Audio Only Version Below One has to wonder how G2B consistently gets so many of the gaming industry's most interesting people to interview. Some think it is due to the Gutter Geek's reputation as some of the best interviewers in the business. Most likely though it's the free beer. Today we have a couple of the most amazing interviews we have ever done. Part1:The gang chats with David "Zeb" CookWhen you talk with “Zeb” Cook you have to bring in a few friends who would love to chat with him, Larry, Christopher and Michael. Did I mention we were super excited to have Zeb on the show.David "Zeb" Cook is a very former designer from the heyday of TSR in the 80's and 90's, responsible for 2E AD&D, Oriental Adventures, Planescape and more., He transitioned to video games in the 90's and worked n more stuff like Fallout 2, City of Villains, and Elder Scrolls Online. He is now transitioning to retirement.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/David-Zeb-CookWiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Cook_(game_designer)Part 2:G2B gets Tom Wham on his first podcast ever. So who is Tom Wham? He's been a game designer his entire life. He is listed as TSR's 13th employee, so he was there pretty much from the very beginning of it all.This is an interview to check out for sure.Web: http://www.tomwham.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tom.wham.5

Zeb Cook's RPG design history includes such important highlights as the “Expert” portion of B/X D&D, AD&D 2nd Edition, Oriental Adventures, Planescape, Star Frontiers, and more! He's also had career highlights in video games including City of Villains, Fallout 2, and The Elder Scrolls Online. Did you know AD&D 2nd Edition had a significant playtest effort (and why wasn't the armor class system changed then)? Whose idea was it to have the first wilderness adventure, why were there dinosaurs in The Isle of Dread, and why was it set on an island? Crashing on Gary Gygax's couch. What strange business venture did TSR make that had Zeb in stitches? Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #243 - 7/1/2021 Like what you hear?

Series 1, episode 18: I tie myself to the mast in an attempt to weather the Twitter storm surrounding orcs, Tolkien and Oriental Adventures, and ponder how to restore nuance to the discourse and avoid giving in to the politicisation of social gaming. I also answer some calls on death in RPGs and the fiddly bits of combat from Che of Roleplay Rescue and Jason of Nerds RPG Variety Cast.

Alternate Title: The Honor Roll! (Get it?)For this week's episode, Llewyn takes us into the world of the Oriental Adventures, and tells us all about how this alternate Dungeons and Dragons supplement changed everything.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/dungeonpedia)
We start off with Hambone's experience playing the classic fantasy themed board game Talisman for the first time. He played the recent fourth edition from Fantasy Flight. Did you know there was an unofficial 1.5 edition of Dungeons & Dragons? There was! Beginning with Unearthed Arcana and following through Oriental Adventures, Dungeoneer's Survival Guide and the Wilderness Survival Guide, it was partly a natural evolution of the system, partly a desperate attempt to save the company from financial ruin. Stu walks us through the history. Finally, we started playing Pendragon and we chat about character creation and the first introductory session. (Stu never explicitly states it, but the tedious bit was not the character creation itself, but rather working through the family histories).
It's Part 2 of our Oriental Adventures deep dive and on today's episode we feature an interview I first ran on the Roll For Initiative podcast, episode 131. Big thanks to Vincent Florio and the rest of the RFI team for letting me re-air this amazing interview with freelance game designer, Deborah Teramis Christian in which she talks about her work writing on the Kara-Tur Box-set!
So Grasshopper, do you run your AD&D using Oriental Adventures and want to incorporate the martial arts system but feel that as written it could unbalance your game? Maybe you just want to know more about the feel of of an OE campaign. Well in today's episode I take us on a trip in the way-back machine to 2013 when I was still co-hosting on the hugely popular Roll For Initiative podcast, to let you hear the discussion I had with RFI DM's, Vince, Matt and Nick in which we dive deep into the waters of TSR's martial arts system for 1st edition AD&D. If you like what you hear then head over to rfipodcast.com to check out all the other great episodes from Roll For Initiative. And stay tuned for Part 2 where we listen in on another great Roll For Initiative episode featuring my interview with Deborah Teramis Christian, co-writer of the classic Kara-Tur box set! Now settle down on the tatami mat as we fill your cup and unlock the way of the master!
Few game designers can claim such a prolific body of work as David "Zeb" Cook! His many projects include such iconic TSR modules as, Slavepits of the Undercity, Dwellers of the Forbidden Kingdom, The Isle of Dread and The Veiled Society. His work on game systems boasts the Expert Set which he created alongside Tom Moldvay, Oriental Adventures and the acclaimed Planescape system. And he took gamers into the farthest reaches of space with the classic scifi game, Star Frontiers. Now Zeb sits down with the Dead Games Society to talk about many of these projects in what is one of our best episodes yet. So grab a drink, find your comfy chair and have a listen as Zeb takes us through these and many more projects from his career!
