Xenu Sez, Episode 4: Pen And paper RPGs

In today's episode, Xenu discusses pen and paper RPGs.

He covers the overall premise of such games, discusses the various types and genres available, and shares some of his own experiences with gaming.

He has also included some questions at the end that would make for some great comments and emails.

Come on....we know there's a few of you listeners out there. We want to hear from you!

Xenu Sez: Episode 4

NOTES:

- There is a lot of information on the web about gaming and if you would like to know more I would recommend the following:
-Have Games, Will Travel - my favorite podcast about board, card, and RPG gaming, hosted by Paul Tevis. He's been at this much longer than we have, so if you're interested, click through the shows to hear about some games that you may like.
-A Fistful of Games - Paul Tevis' blog (note the theme with his titles) about gaming, for those of us who really enjoy geeking out about games and reading about others doing the same. This site also has some great links to other gamers and resources about games.
-BoardGameGeek - The best gaming database and fan community on the internet.

Reggie and Calvin: A New Voice

See?

I told you we'd be back.

A little later than I expected, true, but we're here.

This episode marks the first of a three part introductory series of our ongoing...most likely never ending...series of Star Wars discussions.

You should be able to tell what we're doing, but just in case, Calvin, myself, Xenu, and Cal's brother, Abe, are playing a game of euchre using Star Wars cards. The characters on those cards are used as the starting point for our discussions.

Don't know what euchre is?

Move to Michigan.

ENJOY!
