want to Make God Laugh, and the Audible Original, The Prynne Viper. Her latest novel, A Most Puzzling Murder, was released on the 10th of June 2025 She taught at the University of Toronto's School of Continuing Studies where she was awarded an Excellence in Teaching Award for Creative Writing.She is the co-host of the popular podcast, The S**t No One Tells You About Writing,which is aimed at helping emerging writers become published.

Episode #376 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth are flipping the script with a unique musical experiment that takes us through some iconic and obscure soundtracks. From epic JRPGs and nostalgic Nintendo favorites to unexpected indie gems and adrenaline-pumping action scores, this episode is all about connection and chaos.

They had options, but some of those options no longer exist. And now President Trump says their airspace isn't even their own. So what's Iran going to do now? Keep enriching uranium?

In this episode, Robert draws a striking comparison between today's market conditions and a moment in history most investors have forgotten but shouldn't. He explores why stocks can soar even when the world feels like it's unraveling, and what this means for those navigating volatility, protests, geopolitical risk, and the rise of AI. From the role of liquidity cycles to retail psychology, he explains what really drives markets and what investors should watch for in the second half of the decade. Plus, he answers a listener question on the dollar, deficits, and whether the U.S. is headed for a true reckoning.

Come join us at the game table and find some new and amazing games.   Sponsorship Game Toppers  SaltCON   Intro of Meeple Nation The World's Most Okayest Podcast Web Page Links to Episodes SaltPOD: A SaltCON Podcast Bios Email us at MeepleNation@gmail.com Patreon Instagram @meeplenation Facebook Meeple Nation Facebook Group Meeple Nation Off Air X Meeple Nation Discord Meeple Nation Become a Chanameeple   Meeple Nation Gaming Highlights (Highlight-Thirty) Nathan Welcome to the Moon Douglas Clans of Caledonia From the Moon Andy Return to Dark Tower Zombicide White Death Narrative Choice and Paragraph Games. The Narrative Choice or Paragraph Games mechanic puts a strong emphasis on storytelling and player agency through making decisions that directly influence the narrative's progression. Instead of relying solely on traditional game mechanics like dice rolling or resource management to drive the plot, these games present players with textual descriptions, scenarios, and choices that lead to different outcomes and further narrative branches. Think of it like a "Choose Your Own Adventure" book integrated into a board game experience. Players often read paragraphs of text that describe a situation, and then they are presented with a set of choices. Each choice directs them to a different paragraph or section, unfolding the story in a unique way based on their decisions. Here's how the mechanic typically works: Narrative Presentation: The game presents story elements through text, often in the form of cards, books, or even app-based interfaces. These descriptions set the scene, introduce characters, and present challenges. Choice Points: At key moments in the narrative, players are given distinct options on how to proceed. These choices can range from dialogue options and actions to strategic decisions that have narrative consequences. Branching Narrative: Each choice leads to a different part of the story. This might involve reading a specific paragraph number, drawing a particular card, or triggering a new event within the app. The narrative unfolds non-linearly based on the collective decisions of the players. Consequences: The choices players make often have consequences that affect the ongoing narrative. This could involve changes in character relationships, the availability of future options, the acquisition of items, or even the overall outcome of the game. Emergent Storytelling: While the core narrative is pre-written, the combination of player choices leads to a unique emergent story for each playthrough. Different groups of players, or even the same group playing again, will likely experience the narrative in a different sequence and with different outcomes.

In this week's episode, the crew dove into the wildest debate lighting up the internet: *100 average men vs. one fully grown gorilla*. From breaking down the physical odds to arguing whether strategy or environment could shift the outcome, the conversation swung between hilarious and heated. The guys also discussed the kind of "average men" being imagined—whether beer-bellied uncles or part-time gym rats could even make a dent—and what animal 100 men *could* realistically take down. Then in the second half, things got real with a topic titled **"What Men Shouldn't Ask."** Sparked by a listener's email and Riskay's infamous “What are we?” advice, the crew unpacked why certain questions—from asking about money to emotional check-ins with the homies—can backfire hard when they come from a man. They even tackled the taboo of bringing up threesomes, time-of-the-month questions, and unrealistic barber requests. And to top it all off, they wrapped up the final, action-packed chapter of their *Choose Your Own Adventure* saga in the *Invincible*-inspired universe, where one member may not have made it out alive.

In this episode, the fellas kick things off with a breakdown of “Liberation Day” (aka April 2nd), when the U.S. market took a dive, hitting 401(k)s hard—especially painful for those near retirement or living on fixed incomes. They dive into why voters keep trusting Trump with the economy despite his sketchy business history, chaotic trade moves, and policies that often favor the rich. From tax cuts to trade wars to the illusion of economic strength, they ask: is it real faith or just vibes? Then things get personal as they explore why peaceful moments with your partner sometimes get ruined by random drama, TV triggers, or unresolved beefs. Is it a woman thing? Is it intentional? And how should a man respond when the vibe gets hijacked? Later, they reminisce on the dumbest lies they believed as kids—like watermelon seeds growing in your stomach and the fear of car lights getting you arrested. Finally, they rant about new online businesses overcharging for mid products with no name recognition, wondering if it's confidence, clout-chasing, or just straight-up delusion. And to wrap it up, part 2 of their latest “Choose Your Own Adventure” brings more laughs and wild scenarios that force you to pick between equally ridiculous outcomes.

The boys embark on a classic choose your own adventure campaign where they explore an abandoned spaceship of mysterious and deadly origin. Will they make it out alive? Listen and find out.

Choose Your Own Adventure Isaiah 34:1-2, 35:10

In this eye-opening episode, we dive deep into the painful reality behind “kind” gestures that aren't kind at all. When a homemade cheesecake or a perfectly crafted cup of coffee is offered by someone who's spent years neglecting your needs, it can feel like a calculated move—a manipulation tactic meant to keep you tethered to your old wounds. Through raw storytelling and a “Choose Your Own Adventure” narrative, you'll hear firsthand how these token gestures, far from mending the past, often serve as a reminder of every invalidating moment and boundary crossed. This episode isn't just about the seemingly small acts; it's about reclaiming your power, trusting your gut, and choosing your own path toward healing. If you've ever felt that a sweet gesture was really an insult in disguise, this episode is for you. Listen in for an honest conversation about emotional abuse, the traps of covert narcissism, and the critical steps to rebuild your life on your own terms. Your journey to healing starts here. Take the next step in your healing: If you're ready to break free and reclaim your life, check out my coaching services at www.covertnarcissism.com. You deserve more than crumbs. ❤️

Chris Hensley thought starting seventh grade over again in a small town in the middle of nowhere would be tough enough. New kid, new school, extra-heavy backpack – the usual middle school drama. But when a mysterious black school bus emerges from the morning fog and a cryptic warning about the last stop sends chills down his spine, Chris realizes surviving middle school might be the least of his problems. An unexpected change of plans turns an ordinary afternoon into a desperate race against time – and something far darker than the setting sun. This spine-tingling tale will make you think twice about your next bus ride home. Perfect for fans of Goosebumps and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark comes a chilling story about what really happens after the last school bell rings.

It's impossible to have the same energy and the same type of goals year after year. Let's face it, we're going to be in a different season of our lives, and the new year isn't the time to feel bad about not having “that kind of goal”. In this episode, we discuss seasons, the different energies to match those seasons, and what it means to focus on virtues instead of quantitative goals (because we're pros on that one). Let's start the year evaluating what means the most to you, and that starts on the inside first. Listen now.

We're back to Hark as the Goosebuddies Chad, Paul, and Kevin adventure through the second (and last) of R.L. Stine's sci-fi Choose Your Own Adventure series: The Invaders of Hark. We're thrust into the city of Hark where multiple alien factions fight for control and a beautiful princess. These books are brutal with only one correct path. Will we survive? OFF TOPICS: Paul's adventures in Unreal Engine, Godot Adventure begins: 15:30 Support the show on patreon.com/goosebuds UPDATE TO PATREON: Due to changes on Patreon's side we're being forced to shift from our per creation setup (where you'd pledge tiers and pay for each episode released a month) to a monthly subscription (a flat fee tier). Our goal is to make this as least disruptive as possible. Here's the summary of new tiers. $5/month - Ghoulie Our exclusive Goosebuds Discord Early access to episodes before they go live Voting on episodes we read next! $10/month - Camper Camp Goosebuds bonus episodes every month Forever immortalized in the Book of Names at the end of each episode All the rewards from the 'Ghoulie' level (Discord, early access, and voting) As we always put out at least two regular episodes a month this shouldn't change the overall amount you were pledging, just how and when it's charged. But this is not an automatic shift. You'll need to adjust your tiers to the new levels!

We're nearing the last leg of Odysseus' journey, and he's really caught between a rock and a hard place. Between the devil and the deep blue sea. Between...well, between Scylla and Charybdis. After a dramatic turning point among the dead, Odysseus is now faced with what he says is the saddest and most pitiable horror he has ever seen on all his suffering journeys across the sea.
