Friends- "The Game Group Spoketh" is a new podcasting addition to the 20SG lineup, fitting nicely alongside our regular episodes and "Friendcasts". As many of you know, I've had a fairly consistent game group since 2009, when I first met Brian (@nuklearangel on Instagram) that summer. Since that point, Brian and I have gone through many iterations of our Tuesday club, with people coming in and out for a variety of reasons. These episodes are dedicated to exploring different topics related to game clubs, whether they are focused on board games, roleplaying games, and tabletop miniatures games. Each episode will ONLY consist of members of the Tuesday night group, with some familiar names you may have heard on the show- Scott, Chris, Mike, Brian, and Kelly. On this episode, the group will focus on the question of game clubs themselves- what makes them "good"? What are the characteristics that make a club worth attending on a weekly basis? In the case of Brian and I, we've consistently gamed for over 15 years together. I hope you enjoy the banter, camaraderie, and everything in between throughout this episode. More to come in the future!

Friends- please enjoy my chat with Steve Kling from the Historical Game Company, LLC. Steve was an absolute delight to have on the show. Not only is he an accomplished lawyer, but he is also a magnificent game designer (link below), an author and historian in every sense of the word, the subject of a documentary on warfare around St Louis during the American Revolution, and a multi-time moderator of a successful conference on the American Revolution. He was a warm, intelligent, personable guest- please enjoy the episode!

When Kelly told me about the fact he was working alongside historian Todd Braisted, I used my overlord type power to demand an interview! Thankfully, Kelly obliged. If you like history and the kind of research that goes into putting together a scenario or oob, this is the episode for you! See Todd's bio below. Enjoy the episode!!!
