Amazing story really brought me back to childhood in the 90s

Jospeh’s A Room with a Parallax View is surreal, thought provoking, and haunting. Haunting as a David Lynch film. Ever present, but answers are just out of reach. From the cold open, to players playing two characters, I knew “It is happening again”, but I don’t know what “it” is. This episode is a masterpiece.
Here and Mystery Quest are my go to RPG podcasts. Perfect for sitting and doing hobby to.
Always look forwards with relish to this one. Easily one of the best actual play pods out there!!
