Hi, gang! Today's episode is me talking out some of my creative process for a zine I'd like to make for next year's ZineQuest initiative on Kickstarter. It's rambly. It's brambly. It's me on the couch with my phone. Me trying to remember the Space Vampire Choose Your Own Adventure.

Hi, friends! Today I look at a Buck Rogers adventure called Deimos Mandate and discuss what I think worked well in the module and what could be used for your own adventures in space. We've got giant space elevators and air duct passageways! What more could a boy of the 25th Century ask for?

Hey folks, our second episode is a "driving episode", aka a side-quest. I was on the road to a birthday celebration and had game jams on my mind. So join me as a wax unpoetic about the last couple of game jams I participated in, and the current one I'm mulling over. Apologies, as always, about the poor sound quality.
