We talked about quite a few products in this episode: Favorite Publishers: Cam Banks and Jamie Chambers from Margaret Weis... |
| BG-Review008-ENnies Reviews! | 08/12/2008 | Warm-Up: Each time we record, we watch a video or find a picture to get us in the mood for the episode. It doesn’t always have anything to do with the episode, but frames our minds, so we’re going to share so you can be appropriately framed as well. Listened to a couple of songs-... | |

| BG - Sode 017 - Bonus02 - Gaming at Cons | 57:49 | 06/29/2008 | This is a Bonus Episode which is fancy talk for “The dogs ate the shownotes so we can’t do our normal episode so we totally wung this”. Is wung a word? Winged? In this episode we discuss Gaming at Conventions. Well, that and a LOT of just banter. (This is what we’re like... |

| BG-Review005-Faery’s Tale | 15:00 | 06/17/2008 | In our 3rd full Origin’s Review, we look at Firefly Games’ Faery’s Tale Deluxe. We had a lot of issues with this book. I feel it works as a structured “let’s pretend” for kids, but the concept wasn’t clear. To say that this could be for adults misses the... |
| BG-Review004-Savage World of Solomon Kane | 17:46 | 06/16/2008 | In the second full Origin’s review episode, we take a look at the Savage World of Solomon Kane. http://www.peginc.com/games.html We love this one and hope it wins the Origin’s Award for best new RPG.
