#123 – Palladium Fantasy 4-5 Northern Wilderness Adventures

In recognition of this year being the 40th anniversary of the Palladium Fantasy RPG, we're dedicating our next few episodes to taking a look at the rest of the original line-up of first edition fantasy world books. In this one we cover two of them at once, as books 4 and 5 were both slim enough and covered related content. Join us as we chat excitedly over how awesome the Northern Wilderness is, and then join us on Discord to share your own favorite gaming memories in this realm!

#122 – Our Favorite OCCs

In response to another listener request, we spend this episode talking about our personal favorite OCCs in Rifts and a few other Palladium properties as well. This is probably a topic we will revisit multiple times down the line as we do this show, re-reading the hundreds of books we have still yet to even mention, let alone review. Thanks for the topic suggestion, friends!

#120 – Rifts Manhunter

We're back from a life break to release more fun discussion on Palladium's gmaes, yay!

This sleeper and oft-forgotten title from the early 90s somehow managed to completely blow our minds. Give this a listen and then stop by our Discord to share your thoughts on it!
