  • Awesome podcast by two established writers, and creators of Call of Cthulhu modules. I love the history of the game, sneak peaks at new up and coming books and game modules, and the Keeper (game master) tips!

  • Great gaming podcast!

    Seth Skorkowsky and Jon Hook must have decades of combined Roleplaying experience, particularly as GM/Keepers. Been watching/listening to these guys for a couple of years now on YouTube & MUP and it’s so cool to hear these two unified on MM sharing tips, stories, and writing up campaign ideas. Kickass!
