Transcripts are available at diceexploder.com People talk a lot about how and whether RPGs emulate TV and movies, but this week cohost Meguey Baker (Apocalypse World, Under Hollow Hills) brings in a game that takes that sentiment to a compelling meta level. Fan Mail, from Primetime Adventures by Matt Wilson, is the core of the game's key metaphor: that players are simultaneously writers of a TV show, fans watching that show, and the characters portrayed on screen. We talk about the storygame scene in the early 2000s, how Primetime Adventures has influenced Meg's work, and how different this mechanic can feel in a one shot vs a full campaign. This game feels like a classic. I wish I'd known about it ten years ago.

The head of a biker gang, an enigmatic child, a gun-lugging southern belle, and a cult leader walk into a bar. Maybe that sounds like the set up to a joke to you, but the apocalypse made our world a joke longer ago than any of us can remember.  Announcing the Role Less Taken podcast's second season: Roulette, an actual play Apocalypse World campaign run by our MC Mike. Everything kicks off when Lemon Dufresne (Peri) rolls into the city of Roulette seeking local help to reclaim an old family biscuit recipe. She hires Beatrice "Bear" Samuels (Megan), “the VP” His Holiness Lord Roadkill (a cat), and the Vultures bike gang, as well as the Happy Little People and their PBS-fueled leading artist Ross Roberts (Tom), and a quiet, unaffiliated young boy known only as Finch (Grahame) to come with her to the agricultural town of Source. But here, after the end of the world, it's the people who keep the most secrets that you can probably trust. ---- Game System: Apocalypse World by D.
