Rachel Bruner, designer of Harsh Shadows, talks about how to create print-n-play games and the many reasons why you might want to.
Rachel is super active in the PnP community, and we discuss her thoughts on best practices, tools of the trade, getting a PnP game published, and more.
And here are all the links and whatnot that were discussed on the show:

This is part two of Jason's interview with Andrew Navaro and Andrew Fisher of Earthborne Games. In this episode, we get into some Good Trouble, only this time Andrew Navaro aims to help people think twice about how we produce our games. For the sake of the environment and for the sake of inspiring local employment and entrepreneurship, we would benefit greatly from local production and distribution. Andrew gets into the weeds of the current state of sustainable production, vision for the future, and much more.

In episode 53, The Lords begin by talking about their recent cinematic Alien Role Playing Game session and discuss the system and boxed adventure structure. Then the gang takes a question from a listener asking which we like better, pure Cyberpunk like Cyberpunk Red or Shadowrun with magic and fantasy races in the mix. Finally, Jamie, Bender, Jess and Jesko discuss the tone of a campaign and how that can affect the mood and enjoyment of the players.
Hey, we have a quick announcement about taking 2 shows off during August but we well be back on September 8th. Thank you everyone!

The crushing burden of Masterpiece Theatre is having a toll. I had an attitude problem, but then I took a timeout, and I thought about what I did. The success of the Fast and/or Furious movies is undeniable--business-wise, this all seems like appropriate business--but at what cost? I went to the stock market today. I did a business. SVWAG is most emphatically not children stacked together wearing a trenchcoat. Would you like a alcohol?

The African Board Gaming Convention is a pan-African event that brings many people together from all over Africa and beyond to play games, celebrate games, and spread the word about a growing, local gaming scene. Oluwafemi Olusanya (or Femi) joins the show to share his boundless enthusiasm for sharing games and spreading the word about this fifth installment of AB Con. At the time of recording, they were working on a stretch goal to get Eric Lang to make an appearance and help out local designers. If we are truly into the work of diversity and inclusion in our games, this is it! Femi's doing the work, so I am happy to support and lift his voice for everyone listening and watching.

In this wobbly 150th episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, a freshly-jabbed Tom and perfectly off-kilter Matt are ready to tell YOU about SOME GAMES!
Matt regales us with the story of him crushing my space station in Star Scrappers:Orbital! We pretend to know all about wargames with Freedom! Tom rambles about his UKGE adventures in a smushed up-special!
And before you listen to this most excellent podcast, dear listener; a fun tidbit. We were going to do a big chunky roundup of all the exciting things Tom saw at UKGE, but so much of it was sufficiently interesting or strange that we’re going to save it for future, more in-depth coverage. Stay tuned for some opinions, and some hot, hot games!
