Rollin' Bones is now weekly! With that said, I have no guest this week so here's an unscripted rant about group dynamics in TTRPGs.  

I reunite with a member of my very first gaming group, the eccentric and always fun Austin Aycoth, to discuss off-the-wall character creations and stories of RPG triumph and tragedy.  Theme Song:  "Rumblin'" Trey VanZandt (YouTube.com/c/treyvanzandt) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License  

I sit down and talk to Tim Mathias, an independent fantasy author and the host of the Knights and Nerds podcast.  Theme Song:  "Rumblin'" Trey VanZandt (YouTube.com/c/treyvanzandt) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License
