Gender and Sexuality (Performance Check 004)
Monday Sep 11, 2017
Monday Sep 11, 2017
In this episode of Performance Check, Jon and Emylie lead a panel discussion discussing the role of gender and sexuality in rpgs, and how to approach it
Performance Check is a monthly show focused on how to be better roleplayers. Some shows focus on skills to use at the table to make more interesting and memorable characters that shine. We'll also be interviewing players from Actual Play podcasts and Twitch streams, learning how they have crafted their characters and what we can learn from them. Performance Check isn't about mechanics or making the best build or the most technical character, it's about making a character that people remember and love for years to come

Songs in the Key of D&D (Tome 287)
Tuesday Sep 05, 2017
Tuesday Sep 05, 2017
In this episode Jeff and Sam sit down with Aaron Good to discuss Amy Vorpahl's new album, Songs in the Key of D&D. Their review and discussion is followed by an interview with Amy Vorpahl herself. The Tome Show is a family friendly show, but an editorial decision was made to leave in some explicit language, rather than bleep it out in editing - we hope it doesn't offend, but consider yourself warned!
