I stumbled upon this podcast when the Alien RPG came out. However, I went back to the beginning and have found a wealth of great information and content. Every episode is packed with the right amount of banter and discussion. Keep up the great work!!!
Two dudes who has been in the RPG world for a long time share thoughts, GM advice, Coriolis and Alien lore. They have nice interesting guests and LOVE Free League RPGs.
Entertaining and engaging hosts that despite being self proclaimed Free League shills are a fantastic source of general rpg information and news. I do blame their Year Zero enthusiasm for my increasing collection of Free League products that I rarely play due to my apathy towards the Year Zero Engine.
After years of playing heroic fantasy RPGs I was looking for something else, and then I discovered Free League's wonderful suite of RPGs. Then I went looking for content to support this newfound thirst. I was lucky enough to discover the Effekt podcast, two brits talking about Free League games, but also other games and themes relating to this wonderful hobby.

As someone who returned to RPG recently, from discovering the deep joy of the AlienRPG, these guys run an informative and fun magazine show discussing many aspects of the RPG scene. There amusing banter filled episodes are a great way (back) into the RPG world in addition, they raise and discuss many aspects of RPG including game design and what’s new in the industry. Highly Recommend.
