This week, we kick things off with the return of Space Karen's meltdown tour: Elon Musk got flustered in an interview, sputtered out one-word answers, and called the journalist an “NPC,” which is rich coming from the guy whose only real upgrade since PayPal is yelling “freedom” in meme fonts. Meanwhile, 23andMe sold your DNA to Regeneron at a bankruptcy auction, proving once and for all that your spit is more valuable than most tech startups.IN THE NEWS is a parade of corporate idiocy and dystopian fuckery. Coinbase employees got bribed into leaking user data (because clearly we didn't have enough crypto chaos), Klarna keeps flip-flopping between AI and human workers like it's a bad Tinder date, and OpenAI is out here buying Jony Ive's design firm for $6.5 billion because sure, what's another billion when you're trying to build a surveillance device to stalk 100 million users? Meanwhile, the Chicago Sun-Times is publishing AI-generated trash with imaginary authors, Anthropic's new model attempts blackmail, and researchers dumped two billion Discord messages online just for kicks. And yes, Elon's Tesla robotaxis will now only roam the safest parts of Austin, which is code for “we still can't make this thing turn left.”In MEDIA CANDY, we're watching Murderbot, Godfather of Harlem, and Hotel Cocaine because who doesn't love a little synthetic assassin, crime drama, and coke-fueled nostalgia? Notepad.exe now writes for you (and probably files HR complaints too), and Audible is teaming up with publishers to replace narrators with robot voices. Yay, progress. Over in THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, Bittner brings the malware, monsters, and a new theme park review that's somehow less terrifying than the news. Bookworms, don't miss Curepedia and The AI Con — one's about goth gods, the other's about taking down our techno-overlords.

The visceral action in this game and the technical gameplay is unlike anything else out there. The chain shield, the shotgun, the skullcrusher and more make for an epic game with a gorgeous world.Elder Scrolls Oblivion got a full remaster. Travel back in time to the 2006 RPG from Bethesda and play the game in 4K 60FPS graphics with a lot of new enhancements to the UI, NPC's and more. Austin shares his review of this beloved title.Wildgate is a new game coming later this year from Dreamhaven, former Blizzard devs. We got a chance to play the community preview and it was way better than we expected. We had a blast commanding our ship with our crew, collecting loot in the procedurally generated world. Once we felt good with our loot, we engaged in combat with other ships to win either by eliminating all enemy ships or finding the artifact and existing the Wildgate. We had a good time and can't wait for the full release on this one!In the news, we talk about Nintendo Switch 2's new EULA that seems to say they can brick your console if they find you doing something they deem resulting in piracy or unauthorized modification.

In this conversation, Cheryl McColgan shares her journey of preparing for a NPC Fit Model bodybuilding competition at the age of 52. This episode is in vlog format and best viewed on YouTube although it's still being released as an audio podcast. She discusses her training regimen, nutritional strategies, and the mental challenges she faces throughout the process. Cheryl emphasizes the importance of protein intake, understanding ketosis, and the role of supplements in her routine. She also reflects on her daily activities, meal preparations, and the significance of maintaining a healthy body fat percentage while training for the fit model competition. Takeaways Challenging oneself can lead to personal growth. Nutrition plays a crucial role in competition prep. Understanding individual carbohydrate needs is essential. Daily routines can help manage energy levels during prep. Supplementation can enhance performance and recovery. Protein intake should be prioritized for muscle synthesis. Meal prep can simplify tracking macros. Finding enjoyable foods can make dieting easier. Maintaining a healthy body fat percentage is important for women. It's important to listen to your body during training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWat2qgDcsE Episode Transcript New NPC Fit Model Division Cheryl McColgan (00:00.504)So I'm back a little later in the day here getting ready to make my dinner, but I realized when I started editing the video that I did not really set this up very well. So I wanna put this at the beginning. I am sharing with you a day in what I've been doing for the last almost 10 weeks now. And that is training, eating, losing fat for possibly competing in the fit model category in the NPC. When I thought about this in the, well first of all, thinking about doing this at age 52 is quite daunting, never having been stepped on stage before in a bodybuilding competition. But if you wanna learn more about that thought process, I have another podcast that I did on that and I'll link that down below. But basically, I'm still not 100 % certain that I'm. to do it, but I've been training, eating, doing fat loss for last 10 weeks as if I am definitely going to do it. So it's just a little scary and that's the only reason I'm thinking about not doing it. I think it'll be fun in a lot of ways. I think it would be a great experience and I'm all about challenging myself and putting myself out of my comfort zone. So that's why I started it. anyway, so this is kind of just my day, how I've been training, how I've been eating, bio hacks that I do, supplements that I use, all that kind of good stuff that will all be here in the video. Yeah, I don't normally do vlogs, so this is totally new format for me, but hopefully you'll find it helpful or somewhat entertaining or maybe while you're trying to get through your cardio, you'll be watching this video, which is how I've been getting through a lot of my things that I've been doing over the last several weeks, listening to podcasts, watching videos, watching other people talk about their preps and things like that. Cheryl McColgan (01:55.946)So without further ado, let's move on to my day. Hey everyone, good morning. This is going to be a totally different kind of video for me. I've never done one of these before, but I thought I would take you through a day in the life of prep. So you can see a little bit what it's more about, get some of my feelings on it. Yesterday was a particularly difficult day. So we made it through, woke up this morning. Actually, the first thing I do in the morning that I did not video is get on the scale because that's what you do you're tracking and I… this morning, so despite yesterday being an awful day, we did have progress, at least in the sense of what the goal is right now, is moving that body fat down. So now, I'm just going to make some coffee, do some fasting cardio,

With the information they need secured, the adventurers sent by the Hundred Burroughs begin to gather together and make their final survey of Perpetua's western continent before returning east. But some of the most dangerous creatures (and people) are yet to be discovered.  This week on Friends at the Table: Perpetua Prelude 06 PERPETUA PRELUDE - GUIDE Random Encounters - [PPRE] If you've reached the world map, you know that during travel there's always a chance of hitting a “Journey Event” (aka a random encounter if you're using regular words). Most of these are just fights against the enemies tied to that area (go to ‘Enemy Locations [PPEL]' for more on that), but there's a low percentage chance that you'll get either an NPC dialog encounter, a mini-location/dungeon, or a special fight that's different than the normal enemy ones. We haven't figured out all of these yet, so make sure to add any you find on the pinned post on the forum! Dog Chase [REDL]: I don't know why it's called this given that it isn't really a dog at all, BUT it is really a chase. If you're trying to trigger this event, try to stay near the plains or hills, and MAKE SURE your party is led by someone with high Dex so that you have a good shot of succeeding. Hexcloak Interrogation [REHC]: This can happen even before you make it to their secret base. There are a TON of random questions they can ask you, and I'm still working on building a guide for all the answers. The short version is that you should always choose the options that admit that you're a little bit guilty of something. If you try to plead innocence, it'll turn into a fight EVEN IF YOU ARE INNOCENT! But if you tell them you're a little guilty, you can get out of the encounter with just a bribe or even scott free. BTW: Arley cannot trigger this event, maybe because he's an elf! The Clock Tolls [REGC]: At the end of every week when traveling near Grand Sonnerie, the bell attached to that big clock they have rings, and there's a random buff or debuff applied to your WHOLE PARTY. You can get various elemental resistances or weaknesses, debuffs like enraged or confused, or even major boons like being fully healed. Be careful though because there's a really small chance that one of your party members will just die.

Y'all have either read or watched the Wheel of Time series, by Robert Jordan/Brandon Sanderson, right (I highly recommend the books, but I understand if reading 15,000 pages of description isn't your thing.  The show started out ok, and it has grown on me, you should give it another try)?  You know how the Children of the Light, the paramilitary group informally known as the Whitecloaks.  They have an embedded group dedicated to rooting out the darkness.  That group is called the Questioners and they are loosely modeled after the Spanish Inquisition that was created by Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile in the year of our lord (As Tiler would say) 1478.  The Questioners do just that; put people to the question, and through various methods extract a confession out the subject of their ire. Most of the time their confessions are from the innocent who are simply trying to end the torture.  I never understood how can the Whitecloaks even do this when their ranks are filled with Darkfriends. It's a shameful organization considering how easily they were infiltrated, and how quickly their hypocrisy was found out.  Yet they do play an important role in the story, even if the the whole Two Rivers arc was drawn out over three books. The one thing Whitecloaks do is put people to the question. The Phantom Phinders do the same in this episode.   Thank you for attending my TED Talk   ~Mark     Make sure to rate and review us on iTunes and then reach out on Twitter or to our email to get an NPC named in Carrefour!

We rip open Pathfinder 2E's NPC Core like a loot chest at midnight—all killer, no filler, just gun-wielding witches, charming villains, and side characters spicy enough to steal the spotlight (and maybe your party's gold). #Pathfinder2E, #NPCCoreRules, #PF2GMFuel NPC Core (affiliate link) Show Notes In this episode, the RPGBOT crew opens up Pathfinder 2E's NPC Core and immediately gets lost in the endless possibilities of building bartenders who could solo a dragon and criminals with the fashion sense of a runway model. They dig into the  shockingly well-organized stat blocks, and the book's philosophy of making every town guard, blacksmith, or shady fence into a potential campaign highlight. The hosts explore how NPCs are no longer just glorified exposition dumpers or sacrificial goblin #3—they're diplomats, villains, witches with guns (yes, that's a thing), and essential storytelling tools that add flavor and chaos to any scene. Need someone to warn your party that they're about to die horribly? The NPC Core has a stat block for that. Want a non-combatant spy with more plot hooks than a pirate ship? It's in there too. They highlight how the book helps GMs create NPCs that aren't just throwaway extras but fully customizable agents of drama, comedy, or world-ending terror. From themed spell lists to the new relationship subsystem (think: dating sims, but with more stabbing), the crew dives into mechanics and storytelling tricks that make your NPCs actually matter. The episode crescendos in a live-build exercise where the hosts create an unforgettable NPC—part crime boss, part matchmaker, all chaos—and demonstrate how NPC Core can help any GM bring wild new energy to the table. Key Takeaways Monster Hunter Wilds: Yes, it influenced this book, and no, you don't need a 12-foot greatsword to enjoy it. Organized, Beautifully: Stat blocks so clean, you'll cry tears of efficiency. Non-Combatant, Not Non-Important: Some of the best NPCs don't fight—they ruin lives socially. Custom Archetypes Galore: Build a frogfolk librarian who also moonlights as a necromancer. No one can stop you. Gun Witch: Just... gun witch. You're welcome. Villains with Vibes: Give your BBEG a tragic backstory, a fashion-forward cloak, and a snarky catchphrase. Diplomacy is OP: Talking your way through an ambush is now a viable strategy—unless the dice hate you. Magical Shenanigans: Spells aren't just for combat—use them to cook, sneak, charm, or fake your own death for tax reasons. Advanced Relationship Mechanics: Because your players will romance the bartender, and now there's a chart for that. Sample Organizations: Pre-built groups so your GM notes don't look like the scribbles of a sleep-deprived conspiracy theorist. Themed Spell Lists: Pre-curated magic menus for fast flavor and fewer tears. NPC Advancement: Level up your innkeeper until they're ready for the final boss fight. The Connection Subsystem: Build emotional bonds, tragic betrayals, and passive-aggressive tea parties.
