Perfectionism can feel like a badge of honor, but it often hides a deeper fear of being seen as not enough. You pour time and energy into every detail, hoping it'll protect you from judgment or failure, but all it really does is keep you stuck. There's always one more thing to fix, one more reason not to hit “go.” Eventually, progress slows to a crawl, and what started as high standards turns into quiet self-sabotage. It's exhausting chasing an idea of success that never lets you rest. Claus Raasted doesn't just talk about change—he's lived it. After leading the world's biggest LARP design studio, a major career reset pushed him to rebuild from the ground up. Now a consultant and educator, he helps people cut through perfectionism and self-sabotage to unlock what actually works. He emphasizes using your strengths, not fixing every flaw, and speaks honestly about the traps of overthinking and burnout. His message is clear: success isn't about doing everything—it's about doing you better. Stay tuned! Resources: Are you looking for an overpaid rockstar consultant to help you with GETTING SHIT DONE?

But this isn't just a behind-the-scenes on a fan-made panel show. It's a deep dive into what it means to design games for performance, and the unique role that playtesting for watchability plays in that process.From crafting visually engaging challenges to navigating cast dynamics and live audience feedback, Ryan reveals how every layer of the Taskmaster LA experience was engineered not just to be fun, but to delight both players and viewers.What can digital game designers, TTRPG GMs, and interactive storytellers learn from a live-audience-first approach? Quite a lot, it turns out.We talk about:Casting as a game design toolDesigning challenges with visual hooksManaging emotional safety and creative riskWhy live audiences sharpen storytellingWhat makes a moment rewatchable, and why that mattersWhether you're building a game, producing a show, or crafting a session for your home table, this episode will give you a whole new lens for thinking about entertainment value as a design principle.Ryan's Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Egal, ob man in Pyramiden einen OSR-Dungeon erkundet, bei Cthulhu einen jahrtausendealten Fluch auf sich lädt oder ob irgendwo einfach eine Mumie aus dem Schatten springt - Viele Rollenspiel-Settings nehmen Anleihen am altertümlichen Ägypten. Wie passend also, dass wir eine der bekanntesten Ägyptologinnen der Rollenspielszene und einen der bekanntesten Archäologen mit eigenem OSR-Verlag als Expert*innen gewinnen konnten, die mit uns über dieses faszinierende Setting sprechen.

Hallo und willkommen zu einer neuen Episode des Drachentöter Podcasts.

In this episode of The Corner of Story and Game, we welcome LARP designer, writer, and educator Aaron Vanek to explore how live-action role-playing techniques can enrich traditional tabletop RPGs and narrative game design.Aaron walks us through the foundations of LARP, its philosophical pillars, and how these ideas translate into immersive storytelling experiences. From seance room horror sessions to swamp scenes complete with dry ice and frog sounds, Aaron's approach shows how a multisensory experience can elevate player engagement, emotional investment, and story resonance—whether you're designing a homebrew module or working on a commercial RPG.Topics include:

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.richardhanania.comRob joins me to talk about the last two episodes of Season 3 of The White Lotus. Overall, I found the ending mostly satisfying. But the plot holes. There were so many! Among them (spoilers below):* Tim assuming that his family would be permanently poor* Tim acting like a lost doofus unable to handle any pressure throughout the show* Belinda getting a $5 million transfer into her bank account that quickly, without anyone worrying that it would come to the attention of authorities* Rick assaulting Jim Hollinger at his house, and then returning to his resort not expecting anything to happenStill, most of the storylines wrapped up quite nicely. I like that Rick ended up giving Chelsea validation in the short time they had left together. I did not foresee Hollinger actually being Rick's father, but it made sense. We all thought Gaitok was headed towards a bad ending, but he did get the girl. This may have involved a sacrifice of his principles, but still, Mook under normal circumstances was well out of his league. If you're going to sell out, that's exactly what you do it for. I didn't expect the friendship of the three women to last, but I liked how they came together at the end. The scene I found most profound on the show was Victoria's brief speech on the nature of wealth. Modern people, particularly the rich, have this conflicted relationship with their standard of living and place in the world. After Piper told her parents that she realized she didn't want to live in a developing world monastery for a year, Victoria explained that it would be indecent for them not to make the most of their fortunate circumstances. We're lucky, it's true. Nobody in the history of the world has lived better than we have. Even the old kings and queens. The least we can do is enjoy it. If we don't, it's offensive. It's an offense to all the billions of people who can only dream that one day they could live like we do. The right has this tendency to LARP and imagine things were better in the past, while liberals know history has been miserable but are often consumed by guilt. Lately, we've seen a kind of rightoid Maoism that celebrates poverty and thinks it's good for the soul. None of this is healthy. The idea that enjoying your life is the way to honor the story of human progress is a message that is both intellectually compelling and quite moving. Victoria's wisdom was a pleasant surprise, showing that she was much different than we had been led to believe.

Simon Brind discusses concepts of Agency and Alibi in the creation of Larp and their connections to creating meaningful experiences for participants. In this talk he explores 'Agency' - the ability of an active participant in a story to make decisions that change the story in meaningful ways (and what that means for dramaturgy), 'Alibi' '- the idea that the participant experience can be designed in such a way that they can act or behave in ways that they would not normally act and 'Bleed' - the transfer of experience from participant to character or from character to participant.This talk was recorded at the Immersive Experience Network Summit in October 2024 and is supported by Arts Council England and our industry partners Illusion Design & Construct, Mance Communications, White Light, Deterministic, Immersif, d&b audiotechnik, Scene2, Little Lion Entertainment, Entourage, and Vista Insurance.Discover more content from IEN: https://immersiveexperience.network/articles/ Hosted on Acast.

Talk Back to MeThe Screwtape Letters, by C.S. Lewis presents the interaction between demons and humans from the point of view of a senior devil in Hell's administration. The novel consists of a series of letters from one Screwtape to Wormwood, who has been assigned to an unnamed human for the purpose of winning the poor man over to the clutches of the wicked. In the 17th Chapter, our senior devil speaks on the subject of Gluttony, pointing out that he should focus not on excess, but on refinement or Delicacy. In this episode, we trace how this form of Gluttony can be found in the Gun Culture, where we so often define ourselves by what we have. For some it comes in prideful amassing of a great horde, for others, it's in knowing oh so well the current trend but viewing ourselves as thus better than it. For others, and perhaps most caricatured, are those who hide behind displayed "taste" to deceive others into thinking they are something they indeed, are not. Use Code 2025deaddrop10 for 10% off your order at obsidianarms.comThis episode has been sponsored by Obsidian Arms, a manufacturer of tools, parts and firearms, as well as operating as an OEM shop for those looking to bring excellence to the market.

If you've spent any time in Christian Twitter circles over the past few years, you've probably come across the name Patriarchy Hannah. With her bold advocacy for traditional femininity, biblical patriarchy, and the "trad-wife" lifestyle, she built a following of nearly 30,000 people and positioned herself as a voice in the online push for Christian homemaking and submission. She claimed to be a devoted wife, married to a contractor named Tony, and a mother to 14 children. Her posts were filled with strong rebukes of modern feminism, encouragements for women to embrace submission, and even some sharp critiques of other Christian women in the public sphere. But as of this past week, everything about Patriarchy Hannah has unraveled. The account has been exposed as a fabrication, run not by a married mother of 14, but by a single, childless woman named Jennifer, a 37-year-old from Arkansas. A deep dive into public records, receipts, and past online activity revealed that her husband Tony doesn't exist, her family life was invented, and the house she claimed her husband built was actually constructed by a completely unrelated developer. Now, some are celebrating this revelation as proof that the entire online patriarchal movement is built on deception. They argue that "trad" influencers are cosplayers, and that many who follow them are ‘fetishists.'So, what does this all mean? To be sure, Patriarchy Hannah deceived many and has publicly apologized. But this does not mean that the goals of patriarchy and the trad-wife movement are illegitimate. If anything, it means that Christian women, and Christian men for that matter, need real-life discipleship in how to keep their homes, love their children, and submit to their husbands.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors. You can join our Patreon at https://patreon.com/rightresponseministries or you can donate at https://rightresponseministries.com/donate.As we have said before, sometimes you have to LARP before you can fly. Rather than disparaging the larpers, we should continue to extol godly femininity and all women who aspire to develop it. Tune in now with special guest Eric Conn as we set the record straight and defend the lost virtue of Christian femininity.*MINISTRY SPONSORS:**Private Family Banking*How to Connect with Private Family Banking:1.
